I used K3b for that. It can copy to image and even ignore errors if necessary, though I didn't yet have to try that. It's 8.5GB per disc, so get some 2TB HDD for that.
the so-called Chromebook Challenge includes students sticking things into Chromebook ports to short-circuit the system.
I am rather surprised that works. I thought any modern device would have overload protection in place. I think I even remember accidentally tripping it on some device, but it would just reset after reboot.
I also tried to see the max output current of my previous phone this way. Load it up till the protection trips. Result: Stable up to 2.1A, tripped at 2.5A.
Oh, yeah. A Xiaomi phone charger I have also shuts down if I either overload it or immediately load it near max rating rather than gradually increase the load.
It isn't normal to get emotionally attached to AI (of this kind at least, in case we get something more advanced in the future). And an especially bad idea if it isn't self-hosted, since it can vanish or get paywalled anytime.
And what does that achieve? Nothing. It's just revenge which is useless. If it's an easy way out, so be it. It's also an easy way away from others.
Not sure about death penalty, but having access to euthanasia both inside and outside prison feels like a better solution. Outside first, you don't want people commiting crimes just to access euthanasia.
Well, perhaps not Monero, and perhaps not a loaf of bread either, but also not far from that. One large e-shop in Slovakia I use (Alza) supports crypto payments via Confirmo (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, SOL, POL, LTC, TRX). They sell mostly electronics, but also some food items.
I mean, most likely any pirated ZX Spectrum software on old audio cassettes will work.
