I have no idea how you get anti-immigration and anti-islam sentiments to "I need to kill some random people by driving into a christmas market". Then again, right-wingers, who knows what's going on in those heads…

I've gotten used to this. The posts where I write several paragraphs and go kinda in-depth on a topic, and even do some research in the background on to make sure I don't talk complete nonsese routinely get no upvotes at all. The ones that rise to the top are snippy one-liner remarks that get a cheap laugh out of people, but honestly don't add anything of substance to the discussion.

S-ATA still is the only way to have more than two drives in the system.

IMHO, it was a mistake to make USB block storage use the same line of names also used for local hard disks. Sure, the block device drivers for USB mass storage internally hook into the SCSI subsystem to provide block level access, and that's why the drives are called sd[something], but why should I as an end user have to care about that? A USB drive is very much not the same thing for me as a SCSI harddisk. A NVMe drive on the other hand, kinda sorta is, at least from a practical purpose point of view, yet NVMe drives get a completely different naming scheme.

That aside, suggest you use lsblk before dd.

It's been pointed in several places already, but: That's not the guy. The one in the surveillance camera footage had a jacket without these high front pockets.

The last Windows I installed was Windows 10. I was trying to install onto a SATA SSD, while keeping my pre-existing Linux installation on the M.2 SSD intact. This took me an unreasonably long time and lots of failed attempts, and in the end, the only way I could find to make it work was to first physically remove the M.2, then install Windows, then add the M.2 back again. Which sucked a lot, because M.2s are really not optimized for easy or frequent installation and deinstallation.

The only label on the map that's both on Latin and in old German.

Because after moving very slowly and steadily for just about forever, the other galaxies will suddenly make a jump of like ten thousandth of a degree.

Imagine the following:

You actually can stop the time by snapping you fingers, but it stops time for the entire universe, including yourself, with the exception of one single observer on some unimportant planet in the Andromeda galaxy. After 100 years from the POV of that observer, time resumes again.

Would you even be able to tell?

Is OpenBSD seriously still using CVS for development?

And "nothing" does not fit, either.

I can see it going both ways. Talking about execution times, this would be an exaggeration, but then, these memes always are.

Attempted electrical substation sabotage is an easy way to fix your loneliness forever. And also all of your other problems.

The actual aluminium that people work with in actual real life are also alloys.

How about when they say "a phenomena"?

To be fair, speed is relative.

Sure, but the relevant speed up there is relative to the air around you. The missile will have a negative air speed at first, than accelerate to positive, briefly passing through 0 in between, which comes with weird consequences for lift and steering.

How is that supposed to remove lead and mercury from the food supply? If you use that as fertilizer, the heavy metals will still be in there, and likely get picked up by your crops…

Anyone got a non-paywalled version?

After googling around for a bit, and then switching to duckduckgo instead (Google becomes aggressively unhelpful as soon as you have words like "ejaculated" in your query. Duckduckgo does the same thing, just not quite so much.), it seems the book in question might be "The tenant of Wildfell Hall" by Emily Brontë.

Rimworld for me.

(I have never tried Dwarf Fortress.)

Honorable mention goes to War Thunder, while it isn't on of my favorites, I was still a bit blown away to find out it runs natively on Linux.
