hehe, I used in my college classes, at Technical University of Moldova, my teacher was a bit on the fence about it (he was demanding Matlab, but the uni wasn't providing any licenses), but he reluctantly agreed to it. Worked pretty fin

Yeah, i remember being prescribed ampicillin and aspirin for every cold, as a child. They didn't care, they only wanted to "do something". I remember in highschool having a colleague who's overprotective mother was also

In my case, medicine and diet had little effect. And I was in pretty bad shape, i got to the emergency room several times a week with awful abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation. A different doctor adviced me to eat anything I want, but fo

I also lost access to a previous gmail account - I changed my password with a random generated one, and god (and a google engineer) knows why, I lost access. No amount of appealing would return my access, even if I was wiling to show my nat

Don't they already use MySQL for example? I don't think it would stop them in any way, unless some lawyers had some really antiquated views, coming straight from the 90's

Probably because of different alloys used, different thickness. You don't expect a commercial ship to be shot at with missiles.

There is only one reason for me to use it: as a historical reenactor, I strive to make my equipment as accurately as possible, and I read various articles regarding roman military food, how widespread were certain metal alloys, how they use

The thing with the sodium was debunked like a hundred times already, how long is this myth gonna last? Beside a temporary spike in blood pressure, there is nothing wrong with eating salt. https://medium.com/@drjasonfung&#x2F

Coffee and tea helps me in such cases. Plain, no sugar, no milk. Brushing your teeth can also reduce hunger. Also, try to take it gradually - I don't eat at all on Wednesdays, making a ease-in and an ease-out -the diner the night befor

I have some personal anecdotes that support this to some degree - I have dermatitis, and acne on my forearms - the longer I fast, the less acne I have, and my dermatitis recedes. The effects are very visible, and quite quick, 2 days of fast

Heh. It takes 10-12 hours to get from Cluj to Bucharest by train, and that's less than 500km.

There's a lot more to Transnistria. Russia wants it as a strategic point of access to Europe. There are roads purposely build for quick access with tanks (big, heavy, concrete roads, reinforced with rebar - your car usually makes a clu

Unless is a separate topic, I think there's a confusion here. When Moldavia is mentioned, they mean the historical region Moldavia, part of the Romania. We normally refer to that Moldova (that the parent is talking about) either as &qu

Are you saying that this doesn't already exist? There are tons of people selling passwords, profiles, credit cards info, social security numbers et cetera. Or are you trying to say that legit companies will begin doing that? Aren'

Ah, it comes a bit later, at 19:00 - "At that point people who are angry, mistrustful, and may not understand a thing about computers will regulate your industry into the ground. You'll be left like those poor saps who work in the

I'm afraid the incentives are not there - and we won't do any of those things - but at some point the system will bounce back, and hopefully it will self-regulate, rather than spiraling out of control. You can already see it happe

Try Lineage on a phone with F-Droid as your app repo: much more trustable - though not completely, plenty of blobs floating around, the modem OS, and is safe to assume there are non-public bugs out there. Also, none of the crappy preinstall

Doesn't anybody do shit on their laptop anymore or on their own server? Why does it have to be 10 thousand services, why the dependency on the network and other entities? How many of these will go bankrupt by the end of the year, how m

They also had great chemists and physicists. Many of them were awarded nobel prizes, so you can look it up.

Oh, I just took a shotgun cartridge (the one used for hunting, but the old kind, made completely out of brass), flipped in with the primer up, and hit it with a hammer. Good thing my father stored those ones without the lead. The bang and f

What if that computer is running something critical, say a reactor, and elevator or some device in a hospital? Computers are everywhere these days... Todays proof-of-concept becomes tommorow's metasploit module - and could cause large

The source code won't give you shit. Even if you have it all, right here, right now: 1. you cannot disable it completely - there's an image of Intel ME, burned into the chipset, which checks for the presence of the ME + AMT in the

It's good to note that you still have mysterious chunks of blobs with newer laptops (including the purism one), also thanks to Intel - that's Intel FSP, that does the initialization for the processor and the memory. Second, all sy

It will most likely be a USB-like connection; HSIC, I suppose. BTW, this is the condition that all Replicant phones have to meet in order to be ported to it. So quite a lot of phones already have such an architecture.
