No. Not like that.

carving into it only means hwe’ll have to pay more to fix the marble when the time comes

Correct a small mistake

https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/12/08/569394885/pentagon-announces-first-ever-audit-of-the-department-of-defense

The decision to audit the Pentagon was made back in 2010. Obama did try to audit it, but Congress gave the Pentagon another 7 years to get their shit together. Trump didn’t do anything, except be president when that audit was scheduled (7 years earlier, mind you) to run.

See, the problem with you maga types, is you just lick up the dribble coming from trump’s dirty diaper, and assume that since he insists that it is really chocolate, and it’s brown like chocolate, it must be chocolate, and everyone who isn’t eating the president’s free chocolate must be an idiot because it’s obviously free chocolate coming from the most amazing president who keeps runny chocolate in his diaper.

I don’t really blame you though, in the same way I don’t blame a victim of a carnival conman. The conman is the criminal doing something wrong, the marks are just too fucking naive to understand the con, and it’s really fucking disappointing to watch a long line of people lose their money to the same conman, doing the same trick while openly laughing with his buddies about how stupid you all are.

That’s some North Korea shit.

That’s worse than North Korea shit. Say what you want about Kim, but he at least would have strapped that scummy contractor to a cannon rather than give him a few million dollars.

Not really. Most computers are sold off a shelf at a big box store, pre-configured and ready to go. The license for windows is flashed onto the hardware, so the staff doesn’t really have a way to remove it from the computer.

Hah, you think it’s 15.99 a month…

This is wild to hear? What year(s) are we talking on these Asus laptops? Everything Asus I’ve bought has been rock solid, and I go out of my way to get their hardware. I haven’t really bought any new systems or components in about 5 years though…

The residents need to work on an election that exempts anyone who doesn’t come out against this bill from being in the government.

And Amazon makes about 2500 dollars every second. If we taxed them at my tax rate, that would be ~1000 dollars a second. So every minute that Amazon is taxed at the same rate as the rest of us would pay for services for a homeless person. There are ~180,000 homelsee people in CA, we could pay for 60 of them in an hour, 1440 a day, and all of them in 125 days. From taxing one company’s current profits at the same rate that the rest of us are taxed.

Tax. The. Rich.

Well, considering it’s damn near 100% of the environment, I’d say anyone who doesn’t work with Windows isn’t really an IT admin.

I’ve been looking for jobs to get started in Linux administration, and I gotta tell you, the handful of times I see it mentioned is as a single line in the footer of the job posting.

Pay for it twice actually, Microsoft charges you to install that spyware on your computer as well.

The things you mentioned probably aren’t the problem. It’s not hard or expensive to setup secure remote access for systems.

The real problem is that a lot of this very expensive and very specific infrastructure equipment is also very old, and frequently does not support newer and more secure protocols.

Source : I’ve been trying to get gas generators to fire off email alerts using modern authentication with conditional access for about a week now.

But was there ever any proof these weren’t just actual fishing boats?

The proof would have been capturing a boat full of cocaine. Hard to do that when it’s blown to bits and scattered across the bottom of the ocean.

Even if we knew the boats were full of cocaine, the penalty for smuggling drugs into the US is not death. And even if the penalty was death, it would (or rather, should) not be a summary execution without a trial.

These are clearly illegal orders, and everyone participating in these strikes needs to be removed and tried for their crimes, starting with Hegseth, and going all the way down to the man who pushed the button to fire the missile.

Seconding this. I put my mom’s laptop on Mint because that was easier than supporting her on Windows. She freaking loves it because she’s not constantly bring pestered to sign into accounts, and she has an easy way to get software and features added to her computer without needing to call me.

Yeah, I was going to add that application management is so much better in Mint than the Windows store has ever been. Winget works alright, but you gotta use powershell for it, so “90% of users will think your product is shit.”

Sending anyone there is fascist…

Ignoring what?

Strange that you think “computer” must only mean “PC”.

Still 0/3 btw. Why don’t you quit while you are only this far behind?

Sure, a very small one, with a battery. My smartphone will charge off 5W.

I’ve got a mini Dremel that will charge off 5W USB. It ain’t gonna be fast, but it will definitely work.

You’re batting 0/3, still want to keep trying?

Wrong!

Runs on a 5W panel… So yes, a 30W panel can certainly do that.
