Did the Linux gods see what the hardware gods had going on and decide to get in on the action?

What subject, and was it time limited? If there was any chance of not finishing in time I’d probably leave those until last.

Regular chalk is calcium carbonate. Crayola’s website says their sidewalk chalk uses calcium sulfate (gypsum as an ingredient in plaster of paris).

So they’re both calcium salts.

But how could you get your hand to seamlessly meld into the fabric of the shoulder strap?

This is an absolutely braindead lazy take.

The same professional journalists who’ve worked at these big media corporations have used the substack platform to open up sites in droves so they can focus on more niche topics, or just escape the censorship of owners and advertisers.

If you think that legitimate news can only come from a company owned by billionaires, then you’re wrong.

Are you suggesting they didn’t know Signal wasn’t an approved platform for sensitive government communication and willfully used it anyway?

That’s literally the defining feature of asymmetric cryptography. There are many explanations of how it works which you can easily find. One example is the Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography

If you educate yourself and are still confused, you should probably just accept the fact that even though you can’t understand the specifics, information encoded with the public key cannot be decoded with the same public key.

In my opinion the most relevant commonality is the hypocrisy of all the involved parties. Hillary had sent out a notice to the entire State Department saying to only use official communication platforms, and then did the opposite as if she thinks she’s above the rules.

Then these Republicans who condemned the actions also used a non-official platform.

Giffords group lies or misleads about guns?

I helped do the easy scenario at large scale in a fortune 50 several years ago after the vendor thought they could get greedy on the support contract renewal. Only required small changes to a few files and packages.

Copyright does not give the holder control over every “use”, especially something as vague as “using it to undermine their skillset”.

Copyright gives the rights holder a limited monopoly on three activities: to make and sell copies of their works, to create derivative works, and to perform or display their works publicly.

Not all uses involve making a copy, derivative, or performance.

It’s poor for the second, since the result is a gas (hard to store long term). We would want it as a solid or liquid product, which this doesn’t do.

Why wouldn’t the device include or feed a compressor to liquidize the CO2? It takes just a little over 5 atm of pressure which is trivial.

I think a likely scenario would be for name changes, such as taking your partner’s surname after marriage.

Talos Linux is another unique option.

Agreed (mostly).

Just because something isn’t illegal, that doesn’t make it morally right. The inverse also applies.

Even though the First Amendment prohibits government suppression of speech, it doesn’t mean that the expression is immune to consequences from society including non-governmental suppression.

I think the “no arrests were made” observation was meant in relation to your last point, not the first at all.

For most people, using https and dns over https (DoH) is probably all that’s needed.

That made me think it’d look good as a card:

Isn’t that because Dan hasn’t open-sourced his project yet

Wrong: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/LICENSE

and doesn’t let anybody else contribute?

Hmm, while there have been 158 contributors, a very small percent were from the other developers: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/graphs/contributors

This information is pretty easy to look up.

Right? So much of this seems like people not able to tell if actions are good or bad independent of who takes the action. There’s no way their team could ever do anything bad, and anything done by the other team is automatically bad.

God forbid you try to reinforce a rare good behavior from someone who’s also done a lot of horrendous things.

I don’t know where you are, but real Coke is made with phosphoric acid, which is also used for rust removal or conversion.
