When I did some work with a police agency, it was explained to me that there’s a pattern of escalation with people

You have been mildly brainwashed.

It would be best if that episode lead you to study a bit of psychology but instead you chose to believe.

Like any belief it's a combo of control and dopamine. The feeling of belonging to a group and being righteous within that group hits so hard that it takes hard explicit effort to screen your perception of its effects.

You are a victim because you failed to accept reality.

There were things like BLIZZARD 603e+ that you could just plug into an A1200.

And it would still run 68K code on "companion" 040/060

By my own admission I wrote ~100K loc in zig-head. Having a background in linux kernel development of all things I can tell you that Zig is so much better than C or Rust, that I think linux kernel rush to rust is misguided.

This is so for A500, but the definitive Amiga is A1200 with 68EC020, AGA and only limited by 24 bit address bus (=16 MB ram). From that on people just installed 030 with MMU and later PPCs if they wanted.

using floats for currency? that would be grander even than this fuckup.

"fire you as a customer"

I love this framing

Use cats. For all great Logi ergonomics, they fall prey to cat hair; and pads cover the screws, so they can't be reassembled pristine after cleaning. Still, M500s is the best.

I would have preferred a Forth on my C64 seriously. But no, we were stuck with this "38911 bytes free" crap.

Cut by multiple bend, strip by teeth, curl enough to catch, insert, pull, twist.

Do you feel you need a write-up on how to piss in the woods too?

C7 is great advice.

But also pack a short length of cat5 twisted pair just in case. When all else fails, it allows to rig up most anything.

There were ethics in veganism? Since when? It was always a religious movement, all the way back to Vedanta. A way to set yourself apart and then maybe feel better for not being "like those others".

Yes.

The value is in how you came to the design you expressed.

no one in the know cares about legal status of drugs as substances for personal enjoyment. see Shulgin.

lol. you get answers, guidance and tutoring if you ask with respect (cf Godfather, 1972)

not gravity, enthropy.

ARexx on Amiga was way before 1995. And it was glorious.

Did you mean twerking?

There isn't an exact quote from Douglas Adams, you have to read it all, but he put the point marvelously: reality is scary, unlimited and lovecraftesque, and we have filters to avoid that. Only when you master those filters you can consider yourself conscious.

They did this from the beginning, still one can not cease trying to limit the exposure.

RFC 1738 Uniform Resource Locators (URL) December 1994 section 2.2

The question is -- why they even need to verify ages of users. This is not decided, and my take is that they do not.

"government" age verification app will be made and maintan ed by some corp anyways.

so it will gather extra data, sell it sideways and leak like hell. (as they already do with all the data they already have)

What is more fun is that it reacts with water (and all air has some moisture) which then leaves hydrogen to catch fire and explode.

One can replace air with pure nitrogen for example, but that complicates things.

I'm not here to avoid dislikes.

As hard as ever. US and USSR and EU has this tech, China, India and others still don't. When USSR tech was sold left and right in 1990s, China could not replicate it, although they surely got the documentation back then. Even now they can't build a reliable gas generator from 70s and are stuck at 1960s level with R-25 MiG-21-style engine replicas. They still try and fail to build AL-31 analogs (1978, Su-27 engine).

Many people here to explain that they were holding it wrong. Meanwhile mindshare expands, tokens are sold and no one mentions that the only way to hold it 'right' is to not hold it at all.

Or Bender's "kiss my shiny metal ass".

haha. this is getting quite hilarious.

Thanks. Also consider using V.90 modem handshake sequence for alarms. It takes much dedication to sleep through "hrrr pshh ding dang pshh". GQ alarm samples also work.

I do not believe in being non-antagonistic in pursuit of truth. They could have admitted they never had any control over what's uploaded. Instead even when "antagonistically asked a question" they chose to not answer it. This is an answer in itself and to our great sadness extracting that required some amount of "antagonism".

was well-known back in the day.

I even did morse ringtones per a caller for few frequent ones. Even if you don't read it by ear, they are very distinctive.
