Cool, thanks for the info!

The competitor of Group Policy is not really an implementation of that running on Linux clients. It's that the client doesn't need that level of management because 99.5% of your users only use cloud based services. Microsoft know

Interesting. Of course, it's at least safe if you have a good temperature control. I'm guessing you use single core wire? What kind of tip do you use?

From the talk linked above, they went to considerable effort to design a system with a cheap processor which nevertheless contains an mmu, and so most other embedded kernels, which assume the lack of one, are not applicable. So the point of

Don't know it, but this website attributes it to the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam: https://theomarkhayyamclubofamerica.wordpress.com/extended-r... (Edited on reading more closely) Or possibly some fan work, since this &quo

Ah, I did assume your were talking about the US; my apologies. My comment applies to the US, and perhaps other countries with the potential to enter a similar situation.

My message was in no way intended to comment on the legitimacy of either the government of Iran or of its potential overthrow. There are circumstances in which the overthrow of a government is justified. You may be passionately in favour of

Is that the right threat model, though? Governments usually switch off the internet when they have a risk of being overthrown. Thats' why it's happening in Iran. They want to disrupt the co-ordination of a coup, and their opponent

Totally. Responsability is not, in general, mutually exclusive. When it happens to be, that's an organisational convenience, not a moral law.

I think you mean the pi3? On the pi4 the ethernet is connected to the main SoC.

This is sad, and it doesn't reflect especially well on either party. Here's the thing, though: we evolved in a world where being expelled from the tribe was a death sentence. When people fall out, often their instinct is to try to

A washing machine has a decent amount of metal in it, that's definitely going to be recycled, as it has value. A policy like this could cause environmental damage, but saying that it's inevitable is just defeatist. In fact the m

The EU and UK already require sellers to recycle electronics, and we can still afford washing machines. Here is Amazon's page: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeI...

What do you mean by "doesn't work"? Doesn't work to prevent crime? Or doesn't work too suppress dissent?

Saying to a patient "you have X" can communicate three different things: - a casual diagnosis: your problem is caused by C - a syndrome: you have this collection of symptoms which often appear together, we don't know what cau

This guy is probably chasing moonshine, but TBH "functional neurological disorder" sounds like one of those face-saving labels that doctors use when they don't have any idea what's going on.

This begs the question though, of why individuals still need to do this like a 17th century clerk, when it costs their counterparties fractions of a man-second. Imagine if their was a law which said, every business that takes a credit card

That's a good one. One I tend to do is, once I know i will run the dishwasher overnight, I will set it to run with a delay. That way, even if I forget to put in the last few items, it's going to run and I will not run out of clean

As of the time of writing the first hundred or so comments are on tangents, so TLDR: this is about making a "Linux distribution" of which all the userland software is win32 software running on Wine. The idea, among others, is to r

The flaw with the technology is that it is designed so you need the co-operation of your carrier, when previously you did not. Indeed, for the first versions moving a sim profile could not even be initiated independently by a user, but requ

What language would you pick first, if you're going to add non English to London trains? The problem with UK announcements is that they are piped to multiple places in the station, which is all hard surfaces and produces lots of reverb

For a moment I thought this was actual co-ax, which would be supremely ironic (it was used in the early days of Ethernet, but twisted pair proved cheaper). But it looks like neither candidate has a conductive core, although they do have the

The previous law used to control racial hatred was the law of criminal libel; it was successfully used to prosecute antisemitism etc. As a species of libel, it had an absolute defence of of speaking the truth. Now, clearly you can be clever

Thanks. So the liquid part is the working fluid. I had been wondering if the pistons were liquid; some engines like that have been built, but not very efficient ones as far as I know.

Hmm that's impressive for a single plug fixing. The above for fix-v is from their load table at https://fiproductmedia.azureedge.net/media/Load%20Tables/Loa... That's 0.43 kN which is 430N or ~43kgf. Com

Those seem to be for drywall. The strongest option is using resin to install some threaded rod, eg fis-v which is rated to 43kgf (shear load) in the lower of the two rated aircrete classes. That's because it spreads through the holes a

If you have its path, dpkg already has an option to do that: "dpkg -S". Although some extra logic is needed for symlinks.

It may be worth mentioning, for anyone who didn't know this already; that the fruiting body, which is what your normally see, isn't most of the mushroom. The rest of it is in the ground, or in something else like a dead log or liv
