BTW, if you want a simple NFSv4 client in Go, feel free to use mine: https://github.com/Cyberax/go-nfs-client Making it into an NFSv4 server should also be pretty easy.

The unresponsive NTDVM was mainly due to its piss-poor text mode emulation. Win9x still virtualized the graphics card (so you couldn't use SVGA games in Win9x) but its emulation was implemented better.

In theory, there's also direct laser-based isotope separation. It's a technology that is being actively suppressed, and that's one case where I very much in favor of that.

From a quick lookaround, it looks like a lot of water sources in the area have similar natural levels of arsenic. I could not find chromium content information, and it's plausible that it can be leached from stainless steel. These are

SO2 is typically scrubbed and used to produce sulfuric acid. It's not a _clean_ process, but its waste stream is fairly well-controlled. The amount of carbon used in the reaction itself is totally neglibile, compared to other overheads

Arsenic and lead occur naturally through the food chain. If the levels of discharge are not significantly above the normal levels (and they aren't) then it's harmless.

Yup. And the disillusionment in Trump makes them a fertile ground for a _competent_ manipulator. Trump is comically incompetent, old, and probably suffers from minor dementia at this point. Now imagine somebody like Mamdani or Rubio gaining

LOL. Why not just build bunkhouses and then rent out bunk beds there? For a cool $5000 a month. Because that's the end goal, isn't it? Manhattan is _already_ one of the densest cities in the world. It needs a good _downzoning_ to

The problem is the cost. Tiles are pretty small, and you need to wire them together. This means a lot of small-gauge wires going all through your roof. Multiple tiles also need to be connected in series to get reasonable efficiency, so you

They're not. In 2023 the overdose deaths were more than 100k. They have gone down a bit since then, for a very grim reason: they killed enough people to affect the statistics.

Well, now the war on drug is over and we see that the harms from _not_ doing it are worse. In 2023, overdoses overtook gun and traffic deaths _combined_. Surrendering to the drugs was a mistake. Yeah, we should have changed tactics. Zero-to

Sigh. 1gbps is widely available, even in relatively poor countries. And if you're making a _new_ device that should last for 5-10 years, it's just stupid to use technology that is getting obsoleted even now.
