rue, but I think if crossing a border, this would be enough to get by. I doubt the border guards would know what fdisk is showing and you can say "that was there when I bought it". But the big question would the guards even know a

A very interesting solution! If you can do without Windows, I would say formatting a USB with a first partition as an 8 gig DOS partition and a 2nd partition as Linux LUKS may work just a good. But a few people may know about Linux. So if

One thing I have not seen mentioned between Chinese AI vs US, population. China has a billion+ people that their AI can "study". Plus due to China's political structure, their AI has access to everyone's chats, comments

I was not sure about Korea, but I am sure your are correct. For Vietnam, yes, if you look back the Vietnam War was officially called a "Police Action". The politicians back then knew it was not a "real war" because war w

First the meaning of "war" needs to be defined. FWIW, in the US, only Congress can declare war. IIRC, that really has not happened since Korea. Also since WW2, none of these countries posed a real danger to the US Public, plus p

All the data centers do is: 1. use all the water 2. Increase electric costs but a large amount 3. Increase noise in the neighborhood If the above was false, no one would care. Plus these data centers provides almost no jobs, so there is no

Most of us here knows ways around this, but many people are not educated. One method is get off your smart phone and boot tails and do the searches there. Maybe that is something EFF can make known. Like list trusted onion sites that have

Well the site does not present Texas in a good light. Their .gov site presents me with this. Looks like they need to worry about their own site instead of worrying about out of state sites. >Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead >

Not the biggest but I am sure it is in the top 10. FWIW, I say the top 7 scams occurred in the past 2 years.

Should not be a surprise since we have know about CO2 Levels and fossil fuels for many decades. The surprise is nothing was real was done. Compare what our generation did with this knowledge against the sacrifices the WW2 generation did.

And yet Sony wonders why people pirate their movies. In this case here the owners who had their movies stolen should be able to steal them back.

I cannot answer that and I think it will be years before, so I went with "Nobody Yet". Tracy Chapman is an interesting pick, but I think she could be in the future. But I am surprised Thoreau was not in the list, at least from wha

There is also correlation of the elimination of Lead Paint to violent crime. So that may need to be taken into account. Lead Paint elimination started in the Early 70s IIRC, so the same time period :)

I wonder how this correlates to Prostate Cancer. From what I heard, high testosterone can be one of the causes of Prostate Cancer. But that is over a long time. So if levels are falling, is prostate cancer lowering a little bit ? But that w

True, but I think that could cause issues for astronomers. Instead if seeing small points of light they could see fast moving black spots obscuring stellar objects. In a way looking like eclipses.

I remember hearing a few years ago the Bloomberg Terminal was "redone" to be Windows based. Is that true ? Or do they still run on top of their own OS. I would have thought if they would have move anywhere, it would have been to

Interesting. I wonder how memory is handled due to the # of potential characters in UTF-8, or maybe only a subset of characters are allowed. Or is there a TSR handling that from a database on disk. I cannot get to the twitter site and xca

Interesting post, it made me wonder. At one time FreeBSD swap usage/logic was far better than what Linux did. Is that still the case ?

Didn't Sony get in trouble for deleting movies from devices ? I guess they want to do the same for their console too. So people should just stop buying games that are not on phyical media. THat will get Sony to change fast.
