Maybe ‘the same way windows is’ IBM-DOS

Soon to be closed-software Linux??? /s

Or wireguard, depending where & how they want to implement it might be simpler or better/worse on hardware.

By 0.1 inch?

People need to realise the next step in civilisation is not stealing labour so eventually we can transition to a society that gets it’s production from “play” (people produce what they like & how they like it) not from “work” (forced production to maximise financial profit of an entity).

You are right.

They are also about data security, so nobody can just erase, modify, or destroy/lose data. And all that applies to data handling and access as well.

Anything that logs all the communication.

Govs have their own apps, email servers, various other web-based tools to exchange data, etc. Usually also gov hardware (ie can’t use/access such gov apps on non-gov phones).

It’s not “what’s better” it’s what is mandated/required/the law.
Much like when you get a regular average job you have to use whatever is permitted - company email is the usual, can’t just deal with company data over your private email account where the company has no oversight.

Yes, ofc, using Signal was intentional to not keep any records/evidence.

Signal is the place for top secret communications, but not for any government business, top secret or not (at least not when using a public instance - they could fork the project to keep decryptable records on gov servers where the official gov instance would run).

Call ICE hotline, explain that her friends and family are all illegal aliens, then you can all meet at the ICE detention centre - no planning stress!

Oh, good thinking, yeah! Lol
(Also that is how force users would be used irl.)

There is also the whatever amount of power (fields?) was used for constant healing & prolonging life by Palpatine for himself & his lil puppy (Vader in my previous msg was a brainfart, I prob meant Sidious, but same diff … can’t brain today no more).

I bet this could be modified to make electricity via some chemical processes.

Finally!! Now I only need this 20yo game to become a 30yo game so I can play it with an average outdated GPU.

Oh, yeah, I understood that - it was the fact that this is for the everyday “consumer” (for consumers) tech that inspired the comment, that regular folk will get up & personal with such tech soon & make it a regular mundane chore.

I could think about how much electricity an electric plant produces (& couldn’t comprehend it in daily terms that would make sense), but sitting in a charging car you get a much clearer picture of what that means, of how much energy (and “how much driving”) is running through that cable every second, etc.

900 million population is more than enough.
(And that much better if they are all gamers :))

Wow, 1 MW surpasses a lot (most?) of lighting based superhero/supervillains (def the shitty ones like Vader, but also orders of magnitude from TWs in Thors sparklers?).

This is a totally normal thought to have whilst charging up your car, shut up.

Grow up (enough) and adjusting your pp becomes a chore.

Imagine bombing the shit out of a country with the GDP of that aircraft carrier upkeep.

… that is def not my case, openSUSE is saving me a lot of time.

I’ve switched all my fiends & family (desktops) to Tumbleweed like 5 years ago bcs I don’t have to do any maintenance ever (not even customisation at the beginning, beyond setting them accounts). It has always been stable with exception that they only became “almost” out-of-the-box gaming friendly only in recent year or two.

Tumbleweed is just there, always updated, and feels nice. Oh, it’s not the quickest boot maybe?

Previously (15+ years, maybe 20 my parents) I had my family on Debians/Ubuntus which were stable but always very fiddly to distro upgrade, I don’t even remember what went wrong with old Fedora, but I changed it back in less than a year (almost 10 years ago, not relevant).

US troops often withdraw leaving way too much equipment behind.

I better not see civilians with “cool military” gear! That’s worse than any weeb or m’ladyian/fedorian.

But maybe I get to burn a Humvee or two since we “lack” those (now obviously surplus too) cybertrucks over here.

Not after the US sanctions said logistics :D
