unlikely because most of the mess revolved around the failure to properly break down the ottoman empire back after WW1 which left any minority group in the region victims of future problems over the past century. if it didnt happen back then, its unlikely to happen now.

she was born into it because iirc her parents are one, and its less of a story of her converting to one.

my opinion is that of course, theres basically no replacing Chester, but as a group they need to leverage what she can do and hopefully push out a banger. Need to not look at the past too long and look ahead

my domain is my media server, so id rather not end my domain.

if pangea came back, many cities will become inhospitable for their population die to not having a large body of water to live near by. Human society has always favored large bodies of water to start cities.

employment potential and learning are generally problems if you are young. if you are old, the time investment to learn a new language is generally not self beneficial as your time of employability starts to dwindle.

Linux ultimately will have to run into the situation of if the people want the newer language to become the mainstream, they need to be more proactive at the development of the kernel itself instead of relying on yhe older generation, who does ot the way they only know how, as relearning and rewriting everything ultimately to them, a waste of time at their point in life.

think like proton was for gaming. you dont(and will not) convince all devs to make linux compatible games using a vulkan branch. the solution in that front was to create a translation layer to offload most of that work off because its nonsensical to expect every dev to learn vulkan. this would be applied moreso to the linux kernel, so the only realistic option (imo) is that the ones who are working in rust need to make the rust based kernel and hope that it takes off in a few years to actually gain traction.

insee it as apple is a full vertical stack conpany who doesnt want to share its vertical stack as it cuts into their profit.

its what nvidia is trying to do, and if windows for arm takes off, i bet that nvidia is ready to attempt to remove all competition on windows due to how reliant some sectors of the industry are for nvidia hardware

if its on carpet, ots okayish, if its on hard floor its a bad time. speaking from experience

i believe my neopets account is older than my youtube account, so that. actually went to playing neopets again fairly recently to see how its changed

again, its diminishing the security features of the different forms of communication. one (likely) requires connecting to a secondary powered device, likely with a 10 key minimum password length of various characters or a series of login prompts. the other is a protocol which connects either by pairing or a 4 digit pin… just because security exploits exists for all connections doesnt mean all communication standards have equivalent security risk.

the protocols on how Bluetooth is handled is far different than the ones how wifi is handled, same as NFC and cellular. to equate all their security as “the same” is very dismissive, especially comparing to wifi and cellular which typically arent direct device to device connections.

nfc dodges its problems because its for the most part off until you open an app that uses it, so its already doing what a user should be doing for security reasons.

it can be a security issue leaving it on. also can drain battery as its occasionally pinging for nearby devices.

the advtage they have is that they wouldnt be able to be easily be influenced by money, because well, they have a lot already. it would probably be the main reason why neither poltical party would want them to run, because they wouldnt be able to be controlled as easily. a lot of powerful people would not want a populist to gain control.

i mean, id be happy returning to subsidizing education, space exploration, and taxing the rich 84%+

it was because crowdstrike themselves notified that this specific instance did not affect their linux nor osx distributions of security, and was windows specific.

you can to some extent, its not like you couldnt throw an emulator designed for one architecture to one with a subset, as its already shown on the PS4 for example that you could throw dolphin and cemu on a ps4 running linux. (not that it would run nice, but its possible).

its only harder if youre trying to do it in the base OS necause the base OS is usually lacking a graphics API rather than it be a hardware issue itself that presents problems. Its why jokingly people are saying the Xbox Series may be able to run PS3 soon beccause dev mode was updated with Mesa, which includes support from both opengl and vulkan. And alien hardware isnt usually always the issue, given random devices are capable of pf running Sega Saturn, which on its own lile the PS3, had extremely unique hardware

someone who believes in a flat earth is also more likely to believe in the geocentric order of planets rather than the heliocentric one.
