No, back in those days these were very much hardware/firmware based. It’s a decade before the SD standard.

It’s also from a period where Windows machines were riddled witb viruses that spread by USB. This prevented your drive from getting infected.

This is probably my favourite metal flashdrive of all time. I had a 1GB of the first generation and then later another usb3 one of 32GB

These days I carry one of these on my keychain.

Surprisingly fast given the size. Will do 300MB/s sequential read. About 90MB/s write

I use medicat/ventoy on it with windows 11 , debian and linux mint ISOs on it.

One of these took me through university in 2002

I really miss the hardware read only switch.

Computer labs did not have front USB back in those days, so we had to choose between floppies or diving under the desks. I was in the diver club.

32MB was massive for documents at the time. It could hold your entire academic life back then.

Or be broken up.

Does this guy look like a civilized Elon Musk to anyone else?

This is why you should always give your developer “free dev time” where they work on what they feel like, or what they think is important outside of the approved scope.

They have fun and will likely fix something your players will be asking for.

Someone is going to stream that 0.1% run on twitch and market the hell out of your game. Just look at Luality that completed dark souls with a DDR dancepad.

“Christian” journalists are not known for objectivity given the source material of their religion.

Amazon mechanical Turk service.

In the future your robot waiter will be a Asian working for 6 cents an hour.

Until it’s wings “Snaps”.

Ubuntu does so much good, this is one thing I wish they would abandon.

Or at minimum, not have it as the default option.

I supported him buying Twitter, as since he has been distracted, spaceX is doing a lot better again.

Sounds like a fun time.

My wife once sent me to the shop to pick up some hand lotion, a cucumber and a box of tissues.

The 16 year old girl behind the counter gave me a weird look.

Yes, absolutely. Israel and Palestine are places where people live and community structures exist. They belong to the people who live there.

I actually believe a 1 state solution will be more stable in the long term. The defacto 2 state solution, with one under occupation will never work. The Palestinian vote should be enough to swing the Israeli government away from the right.

Restitution needs to be part of the process, but not at the cost of established long communities and stable communities. There is no magic wand to “make it back the way it was”. Communities are groups of people, not places. Focus on restoring the networks of people. It won’t be fair, but it might be the best option available.

To hell with divine rights and ancestor speak. Secular freedoms for all, before religious freedoms.

It’s the only way to peace in the region.

As to how to get to that point, I am terribly underqualified, but a Marshall style international intervention like what happened in Germany and Japan after WWII probably holds some value.

Exactly. LLM makes you do the same stupid shit, but faster and with more intensity.

Because ethnostate is just the excuse people use. Look at the demographics, it’s very multicultural in population.

But it’s leadership sucks donkey balls and there is way too much religion in their society.

Its not AIs fault, its advertising based SEOs fault. Search has been broken for years for many topics.

Now say it in public and act accordingly.

Defend Israel, but not Netanyahu’s government.

As a very quick and intense treatment?

It’s not needed. God will make it right.
