Public key cryptography and signatures are common technologies nowadays.

It is possible to build an age verification system, where you use your actual ID with a cryptographic process without any personal data. The technology has existed for decades now.

They are using the wrong kind of Linux! My kind of Linux is superior, because it’s broken in a different way and more difficult than yours.

Try downloading the file.

Easier to dominate.

Homebrew is supported on Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora.

I use it on my recent Linux Mint install. Mint has pretty old packages or enormously bloated flatpacks, that come with limitations.

neovim only came in an ancient version, that doesn’t support lazyvim. Nicotine+ came as ancient from the Mint packages or as a 4 GB monster via flatpack.

I used Homebrew and everything installed quickly in current versions and worked like a breeze.

The great thing about Homebrew is that removing it is as easy as rm -r /home/linuxbrew

Nix is great as well of course and very powerful. Can be a bit of a bitch to write all the config files though.

This is very bad advice for cold weather.

Washing hands is overrated. It only leads to a weaker immune system.

This opium-cannabis-arsenic tincture will make you feel much better in no time.

Sure. Lots of fiction, especially TV stick to well established tropes, regardless of a human writing it or not.

I go no ads. Using Firefox and Ublock Origin.

Best of both worlds:

• install boring stable distro
• use Homebrew to install bleeding edge stuff, separately from the base system.

Arch takes a long time to install, even if you have done it before.

Fedora is pretty good. However in order to install drivers or firmware for specific hardware can be more difficult as it involves adding extra repositories.

the current Nvidia drivers were incompatible with the shipped kernel

A more common issue with Nvidia is older hardware no longer being supported by Nvidia’s current drivers and the kernel not supporting the old drivers. For older cards, you need to run kernel 6.8 or older for the binary drivers to work. The open source Nouveau driver is noticeably slower and getting hardware accelerated video to work can be difficult. So you can easily end up with mesa-llvm, meaning your CPU emulates OpenGL.

The easiest way to get this to work is to install Linux Mint 22.1.

You can improve the novel writing by using agents. First you generate just an outline with the plot points to every chapter. Then you chop that up and feed it to several agents to flesh out individual chapters. Finally the generated chapters are verified against the outline and overall plot. If that doesn’t fit, the agents are tasked with a rewrite. Repeat that until you have something serviceable.

As you point out, there exists plenty of bad writing in TV series. These often have a number of different authors, who don’t necessarily know the other episodes very well.

One of Netanyahu’s sons was a press officer behind the lines, but the other was with combat intelligence at the front.

Israel is different in this regard. Everybody serves in the army. It’s also a small country. The military Is closely woven into society. The IDF is not a professional army, but mostly made up of reservists who are called up as needed. That means the political leaders will know people personally who have to fight.

What unit you serve in can make a big difference for your later success in life. Combat units, special forces, Air Force, and intelligence have the highest prestige.

Politicians benefit immensely in their credibility, if they have a distinct military career.

What country did you select?

Yanis talking without shutting up while rolling sounds like a fun time.
