This is why I really don’t want flying cars in the way ground cars operate. And sound proof buildings isn’t enough, because I like being outside.

Not my last, but after using killall
in Linux, I tried it on hpux, only to discover and later confirm in the man page that on hpux it doesn’t take any arguments, it just kills every process.
I can’t believe it’s real. 🤦♂️
Michigan lakes area. It is sometimes really windy and really cold for long periods of time. The kind of climate where we get ice in the inside of our windows. Any mechanics needed to have a mechanical doorbell would also let in cold air.
Edit: apparently there are some that have mechanics that pass through the wall that are similar to a door handle and can be sealed up pretty well. Very cool!
I would love that if my climate allowed for it.

True, but nothing else looks like money. Lots of things have a similar shape as the barrel of a gun.
Money is also quite detailed, with a known list of configurations. Any counterfeit would need to match the details in those known configurations extremely well. Finding that match with a high degree of accuracy is a fairly well understood and common engineering task. This is not the same task as identifying anything that could possibly be used to represent money with a high degree of accuracy, which is essentially what would be needed in the gun printing problem.
Somewhat related, the US Gov provides play money that you can print for your kids, which I found helpful to teach my kids about how money works. https://www.uscurrency.gov/sites/default/files/download-materials/en/Printable-Play-Money.pdf
Maybe that was lost in translation. Maybe what they meant to say is they love cunnilingus.
Next up: Smith and Wesson is granted a copyright for DRM on STL files.
Taking this purely as an engineering task, how is this remotely possible? I can barely begin to imagine how restrictions on what can be printed could be set. Am I missing something obvious? Some kind of contextual understanding of the object seems to be necessary… please don’t tell me their proposed solution is AI.
In any case it will never work because 3D printing is so easy for makers to do from scratch, so any solution will fail to prevent printed guns from being made.
Again, this is just the pragmatic engineering angle. Please don’t respond with political arguments.
It was a joke. Dark humor is a coping mechanism that helps some of us avoid letting the existential dread creep in. Slaughterhouse 5 “so it goes” and all.
He was just tempting fate by leaving a town called Lucknow in an ambulance.

My first line of investigation here would be virtualization. It will solve the “don’t mess with my Linux install” problem and will let you use the windows apps you need at the same time as the Linux apps you normally use. Also VMs have all their other useful features like snapshots and portability.
I did this in the distant past and it was quite convenient having the VM instead of a dual boot.
Microsoft has had an impressively positive impact on Linux, including the kernel directly. It started ramping up about 15 years ago. They were the 5th highest contributor to the 3.x kernel.
I recall reading about them working on improving Linux’s MS related features, like fat32 support, samba, and things to make Linux run better in hyper-v that also helped performance overall.

Yeah, and that’s what I said next. That wasn’t the funny part of the story though.
In four years? This is the same guy who said we’d be colonizing Mars in 2025 after launching a starship voyage in 2022. The same guy who for 10 years has been saying self driving car features are less than a year away.
Oh man, what a throwback! I had completely forgotten about this. It made a splash and then I never heard anything more about it. One of my coworkers installed it on his Toshiba laptop and ran it for a week or two before giving up.
