Exactly. We spent four years playing into their hands, its going to take us decades to recover from that mistake.

This guys playing chess while the rest of us are playing checkers…

It’s gdp is more that france

Honestly, so long as people keep buying their phones they really don’t care about this kind of stuff. Sure, it was a way to drive up margins for a while, but they will just move onto their next bag of tricks to make it hard to leave.

This can be handled a few different ways.

• You can boot from a HDD and then just not ever write data back to it. This would be the most trivial solution, and it’s something people do with their Pi’s a lot to avoid SD card failure.
• You could network boot, pull the OS from the network at startup. Fun fact, this is how some rockets fly! No onboard persistent storage needed. Everything boots into and runs from ram the whole 10 ish minutes of operation.
• You COULD do a ROM as you suggested, but that’s a LOT of ROM. Seems odd to do imho.

Provided the pressure is maintained from the outside, mine would work fine with a match.

Give the rapid churn in their code base these days, I’m gonna press X to doubt that.

What’s the watts-per-search of google?

Right? Let’s see this pass rigorous muster first.

No, I am demonstrating that the argument doesn’t hold water on even first order inspection. And you seem to be upset that you don’t understand that.

Kindly stop wasting my time and go away.

Which again, read the origional post stranger lol

You can be sentenced and appeal from jail stranger. You don’t just sit free if you have an appeal. It’s extremely situational.

Are you claiming no appeals court had ever ruled someone was exercising free speech after a lower court jailed them? Lol

I’m citing it happens, something you yourself have agreed with.

Go read original post, this is literally what I am saying.

They are supposed to, but it happens. There is a reason we have appeals courts stranger.

By that logic, they cannot guarantee the freedom of speech either though. They can try very hard, and do their best to make amends for when it’s breached, but many people have been silenced illegally by the US government. They can try, but they cannot promise this fact.

I don’t see why one couldn’t apply the same to climate.
