They’re using full disk encryption, which won’t let any part of it be read (even its partition table to boot the OS) until a password is entered. A system using FDE will go straight from POST to a password prompt.

A lot of people like FDE as it makes the encryption completely invisible to the OS and would normally have zero compatibility issues be problem-free.

Exactly. As I think I’ve said it before, there are a lot of numbskulls who think the PEVs work just like manual powered ones. But, with the increased speed, faster acceleration, and the general less work it takes to use one can make them take stupid risks that normally they wouldn’t otherwise.

For instance, they may be cruising down a road at 30mph. Coming to an intersection, they see the light is red, but since they aren’t in a car, they think it shouldn’t apply to them as they think that’s only for cars. What they didn’t realize is there is a tanker truck coming down the cross-street. The truck isn’t able to stop in time to avoid the guy on a e-bike who just darted out. The truck driver still tries to futilly veer away while slamming on the brakes causing the truck to jack knife and rollover. Smashing and killing the driver of a car that driving along next to it along with spilling whatever was in the tanks.

The end of it now is the e-bike rider and the driver in the car are dead, quite possibly the truck driver too. There is also a toxic spill that requires everyone in the immediate area to evacuate to a safe area until it is cleaned up. The roadway is closed for multiple hours, causing major delays and loss of business/service to the shops in the area. (hopefully no medical facilities) All this because the idiot on the e-bike didn’t bother to stop like they should have.

While there are some laws and rules in regards to PEVs, they are generally far and away from being complete or enacted/enforced in all areas. This in my opinion needs to be made a priority to achieve at least some semblance of safety and responsibility of all parties.

It also depends on the adhesive and climate. Eg. Post-its and masking tape rarely tear or leave a residue when removed from a smooth surface that hasn’t been in an overly dry or warm environment

Her regular bra in the first and last, no bra in the second, sports bra in the third. She got tired of the sports bra being too small and switched be to her regular between the 3rd and 4th

A router would be different though. It would keep the same radius regardless of building geometry as it’s signal degrades with physical distance from its antenna.

A dehumidifier works by running air through it and removing moisture then exhausting the now dry air out. The dry air would then intermix back into the room’s air, lowering it’s total humidity level. It may take a little more time based on the turbidity of the rooms air, but a dehumidifier would have the capacity to dry a .25x20x24m the same as a 3x5x8m room as both contain the same amount of air in their 120m³.

Edit: added units

Both reference each other.

I forget what was in Dune, but I remember Han introducing himself and saying he was a spice hauler in a past life.

I personally never had any issues with Vista. Even deferred win7 for 4-5 years until I got curious. Though I did have a system made for it, so that was part of it.

More and more they are starting to look like someone just vacuum molded the body over a chassis rather than putting any sort of real artistry to it. It also makes me wonder if Ellen is saying the look is “sexy,” does he have some sort of spandex fetish. Maybe he stole his mum’s pantyhose when alone and strutted around the house wearing them, thinking of himself as such. Maybe he still does…

One of her more recent and popular roles is Black Widow in the Marvel/Avengers movies. The one with red hair, dresses in an all black leather biker suit like an assassin, and acts as the sort of voice of reason to help keep the heroes grounded. (like being able to calm down the hulk when he’s having one of his fits)

Another role was as the title character in Lucy. The movie where she was conned/forced to be a drug mule and inadvertently got dosed with what she was carrying. This sort of supercharged her mind to superhuman levels, and turned her into a perfect assassin to be able to seek revenge on everyone who did her wrong.

Could be, though I’ve heard people use plug interchangeably.

Connections for data, the female side is usually called a port; for electrical, it’s officially called a receptacle, though more commonly called an outlet or sometimes a socket. The male side is always the plug.

Part of the reasoning is that dust can’t really settle on the contacts if they are facing down. It’s the same for the most part with rj45 (ethernet) ports.

Going by what I’ve heard, it’s a growing movement to switch to green energy and the concern that burning any fossil fuels is damaging to the environment.

A lot of these articles, while using completely valid science, are also worded in such a way to help convince people of the health concerns (no matter how small) to make the change, which also helps the movement. Sort of the “any little bit helps,” sort of thing.

We also have a bunch of ESS startups (at least in the bay area) carving into the newer market of decentralized energy.

Like Hippocrates telling people that a new breakthrough in medicine could allow bones to be seen in detail without cutting into flesh
