@thor Try automotive glass cleaner that comes in a spray bottle. It should be mostly isopropyl alcohol. It was my secret as a custodian. In the US, something like regular window cleaner can leave streaks. On a vehicle this could result in an accident and a lawsuit.
Rubbing alcohol works well at 70% or higher. To get rid of the streaks just wipe the squeegee after each pass. The alcohol should leave a surface that reminds one that they forgot the outside.
Electronics from the 90s and 00s don't feel like they've become collector's items yet. But there are signs that Gen Z has the same nostalgia for that era that Gen Y has for the 70s and 80s.
@thor There where arcades with really amazing games. House of the Dead, Area 51 and San Francisco Rush were a lot of fun. Playing Tekken while two hormone charged teens were having a good time in a dimly lit arcade. Brightly colored candy that was very expensive and tasted terrible. Apparently the candy was illegal too.
On a post tbat is notjing more than a single link to a wikipedia page was enough for facebook tomperminately flag me as a child porn offender. Even upon review they upheld it!
The International courts have called Israel to court several times over human rights violations and acts of terrorism (including using children as shields). They have never showed. This alone is enough for me to support his arrest as a war criminal.
inb4: The international court has also called HAMAS to court, and they should be held guilty for their violations as well.
Moisturizer is just a heroin addiction for your skin. Do people even realize that if you use it more than a few times it causes your skin to need it to even function and like cigarettes you need to use it just to get your skin like it used to be.
People who use it for years and then stop will literally have their skin peeling off and cracking.
@freemo@niclas Nothing from nature is bad like aflatoxin or nitrosamines. Pop a tablet of something closely related to a molecule that naturally occurs in chocolate and oh it's very bad.
Glad to hear the gun show loophole is getting closed nationally, but I'm concerned about how the executive branch has the power to do that. Shouldn't it be the legislative's power?
Its soooo hard for me to take any group seriously that can ask me to vote for Biden and in the same breath sincerely argue the man isnt senile. At least if they admited his obvious senility it woukd show enough self awareness of the party that i might even consider getting on board.
I would love to undertand better the reason/psychology/development of some homosexual men to speak in that distinctive way of speaking that seems exclusive to gay men. Like it isnt an accent, and doesnt seem to occur naturally since its exclusive to that group. Do gay men make it a point to learn to speak that way at some point? If so why?
My best guess is as a way to show their orientation publicly to signal to other gay men, in an effort to creat connections or find companions that are also gay? But that would imply its a conscious thing they learnedto do at some point?
PS please no inconsiderate responses. Be respectful people.
@freemo Homosexual men seem to be well-spoken but the level of skill is very impressive. I believe homosexual men tend to be more intelligent than their heterosexual counterparts.
@freemo@lupyuen I don't see the problem except that it didn't specify if it was fission, fission-fusion or pure fusion.
Conventional energetic devices are just containers that fail to hold a chemical reaction.
There's even an argument that not knowing how to make a bomb is worse. For example a young agent finding a rental van with a lot of fertilizer and saying that it's fine exactly a year after setting a residence on fire and massacring a religious community.
Or making a funny tiktok where a glitter prank goes in an unexpected direction because they used aluminum powder.

@freemo@salcedo They are good laptops but the OEM has participated in Supply Chain Attacks for a long time. All the back doors that were accidentally left in and APTs from the Mainland targeting them with ease.
It's usually Firmware and UEFI that I've seen compromised. It would have to be the Chinese APTs responsible. I've never seen such impressive and efficient exploitation. I've seen Chinese software bypass Knox without tripping alarms back when it was an accomplishment. I've seen it hit Thinkpads bypassing the CPU security processor and other hardware security without it being noticed. It wasn't old hardware, it was still under warranty in some cases.
I hope you have an ace up your sleeve. None of my hardware was able to pull a sample. It's a shame because that was beautiful malware and I would have loved to have a sample. It was persistent, evasive and took me a few hours to recognize there was a threat and how deep it was. It wiped itself after discovery only leaving the same behavior after.
I can't say where I found it. I will say that their Sys Admin couldn't remote brick the device. They were upsetti spaghetti that I found something and used a little trick to bypass some of the security.
I'm not going to say that a portable firewall/router with custom settings will stop everything but it can buy some time or perhaps stop the vPro kill signal.
This was somewhere during the early Covid Years and the closest thing I could find to the capabilities of it was something that was used on NK by China. Even Kaspersky wasn't able to get a complete sample.
TL;DR Thinkpads are to businesses what MacBooks are to Art Schools. The supply chain is sketchy with the company having an odd history of over powered exploits and the firmware is locked down enough to prevent easy analysis. Just be careful with those laptops. I'm not a pro but I'm certainly not a novice. I still don't fully understand how it got past the Sys Admin but I would defend their actions because Certifications displaced useful information in their mind.
@freemo@LouisIngenthron@admitsWrongIfProven It only seems crazy because it would be actual freedom and jerking it to Regan. Legalize all drugs, full auto, no ATF and abortions available on demand.
If I'm a man and can stand my ground, my woman should be able to stand her ground by having an abortion too. The world doesn't need more people like me and to have to put up with the horror of carrying that is inhumane.
A Driver's License should include motorcycles by default. The DCMA should go away. Religious marriages shouldn't be respected, it was likely coerced. Vaccine mandates shouldn't exist, let people die how they want. Having sex with a patient should be okay, it doesn't get much safer than that.
All jokes aside, I keep a Zebra F-701 and F-401 with ultra fine black carts. Those are for Mathematics. I keep M-301s for dragging graphite rods against an abrasive surface. A Permanent Marker is a must and I only use the large one to accidentally write on a whiteboard. (Professors think it's magic when they see Expo solvent remove it.)
I also keep a G2 ultra bold black, 1.0mm I believe, that's for Hanzi. Anything other than that pen and I will mess up the strokes. A Fountain Pen is something I love to hate. I have several Cross Pens but I don't like fancy mediocrity, it's a cod piece of a pen. Parker Pens feel a little better in my experience but Zebra has really black ink and the heavier F-701 just glides across paper. It's also not a weapon and the knurled steel grip is the only acceptable grip.
A pen is a tool and every tool has a specific use. If someone doesn't have a preference in pens, perhaps it's because they don't write often.
@freemo@LouisIngenthron@admitsWrongIfProven It would be nice to try a secretary out before hiring too but that just sounds sexist and creepy as hell. Unless the genders are swapped, it is not tolerable in modern society.
@LouisIngenthron@freemo@admitsWrongIfProven Personally I don't see why that doesn't replace the interview. An interview at a previous job involved wiping and writing an image to a computer lab. Yes it was rather simple but it was through the network.
Hiring individuals as independent contractors could make it less intimidating. It's not an option everywhere but it looks better than a probationary period on a resume. A contract just doesn't get renewed, it also doesn't imply fault and makes for an easier clean up.
@freemo@LouisIngenthron@admitsWrongIfProven Well we need to rename these things to something better to soften the blow of the minor issue of the doors coming off during operation. It's restructuring and a move towards compliance with the regulatory bodies. We will all be getting raises and reducing cost while protecting our image.
We keep this company afloat or in the air. It doesn't matter what we make. WE make the money. 7075 is just Aluminum right? If we were to recycle beer cans, we would be seen as Green and save a lot of money.
@freemo Pyrolysized wood impregnated with sodium silicate thoroughly coated with graphite. Electroplate it with different metals so it develops a unique patina. A simple copper coating can be a reddish color so it would be good to coat in enamel. You would have the most unique grips that are arguably wooden.
