It'll be funnier when it plays out at a spacex shareholders' meeting.

Long story short: Microsoft just helped pop an alleged hacker using some windows device ID. I linked to a post in the hackernews thread about d-bus:

Ft. Knox

Did anyone ever go in there and show the gold? I thought someone campaigned with that as a promise.

Be the change you want to see in the world...

Pretty good resource for that kind of thing if you have another interested kid and access to the internet. There's also this:

Most still will. Like I'm sure a lot of people are doing, I was trying to reuse old hardware for a new purpose. Perfectly good computer with 16GB of RAM with an AMD A8-3850. I'm not complaining about progress's march towards the future, but I missed the warning signs about the changes. I'm sure some other folks probably did as well.

I'm going to drag out my same soapbox: a lot of systems old enough to use DDR3 RAM will have x86_64 v1 or v2 processors. Some projects have already removed support for those, the big one being the RHEL kernel as of RHEL9.

Too many gray areas (bodies of water) on that map with no red anywhere near them. The people there are going to be really surprised to learn that they've been living on some tech company's water all their lives, and that their local water board all retired and left the state at the same time.

You're approaching this with the attitude of a parent who's already got their future grandkids named.
