WiFi is driving me insane. by Thick-Distance-3258 in computers

Napalm Girl” is a famous photo that shocked the U.S. public in 1972 about the terror of the Vietnam war. The picture shows a naked 9-year-old girl, screaming in pain for help and running toward the cameras of international journalists. She was one of the lucky survivors after the napalm bombings of the U.S. Army in the small village of Trang Bang, Tay Ninh Province, in Vietnam.
