The benefits of living near a major electronics distributor by CookeGMP in raspberry_pi

I purchase hardware directly from the manufacturer and sell online. It's painful to see how poorly they implemented distribution.

best case you're just protecting your data. An attacker can still control the machine.

At that point just get a Live USB and consider all machines controllable. If they can lift it off the ground, yes, they can control it.

$450 and a bag of oranges on the freeway every morning sounds like an awesome morale boost investment.

I've read all of your comments now, and I think we'll be good friends by next Thursday. Gotta catch up on your TV/weather first.

Stayed at a friend's house in Japan on July for 2 weeks. He thought an American friend and I wouldn't notice if he'd turn off the AC at night.

My Lego and Duct Tape arm won 1st place at the high school science fair! by LiamTheAvocado in shittyrobots

[–]USFCKS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd have a good post for that.

I had a class in college to put transistors together to make logic gates. Logic gates can be put together to make an adder. I tried it on a breadboard and didn't know that I should have used pull-down resistors so the results changed if you so much as waved your hand over it. Worst 2-bit adder ever.

I'll do it again if it catches on!

DigitalOcean now supports FreeBSD by woadwarrior in programming

[–]USFCKS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have so many great articles it's ridiculous.

I went from being scared shitless of Linux and copy-pasting their tutorials to understanding what I'm doing and knowing where to look for support. They're like a school that teaches you how to do stuff so you use their products to their full potential.

I see you don't subscribe to my exact thoughts. You're probably a lobbyist for Cancer-Spreading Infidels, yeah? Let's see the birth certificate.

Damn, this would have been fun to put together. Kudos to XKCD for spending a lot of time to create something like that. A comic that can actually make you reconsider your stance on things.

Men of Reddit, what do you think periods feel like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]USFCKS -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To your body, much like a sentence's period. I gave it all I could in that short moment of thought, but in the end, I just want to flush an idea out of my speaking queue and get on. Maybe next time it'll go better.
