Probably wiping process control code from the systems that contain tons of fiddly hard to find constants and other information.
This probably violates California privacy protection laws. Which they will have to follow if they are in the US and have data on persons in California
The majority of his army is bogged down in Ukraine. I have doubts about their readyness
Based on the comments it appears the prompt doesn’t really even fully work. It mainly seems to be something to laugh at while despairing over the writer’s nonexistant command of logic.
The complaints about Wolfenstein becoming political really took the cake for me.
They kinda threaten to send you off to freedom camp if you disagree with them. The fascisim ain’t subtle.
I’m a bit concerned what happens when Gabe Newell dies
Add a factory at the start, loop the other end back to the factory for maintenance, and you have the original Minuteman concept:

Not sure if it’s actually possible to out noncredible cold war nuclear strategists.
Unfortunately this feels more like posturing than substance.
The stabbing rate in the UK for example is lower than it is in the US per capita. So the idea knives replace guns doesn’t really seem to hold
Not a JS dev either but ===

Not really sure what the (+x)

The simple solution here is to record to flash when wifi dies. Yes wired stuff is nice but half of these are consumer installed.
Scam Altman Freid strikes again
I’ve had the reverse. I started using arch because debian didn’t have my wifi driver yet.
The whole idea behind Manjero’s update scheme is just generally a landmine. LTS releases typically work by maintaining a older branch that gets updates. In this way you delay features not patches. If you run Firefox on such a system it will be Firefox LTS with this week’s patches (this is kinda important for security reasons). Manjaro doesn’t do this instead it just holds everything back artificially one or two weeks.
Bluntly doing this with a browser or other security critical software should be a crime.
Manjero just generally feels very amaturish and its history of taking down Arch’s servers is not helping here.
Iran has been doing this a while on the theory they can keep the escalation controlled. Up until now though they’ve gotten lucky with not killing any US soldiers. From a domestic political situation the Biden administration will probably need to retaliate. Hopefully this won’t get too much further out of hand.
It’s worth pointing out here that this script was probably written by a human.
Edit: reporting now indicates that it was human written https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/01/george-carlins-heirs-sue-comedy-podcast-over-ai-generated-impression/
From the perspective of a computer engineer SSDs are painfully slow. Waiting for data on disk is slow enough that it is typically done by asking the OS for the data and having the OS schedule another process onto the CPU while it waits. RAM is also slow although not nearly as slow. Ideally you want your data in the L1 cache which is fast enough to minimally stall the CPU. The L2 and L3 caches are slower but larger and more likely to have the data you want. If the caches are empty and you have to read RAM your CPU will either do a lot of speculative execution or more likely stall.
Speculative execution on CPUs is a desperate attempt to deal with the fact that all memory access is slow by just continuing through the code as if you know what is in memory. If the speculative execution is wrong a lot of work gets thrown out (hopefully nothing unsound happens) and the delay is more noticable.
Bluntly an SSD only system would probably be an order of magnitude slower. I’m also not sure switching to a new process (or even thread) to load from SSD would be viable without RAM as it would likely invalidate a lot of cache triggering more loads.
if you are looking for a HURD based stable OS you are a bit out of luck.
