It’s being done, but the party itself never crosses a hard line into fascism. Individual party members do, even up to ministerial level in the few states where they got sufficient votes to have some official functions, but then the party distances itself from those individuals and kicks them out. That way they have taken official responsibility and are immune to prosecution themselves.

That’s why I said “essentially”. The data is no longer accessible by the system, which is all that’s needed to prevent malicious files from being executed.

Deleting all existing partitions via the installer is already enough. Once a new partition is created, all files are essentially wiped.

Ask a local vet or shelter if you can borrow a cat trap. Else it takes a long time and patience to get the cat to trust you.

The German one is the sound of my childhood. Haven’t heard it since though.

Nope, Malaysia. I’ve traded a crazy hustle for quality of life.

As long as the loans aren’t paid off though, running the stock into the ground would result in margin calls. An empire built on borrowed money with loans secured only through the value of the empire itself can be a fragile construct.

Location, location, location. I’m living a great life, missing nothing, and my monthly expenses are below $1500 a month (excluding travels, including medical insurance). That’s for a 2 person household in a 1600ft² 4BR rental house nearby a larger city (350k population).

ASUS RT-AX88U with Merlin firmware. Running stable since 2019 or so.

Sure, it’s being done. Xiaomi TVs have custom ROMs available, and I’m sure a bunch of others. Thing is, state of the art TVs are are not exactly cheap, and you need one to hack it in the first place. Most hackers do it for free, so they can’t exactly go on a spending spree.

Sure, waste electricity while being unable to use the TV as intended, and cause some additional wear & tear. Great idea.

The regular shield does just fine for me, I can attach hard drives to my router and mount them as smb shares, and then access movies with VLC Player.

Smart Tube Next is developed for TV only. Works like a charm.

Don’t use the .com website with the same name!

That’s been discontinued, Tubular is the active fork.

That’s not what this is about, the article is simply garbage. They are enforcing a kernel level anti-cheating system that is incompatible with Linux (where no third party gets kernel access, and rightly so). This locks out all Linux players, including Steam Deck.

How about you tell us which show, that way at least someone might have a pointer for you.

Ed Sheeran. Specifically because he’s not an actor and would stumble through the movie just like I stumbled through life. All ginger, no plan.

All fair and good, but that kid has been named without government interference, so the name is legally given. So they shouldn’t be able to then deny an identification document later.

Wait, aren’t you allowed to receive your salary in cash? As long as your employer deducts your income tax and social security contributions accordingly, there is nothing illegal about this procedure. It’s uncommon for sure, but not impossible.

Mozilla doesn’t operate a VPN, they are just a reseller for a branded Mullvad version. For them it’s merely an extra income stream with next to no maintenance, so that is something I can approve of. Mullvad is pretty amazing (though cheaper than through Mozilla).
