    The argument for "it shouldn't" could be that it's a federal supplier and/or some sort of RnD exception. Not sure if NIST would even sell to a private buyer.

    Shows $508 for 2 cartons, so 254 per. NY has probably most expensive smokes, ranging $140-155 per carton

    You can use raw wireguard + ddns(if your ISP-given IP changes) to achieve this. This also implies maintaining a firewall to allow network pixies in and out. Totally doable, just ne…

    That's your right, but the problem is that cameras are in public and some people do mind this.

    I'd pay top dollar for an adblocker that would replace ads with "They Live" references

    Folks are already walking (and driving, which is more scary) in a daze, glued to their doomscrolling rectangles

    I can totally see Internet availabilit correlating with the rise of unwanted stuff in the install. Believe it started with 3rd party games being part of the OS at first. I don't re…

    Moving 15 years back puts you into glory Win7 days. IIRC, the spam started with win8 which was released ~13 years ago and was very mild at first

    Same, I had reasonable success with LLM-generated OpenSCAD files fed into prusa slicer. Just needs a few manual tweaks for spatial transforms from time to time.

    How would one know though by just looking at the device? I have chassis that came with Intel 11th gen, but the brainboxery, keyboard, battery, touchpad -- all have been swapped ove…

    Shooting holes in pressurized vessels with explosive stuff is probably a very bad idea, as outlined in my comment[1]. Slowly loosening a valve is a better idea. That being said, in…

    IIUC, the stuff inside is polymerizing, turning into goop that gummed everything up. It was probably not goop when used for the original purpose
