If it's the same kind of authors as the register, I'd wager some already do. Also I don't think those that wrote for the inquirer are the kind of copy-pushers that gave rise to this meme.
Are Z80 systems and alike very common? Seems like a niche hobby.
I'm thinking old phones, tablets, and portable computers will be more common. I keep several bootable USB drives which have lots of ebooks, audio books, videos, software, and games along with several old laptops/netbooks which were free. I also keep some of those files on microSD cards to make them accessible with tablets.
IMO collapse will be very boring so lots of books, audio files, video games, and music would be nice to have if it can be run off small off grid solar setups.
Oh who would have thought it. 2 years after this story was published he comes out this this story. Could it be at all related to the fact he has a book coming out 8th Oct based on the subject. I dont know why we fall for this media stories that just pump out because some guy the world has moved on from 2 years ago is trying to peddle a new book.
The guy works for H&M fashion in their retail division doing pretty much the same work he did for Cambridge Analytica. He was at the bylinefestival recently at which Wylie insisted on a chauffeur back and forth to his flat in London.
Demands no doubt agreed with his hollywood agent William Morris.
If you give people enough money they turn into the people that once hated and called out as a whistleblower.
He works for H&M manipulating elections? Aren't they a clothes label?
Is requesting a driver some sort of moral failing now?
Do you think that all people who publish books should not have agents, or is it something about William Morris in particular?
The diff linked in another post here shows pretty clearly that the article was changed, and everybody who wants to sell a book wants publicity (even whistleblowers). I don't understand where your hostility is coming from.
We already know exactly what's causing this, and it has nothing to do with THC or vape juice (vegetable glycerin).
These people are vaping grey market THC carts. Grey market being the operative word, because the process used to make wax relies on using butane and other heavy solvents to dissolve the plant while keeping the THC intact. These small, backyard producers are dumb as shit and don't know how to properly remove the solvents.
The electronics, drive train, Electric motors, and battery system all work together in a Tesla to make it more efficient and powerful than the competition “Right Now”. Tomorrow is another day. The custom components that make up these systems require R&D that the other car makers are still struggling to duplicate, that’s where they are at. Tesla still has a chance because of “time”. They are there already, where the others want and need to be, and Tesla will probably (because it can’t sit still to survive) continue to advance its technologies.
Quote from story: "In drawing, you try to capture both the large scale (the expanse of the forest) and the small scale (the grasses and flowers). “In mathematics, there is very much the same thing,” she said. “The hardest part with both is fitting the two scales together. You need the right tools.” " As a drawer I have been looking for a solution with how to do this because we experience both scales simultaneously when seeing the world. Thanks very much for providing this story this morning.
The building where I work has a rather large cubicle farm full of software engineers. Most of them are perfectly normal people. Men, women, black, white, Asian. We got all kinds. But there are a couple who are different.
- One guy I call "hoodie guy" wears a hoodie all the time. I live in Central GA where its 90-plus degrees and 90-plus humidity in the summer time. Hoodie Guy is still wearing the hoodie zipped up and hood up. Hoodie Guy doesn't talk to people.
- Got another guy who wears the same clothes all week. Asked him about it once; he said he bought 5 sets of the same clothes so he wouldn't have to choose in the morning. Like a uniform I guess.
- Got another guy who has a duplicate of the computer they work on at his house; this is not a PC. Its a purpose-built piece of mil-spec hardware that we put on airplanes to process data. We didn't give him one so he could code at home. He built it from doodads he picked up at surplus sales and trash heaps. Dude is hella smart.
But most of the people in cubicle hell are pretty normal.
