@bob @privacy @alice Unlike the public inquiry into Hillsborough, Amber Rudd the then Home Secretary ruled out a public inquiry into police brutality at Orgreave. - despite the same South Yorkshire police being responsible for both.

Oopsie, the old Intel PowerMac I was using as a workstation at work (running Linux) has died. Not economical to fix. Need a replacement with lots of cores. Something Threadripper based maybe - but worried about Linux support.

@moonman Seems a beautiful place. If you want to read about travels in nearby regions, I recommend Eric Newby's "A Short Walk in the Hindu Kush" - Afghanistan rather than India/Pakistan but similar neck of the woods. Written in the 1950s, before the Soviet invasion.

@bob @privacy @alice Remember when the BBC reported the Battle of Orgreave in the mid 1980s? They reversed the sequence of footage to show the miners attacking the police first, when it happened the other way round. BBC reports opened with image of a miner kicking a policeman, rather than police intimidation and brutality against miners.

Using sex to sell not always equal to selling sex. And even if you are, many are trafficked, exploited or stuck in a cycle of poverty/prison/drugs. Tarring all people with the same brush...

@kemonine@social.holdmybeer.solutions @dadegroot @AnnaGerber @hattiecat Thanks. Looks good and the price is right but I might need a bit more memory.

@maiyannah Why should I treat whores any differently from anybody else? I.e. with basic respect as a fellow human being.

@mayuutann @shpuld This is my experience too - very hard to add JP localization to a US environment with keyboard setup, character conversion etc. Much easier to install OS in JP mode.

@thatbrickster I'm always trying to learn something new - new concepts, ways of thinking. Stretch myself. If you're not in a stimulating environment then time to leave.

@thatbrickster And probably contracted out to the firm owned by the sister of the council leader...

I've basically concluded that small single-board computers make reasonable small server devices with 4 x RPi on my home network. But the memory and I/O of even the RPi 3 are too constrained for heavier processing loads so I'm looking for something with ARM or other RISC multicore CPU, 4GB memory, SATA ports and/or USB3. Any suggestions?

Interesting theory on why Intel(R) will never let users disable the Management Engine - Hollywood DRM. Summary: "x86 is a dead end from the end-user control perspective".

@vertigo @h Another Naggum quote:
"I have actually programmed a fair bit in Perl, like I have C++ code published with my name on it. Other things I have tried and have no intention to do again if I can at all avoid it include smoking, getting drunk enough to puke and waste the whole next day with hang-over, breaking a leg in a violent car crash, getting mugged in New York City, or travel with Aeroflot."

@h The F-35 software is written in it. And look how well that's going...
