Psst… I’ll give you a $10 if you give me some fish, but don’t tell anyone that you passed it along to your fish-vendor.

I was going to make a joke about that meaning having a set of car keys on your person would be driving, but then I remembered that people HAVE been arrested for drunk driving a parked car, simply because they were sitting in that car with the keys on their person. Our legal system…
Neat, but sounds like bad legal advice. Last time I looked it up, it said something like “possessing a firearm on or about one’s person”… so it doesn’t matter if it’s attached to your dog or pulled behind you on a skateboard or held in mid-air using some kind of hovering drone… if it is near you and under your control, you have it.
IMO, the interesting case would be if the weapon is stored in your home (where nobody questions it may be), and you can summon it.
Consider using a non-intel PCIe card for networking.

3·14 days agoIf only there were some kind of… I don’t know… ‘market’… where you could sell your unwanted ‘stock’ of oil to the highest bidder… at a reduced price, given the urgency.
I’m told if you take the top and/or door off, it’s a bit easier to acclimate them to it.
Good posture is VERY important in this case.
The weight distribution of second one looks… unstable… probably too top-heavy to be effective.

I seem to recall reading that, but I think you have the wrong impression. I’m pretty sure it’s just there build system. They have always had two (one private for the paid stuff), and now they are just building everything “in private” not removing any source.
There are many projects that do not have open build systems, and I can understand them eanting to cut costs and simplify infrastructure.
e.g. just because redhat has a private build system and tries to restrict access to their binaries, that does not make them closed-source.

2·1 month agoBravo. Can’t believe it has taken this long for a gov’t to realize storing everything in a poorly obfuscated format makes no sense.
That could be a great “subversion of expectations” scene in a tv show or movie.
Shoot… I would have not built a wind farm for only a million!
