It was a little different, because the quests were procedurally generated. Unfortunately most of them were pretty boring, being either a "fetch the item" or "kill the bandits" quest. I don't know another major game that did that.

Yeah it doesn't look at file extensions. Block the release group name. Those releases are malware.

He said it himself:

When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same. The temperament is not that different.

Check the backplane before you buy drives or an HBA. The N3's backplane just has SATA ports and molex power, you'd have to swap out the whole backplane and hack something together. The N1 and N2 are probably similar.

Or if you're just in the wrong place at the wrong time, especially when they need to make a quota.

I know in the US, local government, schools, universities, etc. will hold surplus sales when they get rid of old equipment. Maybe you can see if they do something similar near you?

You might also compare the price of a local system vs cloud hosting. That might work out to be cheaper.

Fortunately I haven't had to do this for anything like my bank app or its multifactor code app, but yeah it would be like that. For apps not published on the play store, they continue working.

I have a Jonsbo N3 and I've been happy with it so far. The N1 and N2 only fit four drives, so if you want more, you'll have to get the N3 as well. And you'll have to get an HBA or something, because your motherboard will probably only have four SATA ports.

The biggest power draw will be the drives, also. And you don't really need ECC on the desktop; random bit flips are uncommon and rarely significant when they happen. Your filesystem and/or RAID should protect against disk corruption.

Kevlar isn't magic. For a pistol round, it might absorb a bunch of the energy, but it's still like getting kicked in the chest by a horse. And that's only for one. Or, if they're ceramic plates, they become much less effective after the first impact.

And that's for a pistol. Consider if they come to the wrong house and the person at the door has a shotgun.

Interactiviry seems to be a good thing. What brings you to participate here on Lemmy?

The other country has to be willing to receive them. In this case, the US would probably not.

But countries like El Salvador are being paid by the US to take these people, so they don't really care about the facts, they just want the money.

Police shouldn't be allowed to hide their identities. They are supposed to be accountable to the public.

Otherwise I'm pretty meh on masks. Neo-nazis might wear them, but then so do Antifa. It's for the same reason, so I'm hesitant to condemn one group for doing it and praising the other. (Neo-nazis should be condemned just for being Nazis anyway.)
