I’ve used old laptops as battery backed up NAS boxes.
Obviously assumes that you can install a reasonably large drive and that the battery still has some life left in it.

besides the direct deaths and injuries, this attack also targeted lines of communication and trust
Exactly. The psychological impact of this attack should not be underestimated.
It will have Hamas’ leadership and operatives second guessing so many of the mundane things that they interact with on a daily basis.
unlike most terrorism it does not target civilians.
Also, unlike most of the IDF attacks.
Not everyone will use every coupon in the book
Most people don’t use most of the coupons. And the company bets on that, no matter what the *potential * value of the coupons is.
It’s the same with mail-in rebates. The promise of them can drive additional sales, but since 40-60% never get claimed, it’s just extra profits at the end of the day.
Any of those should have sunk a normal person’s political ambitions.
The fact that Trump somehow seems to be immune from the normal realities of society is frustrating.
He died in jail.
Maybe Trump could follow in his footsteps?
it would now look like anything and everything interests you
That could get you on some interesting lists.
Personally, I’d rather not have any database think I was interested in certain topics, no matter how false that data is.
It seemed odd to me that a Web site could write to or read from the clipboard without the user approving it
Yeah, that’s a security hole that I hadn’t been aware of.
Paid for it? Hardly.
He didn’t even put up his own money for bail.
He’s been called “Teflon Don” for decades.
I can’t understand how so many people still fall for his bullshit.
We knew he was a lying sack of shit back in the '80s before he got that stupid TV show.
AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks’ databases
Do those clicks appear to be coming from me, or from some random fake identity?
False floods of data or not, there are some things I’d rather not have any identifiable contact with at all.
It happens in any country that has immigrants.
That combined with a lack of available housing are the answers I see most often.
What we want doesn’t have any impact on what our corporate overlords decide to inflict on us.
I tried FreeBSD many years ago (back when I was on dialup and bought a book with the FreeBSD install CD included…).
At the time it was interesting to tinker with, and I did use it as a dual-boot on my Win95 computer, but I moved on to Linux when Knoppix came along.
At the time linux seemed more end user friendly.
Maybe I should spin up an install just for nostalgia sake, and to see where it’s at these days.
There’s a blast from the past.
Pretty much.
Just reverse this shape by a few months.
Complains about the crap on Facebook by re-posting that same crap to lemmy…

I manage to avoid all that crap on Facebook by… not using Facebook.
If it’s so full of garbage, what’s the attraction? Why keep going there?
Ford stopped making the types of vehicles I want to own several years ago.
Until my current vehicle, every previous vehicle (over a period of 43 years) I’ve owned was a small, low options, affordable, fuel efficient 4 cylinder Ford.
Since they stopped making anything like that to focus on F150s and bigger, I now own a Corolla.
When I worked for a cell company, our on-call technicians carried a pager that was on a different company’s network.
