Thinkpad T60. A relative of mine got it from their employer, IBM, as a decommisioned machine that was only used by said relative. I was 4 years old. I played hours of GTA: San Andreas, then about a year later I installed Ubuntu which sent me down the Linux and C programming rabbit hole. I learned so much. Thank you, kind relative (whom I'll not name, not doxxing myself).
Me downloading this meme knowing it will end up unlooked at, just like the hundreds of memes before it.
Why? Never heard of it but it seems similar to Tails. I'd rather use Tails than something I've never heard about, but is there anything inherently wrong with it?
Can someone please explain? Does the US only have two political parties? That sounds horrendously undemocratic. I know next to nothing about US politics so I may be wrong.
Edit: Also, why is one party called "Democratic" and the other "Republican"? Does this make the Republican party non-democratic? Is this a non-official naming scheme that people created or does seriously only one of them support democracy? Thank you for the answers :)
Everyone has been polarised into an "Us vs Them" mindset. Keep us divided and channeling our collective rage at each other, lest we actually find power in our overwhelming numbers. It hurts.
I'm ready to get downvoted, but this is exactly the reason I'm incredibly sceptical about any conflicts going on, including wars. I just think the possibility of the "two sides" working together just to polarize society is too goddamn high. But of course, as soon as you bring a subject like this into a discussion, you immediately get bombarded with the "you are against my idea so you're an extremist" kind of vocabulary... For example: "Omg you're pro-russian" - meanwhile I volunteer to help Ukrainian people, but I guess I love Russia when I do that. Shit's wild...
I never needed hardcore anonymity but I was always sceptical why people think Briar is anonymous when it uses Bluetooth. Now that I know that the MAC is shared even without using Bluetooth, I'm even more confused. Thanks for the info.
Nothing, really. I only check the chats with my best friends, look at the time, and check the school timetable (I do have it on paper, but they always make some changes and then I'm the idiot for going to the wrong class...)
