And based asian cyberheroes risking their entire careers shitposting on one of the chans just to prove the Dominion machines are completely insecure.

But alas, I'm bound to leave many things out. That's what the following trilogy is for.

The libtards are offended because trannybooty isn't as good as ladybooty and their feeble minds can't comprehend the source of their frustration.

So they compulsively hit the downvote button slavishly tending to the garden of their anger while we enjoy based cucumbers.

Actually, I have no idea. It just sounded good at the time, and I'm a touch sleep deprived.

I'm not sure why people are bringing up DEW. It's much easier, faster, and cheaper to just blow the kid up.

After all, if the same people who blew him up are the same people who would have tested for explosives, you can't trust their investigation.

What, you haven't seen a three car pile up explode into a ball of fire like in the movies? Happens all the time, man. I mean, I once saw an old lady get hit on the crosswalk and she erupted into a 15 story ball of flames.

...why are you laughing at me?

I almost want to say "No, because a fiction novel would have to be believable."

What's really happening right now is so far into the realm of absurdity that it'd never sell as a work of fiction. No one would believe it.

...yet here we are. Absolute clown world. Massive, demonstrable fraud. Kids getting killed in "accidents" to threaten state governors and state reps. Then a real estate mogul as president with a team of shade-throwing lawyers being the only people standing the fine line between law and order and total anarchy at the behest of China.

My mind can't take much more of this.

China doesn't care, but the solution is to probably say that if China so much as sets foot on the US soil, the entirety of China turns into a glass parking lot.

Have a friend born in that year. He also voted for Trump. Nazi obviously.

They're probably used to being emasculated though.

Think about how much of their educational life was spent listening to people lecture them on how all men are rapists, bad, etc.

I'm a developer, so using Linux is probably a territorial dispute for me (lol). Windows is too anemic in that regard since I do mostly web-centric work. But, I was also introduced to the *nix world when I was 18-19. So, you could argue I've been brain damaged for most of my life!

It always tickles me when I hear stories like yours where people just picked up probably one of the most attention-demanding distros for "fun." Although, from our brief conversation, I suspect it's also for your own interests, learning, and experience. Not many people care enough to scratch the surface much less dive deep as you have.

Thank you for sharing your story!

asks me how I dealt with such a 'hard' life. Like excuse me?

lol... wow.

I admit that one of the things that annoys me with their sentiment is that we have it really damn easy here in the US. Doesn't really matter who we are. We take it for granted.

Look at other countries where they hang people for being gay. Or torture them to death. Or shoot up churches. Or abduct and torture people for their faith. Or... well... you get the idea.

We've got to be grateful for what we have. Sure, we could do better. Everyone could. But I think what's most disappointing from the left is their fixation on all of the negatives that have happened in US history.

Under Trump though I found solace. Love for my country and my people. It's lit a fire in me.

You and me both, my friend.

I've been a repub since I registered to vote at 18. I've been a conservative all my life. I don't identify as one anymore because the neocons have ruined anything the "conservative" ideology represented. The GOPe did the rest. Over the last 4 years, I've increasingly referred to myself as a Constitutionalist.

There's really no other option for us, and I honestly hope Trump creates a separate party. Let's cast aside the shackles of identity and finally identify as Americans, first and foremost, and give a big middle finger to anyone who wants to divide us or destroy us.

I used to hate this place. Not anymore. I've seen the error in my ways.

This gives me so much hope that if we can just open hearts and minds, many more will follow in your footsteps and realize that we're not evil on the right. Many of us just want to be left alone.

I'm thinking that the left having shown their hand as authoritarian fetishists has helped recently. I don't know if it's enough. I hope so.

I want to bond over our patriotism. And fight commies together. Lol. Conservatism has certainly been hijacked by RINOs with only themselves in mind, and that's awful.

EXACTLY. On all counts, I might add.

It's all the neocons too. The Bushes. The Roves. The long litany of idiot "conservatives" who spend their time in backroom deals with the left conspiring over how to ruin the country and line their pockets with riches robbed from the treasury.

Universities have long taught that patriotism is evil. It's high time we ended that!

I appreciate your prayers and kind thoughts. Thank you for being not only a really awesome pede and Patriot, but also just a kind human.

I thank you for your hospitality, kindness, and patience. I'm long-winded, so I appreciate that you took the time to reply to everything I wrote. I really do.

I'm glad we have you on our side.

Either way, keep up offending the leftist retards who apparently don't like to be told what their "god" Obama said on video.

Amazing how they like to ignore all the stupid things their idols have uttered over the years!

Hey now, it's a fictional thought experiment! To be clear, the Venn diagram looks like a study in orbital mechanics.

(Joking aside, I think more of us actually work out than used to be the case.)

If an Arch user is also a vegan and does crossfit, which does he bring up first?

I do something similar with Gentoo. Although I run it inside an LXD container these days. If you ever move on from the Gentoo partition, LXD is a good option.

Also, it's possible to run GUI applications remotely if you're running xorg still, so you could run things from inside the Gentoo container if you had a need/interest/vague insanity sufficient to do so. I've actually done this with a couple of applications that had way too many dependencies in the AUR, and I got tired of trying to build everything (Xiphos is a pain). That, and I started pushing my AUR builds into separate containers for isolation (or maybe paranoia?) reasons. So, spin up a Debian or Ubuntu instance in LXD, install the .deb, and run it via remote xproto instead.

I think it might be possible to do with Wayland, but I'm not entirely sure how well their RDP works at this point in time. I also don't run Wayland either, so...

Wikipedia isn't that bad, but it heavily depends on what you're looking for. Worst case, looking at the references is a good start. For technology, it's actually halfway decent, otherwise you're left trawling through their marketing copy, press releases, and more, half of which is worth discarding.

One of the other options might be to look for anyone who has reverse-engineered the protocol, firmware, etc., which fortunately it looks like has been done or is a work-in-progress (newer hardware):

https://lekensteyn.nl/logitech-unifying.html

https://aylo6061.com/2011/11/01/reverse-engineering-logitech-unifying-usb-protocol/ (2011 warning)

https://www.reddit.com/r/LiveOverflow/comments/g8ajed/reverse_engineering_of_logitech_unifying_firmware/ (reddit exploration thread from 7 months ago)

Be aware that you'll get more out of it if you're familiar with the USB subsystems (HID++), C, the Linux kernel, and probably x86 disassembler output. Also, it's helpful to understand that outside open source drivers mainlined into Linux, Logitech no doubt guards their firmware fairly closely, so most of the information that's out there (including on Wikipedia) has been sourced from people who have disassembled or reverse engineered it.

Interestingly, the reddit user claims that the dongle uses AES in ECB mode which is a notoriously stupid idea, so it surprises me they don't use it in CBC or GCM mode. If they used GCM, they would have gotten packet authentication as part of the block cipher.

If cryptography interests you, a good introduction to it is Bruce Schneier's Applied Cryptography.

Meh. I voted for Bush. Twice. I deeply regret it in retrospect. We all make mistakes (but at least some of us learn from them!).

I justify it by suggesting it was a choice between two idiots with the lesser of evils being a toss-up (and because I feel Democrats are evil).

Problem is, the Bushes were every much a part of the evil hegemony as anyone else. It's just that it took Trump to shine the light on these roaches.

Oh lawd. I want to vomit a little, not gonna lie.

That's another area that needs to be well manicured! No hedge trimmers wanted!

...or one of these in particularly egregious cases.
