What has the EU ever done for us?

I hope the passengers are not being disturbed by the noise of the machines the owner of that house is using for his agriculture.

Friend of mine runs Linux on a 15 years old cheap consumer laptop, and it’s working smoothly for browsing.

Just try. There’s no risk and no costs trying. Have fun.

Let them waste their money over here, the more the better.

That’s in fact the point I was making, in this case about SSDs. Low prices don’t help with reliability as producers use the worse part of a production run for the cheaper brands (friend of mine works for a European based manufacturer of silicon chips, and he can tell stories about the finicky processes around that tiny stuff and how they try to make the most of it).

I immediately get happier when I see it.

Your reading comprehension is a bit off - I didn’t write that I only read the title, I wrote that I commented on the title.

The rest of your rant is up to you.

Don’t be scared. Just don’t fall for posts which try to get the impossible. It’s not that difficult.

I commented on the title of your post - nobody with some knowledge in that field (as you claim to have) would phrase that question that way.

Be offended, I can’t change that - but pointing out the obvious may help others to not make the mistake of hoping that there’s cheap good.

There isn’t.

You mean “cheap or reliable”. And even with the better brands it’s always the question not if but when a device will fail.

Propaganda is really getting dumber. The shit they make up looks like an accident of a bunch of clown cars.

Nostalgia.

This comes after mankind already has come a long way.

Don’t start a business without a plan to handle all the stuff that is not your product.

If you are good at whatever your product is you are not automatically good at building and leading an enterprise (a company), and that may destroy your ambitions… In other words: Even if you have a very promising product you may fail due to completely unrelated organisational hassles because starting a business will drag you into processes that will drain ressources and your brain for completely different stuff, be it financial, legal, hiring and firing staff, customers (customers…), renting, ordering, offering, paper works, ecology and what not.

This shit can and will hurt, in the core meaning of the word, if you are not prepared.

It doesn’t matter if he gets enough votes.

Thanks for your service. I enjoy it over here. Keep on with the good stuff!

The security breach was caused by idiocy - you don’t use Cisco malware WebEx for discussions about national security.

Those who made them use this crap should be demoted.

They show you the inside of their head and the maximum of their imagination and creativity.

It simply is a warning so you can walk away unharmed. Be thankful they do this.
