Maybe because that is more dangerous than any other use?

Unfortunately, there are plenty enough humans to come up with stupid shit like this.

Drivers are included in the kernel, you will always have them.

More often than not, it is the companies themselves that commit drivers for their hardware to the Linux kernel

As your own quote says, we can at least hope that if it passes, it will be found illegal by the courts and get rescinded.

Can you cite some literature to back up that claim? Stating that something like acceptable clock synchronisation (a well established and appreciated method in the measurements of physical effects) is impossible in and of itself is something so bold that no one can just take your word for it.

If you move one clock very slowly away from the other, the error is minimised, perhaps even to a degree that allows for statistically significant measurements.

To cite the Wikipedia entry that one of the other commenters linked:

“The clocks can remain synchronized to an arbitrary accuracy by moving them sufficiently slowly. If it is taken that, if moved slowly, the clocks remain synchronized at all times, even when separated, this method can be used to synchronize two spatially separated clocks.”

One-Way Speed of Light

Synchronise two high-precision clocks at different locations. Transmit the signal from A to a receiver at B and then send a signal back (or reflect the initial signal) from B to A. Both locations will record the synchronised time that their sensors picked up the transmission. Then, compare their clocks.

Your brain is also “just” matching inputs to outputs using complex statistics, a huge number of interconnects and clever digital-analog mixed ionic circuitry.

This is so stupid. He’s not a pedo, the things he said were taken out of context (they were bad, but not that bad), and he has long apologised for his comments. People like you that are trying to smear his reputation without any regard for facts, cautiousness and ambivalence are so irrational that it almost appears as if you are getting paid for it.

I’d call that a win

Well, they’ve been going on for a couple of years now, Master Jedi

No, that is not the reason. Many people prefer multiple pages for reading long-form online articles. Also quite common on major newspapers.

Okay, but Ephera’s comment was about the (non-)vegan ingredients.

Why could you not run a modern OS after a couple of years? Those SBC manufacturers did not invent an entirely new processor architecture for their computers, you can just generically compile the kernel (plus maybe some slight device tree work).

They already have that proprietary and opaque GPU that has full memory access akin to the Intel ME, and its programming is very difficult to audit. There has been something quite fishy about them ever since they left their educational mission behind after the Pi 1 and went for-profit.

That would be vegan though

I love GIMP and I will die on that hill

Thank you for saying that out loud. I always find the GIMP hate to be phenomenally ridiculous. I love GIMP too.

Principally it is possible if you can iterate over all the posts and comments and inject them into the database of their new home.

What you are not considering is that silicon crystallisation and the PV panel manufacturing process in its entirety are very resource-intensive and energy-intensive. The longevity of solar panels is one of their core properties that contribute to their high degree of sustainability.
