Currently in France police+army is mostly made up of right-wing supporters, many of whom are vocal (at least in their circles) about the need for a civil war and mass killing of arab/muslim population. A military+police coup would probably result in a right-wing dictatorship with genocide of the...

They also don't train your immune system to defend against a specific pathogen, so they aren't vaccines by any commonly agreed definition of the term.

There are already a few companies producing velocars. With newer, lighter material and optional electric assist, they can be a real alternative to cars if you only use it for urban/short distance travels.

For those who only have a Pandora, it works as well. You just have to use the CodeBlocks PND to compile it (and the libGL) and have to play with command line options to run things.

The efficiency and competency/efficiency of the nazis is a myth. The nazi party was all about the leader. Everyone else had to compete with each other to be in the leader's good grace so that they could get their ideas approved. It was a highly corrupt bureaucratic mess, important decisions...

Finished Front Mission: Gun Hazard (SNES) on my Pandora, it's a spin-off of the "Front Mission" tactical-RPG series, a series about mechs fighting each other. It looks more like an action platformer but still has many aspects from a RPG, such as XP, equipment updates and healing items. That has...

I agree with you. It's not hard to get a modem working on Linux, but for a phone you want a ton of battery-saving optimisations so that your OS and modem don't drain your battery. Also on the software side, good calls and messaging handling isn't as easy as it sounds. But it's good to have a...

That's the point: they just need to give you $40 for you to have $65. ;)

What's important to understand is that you need to be prepared. On higher difficulty levels, all the stuff you can craft to give bonuses against some enemies aren't optional. At least until you unlock the magic spells.

That's because ED was standing behind the invisible man.

New features do introduce new vulnerabilities, but since they're new, they need time before they are discovered and exploited. While your old version is likely to have an old vulnerability that has been disclosed publicly and that can be exploited by easily accessible hacking toolkits. Ideally...

Looks like Crusader Kings

They are. Capcom games were really good, Konami had a few good ones as well, and I have a soft spot for Taito's very campy "Growl" I've finished Super Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World. They're both great games. I think the 3rd is my favorite. It builds on the classic formula and add just...

Not really. There are security vulnerabilities, and some of them are pretty dangerous and exploitable by many actors, especially now that criminal organisations have added hacking/ransomware to their portfolio. Software providers don't need to use FUD to get users to get the latest code: they...

What's your threat model? This guide is the equivalent of a guide explaining how to turn your house into a fortress. Some people might need it, but a locked door and closed windows will be enough for most people. Some will want to have a security door and/or an alarm system and/or a secure...

Not yet. I'll add it to my "to play" list.

Finished Super Mario Bros 2 (the US/EU one, not "The Lost Levels"). It's fun. I've only played with Toad since I felt that his shorter jumps handled better than the other characters' jumps. There are many levels with vertical scrolling and also some "puzzles" that offer a nice break from plain...

Sure it is, but it's easier to do when you have a two-way communication that can use Diffie-Hellman to exchange new keys.

Pagers are (or at least were as of ten years ago) still used by drug dealers because they can't be tracked. The flip side is that messages are broadcasted and can be intercepted by everyone. Encryption could help, but key management has to be done properly.

You could also play the first SpecOps game. The last missions were set in Afghanistan, the first one had you fight with the mujahidins against the anti-mujahidins and the next had you side with the anti-mujahidin against the mujahidins (while still playing the same character). I remember that...
