Never Oracle

PostgreSQL is fine (or any fsf licensed Database is acceptable)

Well it is true hardware implants and hardware replacements can’t be fixed by flashing but they are detectable and they can only deploy so many of those before everything is a major news story and if you feel that the odds are that high, making one’s own hardware is an option but generally not a good one.

Who cares if you can flash the firmware (which will remove any thing that they might be able to do)

That would be database design

What if Roko’s Basilisk will be created by a poor gifted child who only is able to do so due to a robust social welfare safety net and who’s timing of birth would require their mother to have access to birth control and reproductive health care.

Well dildo copters exist, so it would only take one or two people to make a swarm of taco copters in time.

I just hope that they don’t spray hot sauce, that would be a bit too spicy.

Don’t have any games that require those. So never ran into that problem. But I can imagine there are potential games/apps people would want that can’t run on Linux. Windows VMs might be a solution but I don’t know as I never had to deal with that.

Steam, wine and dosbox with them, you can effectively play any game worth playing. Beyond that I never needed to know.

According to my husband. If one could get the raw data. It would be trivial. One could run it all on a single raspberry pi if one did some engineering.

Guess they never heard of live-bootstrap

It happens, it’ll be fine. Just remember not to stress out too hard about it and it’ll be fine. The solar punk community knows how to survive a server outage in style.

You forgot fighting against fascism
