Unfortunately turning on an MRI and building up the magnetic field takes hours

Typical dual-use problem. The best you can do is try and close any black import routes you find, and try to disable or disconnect base stations moving faster than 150 km/h.

Similar to how commercial civilian GPS clients shut off when moving at high speeds, except even better if you can do it from the satellite, so the client can't be modded as a workaround.

I feel like this thread is missing Australians and Kiwis saying that it's neither /ˈdeɪtə/ nor /ˈdætə/ but actually /ˈdɐːtə/. One of the Australian post docs in the group in which I did my thesis used that last one.

Ohh nice, that table helps. I felt like something was off about people sometimes using more /ði:/ than what I was taught!

Is it OK to simply dd the 128GB disk to the 32GB disk using count to stop after the 16GB partition was cloned?

I think it would work, but it seems a little overcomplicated, you can just use the partition paths as if and of of dd directly, as long as the output partition is not smaller than the input partition. For example dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=/dev/sdd1 bs=4M status=progress

Your method would also copy the partition table I suppose, which might be something you want under specific circumstances, but then it would be a little harder to get the count right, just taking the size of partition 1 would be wrong, because there is some space before it (where the partition table lives) and dd would start at 0. You'd need to add up the start position and the size of partition 1 instead.

Personally I would prefer making a new partition table on the new eMCC, and create a target partition on it. Then you clone the content of the partition (i.e. the file system). This way the file system UUID will still be the same, and the fstab should still work because these days it usually refers to mounts by filesystem UUID in my experience.

If you make the target partition larger than the source partition, and you intend to use the full partition going forward you will additionally need to resize the filesystem to fit the new larger partition, for example with resize2fs.

Sure, and the promo was 14.98 first and was then changed to 14.88 after 12 days by accident? All just happenstance?

I won't detail everything again here, please let me refer you to my comment from when the story broke:

In laptops the internal screen is usually attached over embedded Displayport (eDP) could be the same here. "native" doesn't really say much.

To which I said something like ‘But all that does is highlight the problem without actually changing the situation.’

I think the idea is, that the minimally invasive regulation only has to fix the information imbalance between producer and consumer. Then, once the consumer has all the information, they can make an informed racional market actor descision. That's supposed to price shitty rip offs out of the market eventually.

... yeah I don't believe it works either.

[Der Landesbauernverband in Baden-Württemberg] teilte dem SWR auf Anfrage mit, der Fall aus Kupferzell sei "der erste und bisher einzige, von dem wir in diesem Jahr gehört haben." Glücklicherweise handele es sich nur um seltene Einzelfälle - und über die Motive, warum jemand so etwas mache, könne man nur spekulieren.

Dann ist das Problem also klein? Seltsamer Titel.

Because we humans are very bad at putting in an accurate search such as: name:"60w" and description:"standby".

I actually really like to do that. These days that only seems to work for flights and hentai though.

Maybe if it was more available and people were taught to use it it could be a little more popular. I think fundamentally it's not such a foreign concept to say that you want specific things from specific categories. People do that kind of thinking routinely when searching for homes or cars.

Blue laws

Are they called that because they relate to blue balling?
