Lol. I would suspect that being Peter Capaldi might be more fun than being me, in some specific situations.

Rock on, I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

From personal experience, these kinds of things are usually based on "security by obscurity" and is just a matter of pushing the right buttons in a specific order.

Unless hardware fuses are physically blown, there is usually a chance. While possible, I don't think any laptop manufacturer would implement that functionality without an expensive, special order contract.

One is a model "A1989" and another is "A2159", both of which are at least from 2018.

I believe I got them to a state where the recovery OS was re-installed? I am charging them now to get more information.

While I don't know exactly what happened here, if the pan was dry or all the moisture was cooked out of the food, there isn't really much to dissipate heat.

If this pan was a cheap alloy, it was possible that it had a low melting temperature. If the stove was on high, the pan will eventually get as hot as the stove allowing it to melt or at least, collapse under its own weight.

Yeah, personally, I have questions about the luhn check myself. (I am not in a state to research more this evening, unfortunately.)

There are several more that aren't used. There are a few reserved for promotions or movies and such. 666, 900-999 and 000 numbers are out as well.

I believe that SSNs have to pass a luhn check too.

It is partially the land sure, but don't forget where the main natural gas reserves are in Ukraine. It's not a coincidence that Russia has been specifically targeting Donbass for years now.

The entire function of Crimea is to help form a land bridge to grab those resources.

Edit: It's obvious by the removed comments that Russian Nazis are in control of this sub. I have as much proof of that as that Kremlin shill does that we are replying to.

And also, the US and Europe are having to fund the infrastructure repairs in Ukraine as well. You seem to not notice that Russia is specifically targeting civilian infrastructure before winter.

Russia has clearly stated, multiple times, that Ukraine is basically a gateway into Poland. From that perspective, it makes perfect sense to suppress Putin's efforts in Ukraine.

Russia shouldn't be invading countries period, actually.

Estimated Russian army spending is between $85-$105 billion USD. (This has likely skyrocketed since that that estimate was taken as Russia has transitioned to a wartime economy.)

Chinese? ~$212-$230 billion USD.

Spending on military is better put in context of GDP, and actual spending is going to be very different than published or even estimated numbers. (It's likely much more, is what I am implying.)

I actually agree that this money is better spent on social welfare. It's a stupid situation across the board and many countries are guilty of this disparity.

For better or for worse, much of that money goes back into the overall economy of the country supplying the aid. Not all, but most. (This can get complicated due to the lifespan of specific types of munitions.)

What I am saying is that there is a ton of blame to pass around and poking at one country or another is an agenda, not a solution.

The more Russian stuff evaporates, the better. And no, I don't give a fuck who decides to do it.
