Unfortunately many North Koreans already leave the country to work as slaves for construction companies, factories, etc (including in Europe). Generally they only allow people out who have families back home to be tortured/killed in case they defect.

They will probably get some, but less than you might expect.

Interesting, I'll give it a shot on my next rig. Looks like it came out after I'd already gotten comfy with Manjaro.

Can't say with my use case I've run into any of those issues, though the cert stuff sounds kinda gnarly, especially to happen more than once.

Genuine question, what are your criticisms of Manjaro? I've been on it since about 2019, and haven't had any major complaints.

For me, it feels like the best mix of features I've found so far. Pacman, AUR, very up-to-date repos, and Archwiki, without a lot of the major PITA manual labor I experienced with Arch. No shade on Arch, I just don't have time in my life to constantly be tinkering and fixing basic stuff I want to just work.

Curious why some people recommend against Manjaro now.

I wouldn't be surprised if part of this remaining value is because the Japanese internet still heavily relies on it as a platform, even if the west has begun moving elsewhere.

Waiting for 9000 X3D. For most people, 7800X3D is more performant than anything 9000 series.

Unfortunately, bodycam videos often contain private info (nudity, PII, graphic scenes, etc), and need to be put through a censor before being made available to the public. So someone like a police chief has the power to cover something up pretty easily. An agency is only as honest as the ones with the power to control which videos make it out to the public.

Nonetheless, I support putting those features on all officers too. Even if it's not perfect, it does improve things, and put a feeling of surveillance on the officers.

My guess is that in a climate like Germany's, solar isn't consistent enough to provide the steady baseline power that coal plants can.

One of the complexities of power infrastructure is that demand must be met instantaneously and exactly. Coal and solar typically occupy different roles in a grid's power sources. Coal plants are slow to start, but very consistent, so they provide baseline power. Solar is virtually instantaneous, but inconsistent, so it's better suited to handle the daily fluctuations.

So, in a place like Germany, even in abundance, solar can't realistically replace coal until we have a good way of storing power to act as a buffer. Of course, nuclear is a fantastic replacement for coal, but we all know how Germany's politicians feel about it...

This is exactly how machine learning works

Yeah I'm just surprised how fast that is, dang
