I heard that somewhere in the US there were parts of a nuclear power plant being delivered by steam train. So that’s basically one steam engine supplying another! (^^,)

I can’t seem to find an article about it anywhere, so it might be an urban legend :(

Pretty much, yeah.

I’d recommend using two physical drives (SSD/HDD) instead of two partitions if you can, because windows update sometimes messes with the bootloader. But most laptops only have one drive so that’s not always possible.

Do keep in mind that formatting a drive (e.g. to split it in partitions) will erase all the data, so make sure you have backups!

In the last few years, Valve (company behind the popular Steam PC games store) has made huuuge efforts in making most games work well on Linux, because the Steam Deck console that they sell runs on Linux, and the compatibility layer they made is called Proton.

To check what games work well on Linux you should look in the ProtonDB.

If there are games that only work on Windows, you could do dual booting.

The question was about client trust, which the server doesn’t. If the shot wasn’t possible, it’s not valid and did not happen.

how do you design a server to be “better” if it has to trust data from a remote client?

Because it doesn’t have to.

The linux kernel contains more profanity than this meme…

Ah yes, that’s the difference. Thanks!

But then they’re drinking irradiated water, no?

Unless it’s really easy to remove the radiation safely, this doesn’t seem like the right solution.

It was new to me too, but a (code) forge is essentially a VCS server with stuff like a wiki and issue tracking. So think GitLab, GoGS/Gitea/Forgejo, BitBucket and all the others.

 
 

Tweet is from around February 2022; I’m not visiting that cesspool to find the exact date.
