if the Democrats truly understood the minimum wage would be $20 or more

In Democrat-controlled California, the minimum wage for fast food workers is $20: https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/minimum_wage.htm

Right, I just meant that you can't sudo cat file > /dev/sda but you can sudo dd ..., because IO redirection isn't elevated to root with sudo. I'm not saying anything too profound :)

to identify I'm a citizen.

It's kinda worse than that


it's used to authenticate yourself as a citizen.

My SSN should at most be an ID, no different from a name. I can identify myself as Darth Vader or 4200-69-1337, but that shouldn't matter, because I should never be able to authenticate myself as either of those.

But the endian switches for the teens


twenty three is "tens place ones place," but thirteen is "ones place tens place."

I just checked, and the company website page on my relatively high end carbon bike has a listed max weight (rider+bike+equipment) of 120kg. Easy enough to find on the page.

That said...were I close to that limit, I think I'd opt for a steel bike, or maybe titanium if I have the money. Carbon is amazing but its failure mechanism isn't pretty.

Compiling a kernel yourself isn't a big deal these days, especially with DKMS. Generally the type of people I've encountered who care about which kernel version they're usiyare the type of people who are capable of compiling it themselves...

One caveat is that you will need write access to the drive, which probably means you need to run as root


can't run that with sudo as-is, unlike dd.

Also a super useful tool for measuring real world bandwidth, both on physical media and over the network ( dd status=progress ... | nc ...).

Oh go fsck yourself (maybe that works better written...).
