    Back in the day I wanted to be a 1337 hAx0R so I installed Linux to get my wifi adapter into monitor mode so I could pwn wifi. Eventually I just didn’t leave Linux, probably in part because a few friends of mine ran it and refused to run Windows, we used to have LAN parties fairly regularly so yeah just convenient.













  • That’s how the US military is though oddly enough. It’s effectively run very bureaucratically outside combat zones. If everyone wasn’t wearing uniforms you could mistake it easily for a regular business operating out of a bunch of run down buildings that offered free housing and healthcare, and if you signed up before 2018 or so and did 20 years you are guaranteed your salary for life. (2018(ish) the military switched to a 401k with match system)

    It’s a solid social safety net in a country where the other social safety net (social security) doesn’t pay enough to live really and the healthcare through Medicare/Medicaid barely takes care of you.


  • Original author retains the right to re-license anything they release. So for example I’ve created artwork and related it under a non-commercial license. No one else can use if for profit, but if one day I want to, I can, I can also grant someone a comercial license if I choose. But the original work can still be used by anyone for anything non-commercial.
