Keeping a site active for 208 years would involve keeping a computer somewhere powered up and responding for all those years. The DNS registration would be a trivial part of the cost.
I think I still have a Safari installer for Windows on my hard drive in the downloads folder. It's from around 2012, before Apple stopped producing a Windows version.
You can buy a Bell 500 style handset that has the four conductor 3.5mm plug to go into a smartphone. They are marketed sort of as a novelty, but they are actually a real improvement for using a smartphone as an actual telephone.
The process of exploring those relationships, conducted by an American official, is also known as the process of 'vetting', which was the original intent of the temporary ban.
There is no certainty the RPi will exist in it's present form five years from now. It is dependent on a mobile CPU that is single sourced from a relatively minor vendor who one of the foundation members happens to work for.
It is a quite praiseworthy project, but it's aims are pedagogical, and trends in education could shift significantly. Five years is a long time, and the R Pi Foundation has a lot of opportunity to grow in that five years.
Midnight Commander might be a good alternative. It's not just GPL, it's an official GNU project. Windows binaries are available if you don't want to build it from source.
I don't think everybody wants to come to the US. However, there are strong forces drawing some of the most talented to come to the US, in effect stealing the best talent from the country that fostered and created them. A talented engineer from Namibia should give back to the people he was raised out of, not to Steve Cook's annual bonus.
We are all captive in the situations that we were raised up out of. There needs to be a limit to the degree that outside forces can draw us out of that to some other place.
Actually, it's the "I am a citizen here" deal. If you don't like that go live in an amorphous fantasy land, perhaps in a MMORPG where you can be a "world citizen." Quit trying to ruin the real world for the rest of us.
I don't believe the job market is zero-sum. I do believe that if these talented individuals would stay in their own country and build businesses there, the world would be more stable. It would promote the economies in their countries of origin and grow the possibilities for everyone else in those countries. People wouldn't illegally immigrate to the US if living was more viable where they lived.
It's a form of imperialism for big American based multinationals to suck all the most talented from around the world out of the countries of their origin.
Fewer and fewer people have been able to afford air travel since the 1950s??
You seem old enough to remember that in the 1960's most households had one television set. I remember my family being pretty well-off and my parents also had a second TV, a 9" black and white portable. In a time when a new car was $1200 and a monthly house payment was $80, a color television cost $650.
Rather, the American Public should sue you, for building your house in a hurricane zone. Or at a minimum, tell you to suck it down and rebuild your wunnerful house-with-a-glorious-view at your own expense after the storm.
Do they still even teach shop class? I have been to municipal school auctions where they were selling off the wood and metal shop machines. It seems like a big liability risk letting some helicopter parent's little dear be in the same room with a table saw or a drill press.
John Menard won't pay him to go away. Menards is privately held, by the Menard family. There is no fucking board of directors or shareholders that John has to answer to. John Menard will shut the little turd down.
The pipe size is the inner dimension. With set standard outer dimensions for different classes and types of pipe. Pipe is specified for the area of what flows inside it.
The court case should simply be replaced with "trial by claw hammers." The dork would get brained by the framer, while he was fretting about the stamped text on the hammer head that said it was some X number of ounces.
No, the 2 x 4 has not been "slowly shrinking". It has been those dimensions ever since framing lumber has been smoothly planned. The dimensions have not changed in many, many years.
It isn't the the same deal as the volume of your Wheaties box, kid.
You could probably order some two inch by four inch planks. It would probably be in hardwood or some special type of wood for furniture or cabinetmaking. Standard framing lumber called a '2 x 4' doesn't even have units assigned to the numbers.
1 x 6 and 1 x 8 planks, on the other hand, are 6 and 8 inches wide respectively, because they are not intended for framing.

Bill Gates himself coded the word processor on the Tandy Model 100. In 8085 assembly language.

I bought a Switch at MSRP a few weeks ago.
It was sheer luck, though. There were four at the store. Went back a few hours later and the three I didn't buy were gone.
How do you spend several hundred on 'some Pi setup'? By putting the ~$50 pi board, flash and wallwart into a rare hardwood enclosure??

That spray mark on the wall of the restroom stall isn't "art", dude.

It's a clone of the classic Norton Commander.
You would know about twelve year old sophistication, you potty mouthed turd.
Please grow up. Embrace adult conversation.

Perhaps they will take it into themselves to torture and kill wealthy people in open pits.

Plane them down??
You just run them through a table saw set to the exact dimension you want. Takes about thirty seconds per board.
Metric is a problem. For anybody who frets about metric. Not so big of a problem for the rest of us who don't really care.
