For firm cheeses, the benefit of a wire or a knife with holes is that you can slice and release. Otherwise it just gets stuck to the knife. For soft cheeses, anything will do for cutting it.
I wasn't referring to cutting bread, but buttering it (which is what the post I was replying to mentioned). A serrated knife is best there because you can angle the knife to control the spread, as it alters the gap between the bread and the scallops in the knife. The teeth of a serrated blade also help spread butter that isn't fully soft.
A samurai knife would have a flat blade and the cheese would stick to it compared to a wire or knife with holes (or at least explicit shallows for release). No samurai knife is sharp enough to cut a hard crusted bread cleanly. It will always crush, rip, and tear. This is why we design cutting tools with small teeth and spin them rapidly. No matter how sharp you get something, you can't get a clean cut through hard / crystalline materials. So we do a lot of fast, controlled tears.
A decent Intel NUC system with SSD can be had for under $500 and will last 5-7 years at least.
An NUC is a laptop in a box. They don't last 5-7 years. They're good for about 3 years.
Use them as part of a modular system with some acting as workstations, others as servers and backup devices.
You're a nut. Who's going to design such a system and maintain all the machines? How many NUCs do you need? Don't forget the monitor, keyboard, mouse, operating system, etc. for each one.
You can even buy them Ethernet-only, no built-in WiFi.
Not when the WiFi is built into the CPU. https://arstechnica.com/inform... That shit has been standard in most Intel CPUs over the last few years. It's exposed/hidden based on SKU, like the ME shit.
Sure, an airgap can be breached with some work. It's also a hell of a lot less likely than an Internet-connected or cloud-connected system being breached. Technically, paper records can also be breached or destroyed -- burglaries of medical offices happen.
Airgaps don't exist when you need to access a central repository of records, when you put regular people in front of the terminal, when you need to update software, when you need to print, etc. At best you have a firewall.
The goal is more security, no security is absolute.
And in today's world, paper records and physical locks provide more security. Just by the weight involved in trying to steal them in bulk, or the time involved in trying to copy them in bulk.
Then again, electronic medical records systems IF PROPERLY IMPLEMENTED can reduce error and make sure records are legible. BTW, the computers don't have to be networked to the outside world. Perfectly feasible to run everything on an airgapped Ethernet network with encrypted daily backup to a set of rotating SSD cartridges. Hardware is cheap in 2018, cloud or client/server isn't the only viable solution.
We already know there are many ways to breach air gaps. Merely getting the required update for whatever database/billing/etc. software you run will involve you breaching the air gap. And of course, modern Intel CPUs come with built in, ON CPU WiFi / cell connections (yes, the antennas are good enough, no, you don't have control over it).
And no, hardware is NOT cheap in 2018. And it won't be cheap in 2118. Cheap is relative. Remember - you're comparing to paper.
You haven't presented any arguments. You've just flung shit. So what if someone is angry? So what if someone is "raving"? So what if someone theorizes they're being attacked/targeted? Many people are in fact attacked/targeted.
Show that she's wrong. What's that? You can't, so you resort to flinging shit and saying she's insane?
Why did you change it from "gun violence" to "mass shootings"? To fit your narrative? Because the vast majority of gun violence is not committed by white men.
Wrong. Gun violence in Chicago is primarily caused by organized crime and the opioid epidemic. Its people from Chicago shooting other people from Chicago over drugs and money. But if you actually have been to Chicago you would know that despite the numbers its still a pretty safe city as long as you don't go to the wrong areas.
If a city has "wrong areas" you need to avoid, your city isn't safe.
Are you daft? Why are you mixing ownership % with murder per 100,000 people?
Compare like for like, you clown.
New Hampshire: Gun ownership 14.4%, gun murders per 100,000: 0.4 Illinois: Gun ownership 26.2%, gun murders per 100,000: 2.8 Texas: Gun ownership 35.7%%, gun murders per 100,000: 3.2 (or as I like to call it, Illinois and New Hampshire combined)
14.4% ownership yields a 0.0004% murder rate in NH, or 0.00002777... % murder rate per % gun ownership.
0.00002777 in NH. 0.00010687 in IL. 0.00008964 in TX
What can we conclude? Gun murder rate is not proportional to gun ownership rates. (If it were, those numbers would all be very similar.)

That's not throwing shade. That's just insulting someone. Throwing shade is much more delicate endeavor.
Radical.
China has no unfair trade practices.
Actually trade is not done between nations, but between companies.
Do you wake up every day and actively look for opportunities to be dumber than you were the day before?
Beyond that, court decisions are not laws.

Nah. A samurai knife would be terrible for cutting cheese or buttering bread.
For cheese you want a wire or at least a knife with holes.
For bread you want a serrated knife.
Let me repeat... hardware is cheap in 2018.
No, it isn't.

Q told us "MZ" (Zuck the Cuck) would be stepping down from his position (willingly or not).
When Q is proven to be correct yet again, what will you blue pillers do?

Nathan's hotdogs are tasteless trash!
Internally, sure. They still expose a complex ISA like AMD64 and ultimately implement it. But the black box you buy is CISC.

Hilarious level of safety precautions.
Daaaaaaaaamn! You showed him! Did he cry? I be he cried. Those Apple "Geniuses", right bro? HaHA!!
And CNN expects me to believe they "hacked the election"?
Sad!
You're such a bad troll.
How come half of America keep asking for things already tried, already shown not to work?
Because that half tends to be young and dumb.
But please, tell us again how this is the fault of an inanimate object.
Angry and cowardly human being picks up inanimate object, ends lives.
Seems to me the angry cowards are the ones trying to violate people's civil rights because they're afraid of inanimate objects.
You're not comparing what Train0987 referred to.
He's trolling you, dumbass.

He can't see that. He is willfully blind.
Narrative! Narrative! Narrative!
Gunshots aren't an infectious or otherwise biological disease, either. Why anyone would expect the CDC to research it in such a manner is beyond me.
