and produce tons of excellent, reviewed but useless code on the way.
Unironically Lynx and Elinks.
You could do some automated/scripted installation VM-image builder thingy and release that. Would probably also save some manual work for you. (bash script fetching install image & run qemu, autounattend.xml, etc. all nicely released on github.) And it’d be auditable.
that’d be an awesome way to spread malware with some VM evasion.
not sure if any 3rd-party windows install should ever be trusted. no matter what usecase.
A translation would be nice.

I’d like to see the bedbug that survives this. As mentioned elsewhere, this is used by (hopefully) every hospital, elderly home or hotel for worse stuff than bedbugs.
The mattresses leave this thing in a pristine state.
When you refund a mattress they just surface clean it
yuck. I doubt that. It’s manual work and far more expensive than a machine.
but getting them dry would be a challenge
seriously? I mean, there is a chance no such service exists in your town. Bad luck then. But there is close to zero chance it doesn’t exist in your country.
What do you think hospitals do? (Or good hotels, as mentioned). Source: Worked in an elderly home that used such a service regularly.
Here’s an image of such a mattress washing machine.
They work.
That’s not true. All mattresses except the cheapest foam ones are washable (they are, too but they might change properties then). But why get a used cheap one?
There are mattress washing services with giant washing machines that are used by hotels. Ask hotel staff to find one.
You can’t get rid of most of the build-up.
You actually can get rid of all the buildups. Just like with clothes. Also don’t think sellers throw it away when you refund a mattress - they wash it and sell it again.
just ask beforehand if you can test it quickly. while that’s not 100% proof, most people are honest (at least when giving away stuff for cheap/free). There’s a risk, but at worst you get free trash. Never happened to me, tho.
Also most high-quality stuff is always salvageable. Surely it’s more hassle then if you have to order spare parts or such.
lock 'im up already…
Some things basically come for free when they were used. Washing machine, stoves… Disassembling them to fully clean them takes a day or two, but it’s still faster than buying new and chances are good, someone wants to get rid of their high quality stuff near you and will give it away for cheap if you “dispose” it for them.
You can even wash a mattress for a few bucks. If it’s good quality, a decade old used filthy mattress can come out like brand new.
People finding that gross or poorish are the reason, stuff is so cheap
They did it before and they’ll do it again.
imagine microsoft promoting guides to use the terminal which was deemed outdated, slow and complicated legacy in the past.
Give it two or three more major teleases, then windows will be a DE runnining on some *nix-ish kernel. Microsoft is really learning the hard way.
on Android, the OS is the firmware. If you talk about peripheral firmware, I’d not call it “software based” anymore.
Also consider that you’re arguing from high grounds.
While we will read/hear/agree majorly about the true origin of COVID eventually, in places like Russia there’s no open discourse ever or discussing sensitive topics is dangerous and almost only happens between closely related people behind closed doors. There is almost no development of public opinion beyond closed online discussions outside of echo chambers.
If the USSR would still exist, russians & east germans would still believe that AIDS/HIV was manufactured by the USA although even the worst critcis of the US have agreed on proof, that it must have developed outside of labs.
also free speech and independent media civilizations tend to provide more attack surface. so countering it is inefficient and only resilience really helps.
luckily it’s not very subtle and rarely hard to spot.
installing your own OS and/or bootloader is a pain and most of the time unfeasable. And that’s the only way to safely kill software based backdoors.
so russians actually do have war heroes this time. and it’s a girl.
Not sure if I’d trust an OS named like a Bond villain.
