Forgot the one everyone wishes they could forget - FTPS !
Might be worth noting that SCP is non- interactive file transfer only, whereas FTP/SFTP can do interactive sessions and management functions as well.

Go to Moscow, hang a left. When you hit the North Pole, head south...not, not that south, the other one! The other other one. After a bit, take another left for a couple hours, and you'll arrive at your destination on the right.
Lol, really? One can't control the fact that bad things happen. The west isn't forcing either China or Russia to claim territory that doesn't belong to them.
However, one can control how one reacts to said events. Help out where we can, and strengthen ourselves for the future.
There's that whole proverb about crisis=danger+opportunity. The danger is there regardless...if you fail to seize the opportunity presented, well, you are pretty much guaranteed to come out the other side worse off.
Very few people WANT a war in Ukraine. But as China keeps adding dashes to their map, it's pretty clear there's a reasonable chance to be an even bigger war around the corner, whether we want it or not.
The Ukraine war woke the west up from its slumber, and it has allowed us to put the old stuff stuff cluttering our closets to good use, as well as test some new weapons concepts, and to get ourselves ready for the bigger conflict on the horizon.
If we are really lucky, China is looking at Ukraine and having second thoughts about kicking the hornets nest at all, saving a lot of lives on both sides.
If we are not that lucky, then Ukraine has allowed us to be much better prepared for the coming conflict.
So am I glad Ukraine happened? Not a bit. Can I see the silver lining thru the clouds? For sure.
I think it's been made pretty clear between Andor and Ashoka that the Old Republic, the Empire, and the New Republic are all essentially the same bureaucracy at their cores, just with different leadership and priorities at the top.
It's really showing the banality of evil...people continue to do their jobs and following orders of whoever the current bosses are. By and large, they can't directly see whether their own actions are used for good or evil, the paperwork must continue to flow regardless.
That's why there isn't a ton of chaos when one galactic government supplants the next. Setting up an all-new galaxy-spanning bureaucracy is extremely hard, why not just do some loyalty oaths and let the existing machinery keep on chugging along.
Pretty much. China is pretty good at buying friends....when they aren't busy stealing their stuff..
I don't get why China allows their fishing fleets to keep shitting on their international reputation. It's so counterproductive.
Perhaps add in the viewpoint of the "rancher" carnivore.
Ranching tech has bred pretty mindless prey animals that can be raised and slaughtered for food as needed, no hunting necessary. These prey aren't sentient anymore, so is killing them for food wrong?
Credit/debit systems appear to have existed for at least 5000 years. Money is just an abstraction technology to make the credit/debit economy work more smoothly and scale up.
As money is a foundational tech for civilization, you'd need to find a replacement tech that serves much the same purpose, but avoids whatever downsides you feel outweigh it's benefits. That's a hard problem.
Then implement it in such a way that civilization doesn't implode during the transition. This is a very hard problem.
And then prevent humanity from finding a way to exploit that tech for the benefit of the few, bringing you right back where you started. This is a nearly impossible problem.
Well, that's not at all what I said. Japanese compact cars were generally pretty cool and affordable in a way most similar small American cars were not, so of course they get customized a ton more that their American equivilents.
The people who actually made their cars perform were the racers, those who did the truly terrible mods were the ricers.
Yes, racist due to stereotyping. But it was more wordplay for insulting the taste of the person in question in comparison to the racers, not their ethnicity or the origin of their car. Bad taste is pretty universal. And as with pretty much anything in language, people can and clearly have used it as a racial insult. I just don't think that was it's origin.
I am really amused it has morphed into a more positive connotation with the *nix crowd, while still meaning essentially the same thing. Language truly is a living thing.
I mean it has clearly racist origins, but I've never actually heard it used in a racist manner in real life.
At least where I was, there were basically zero Asians, "ricers" were (typically but not exclusively) Japanese cars that were customized terribly, as someone else mentioned, all show and no go. You could have American ricers too.
The owners, the "rice boys", were pretty much all white guys.
I get that Ukraine won't consider the possibility of ceding any territory, nor should they. They probably don't like their allies even mentioning it.
But, there's the separate issue of not being able to join NATO with ongoing territorial disputes. Without much context to go on, I would almost interpret this as something more along the lines of "Ukraine could join NATO tomorrow if the dispute went away (by whatever method)".
Oh man, I haven't seen uuencode in so long, I basically forgot it existed until I read your comment!
