They do. By default the system partition is straight up mounted read-only.

There was a post the other day about how Reddit never took anything seriously and how the top comments were always predictable jokes that stopped being funny years ago.

It was nice to have places like Daystrom, Ask Science, etc. that were curated for serious discussion.

Troi ends up stuck on the surface of Earth, and Picard ends up breaking his little ships?

That checks out.

As they claim about many things, the Vulcans did it first.

You can buy Ernest a coffee. That will certainly help keep the lights on. But you should probably take a look at the recent posts on his profile.

In addition to the personal issues, he hasn't been able to meet milestones. He gets sponsored by the same group as Lemmy's developers, and if he isn't reaching milestones, he isn't getting paid. And it sounds like his savings is running out.

While money certainly helps, it sounds like it's only the tip of the iceberg. Short of sponsoring a personal assistant and a project manager, I'm not really sure how we can help.

any hardware store

Face masks are most effective at reducing the spread of SARS-CoV-2 when the infected persons wear them. They may reduce incidence of infection when donned by healthy persons, but they are much less effective at doing so versus the former case.

The N95 respirators one would likely find at a hardware store are not the proper masks. The 3M Cool Flow Valve Particulate Respirator 8511, for example, which I picked up recently at a hardware store, only filters the incoming air but not the outgoing air. The contagions flow straight out.

They were absolutely great for better tolerating the highly dusty environment that prompted me to purchase them. But I wouldn't trust them if contagions were the concern at hand.

If they are your only choice? Sure. But if you have a better option? Go for it. Help protect your neighbors.

Ah, yes, Brother. The company that uses all your yellow ink to clean the print heads and to print tracking dots, and then only gives you up to 4 weeks to print without it before locking you out entirely.
