Re: Buy carefully
Apple are generally better than everyone else.
My mid-2010 macbook didn't get Mojave, but it is still getting security updates for high sierra. My iPad Air 2 will get the iPadOS 13 update.

Windows 98 will run a lot faster on a virtual machine than on bare metal on a modern computer, and anyway, you won’t be able to use more than one core/thread on your CPU, or more than about 384MB of RAM. Graphics performance will be particularly bad because there aren’t the drivers to support modern hardware. For best performance, you want a computer from mid-2000s.
There is no universally accepted emoji, but some of the options include:
Peach, though this more usually represents the rear opening rather than the front one
Cat face, as in pussy
The "OK" hand gesture - in some cultures this gesture has a very different meaning representing the body part you are looking for
There was such a thing, called Google Now, which was completely useless
- "You should jump out the train window, walk to the nearest bus stop, and take various buses to get to some retail park that you sometimes visit, never by bus".
- "You parked your car in the middle of Piccadilly Circus, here are the times of the buses back home"

Sign up for a heterosexual dating site
Buy a pregancy testing kit
Book a nursery school place
Buy food and farming equipment for the herd of cows that apparently resides with her in her 2nd floor apartment
Buy baby clothes
Sign up for all the blockchain investment scams that are going
Buy a funeral plan
How long before this happens?
Benchmark them against the likes of Regus. Rental yield and occupancy rates are the most important numbers. All this value-add stuff is only useful if it leads to higher rental yields in excess of the additional costs involved. Good design and decor sometimes does, up to a point, as people don’t like shabby filthy offices. Catering facilities should at least break even in their own right, but can help rental yields elsewhere in the building if there isn’t much outside. This is mainly relevant for buildings in industrial estates, not so much in city centres. Everything else usually doesn’t pay for itself.
Stock FreeBSD works absolutely fine with 6GB of RAM for 4 x 10TB Iron Woolves.I get about 230MB/s transfer speeds, which is double what my gigabit network can cope with. I think I could probably go down to 4GB without significant performance loss, but I haven't tested it. I have virtual machines that perform other duties running in virtual machines with 384MB of allocated ram and 32GB of storage, and they work absolutely fine.
shutdown -h now

If you want to read about address space isolation in the linux kernel, it is unlikely that the magazine is running the article that month, so you would look it up online, and as long as it isn’t so old that a new version of linux has completely changed it, it will still be useful.
In the past, I suppose you would have gone to the library to look at back issues.
If the auditors are appointed by all of the candidates, then, they will be individually biased, but it won’t be possible to corrupt all of them.
So you would have one democrat, on republican, one libertarian, etc, all attending the sealing of the ballot box, and attending the opening of it and the counting of the votes.
If an American Company asked me for my Social Security Number, I would probably give them something along the lines of AB123456C and see if they accept that. Or maybe, for example, if I was at a car rental desk, I would show them my EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) and let them take the number from that.
Here in the UK, a kettle is way quicker than an electric oven for boiling water. I get boiling water from my kettle in about a minute, and if my recipe calls for boiling water in a pan, eg pasta, vegetables or whatever, I will fill the pan with boiling water from the kettle rather than heat up a pan of cold water.
"This is about the differing performance of disk stores vs memory stores on the same computer, whether lightning fast SLC SSD or a 5400rpm slow laptop HDD. The speed of even the fastest SSD available pales in comparison to memory,"
The performance of disk stores on a computer with lots of spare memory will be just as fast as memory stores, even with spinning rust, due to something called cacheing.
