I only remember doing this with FireWire. Which model supported target disk mode over USB-A?

AFAIK the athlete never got any results either.

I'd say that big concern is AA missiles falling on Ukraine. It opens a can of worms where technically Polish-operated missile might kill citizens of Ukraine. Nothing is 100% failsafe. They probably need to flash out all possible eventualities and it's not risk-free politically, so it requires someone motivated enough to push the thing through.

The risk is there no mater what Poland does. Russian missiles already fell on Polish land. If russia could do more they'd already do that.

Poland can just declare that they are protecting from stray missiles before they enter their airspace. What are russians going to do? Fire missiles at NATO country? At the very least, they'd just get massive wall of AA along the Polish border shooting down missiles even deeper in Ukraine.

Remember that russia already claimed that there is NATO crew manning the AA systems in Ukraine. Following their propaganda, this would actually be deescalation.

Most of the time when russia successfully (according to russian media) intercepts missile or drone, the falling debris hits the intended target. Perhaps it was surprising that working AA actually leads to different outcomes.

There were cluster bombs raining on the beach after russian AA shot down one of the rockets. But IIRC that beach was close to the military base, so it was pretty stupid to even go there.

Some people really want that Darwin award.

Plus there's russian propaganda with 100% successful AA and everything being under control with their 3 day special military operation.

What kills Civilization for me is the phase in which I just wait for production or other stat to fill up and there's nothing interesting to do for couple turns.

Civilization Revolution is kind of black sheep of the Civ family, because it's "dumbed down" and "not a true civilization game", but IMO it has much better pacing.

If one day old tankie account says that, it must be true.

Probably not what you're asking for, but I have an impression, that your primary motivation is curiosity and just good feeling of using the open platform, so I figured I'll mention it.

I'm using ESP32-C3 boards with some sensors and ESPHome to monitor air quality in my house. The board is RISC-V based and can be bought for real cheap. (single digit $ price generally) ESPHome is quite easy to work with and (If you're realistic with your expectations around very low power device) also quite powerful.

Honestly the ESPHome itself is almost too good if you're really curious as it abstracts the differences between various boards quite well. You're just editing a yaml file to define your desired functionality.

Even if you're hesitant to do some soldering, you can get pretty far if you buy board and sensors with pre-soldered pins and some jumper wires.

It's similar for Slovakia for some names:

Erik Kalinak started as social media manager for SMER (the pro-russian party that got to power recently) and is now climbing the career ladder in SMER at amazing speed quite obviously being pushed as future prominent member of the party. His uncle is Robert Kalinak - one of the founding members of SMER.

Uhrik was elected a member of the European Parliament for the far-right neo-Nazi LSNS party. Later he founded his own party, the far-right and neo-fascist Republic. This was after the head of LSNS was sentenced to four years for propagating nazism - the Republic essentially is a continuation of LSNS. Uhrik is also very anti-Ukraine from the very beginning of russian invasion. You might remember him from 1st March 2022 when he completely ignored Zelensky's speech in European Parlament browsing his phone.

The other two names are more surprising, but mostly because they are kind of irrelevant. If russia spent any money on these two, they could as well flush it down the toilet.

Miroslav Radacovsky is pretty much nobody. I still don't quite understand how he got elected to European Parlament. The MEP elections are very much ignored in Slovakia. People aren't interested in participating, so the results are kind of random sadly. Anyways you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Slovakia that would be able to tell you who Radacovsky is or to tell you single member of the Slovak PATRIOT party - AFAIK they didn't even attempt to run for a seat in 2023 elections. As you can guess they are a bit far-right, but it's hard to tell for sure.

Jan Carnogursky is no longer active in politics for over a decade AFAIK. FWIW he expressed some support for Putin recently, which is somewhat ironic, considering he was anti-communist in Czechoslovakia and was also imprisoned by the regime. but again, these days he's not relevant at all.

We are all unfairly and relentlessly smeared as Putinists by increasingly unpopular globalist ‘elites’; their discredited lackeys in the lying, mainstream press; and Soros-funded NGOs.

It's uncanny how all of these putinists use the exact same language and arguments. It's always Soros and NGOs and lying mainstream press.

It's easier to manage/secure since it's essentially just shell scripts

I love the fact that I can't tell whether this is irony or not.
