Apparently, Miami was the best place to get drunk and Rio de Janeiro had the prettiest hookers.

I love how all of Trumps supposed enemies of which there are many like Mexico and Venezuela are selflessly offering money and aid to Texas. Says a gently caress ton honestly. Like he's absolutely poo poo on these countries for years but they don't equate him with the innocent people in Texas whatsoever which I doubt would be the same if the situation were reversed.

For Grandpa chat one was a radar station operator in the Pacific, the other was a paratrooper who made dozens of jumps, most into the Phillipines. He took home a rifle, pistol and katana from a Japanese officer who surrendered to him; we still have those - we're thinking of selling the rifle and pistol, but my dad's thought about trying to return the katana to the officer's family, if there are still any. If you want a bigger one, my great-great-great-(maybe add on another great)-grandpa got the medal of honor for leading a successful assault against a Confederate troop train during the Civil War.

evilweasel posted:your iphone and computer already have very significant backdoors - automatic updates signed by the company Thus far Apple and Microsoft have been shown to be reliable allies in not caving to government pressure while in the case of microsoft being decent global citizens in tak ing down the less desirable parts of the internet. I don't explicitly trust any corporation but I think it's a bit hyperbolic to say backdoors are just one compromised patch away. It may be true but when it's discovered, and it will be, the damage done to the responsible party is enormous unless we're already in a defacto police state anyway.

I'm not at all active in this thread and nobody cares but as long as we're doing grandpa chat one of mine taught hand to hand combat at an Army Infantry training camp. He had a knee injury that kept him from being deployed to Europe even though he really, really, really, really wanted to punch Nazi's.

My paternal grandfather fought in the European Front, I'm not sure of the specifics. One of his brothers fought in the Battle of the Bulge, another one lost his thumb in Germany (I remember asking him about it). My great Aunt was one of the codebreakers, and apparently she did an interview about it not too long ago. She was a bit surprised to learn all that stuff is declassified now.

SpaceCadetBob posted:Is there any case law on this before the advent of digital encryption like with ciphers and such that could be used as precedent? I seem to recall from high school (late 90's), when PGP came out, the US Gov't tried to prevent its export (as a 'weapons system'), until the creators published the source code as text on paper - and the courts agreed that it's protected speech. Could be wrong though, IANAL

All the grandpa chat makes me sad, mine died in a camp so I never met him. I really wish occupational safety was taken more seriously then, the tower really should've had solid handrails. Was that the most obvious joke? Yeah, gently caress you. Anyway, my other grandpa was too young to serve but later was a sapper the the soviet army and spent the early 50s in bum-gently caress central Asia. He has some stories but mostly routine poo poo daily living conditions.

One of my grandpas drove a desk in Washington for the motor pool. The other one had a construction firm and built aircraft hangers in Louisville, KY. My girlfriend's grandfathers, on the other hand, were (a) a Seabee on Iwo Jima, and (b) a Polish Jew who escaped with the help of some Romanian partisans.
