While it’s a laudable effort and appropriate for people to do what they can, congress.gov says:
7 Sept 2025To date, the United States has provided Israel $174 billion (current, or non-inflation-adjusted, dollars) in bilateral assistance and missile defense funding.
A few hundred million fewer bonds held here and there isn’t going to make much of a dent in their financing.
Sure, but there are many ways to do it, depending on all sorts of details/variables, like what terminal or terminal emulator you are using, what shell, etc.
Consistent BackSpace and Delete Configuration has lots of information that might help you understand the relevant details of your system and options for setting it as you wish for root.
What is it when you’re root?
What is it when you’re not root?

I have a FriendlyELEC NanoPi R4S with metal case, running Armbian with a couple of USB SSD drives, for file and website hosting mostly. Just my personal use: no heavy loads. It’s air cooled (no fan). It typically reports a temperature of about 35 centigrade. Up into the 40s if I increase the load (development, upgrades, indexing, etc.) I don’t know the actual power consumption, but the power adapter is only 15w. My original NanoPi R1 works fine for the same purpose and uses even less power - runs cooler. I got the R4S and an R2S Plus, so as to have spares and development/tinkering systems and to have a 64bit CPU, in case I wanted to run anything that requires it.
It’s not upgradeable but it’s fairly cheap and has worked well enough that I haven’t wanted to upgrade it for years, other than migrating from the R1 to the R4S, as mentioned. If by dev workload you mean running local LLMs or heavily loaded CI build system it probably wouldn’t be a good fit, but fine for compiling a package occasionally, local git and npm servers and similar. I don’t recall when I got the R1: some time before Covid. The R4S and R2S Plus have been running for about 5 years now.
There are many other SBCs supported by Armbian. You might find something better matched to your requirements.
keep making the same fundamental error: treating his employees as if they’re not human beings deserving of respect and care.
It’s not just Meta. It’s capitalism driven by financialization with sociopaths at the helm. It’s not an error. It is essential. Whatever changes they might make to increase their profits, they will not include actually caring about employees as human beings. AI might produce memos that better conceal the callous exploitation and fraudulently proclaim caring, but it doesn’t care either.
Meanwhile, AI companies get a free pass to steal every work online.
If it’s not consistent, it’s not justice.
Why only news sites?
Any bot that ignores robots.txt should be banned.
It’s not a problem. Those people won’t have a job by 2030. They won’t have money to buy water. Might as well let AI use it.
Is the plan that “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” or are they just going to bomb them “back to the Stone Ages where they belong”?
Maybe they should do more than just fire a person who was caught using AI. Maybe they should establish a process of independent fact checking before publication, regardless of whether AI was known or intended to be used to produce the article. It is a problem that AI was used in a way that introduced factual errors. It’s fair that the person responsible for this was fired. But all processes need quality control. Why hasn’t the person who failed to wrap quality control processes around the author fired?
AI - damned if you do and damned if you don’t. And it’s not just journalism affected.
As I said, it is laudable and appropriate that people start somewhere. Bringing attention to the problem, even indirectly, is a good thing. But it is also necessary to be more vocal about who the major offenders are. Donald Trump, by way of his so-called Board of Peace has even declared that he has the right to expropriate Gaza, expel its occupants without compensation and build resorts. Israel wouldn’t be doing what it is, if it didn’t have supporters.
