• HDCP had flaws and keys up to version 2.1 were extracted/reversed. In addition to that there is hdfury device that legally and following HDCP licencing terms downgraded 2.2 to lower 2.x versions to provide compatibility. They got smarter and blocked downgrading in later versions. Blocking HDCP older than that would also break compatibility with devices that don’t support versions of the standard newer than late 2012. Add a capture card and you are set.
• Widevine L1 keys were extracted from a Qualcomm CPU in 2021. They are also stored in Intel CPUs in SGX which had so many flaws over the years I’d be surprised nobody grabbed keys at some point
• Both audio and video has to be decrypted and analog at some point - you can capture it if you have the hardware and willingness to e.g. grab it at a LCD display ribbon. Not as good/convenient as decrypting it, but it is an option.

Peak power can only be maintained for a minute (if you are lucky) before it overheats. Peak power is the main advertised spec, so it has to be high and default mode so you don’t feel cheated when you turn it on for the first time. The other modes you toggle through are settings that can be sustained for extended periods of time.

Heh, I assumed you were talking about young children and your response suggests adults. In that case I’d say it’s even easier - they already live their own lives and you have more flexibility to live yours the way you like and where you like. Travel is always a pain, but the bigger deal the trip is the more meaningful the visit.

Take them with you, especially if the move is a quality of life upgrade.

I’m not going to touch immigration, work permits etc, because it varies greatly - I’m assuming you figure it out. For skilled workers with work experience there usually is a fairly painless way to get all you need.

Continuing to work:

• your employer has to have presence in the country you are moving to, or
• they have to handle your employment through an intermediary, like deel.com, or
• you have to transition to independent contractor (potentially legally dicey if you are a contractor in name only)
• if your company doesn’t support fully async work don’t move more than 8 time zones away - that way you’ll still be able to join some meetings

Moving is the simplest part:

• Lightweight & cheap option: pack a backpack/suitcase like you were going on long vacation. Buy plane tickets. Rent Airbnb at the location for a week and use that week to rent a place to live. This option is similar in cost to moving to a different city within a country with extra costs being $2000-3000 for travel and initial week at destination.
• Everything and kitchen sink is not much more expensive: 10k gets everything you own professionally packed, stuffed in a 20 feet shipping container, shipped across the ocean, moved through customs, delivered to your new address and unloaded (but not unpacked from boxes). 20 feet container is enough to take everything in a large, packed 2 bedroom condo including furniture.

At destination you will need:

• work permit / work visa
• local equivalent of social security / tax number / sometimes both - file a form, sometimes pay a small fee
• a business (if you are going independent contractor route)
• bank account

Vast majority of the info you need will often be available on the embassy website of your destination country.

Working remotely from another continent crowd checking in.

Even at double the price you still end up paying under $0.10 per shave - maybe $25/year - and that’s if you pay full price. A small fraction of what you’d pay for cartridges or disposable razors.

This. I bought 500 feather blades for $40 (which is more of a steal than a deal) in 2013 and they will last me many more years

Even if they had all parts they would be looking at months of cleanup

Something more like this https://a.co/d/0bgPCSvQ - it should use half the power, it’s way smaller, 2x SATA if you want 2 drives. I haven’t checked if this specific one is 12V, but there are dozens in the same form factor and with similar specs.

There are a lot of atom or mobile i3/i5 powered mini PCs that actually are powered with a 12v brick, in fact most of the industrial ones are. Small form factor, passive cooling, can play media for you and usually comes with 4x 1/2.5gbit Ethernet, so it can double as a router/switch. Usually 10-15w power draw.

Go to AliExpress and simply search for minipc and make sure it has a SATA connector for your hard drive.

For me that’s achieved by being 6 timezones ahead - I finish work, turn off my computer and go to sleep.

It is an issue in Poland. Close to 30% of the population is at Sunday mass and even if priests were perfectly neutral (and they very much aren’t) simply people deciding “I’m already out, I might as well vote” does make an impact on the outcome. Every time liberals and socialists score an election win is after electorate mobilization that counters that.

BTW I agree that voting should happen on a statutory holiday, but it shouldn’t be one associated with a majority religion.

It skews the results towards christian-backed candidates - Sunday mass gets people out of their houses, clergy reminds them to vote and at least hints who they should vote for and they do on their way home.

I hate mosquitos enough to be willing to roll the dice on this one

• populism
• social media
• using religion for control and power
• mosquitoes
• unchecked corporate greed

Still worth it.

I can’t reach any of the above in 15 minutes. In fact I can’t reach anything in 15 minutes as it takes me 5 to just reach the gate - very rural middle of nowhere, population 50, with a single road and some street lamps as the infrastructure.

Insurance rates vary greatly with zip code in Canada. I moved just before I was going to buy a car and when I got quoted over $700 CAD per month to insure a Fiat 500 (new driver over 30) I quickly calculated that taking Uber to and from work daily is going to be much cheaper than insurance alone…

I’ve put an ocean between myself and the US.
