By using this constraint, it ensures that every time the memory state is updated, the changes are controlled and balanced.

The Pegasus project, an investigation into NSO by the Guardian and other media outlets, coordinated by the French media group Forbidden Stories, has documented dozens of examples in which NSO’s spyware was used to attack users of Apple’s iPhone. In some cases, a vulnerability in the company’s iMessage feature, which could be penetrated by Pegasus, was used against journalists, human rights activists and other members of civil society.
The source is describing an iMessage exploit known as FORCEDENTRY, which can be used to deliver a persistent hardware backdoor (Pegasus) to an iPhone. Often, Apple is unable to detect the persistent exploit and therefore incapable of warning the user that they have a backdoored device: https://9to5mac.com/2025/02/20/apple-currently-only-able-to-...
"Im from a totally normal middle class-ish family."
Maybe that's why you can't comprehend the idea of being poor in a fashion that doesn't let you escape, even working as hard as you possibly can and making all the right choices.
I have seen kids from poor families make it. Many have been highly successful in life, even we should not measure it by pay-check.
It usually boils down to alcohol/drugs, idiotic credit card debts and/or living way beyond your actual capability to sustain that lifestyle, and having zero savings, and possibly having children way too young.
Do you use it with an old computer, or do you have a good way to interface a SCSI scanner with a modern machine? I tried to get my Precision II up and running but the SCSI card driver would crash Windows at random intervals.
This is way out of date. I have since been able to get it working on a Windows 11 4th gen Intel machine with 64-bit drivers cobbled together from a couple of versions of FlexColor and some .inf modification. It's not flawless, there's some major corruption that can occur when trying to use certain operations, but overall it works for my needs.
