So I’m trying to dig my Windows product key out of my recovered files. I run this pattern on all of them with ‘egrep -r ‘^([A-Za-z0-9]{5}-){4}[A-Za-z0-9]{5}$’ *’
But when I go into vi to search for the string itself with the same regex, I get “No pattern matches.” Is the syntax for regex different in vi than in bash?
[Wednesday update]
I still haven’t found it, but amazingly, I seem to have installed a working version of Windows 10 without it.
I didn’t, either. The first year I was eligible for the draft, I had a high number. The draft ended the year after that. If I had been notified of being drafted, I probably would have enlisted in the Air Force (I had been in Civil Air Patrol), though my eyesight would have precluded me from being a pilot. But I agree with his point about how most of the “elites,” including every Democrat president since Carter, were people who avoided service.
It was a terrible decision, constitutionally so,as he notes, the question now is: Is it Dred Scott terrible, sufficiently so to overcome stare decisis?
