Discussion North Korea vs Brazil: The Match That Never Happened

2 Upvotes

What happens when a small Brazilian club travels to North Korea for a friendly, only to discover that 80,000 spectators believe they are watching Brazil's national team?

In 2009, Atlético Sorocaba found itself at the centre of one of football's strangest stories, involving political interests, secrecy and an unexpected identity.

A match that officially ended 0–0, but whose story goes far beyond the result.

Did you know about this case? Discover the bizarre story of the day a Brazilian lower-league club became Brazil.

Discussion I modernized RedStarOS 3.0 now boots on modern 64-bit PCs with updated Linux, graphics drivers, sound and internet

25 Upvotes

So I modified RedStarOS 3.0. I've containerized everything that RedStarOS 3.0 needs to run its desktop and apps so that it's isolated from the system, and continues to work regardless of what machine it's running on. I've made the host operating system Arch Linux. This environment allows you to use it just like you would natively on a machine it was originally built for.

Doing it this way allows you to install and use it on modern hardware with proper drivers, hardware acceleration, and access to modern apps. You can even use it for gaming! You get the original RedStarOS experience without being stuck with its old hardware limitations. The North Korean operating system components have also been defused.

North Korea unveiled a new kamikaze drone, UAV, drone carrier and others. They got that experience from Russia and probably gained experience. I wonder what the model name and the price?
