Until I see evidence to the contrary, I will assume she doesn’t know how to write her name, so I will guess the latter.

You misspelled “raping”

The article has no new info. Seems like just trying to milk clicks out of the situation.

We already know Trump has flown on Epstein’s plane and was buddy buddy with him, but supposedly never visited Epstein’s infamous island (but I wouldn’t be surprised if he participated in trafficking and sexual abuse of minors). As the article says, being on the flight list doesn’t imply innocence or guilt. And since the judge has given those on the list an opportunity to request they be redacted I’m not sure if we learn much from it.

Indeed. I skimmed the article. It is a summary of information that’s been out there for ages. Nothing new.

We really don’t have to, at this point. We really haven’t had to since at least Charlottesville.

That seems stupid but at least they followed a legal process (unlike the mofos on Jan 6)

So I guess MI will revisit the topic in the general election if (when) Trump wins the primary. Don’t forget to stock up on 🍿

Idk I bet he’s got contacts all throughout the NSA. He’s got a hell of a blackmailing racket going.

Along with God being capitalized wherever it appears in a sentence. E.g., it would also have been clear if it has said, “…U.N. We are on God’s side.”

I guess a lot of people lost sight of the ball.

Antisemitism — or any bigotry — is bad. We dare not tolerate it because it can lead to persecution and genocide.

Somewhere along the way people took that to mean that any criticism of the actions of the Israeli government, including accusations of genocide, was anti-semitism and had to be quashed.

And yes, Hamas leadership is also awful, bigoted, and wanting to genocide, just like the Israeli government.

But the everyday Gaza inhabitant doesn’t deserve to be killed. Nor does the everyday rest-of-Israel inhabitant deserve to be killed.

It is true he hasn’t been convicted.

The problem I see with that argument is that The law prohibiting insurrection, USC 18 § 2383 was passed in 1948. While Amendment 14 was Ratified in 1866.

So at that time, conviction for insurrection was not a requirement.

One may argue that due process wasn’t provided in Colorado, taking Trump off the ballot. Except it was. The initial trial was concerned with two main questions. First, did Trump partake in insurrection? Second, does the 14th apply?

The judge heard evidence provided by both sides in the case for each question and then, in the ruling, provided a detailed explanation for their reasoning that Trump did partake in insurrection but that the 14th did not apply.

I presume the Colorado Supreme Court offered similarly detailed justification for their ruling which upheld that Trump did insurrection but that the 14th does apply.

The 14th isn’t criminal law. It is concerned with the running of the government. Just like impeachment and subsequent conviction of a president doesn’t require the president to be charged with “high crimes and misdemeanors”, neither foes the 14th require conviction of a USC 18 (or any other) crime. The determination isn’t left to criminal trial it is up to legal proceedings separate from that.

We put the wrong fucking people in office.

Surely I am not the only person who just wants to make shit better for everyone and couldn’t give less of a fuck about drugs or bribe money or power or fucking randos?

If money couldn’t buy elections (via massive marketing campaigns) maybe we could get decent people into office. There has to be some way to put up barriers to the people who really want the power. They’re the last people who should get it.

Maybe we need to just appoint people like in the jury system.

What if you get nailed for possession then they find a bunch of other shit to charge you with. I assume that happens anyway. If weed was the basis of probable cause, throw out the conviction for the other stuff.

People need to learn “tough on crime” and “law and order” are dog whistles for “oppress minorities”

Even if they don’t admit they were wrong, they can demonstrate it. Legalize mj, at a minimum (maybe let’s do psychedelics next so those of us with mental health disorders can get some promising treatment some day soon). Pardon all people convicted of possession of said drugs. Set up a national program for addiction treatment. Hell while I am at it let’s socialize mental healthcare. And establish UBI. I could go on…

Maybe a nice seaside excursion in Mariupol. Stick a toe in the Sea of Azov…

Agreed. However, providing a platform for hate speech is no different than condoning it.

I believe that’s 80 stone

It would certainly be interesting to see if an OS written in Rust can end up being notably more reliable and secure. My curiosity is piqued by the features you mention.

Idk what the iso fuck up and I don’t code enough to appreciate whatever technical debt exists in either so I am probably sound like an idiot but…

Since I do infosec, the glaring issue for me is not being memory safe.

Well that is rather insidious. Crap. They probably understand the reasons for the GPL very well. Doesn’t mean they support them.
