Hence “won’t happen at Starbucks, might if Mossad is after you”. Thanks for adding the details. I feel like most people think vpns are magic but also radically overestimate their personal risk.

Unless they intercept the handshake as a proxy and have access to everything after that. The average Starbucks employee is not doing this.

An Israeli spy tracking down an arms dealer might figure out how to do this at a hotel the target was using, but the arms dealer would know that.

Edit: I think some vps would notice this happening, fwiw.

These are either wartime consiglieries or people better at preserving an economic status quo that greatly benefits China and is getting better for them every year.

Only an idiot would disrupt that.

Edit: a prideful idiot - checks notes - like authoritarian leaders can often be.

You cannot make a difference this way. Their music is a commodity they have signed agreements to sell. They probably (in the vast majority of instances) had almost no bargaining power in this and a lot of signed artists don’t make a penny from their work, at all.

If you really like an artist, contact them via their official channels and ask if you can send them money directly or donate to a charity they like.

My brother, a Canadian who is socially liberal, economically conservative, and virtually apolitical thinks the fake elector thing is bs.

He doesn’t care if it did or didn’t happen.

I am not saying this to contradict you. I am supportive of your point. This is unlikely to even remote reach most people in a meaningful way, let alone die hard Trump fans that somehow think he’s a virile, brave, genius business person with big hands and an animal musk that Larry from Three’s Company would envy.

Agreed

If these people don’t keep doubling down, the maga base turns on them and they are completely screwed. They rely on the money from grifting those idiots and are no longer even remotely accepted by the adults in the room.

Sure, God could just make more money appear but think of the effect on the economy. His son completely disrupted the loaves and fishes business that time and look what they did to him.

It’s just a matter of time before a lady starts feeding bears from her back porch and the towns are overrun. You could make a bundle trading bear spray for other items that you eventually barter for things that other people have that you want assuming your barter goods have value to them.

Sounds like a real utopia.

You have to select starchy potatoes, not waxy, and let them steam dry (e.g. drain water in metal colander and toss in a warm oven or on the stove for a bit). Mix in the seasoning and milk/butter after they are mostly mashed for better control of consistency.

Edit: was agreeing. Glueyness is not because they are cut up.

The back up had the same data that caused the app to crash before.

Did you try just logging in to the fresh install?

I think failing to disclose assets would be a further transgression but not an expert.

I have no idea how anything works but I’m a 50 year old man so I’ve got an opinion.

He has lots of assets and a judgement against him in their favor makes them high priority creditors (I think).

My guess is they will liquidate his assets, pay lawyers, pay banks, then pay these women and anyone else he’s in debt to.

There will probably be a proceeding where his creditors lawyers line to explain why they should be paid first so maybe it won’t go that way.

But rest assured: the lawyers and banks will be paid and he’s deeply in debt.

He probably sees this as way to both restructure his debt and avoid paying them. How successful he is at that will be revealed in time.

You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.

R’s are beholden to the dumbest, meanest people in the US. The MIC knows thus and knows they will get their money one way or another.

If Ukraine falls, Putin won’t stop there, for example.

Getting their paid for politicians reelected is more important.

They, in fact, do talk up Russia as though it is some free speech, all the guns you want, libertarian paradise. It’s incredible to see.

They can finally do that Dark Angel sequel series.

Sorry, working and not going to dig in that deep :) but seems like he is into restoration of classic cars from the muscle car era back to the 1930s. I am not into cars at all.

What if they realized their natural will to work beside their brothers and sisters instead of against them had been subjugated and exploited by the ruling elite? Surely, they would join our glorious… labor movement.

A world in which the workers own the means of production.
