You think JD Vance is the kind of guy who would do something that brings pleasure to neither him, nor the couch?
Harris winning Texas is a very unlikely event, as much as I’d like to see it. I’d be happy if exit polling is ~Trump +1, and they can’t call the state before midnight. A narrow Trump victory would still change the national conversation around Texas significantly
Experience which we all know is the backbone of a good presidency, just look at James Buchanan
You mean Donald Trump, who once said on tape that he was famous enough to get away with grabbing women by their genitalia? Seems like a pretty bad guy to trust, unless the thing you’re trusting him to do is sexual assault
Well an Olympic athlete is probably a public figure in this context, so she’d need to show that Boebert defamed her “with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not.”
Pretty good, I’d wager.
Which could potentially create a situation if Trump were to win, where his electoral votes are split across JD Vance, and thanks to the 12th amendment, the Senate picks the VP, and selects Harris’s running mate. If Jon Tester keeps his seat in Montana, which doesn’t seem super unlikely, this probably means a 50-50 Senate, with the VP keeping it in the Dems’ control.
I’ve learned a number of tools I’d never used before, and refreshed my skills from when I used to be a sysadmin back in college. I can also do things other people don’t loudly recommend, but fit my style (Proxmox + Puppet for VMs), which is nice. If you have the right skills, it’s arbitrarily flexible.
What electricity costs in my area. $0.32/KWh at the wrong time of day. Pricier hardware could have saved me money in the long run. Bigger drives could also mean fewer, and thus less power consumption.
Google, selfhosting communities like this one, and tutorial-oriented YouTubers like NetworkChuck. Get ideas from people, learn enough to make it happen, then tweak it so you understand it. Repeat, and you’ll eventually know a lot.
I don’t see anywhere that anybody said that. Most of them seem to want more legal immigration, because if you make legal immigration easier, fewer people will do it though other channels.
The harmful conduct we should actually be focusing on here is companies exploiting/abusing undocumented workers and violating labor laws whose immigration status chills them from reporting. Those companies are the real criminals here. The employees responsible, or who should’ve known, should see the inside of a jail cell, and fines should be an existential threat to the business if they do this with any regularity.
If it’s easier to immigrate legally, and employers believe hiring undocumented workers will cost them way more than they stand to save, we’ll see a very different dynamic.
Oh. My. That is somehow even worse than I thought.
Yeah I didn’t know about the “purchasing the right to call himself a founder” thing until fairly recently. I probably would have started in a similar place if I had
My respect for him tanked in 2014 when I first met someone who worked for him, and heard what working for him is like. Abusive managerial style sounds… too gentle. Somewhere during the Trump administration I lost my last ounce of respect for him, and somewhere in the last few years I started losing respect for people who still think positively of him.
Between his sense of humor that reads as ‘15 year old on 4chan’, his aggressive bigotry, and abject lack of redeeming qualities, I’m not sure what he could do to change my mind at this point. If he gave a billion to the Trevor project and apologized for the bigotry, I’d be skeptical about his angle.
The best part is if the question goes up to SCOTUS, it might well get consolidated with Cannon’s dismissal, and they’re considering one legal question in cases against a Trump and a Biden.
I don’t think anyone intends public funds to be quite that sticky; public education is itself a public good, and having once attended a public school really has nothing to do with developing a product 20 years down the road.
Also, writing open source code can support a viable business. Not every example has been successful, and some have been sold to hypercapitalist owners who wanted to extract more profit, others have failed to keep up, but Canonical is doing alright with it, Red Hat did for a long time, among others. Plenty of bigger tech companies also employ people to write open source software, despite it not being the company’s main business, React, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and so many other projects. Those engineers definitely aren’t working for free.
The very few artists who do, and have the creative freedom to so do are probably the only ones who could get away with this. Convention Centers don’t seem to have the same density of existing Ticketmaster relationships, and while they’d have to pay to bring in seating at some, I bet they could do it for something similar to Ticketmaster’s middleman fees.
I’m not sure the difference between costs for concert venues and convention centers, but if it’s anywhere near comparable, it could be feasible.
It’s very easy to make digital copies of physical media. The resulting copy is likely to be as high quality as you can find, and as portable as any digital copy can be. Pop it in a folder and point Jellyfin at it, and it’s available anywhere.
It’s also the easiest legal way to get a good digital copy.
Why are the women doing it? Power imbalance is probably a big factor.
Intent isn’t the same as what will happen, the law does prescribe what he must do, and if that violates his intent, so be it.
But it does mean he’ll presumably be on the lenient side of what he’s allowed to do, which means it’s very unlikely Trump’s going to jail as a result of this conviction. Unless he ends up with a negative recommendation from the probation officer, which seems unlikely from what has been said publicly. But I wouldn’t say “absolutely not” yet.
I don’t think it’s being used as “lie” here, so much as “and I’m not just saying that, I really mean it”. Rhetoric being used like speech in the sense that it’s something that can be true or false vs something necessarily false
