This is very much not that!

A government hosted service would have to be in compliance with record keeping requirements. Conversations like this chat group are subject to the presidential records act and would need to be kept in case of future FOIA requests.

Signal does not do that. In fact, Signal can’t do that (because they can’t see the messages). So using Signal instead of proper government communications channels is a deliberate way to not leave a paper trail. Almost like they think they have something to hide.

I don’t think you can generalize to the degree you are implying here.

There are significant differences between how we (as in humans) act outside the family and inside the family. Somebody may be toxic, have substance abuse issues, or display sociopathic traits outwardly but be a kind, loving and caring person towards their children. This discrepancy would of course create conflict, but parents not being perfect is also perfectly normal and happens in middle class families too.

I personally know a couple of people from fairly rich families. And while some of them definitely had toxic parents, some did not. Most of them are just people. In a lot of cases its just a case of ignorance. How they react to being confronted with their ignorance is IMHO more relevant for character judgement and that is also a trait instilled by their parents.

For what it’s worth, the absolutely worst parents I know are thoroughly middle class.

Since we are talking about payment systems that interact with other banking systems, they will not be actually air gapped. By the nature and purpose of the systems in question, they must have access to the physical Internet (even if it is entirely abstracted away under layers of VPNs and encryption).

Assuming them compromised is prudent. Physical access is total access.

I have yet to see credible evidence of tampering with votes or election infrastructure.

Voter suppression happened, but that looks like established praxis for US elections.

So your dear leader was democratically elected. The question is: Does that matter?

For Hitler it took 60 days from legally and lawfully obtaining chancellor ship to the first trains rolling into the first camps.

You guys are at day 16.

What is the use case you are looking for?

Is it for accessibility to read out text on a website? Recording voice lines for YouTube videos?

It’s almost like you could check out the linked campaign and answer that question with a couple of minutes reading.

The money goes to supporting pixelfed, loops and sup development, with the goal being financing full time development for the entire team.

Specifically where it relates to violent crime.

Essentially it is supposed to make statements like the following a rule violation:

“If someone murdered [fictional person] they would totally get acquitted because any jury would just nullify the charges.”

While the following sentence would not be a violation of TOS:

“The murderer of UHC CEO Brian Thompson should get acquitted via Jury Nullification because [reasons] and this is super dope.”

The first example could be read as a call to violence, while the 2nd is not calling for a crime.

As I understand it “All future jurors in money laundring cases should nullify, because tax evasion is… like… super cool” would also be legal, because money laundring is not a violent crime.

Unfortunately, the only hardware component you can actually download is RAM. And increased hardware prices are going to be the primary cost factor.

I cant speak to CoD specifically, but being able to locate opponents, shots, activity etc by sound is a massive advantage in many multiplayer shooters. I can personally vouch for its relevance in CS, Apex Legends, Arma 2&3, The Finals, DayZ, and Battlefield.

For your viewing pleasure I leave you with this Viva La Dirt League skit: https://youtu.be/sC8qtyGoGZw

Step 1. Think of a game that you loved 10+ years ago and you can’t buy anymore (like Black & White, Need For Speed: Underground,…)

Step 2. Go to myabandonware.com and use the search function.

Step 3. Use Lutris to manage the installation process.

You won’t get everything. But you will get a lot of things.

It’s not lost if you are capable of going to myabandonware.com and using KurtisLutris.

Good effort, regardless.

The toolset they use to run their containerlike system wrapping the games is called “pressure vessel”.

Wenn die Wurst zwei Enden hat, hat Pi eins (an der Seite wo es mit 3.14 aufhört). Pi ist Remmler-konsistent.

Very important.

I’m sure there are other similar services in other countries.

Just to be clear: Dutch people agree that rapists of 12 year old girls (such as the convicted child rapist van de Velde, who raped a 12 year old girl) should be punished and not go on to represent their country at the Olympics. There may however be old farts and creeps in positions of power that try to make excuses for convicted child rapist Van de Velde who believe a technicality over an unprovable state of mind matter when it comes to the damage caused by having a convicted child rapist represent your country both to the victim of convicted child rapist Van de Velde and to the reputation of the Netherlands.

TLDR: Convicted child rapist Van de Velde should be kicked off his team and the Member of the committee that thought it was relevant whether he is paedophile or not should resign. Both are a disgrace to the country and should not be used as representatives.

1. I don’t see how the supreme Court has jurisdiction over the candidate selection process for either party.
2. The VP candidate is picked by the presidential nominee in both parties, so I don’t see why Trump changing his pick should be an issue (other than to confirm 100% that he has 0 loyalty and waffles on even the most trivial issues).
3. They are not gonna swap him out.

Membership fee? For shaving?

No. He is bad and he should feel bad. He was sad because his evil plans didn’t work out the way he had hoped. He is alone because he abuses the people around him because he considers himself a superior being for whom others are just play things.

His backstory of abuse goes a way to explain why he is the way he is, but it does not excuse it.
