Woofer posted:Nah I get it in this case man. It’s lovely and heartbreaking that we have a motherfucking government run website that is stockpiling letters of children begging for the basic poo poo they should never have to ask for. Thanks, I didn't think about it that way until you brought it up. Went from kinda depressing to really fuckin' sad in about one post.

CBJSprague24 posted:I can't wait to see what the chuds say if he pardons himself. "He's just being smart because the obviously biased FBI and Biden DOJ would not give him a fair shake anyway" Although I don't know if you can grant a blanket "I pardon myself for crimes that may or may not have taken place during the years 2016-2020", problems with pardoning himself aside, like do you have to be specific about what crime your pardoning a dude for?

Kazinsal posted:Dude's basically paralleling Lowtax's career as an edgy internet funnyman, but 15 years later. This is his Uwe Boll moment, and it's going to be hilarious. Except Uwe Boll was a hobbiest boxer at best IIRC, whereas Floyd is in the top X% of professional boxers. So if Floyd deigns to actually get in the ring there is no way on earth he's gonna get touched by anything he doesn't want to get touched by and Logan will have his teeth by the end of it based on if this is a shoot or a work. edit: read the article, it's a work brother.

What exactly is surprise billing? Is it that bullshit where you pay your copay, the insurance pays whatever, and it's been like two months because of insurance paperwork and you end up getting billed a couple hundred bucks because insurance didn't cover everything?

stackofflapjacks posted:This article is really cool, also features goon hero Bellingcat! Doing his usual, tracking the bio chem FSB unit that did the poisoning through flight logs and phone records. I'm really curious as to the security measures this dude has. I've studied some amount of executive protection stuff and have friends who currently do it for B-list celebs, and I can't imagine how you would keep this dude alive even if the Russian Government has a want to maintain some amount of direct deniability. I assume a lot of it has to be he rotates living quarters frequently, his food/drink is procured by layers of cutouts, and he doesn't go outside much.

hobbesmaster posted:This assumes Russia doesn’t actually want the foreign public to know what they’re doing. Considering the response to assassination attempts on foreign soil is “so what are you going to do about it” the bellingcats of the world are probably neutral to good in Putin’s view There's a difference between having a dude suicided, get stabbed during a mugging, or get sick and die, and having the police just straight up arrest the dude and put a bullet in the dudes dome. I assume its because the government wants to maintain some amount of direct deniability with regards to the dudes mysteriously untimely death for whatever reason. I feel like you wouldn't use your special toxin commando team on a dude you don't care if he lives or dies.

MazelTovCocktail posted:It probably looks to harm D’s more Centrists, both right and left leaning apply this phrase to any piece of action or legislation that isn't just doing what the republicans want the vast majority of the time. So there will need to come a point when one must ask themselves, If they really want a left leaning ostenisibly progressive party or do they just want a republican party that they can tell their LGBTQIA+ and Minority friends they're apart of without getting dirty looks.

Eej posted:$2000 to an hourly worker can quite literally save their life. $2000 to a software engineer is a nice bonus. A person making 6 figures is benefiting less from a universal payout than someone who is living paycheque to paycheque. Giving everyone money is a lot easier and probably more effective than figuring out some sorta means test hurdle that screws some amount of people that actually need it. Worst case scenario in giving computer touchers 2k is that they go and spend it on food, stupid electronics crap, or spends it repaying loans.

joat mon posted:Essentially. It means you can't refuse to testify by pleading the 5th with regard to the pardoning jurisdiction. This is the actual legal rule of the Easlick case, not the 'finding of guilt' (implicit or otherwise) tweetbait. So effectively if you get brought to court on matters relating to the pardon you have to either tell the truth or perjure yourself?

As a current GA resident, I better be seeing my phone get blown up with GOTV involving mcconnell stopping the 2000$ stimulus. Otherwise whoever runs GOTV for the democrats is a fuckin' waste of time, and should stop loving texting me. Republicans have been slamming my parents phone with "BACK THE BLUE!!!!" and "A NUCLEAR IRAN IS THE WORST THING!" tripe, and all I've gotten is basically the text version of that political cartoon where it shows democrats going "golly gee wouldn't it be wonderful if you voted for us?"

MazelTovCocktail posted:There has to be a way, along with DMCA reform, lower the liability shield and not cripple everything. I mean sure, you'd probably have to turn ISPs into a utility, reform IP/CW law with regards to the internet, and still probably give some liability protection to "cloud providers". There are relatively easier and less liable to actually hurt people who use the internet to accomplish what you want, which I'm supposing is to punish FAANGs for all their lovely decisions.

Proud Christian Mom posted:repealing 230 is better than what we're doing now I don't see how. FANGs and near fang people have the capital to hire lawyers, moderators, and infrastructure to have it be a non issue, Bigger ISP's are the same. So you've basically just increased the barrier to entry for starting an ISP or creating any sort of hosting competitors. Not saying giant tech companies aren't gonna fight it, because it will cut into their bottom line, but goog and facebook aren't gonna stop being number 1 in their field if you spite everyone equally.

Nystral posted:Source? All I know about Ossof is that he failed to get the house seats in 18 and this campaign now. He's kinda a Milquetoast kinda dude as far as Democrats go. His 18 campaign was basically a stock standard "reasonable He would not have had a snowballs chance in hell of winning had Covid never happened, because Perdue's not hated enough to suppress his own turn out, he's not charismatic or inspirational enough to get people out to vote for him who might have otherwise stayed home, and Trump isn't near hated enough down here.
