clearly copyrighted content

Is it, though? The recordings contain a lot of audience cheering, talking and laughter; miscellaneous background noise, and echos of the subject content -- the music. If the recording was made in a park, and a car randomly drove by with the radio turned up while a song was playing, would anyone argue the recording was copyrighted? Obviously, the intent of each of these recordings was to capture the music. But, the recordings were made by a private individual -- they're HIS recordings. I'd argue that if anyone owns a copyright on them, he does.

You sound like a car salesman.

I mostly run application fullscreen and switch between them. The only exception is when I'm comparing the content of two windows (in which case I tile horizontally or vertically) and file selection (floating).

When an application uses the entire screen without the window decorations needed in a regular window manager, a screen's limited real estate is in fact better used in a tiled window manager.

Tiled windows don't solve a problem. They're just a different workflow. I've used both for decades and neither is inherently faster or better. It's just what you prefer.

At any rate, don't knock it till you try it.

on all my machines. Once you get past the tiled window manager paradigm - if you've never used one before - you realize how fast and seamless it is, and it truly is the least common denominator in terms of memory usage.

I left Mint (which is really a Ubuntu derivative) years ago, and now i3 / Sway let I have the same unified desktop on all my machines, fast or slow, new or old, and they all feel perfectly usable.

I highly recommend spending the time to create a i3 or Sway config file. It's well worth the effort and it's a one-off.

And if you just want to try i3 or Sway on your existing distro, install it and simply change the Window manager for your user in the display manager: it lives totally independently of whatever your currently use, so it's risk-free.

If you set it to "85th percentile of observed traffic" you are selecting 15% to be targets of fines. Why 15 and not 20, or 10?

States with "reasonable and prudent" rather than "explicit speed limits" do a more logically consistent job here. Reasonable and prudent is what we're really looking for - everyone choose a speed that is safe for the conditions of the road, the vehicle, and the surrounding traffic.

The problem is that it's difficult to fine people for that, because it is partly subjective and different for every driver and weather conditions. It's much easier to set an explicit speed limit and then measure speeds. Explicit speed limits exist for the convenience of the courts, with safety of the road users as a distant secondary objective.

If you want to improve safety, then look into "traffic calming" measures. In particular those that cause drivers to perceive higher risk (and research into conditions where drivers falsely perceive lower risk). Even just drawing the lines narrower on a wide street can have an effect. If you design the road right, drivers will naturally choose the right speed for the environment without any need for a road nanny.

for the illegal tariffs to be struck down.

But I keep all my vaping equipment - mod, drippers and all manners of accessories - from the early teens when vaping was free, unregulated and not yet killed by Big Pharma. Hell, I still have 3 gallons of 100mg nic base in blue bottles with nitrogen in storage in the freezer from that time.

I was a big vaping enthusiast for years. It's what kept me from smoking again. I've quit smoking and vaping for years, but just in case I decide to pick up vaping again - like if I'm diagnosed with cancer again, and it's terminal this time - I keep all that good stuff from a better past.

Totally agree with your apt comparison. Now, in the same vein, are message forums liable for statements made by its users?

You misspelled "intrusive".

You're such a pussy. I've been thrown against a car, roughly frisked and told in "clear terms" at the top of his voice if I moved he'd beat my ass. Why? Because I matched the general description of someone who had broken into a nearby home, roughed up the residents and stole their shit and he was calling me in.

It was night time on my regular walk through a nice residential neighborhood. When he confirmed I wasn't the guy and some other cops had the right guy 2 blocks away, he only said, "you're not who I'm looking for, you can go" and he left. End of story.

I finished my walk and went home. Just another night.

Only pussies like you cry like a bitch about a cop telling them to move their illegally parked car. That's all that would have happened if the cop showed at the museum for the bitchy rent a cop. I told you, pussy, I lived in some really rough places. Getting shoved around by a cop was the least of my fears. It was just another Tuesday.

You silly little silver spooned white guys. Such a pussy you post your dumb shit AC.

Or if everyone was armed then the more likely scenario than everyone in the area opening fire like some 80s Hong Kong mob movie is they would've dropped/hid or run screaming the moment they saw a gun or heard a gun shot.

Having lived in some really bad places, I know first hand that's what people do. Real life is not a Hong Kong action movie.

If the attacker and taxi victims all had guns, then the whole thing would've been over in seconds after anyone pulled a firearm.

Are you a script writer? Maybe write fiction as a hobby? Your version would make for a better movie than what would really happen. You should flesh it out and submit your script. I love those old HK over the top super action films; I'd watch your movie.

This is San Francisco. In this case the article does say the cops eventually showed which is very surprising for San Francisco.

The last time I was in the city and got into it with some rent a cop about where I parked, he threatened to call the cops. I told him to "go ahead, I'll be here another 20 minutes and we both know they won't show before I'm gone, if they show at all". He walked away. I left 30 minutes later.

No cops, of course.

In some other nearby cities it's a reasonable expectation that local PD will show for anything in 5-10 minutes but not SF. Just not realistic to expect a cop to show up in SF for anything minor like a psycho being egged on by a psycho crowd as he tries to break into a car to murder the passengers.

And for the record, I was waiting after hours in the back area loading/unloading zone for large trucks at SF Moma which is down a back alley side street and wasn't in the way of anything and easily could have moved out of the way if a truck did show up. Lillie rent a cop girl came out to harass me first then she sent huge rent a cop guy. Seriously, fuck off, it's SF, what are you really gunna do? That's just how it is in ugly uncivilized cities like that.

If that wasn't some tech bro robo taxi I doubt the cops would've showed up at all. Not in SF for little people.

Oh, now THIS is true irony because when I made this account I was -specifically- thinking of you.

There are a lot of stupid people here but you stand out as so special in dumbness I made a new account in your dishonor.

I am a stupid fuck and dumb as shit but I am still way smarter than you.

Welcome to slashdot, ruled by the Dunning Kruger crowd suffocating in their echo chamber of idiocy.

He had WiFi or 4G on the aircraft carrier? I don't think so.

And if the Strava app uploaded the logged run later when it got connectivity at port or something, by then the ship was long gone.
