It's been some time since I've read the Mueller report but if I recall, my takeaway was that they did not find evidence of collusion due to obvious obstruction. Mueller didn't think a sitting president could be indicted for obstruction, strongly hinting that if Congress were to impeach him, then he could be indicted.

Of course, we know how that worked out.

You are thinking of criminal cases. This was a civil case, which is a completely different beast.

*Defense. I mean.. we're talking about a US *defense contractor, FFS. Brit and moron American football "D-" plus "picket fence" spelling is not relevant here. Thank you kindly.

Wat?

Let's not forget that the Trump administration, as part of the troop withdrawal deal, released 5000 Taliban fighters.

Ahh yes... Supernova! The film that inspired the most hilarious movie review ever written, hailing from a younger, more innocent internet:

SLAP!

Listen... I have much, much less to worry about for myself and my family from people rioting against the unequal treatment of minorities than people rioting and trying to undermine and crater the very fundamental basics of our democracy.

I mean... do you really not comprehend the difference here?

You just explained the very essence of IT.

If things didn't constantly change, ebb, flow.... vendors wouldn't get rich, the IT technical jobs landscape would be much smaller, and it would be difficult for mid-managers to justify their jobs.

There's only so much change that can happen before you are back to where you were before. You just call it something else. :)

Perhaps. But I think the idea/fantasy (in general, not what we see in this particular case) is that someday they will be fully automated, and that the user will not be required to know how to pilot it or maintain it. There would be a maintenance schedule that occurs where it "drives/flies home" for service to your designated service station down the road. They will be networked as they operate, so that every vehicle is keenly aware of its surroundings and other vehicles, and AI and predictive algorithms will be able to maintain absolute safety and travel efficiency in any mode of operation.

Realistically, though, I don't see them ever being a thing until we get the whole "anti-gravity" thing worked out.

I still think that the Amiga 1200 was the best personal computer ever made.

Insert "Don't know if Poe's Law or just insane" meme here.

I think it's pretty unlikely that he would end up in jail for non-payment of a civil judgement. It's not like he's failing to pay child support.

I suppose if Nintendo felt it was worth their time, they could go back to court to get a garnishment judgement to extract money from his paychecks. There are limits that vary by jurisdiction as to how much they could extract per paycheck ... my understanding is that it's generally a percentage of disposable income.

I don't hold out much hope that Nintendo will see this money. Frankly, I don't think Nintendo does either.

Why would anyone be fired or deplatformed for supporting Kaepernick? There's a world of difference between peacefully protesting the inequitable violence against black males in this country, and perpetuating The Big Lie that not only undermined our democracy, but also lead to a *direct assault* on our democracy.

And I'm not sure what you are trying to say about Kaepernick being "more wealthy now". Is it your contention that he was protesting not because it's truly something he believed in, but rather that he was doing it because he knew he could make more money?

It's really a simple answer: he didn't.

Maybe look into some books on critical thinking?
