Nah people are still mining away. It's not very sexy though, not compared to maybe 13-14 years ago.
That's the condition today. If Cali keeps scaling out with more solar panels, there will be even more excess power output.
Desalination is a good idea. So is wastewater treatment.
Mine crypto.
Purify wastewater.
Generate hydrogen or synthetic fuels.
Etc.
Even the most professional of officers would be tempted if he was was cheating on him or if someone delivered a credible threat to the safety of his children.
The best way to prevent this kind of abuse is to make it impossible.

I don't see it. For example, cell phone records are only recorded and accessible via warrant, and by presenting that warrant to a provider directly. Same could be done with E2EE data if forced through the cell phone provider's networks.
That would mean an end to E2EE APIs on cell phones and other devices, which may be practically impossible at this point.
Edward Snowden showed that this is not as true as you seem to think it is.

Oh dear lord, the hyperbole. We allow law enforcement access to all other forms of communication with a lawful warrant. So should this particular technology be exempt from that?
Then, let them serve the warrant.
What is different is that for the first time in human history, it's not only possible but it's practical to have encrypted communications that no one can access except for the intended recipient.
All of "the most heinous of crimes" take place in the real world, there is some physical action that can be detected and punished. I don't care if this makes the job of law enforcement harder. I want law enforcement to be a difficult and time consuming job. Idle and bored cops tend to find ways to fill their time and it's never good.

I've been thinking about adding solar panels to my house. I would love if I could get a federal subsidy to do it. However, just like with my student loan forgiveness, I'm NOT giving Biden my vote in exchange.

Trump is mad. He's been anti-FISA since it came out that the Steele dossier was used to secure FISA warrants against his campaign staffers in 2026.
You'd have to kick him pretty hard, since he's in the House, not the Senate.
Seems like the people contributing to the organization should have asked for an audit at least a year ago if those expense numbers are accurate.
That would be a catastrophe!
If only you could flip a car and have it stay in the air semi-perpetually.
