Clarence Thomas is another great example, George Bush was angry he was going to have to nominate a black man because he was as you might imagine kind of racist so he picked the most incompetent and corrupt black man he could find and rammed him through the Senate.
I think Judge C has had some of the most brilliant legal reasonings in the past century...thank God for him on the court.
I rate him second only to Scalia....
They do point out that it varies by location, but really their number range is terrible. "classified a family of three earning $133,000 to $400,000 in 2024 dollars as upper middle class." From the HUD Section 8 income limits [huduser.gov], expensive places the lower end of that is considered low income, like San Jose 143,600 qualifies for Section 8, versus cities like Akron where 72,250 is low enough to qualify. Location, location, location.
You know, there is a TON of land and cities between the coasts,,,,,with tech jobs and reasonable costs of living....
You do not need to live in NYC or Silicon Valley or anywhere in CA for that matter to earn 6 figures and have. A VERY comfortable life and work in pretty much any industry you can name.
There are plenty jobs of all types with good pay in areas with reasonable costs of living....
Remember the US is a very large country....there's opportunity everywhere...and living outside of NYC doesn't mean the alternate is rural and on a farm...lots of smaller cities out there that are much nicer to live in, not only fiscally, but healthier and calmer too.
Count the number of emails between a company founder and Epstein before you install their code in your Browser or put your data on their platform.
I mean, spies were spying on you?
Not to mock the victims, but c'mon, Nancy, don't be naÃve.
I'd say the better argument is that we should be evolved enough now to know that a highly successful capitalist economy is maybe not the best goal for human happiness, even if it does seem, empirically speaking, to produce the most powerful economies on the planet.
Well...I'm pretty happy,
But sure, you can say capitalism sucks...BUT, it sucks a whole lot less than every other type economy ever tried on earth to date.....
Yeah, Via made a clone that was similar not-quite-i586 fairly recently too.
I have an old embedded box with one that has SATA 6Gbps ports on it that I thought I would use zeroing out old hard drives.
I tried Puppy, DSL, SystemRescueCD, and a bunch of others and none would finish boot. FreeDOS is fine.
It's either eWaste or I need to dig out an Infomagic CD from the attic to get Redhat 9 pr whatever. Probably need to look up when the jump from 3 to 6 happened in SATA land.
But Linus is correct that actual distros don't supoort it. There's one project for composing embedded images that I might try before it hits a shredder. Or NetBSD maybe.
Aside from it just being a scientific research project, in practice even if they were produced in combination it's almost certain that they would be refined and purified for medicinal use.
But it would be much easier to not have to separate them and do one molecule per plant/field.
That aside your monoamine oxidase would prevent all but the psylocin from being orally active. Maaybe if the tobacco were very carefully dried and not fermented you could smoke it.
Now if they were to engineer in some harmaline/telepathine and put it into a tomato you could make some very special marinara sauce. The acids would act like a 'lemon-tec' and heating could perhaps be doing some decarboxalating. I have no idea if people experiment with mushrooms and ayahuasca simultaneously.
I can't wait for the Epstein Class to start raiding pasta shops to protect their black markets.
In New Hampshire people have, in RADAR cases, been able to subpoena the operators, the calibrators, the calibration certificates, and the source code, on these bases.
The judge allows it, the prosecution drops the case.
One strategy is to demand a trial on every small fine to tilt the economics in favor of liberty.
Follow the money.
This stinks of sabotage inflicted by unethically motivated actors.
Presuming they're not just incredible fools, which we ought not assume.
Nah, AWS provides logistics to military and intelligence and has for quite a while.
It's tough to argue, "these aren't military targets, we just rent the equipment and provide services to the military for hundreds of billions of dollars."
Which is probably what people will argue.
Do they only have to state a reason or does somebody have to adjudicate whether that reason is validly "justified"? We have a Public Utilities Commission here that pretends to do such things.
Or is this one of these, "you can't know, so try it and a judge will tell you what the law was" sort of things?
Maybe somebody who understands Italian jurisprudence can clarify their theory of law.
It is something to do with 2 X chromosomes...?
Agreed.
Also Major Tom shouldn't try to fix anything on a spacecraft if it's somebody else's job.
I don't want to say I heard Mission Control on NASA TV reading down a procedure to tell an ISS commander how to tie his shoes but it felt like that.
Velcro, I guess.
Most helpful comment of the week.
Much kudos.
Yes, and they didn't notice that the lab tests were all done with plastic gloves.
