Comment Re:So far no consequences (Score 1) 122

No such thing as a "non-MAGA republican" and Carville's incessant cries that there's this mythical bloc of swing voters democrats can appeal to has destroyed the country by causing losing to donald fucking trump *twice*. It's not the economy, it's the perception of the economy... anyone who's not entirely braindead would never vote for the right on the basis of the economy, they're worse for it beyond dispute. Those so woefully uninformed they've never even tried to examine the issue are similarly not voting on the actual economy but on equally poorly founded perception of what's "good for" the economy. And turnout wins and loses elections, not swing voters.
Carville and all you people who listen to that hack need to get over their delusions because his strategies do nothing but trash the economy and everything else that made this country good by throwing elections to the GOP. He's the best Republican strategist there is, convincing Democrats to hand them elections as they shit on their base.

They did no such thing. Qualified immunity is for civil suits, not prosecution. It also dates back long before Roberts, and has been supported by liberal justices and opposed by Thomas. Immunity from criminal prosecution *is* something they also invented, but so far only applies to the President. The only thing stopping criminal prosecution of police is the unwillingness of prosecutors to file charges in most cases, especially for their conduct with suspects.

You'd think they just wouldn't preinstall on Enterprise versions but there's already some Xbox related shit on Win10 IoT Enterprise LTSC. Not just preinstalled but a service that runs by default. Not sure about 11 since despite the barrage of misleading headlines/articles, support for Win10 has not ended for this version and won't for 6 more years (even more if they offer an ESU program), so I won't switch, in part because 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC is already more bloated and still has all the garbage UI stuff. I bet it will get this crap too.

Rogue One was great and IMHO, Andor is the best Star Wars ever made. I understand how someone could be pessimistic after RoS being so unwatchably bad it makes Phantom Menace seem like elite cinema with exquisite writing, but you're really missing out if you haven't seen Andor and Rogue One.

Microsoft has that covered. Go try getting people to take the steps needed to run an unsigned driver, and live with various games and DRM'd crap refusing to run while the mode is active. You have to reboot, trigger the advanced boot menu, then choose to disable signature enforcement for the entire system, every time can't make it persistent, and must have SecureBoot disabled.
Now granted malware etc can evade that, but typically only by exploiting a loaded signed driver... no chance anything doing that doesn't get flagged.
I've been warning for years the existing cert extortion racket wasn't going to stay limited to drivers.

What, did they refuse to pay the charity defrauding, child raping, insurrection committing convicted felon in chief a big enough cut of the profits? Or just accidentally hit one of his cronies? Owner better hope he hid enough away to purchase a pardon... they're surprisingly affordable though. You'd think a president selling out his country would charge more than a few million for a pardon... alas i guess he really needs the gallons of spray tan.

Video could come out of Trump raping toddlers, he could respond by saying 'yes that's real they wanted it and were lucky to get it', and not only would he never go to prison, he wouldn't lose any support. Thinking otherwise after everything that's happened in the last 10 years is just deluding yourself.
