You said it sarcastically, but doesn’t that truly address the situation that you and others believe is occurring, in a non-discriminatory way?

Why?

These people also never consider that they’re measuring the wrong thing. If they’re taking the position that the effects of testosterone from birth in trans M-to-F kids gives them an unfair advantage due to bone density and muscle mass, then they’re failing to take into account that there are a number of natural health conditions that produce elevated testosterone levels in women as well.

I’m not saying this to be funny, but women with stubble especially around the chin often have elevated T levels, often due to PCOS. There truly are some women who are “built like a man” and they’re not trans - at least certainly not in the way we use the term today. They’re natural, their bodies just work differently.

Banning trans kids isn’t going to level the playing field in the way they say they want to. Measuring things that testosterone affects like bone density would.

You need the directory for the mount point.

If you punch someone on the nose, you can't expect sympathy when they punch back. This isn't going to produce the result Hamas was going for.

They're not unemployed or underemployed by any common definition of those words. If California wants to support striking workers, great, but it shouldn't be under these programs.

And realistically there's no reason why this isn't a Union problem to solve instead of a government one. Dues are paid for a reason.

I'll be the heretic here, but so far as I know you are only required to make source available when you distribute binaries. And for that matter, it doesn't even have to be online just available upon request unless you're using a derivative GPL that added online access as a clause.

I highly doubt the users of a web interface are required to be given access to source. There are multiple GPL-licensed web servers (I am well aware Apache is not btw) and I've never seen one embed a code link on every page.

Tl;Dr: Lemmy does it, but I believe it's not required. Modify away if you so choose.

There really is nothing close to Google Photos outside of Synology. And it’s not 100% in terms of search but it’s getting there.

You can run the Synology software via a loader on commodity hardware or on a hosting platform provided the platform supports VMWare ESXi or the like.

You misread his/her comment. They were saying to park wounded soldiers at every presser, not to comment in violation of the Hatch Act.

Why all the fucking lawyers (indictment of them)? Why a massive laundry list of false statements, false testimony, et al?

Because lawyers have a sworn obligation to enter evidence and testimony they understand to be truthful and argue in pleadings in a manner that they understand to be legally sound and in compliance with the rules of the court in the state of the filing. Trump used a number of lawyers - dating at least back to Cohen - who were willing and comfortable breaking both of those ethical obligations.

Put simply, lawyers do not have a free speech right to say anything they wish in court.

Nobody is being charged with what you’re describing. If that’s what they’re trying to prosecute trump for, then fucking charge him with it. The Twitter bullshit was sedition. The pence shenanigans was electoral fraud (maybe not pence personally, but the conversation was absolutely fraud on Trump’s part).

They’ve got to be able to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt, and realistically he’s getting more deference on that front than any other American in history. The number of people who believe nothing he does is wrong, is astounding. I fully expect the Georgia indictment to add charges through discovery and witness cooperation deals. The RICO indictment gives them a lot of wiggle room to tie Trump to the crimes of others.

The charges reflect a fishing expedition. We don’t like this guy, lets dig some shit up…

Hard disagree. The charges reflect the stark reality that the normal institutions that should have handled this situation are broken. In any normal reality, Trump should have been successfully impeached during one of his two impeachments or impeached a third time for January 6th. Mitch McConnell’s argument that a trial was moot, was not founded in the law. As impeachment includes barring the convict from future Federal office they could have and should have tried him in the Senate.

I have zero doubt that the currently sitting Republicans will weaponize government against anyone who didn’t bend the knee including Biden. They’re not even waiting, if you’re following along they’re trying their best to remove or pressure Fani Willis in the middle of a perfectly valid criminal trial. That is the weaponization of government.

I just don’t like that this entire process is pretty clearly a matter of politics rather than justice. It’s a political headhunt, and it’s very reminiscent of pre-collapse Soviet government. We’re trying to fill the gulags up in this motherfucker. I’m not really speaking in support of the defense, Im speaking against the witch hunt.

You have really jumped the shark, friend. This is anything but a politically-motivated protection. And your allusion to Soviet Russia is comical, in a world where Putin blew up a rival last month.

Trump brought us as close to the collapse of American democracy as we have been since the Civil War, and arguably closer. It’s hard to deny there were two plots to replace Mike Pence before the election was certified: a subgroup of the protesters wanted to hang him, and part of the Secret Service detail was ready to escort/detain him away from the capital. They didn’t even try to hide it - Grassley said he planned on presiding over the Senate. They walked it back, but it happened.

If this were truly a political witch-hunt, Trump would be either incarcerated for life already, or dead and buried.

This is bullshit. I’m not fucking buying this. You can’t testify to something directly in opposition to a prior testimony and have any value whatsoever, period.

Sure you can. Especially if he can bring receipts related to why he was lying. Threats, promises of compensation, etc. Is it ideal that he lied under oath? Of course not. And it opens a giant door for the defense to challenge all of his testimony but it’s not irrecoverable.

Much as you seem to wish it was.

That’s a lot of words to be wrong, friend-o.

Saying “Are you sure you don’t want to revise your testimony, because we have factual evidence that it’s false and that may lead to an indictment for perjury.” isn’t extortion, it’s allowing this guy to not loyalty his way into a felony.

Imagine, the police/prosecution use their discretion and don’t throw the book at someone and idiots still take exception to it

Good.

Funny, Taffer was in my head when I was writing that. This is the level of come-to-Jesus Linus needs.

I expect today there’s a conversation going on between Terren, Yvonne and Linus:

"Linus, you need to decide if you want to be the public face and final authority of LMG, or if you want to be the owner of a successful business that you occasionally participate in with limited official interactions outside the board level.

If the company continues to have crisis moments and negative PR events on the scale we’ve had the past few days, you will be the owner of nothing but debt and depreciation. And frankly, I’m not going to stay here and ride the company down into disaster. You’re the owner, if you want to continue to run the company as it has been ultimately it’s your right but I will be stepping away. I implore you to make the right decision not just for yourself but all the employees at LMG who depend on their income from working here."

Yes. If it’s a workplace injury, OSHA has the authority to come in and dictate mitigation measures.

Clearly this isn’t true.

So, I am an engineer/scientist. Products that I have developed/contributed to development are used by billions of people. Most likely you, the reader of this comment are using it right now, because some of the products I worked on are telecom products, that are widely used to transfer information.

You’re an employee, actors are (generally) independent contractors so the comparison breaks down. Most people who don’t understand the situation have been making this comparison.

The closer analogy for you would be if you, as an independent engineer, created a library that Oracle licensed instead of bought. Something they are bundling into their latest database server.

Should you, as a developer, take less per unit because Oracle starts selling through a new channel? Say the Windows app store instead of through their website directly?

I mean, it’s ok if you feel like that’s ok but I don’t think most people would agree with you when they really understand what’s going on.

The unions gave the studios a sweetheart deal in the infancy of streaming so that it wouldn’t smother in the crib. Now that it’s profitable, don’t the artists and writers deserve the same level of compensation for streaming as they get through other channels? Not more, just the same.

Yes. Trump has literally said he won’t adhere to the results of the primary and will run regardless.

I mean this in the least condescending way possible, but you don’t understand how American politics works.

The absolute best scenario for Democrats is for the Republicans to split their ticket between Trump and DeSantis - or anyone else, but there doesn’t seem to be anyone else thus far with his pull on the national stage.

It’ll be Clinton-Bush-Perot but in reverse.
