...and they can legally BRIBE the president for the pardon too!

Replacing the court every four years wouldn't be that bad if the courts were more efficient. As it stands, however, cases can take over a decade during which any such SCOTUS rulings could flip flop entirely, resulting in legal chaos

Fascism is a political ideology and system (sort of) that requires a whole lot of people to keep it in place. A "lone President" assassinating his political rivals in a single act is just a regular old dictator move. No fascis

No, that's the old way . The new way is for the President to issue an executive order to have their target officially arrested, rendered somewhere overseas, and then follow up with an official order to have them assassinated (just de

> The President is ultimately largely beholden to Congress. The government cannot sink into a dictatorship without the explicit approval of the majority of Congress. This is nonsense. The President can just assassinate all of their poli

If a president assassinates his political rivals I don't think you can say it's, "an issue for voters or congress to decide on." That would be impossible, since anyone the voters wanted to replace the sitting executive
277.

That's irrelevant since the SCOTUS ruling is all about what happens after a president is no longer president. Impeachment only applies to a sitting president. Not one who is no longer in office.

> And yet he left office on the appointed day and lost an election. Only because his coup failed. That's a very important fact.

I was very excited about this but I must say I lost a lot of that excitement when I found out it's written in a non-memory-safe language (C++). Browsers are one of the few things we use every day that really need to be as safe and s

Are we certain it's not the other way around? Conspiracist world views could also be what leads to loneliness (because nobody wants to hang out with you).

I also work at a large financial institution and have had many similar situations. Fortunately, I'm the one in charge (team lead of sorts) and I have a pretty standard response to such "high level" nonsense: "Your inabi

The problem is that certification takes SO LONG and they're not allowed to change the firmware while it's being certified or afterwards. What this means that FIPS certification is an indication of an inherently insecure devic

Someone already commented about pthalates themselves but I'd also like to point out that a big problem with microplastics isn't the microplastics themselves but the fact that they absorb other chemicals which can then be released&

The AEC standards aren't enforced by anything and are mostly just promises that chip manufacturers make (the AEC itself is a private entity). Specifically, that any given chip will still be available in 15 years and that it'll

I used to have the same beliefs but the flexibility of being able to use just about any pin for any purpose really sold me on the RP2040. When I decide to add a new feature to my boards I don't have to spend an hour examining the mi

Since the RP2040 uses external flash you can pre-program the flash chips before they even get soldered on to the board. Other standard methods still work like breaking out the debug pins to some spot on your PCB so you can quickly "po

Even with chip security features this is still the case (if an attacker gets their hands on it it can be compromised). There's no chip that exists that I'm aware of that can't be compromised to have its firmware dumped. It&#

Python 4 should implement namespaces that make it trivially easy to differentiate between local and external modules.

Having a global style policy (for imports) doesn't seem like relying on others to "do the right thing". It's just style and is completely arbitrary. Someone probably encountered a problem with having a mishmash of way

This is one of the benefits of having all your libraries/modules in a monolithic repo: You can refactor the names of everything pretty easily. It'd be a BIG commit but it's still a trivial task to rename something like `tex

I wonder if this only counts for variable names in English? For example, if you're making a package that you would name, 'rate' perhaps translate that to a different language before naming your package. Examples: ta

Typically they don't make you sign a release. That's normally only done if they're interviewing you. I've been recorded in protests, had my picture taken with my name in the caption, and been in newspapers and on the (lo

It would be fun to have a committee to decide--regularly, maybe even weekly--what sorts of timely questions should be asked to determine if someone's old enough to view porn. The meetings would be hilarious! Everyone knows the class

I don't know about other demos but that one in particular would be trivially easy to create using KDE's desktop effects zoom feature and OBS screen recording (tell it to record a specific window).

Generative AI hasn't been around long enough and even now is still prohibitively expensive (for training/research). It is highly suspect that any shortage of AI workers could be filled by importing them. I find it much more likel
