Does the DOJ’s opinion, binding or not, actually matter with respect to this though? Impeachment is solely the prerogative of the House, and more broadly Congress. I don’t see how the DOJ as part of the executive branch can thus bind the House at all in this.

(Also worth noting that Impeachment technically isn’t a legal matter – it is a political process.)

It’s an extinct volcano, so yes.

Because there’s sales text in the “educational” article.

You should use an XMPP server that respects your privacy. If you truly want privacy and don’t want to trust any server, we recommend setting up your own server. If this beyond your technical interests then we can setup a server for you and hand over the passwords. If we setup a server for you, then you’d pick the domain name and get complete control over who can use it.

But his support for riling the base up was of the Tea Party, not MAGA, flavour.

That seems like a distinction without a difference.

Not to mention it solves nothing for the mass shooting epidemic. Most of them seem suicidal anyway.

Obviously it doesn’t apply to .com or .xyz, but in addition to the concerns about being locked in to Cloud flare’s name servers, they don’t support some gTLDs right now.

Because they’re a disorganized clusterfuck and he couldn’t be bothered to slightly delay filming to get the proper card. Because for whatever reason they’ve decided they must churn out content at such a high pace that everything they do is like this now.

Honestly the only videos from the last year where I remember things not being totally jank were videos with Emily, but she’s barely been in anything since coming out a few months ago.

Tbh that’s how almost all of their projects seem to be now. Woefully unprepared, full of jank.

It’s true that would be the ideal way to go about this. However, I’m also weighing that vs Linus saying this should’ve been handled privately (which implies off the record).

The last time something like this happened it was made clear GN was going to cover LMG as the corporation it is, not as an individual where you might hash things out privately first.

It’s been clear for quite a while that they’ve focused only on growth/expansion with more channels, the lab, so many new employees, etc and at the same time you can see the sloppiness getting worse with lack of preparation, lack of quality control to meet deadlines, etc.

The Billet Labs thing is absolutely inexcusable. Shitting on the product despite LMG being the one responsible for not even having the correct GPU for it, giving it a bad review, then doubling down when called out over a couple hundred bucks of time? The auctioned off prototype is so much worse as well. Not sure of the Canadian terms but in the US it’d potentially be theft by conversion. Literally sold someone else’s property. Even if you give them the benefit of the doubt and accept it as an accident, it seems like more evidence of whoever is running their logistics department being incompetent IMO.

If it’s not that feature, it’s likely either memory tuning or battery optimization stuff. Some phone manufacturers set those values to levels that are more aggressive than they really need to be, leading to processes being terminated in the background when they ideally shouldn’t.

It seems to me that if the point is to preserve the option in case of litigation: having the would-be electors meet, conduct a vote, fill out certificates, and hold them until possible certification by the governor might have been fine. This is basically what happened in Hawaii in 1960 – the Democratic slate was only sent to Washington once certified by the governor.

Going ahead and transmitting them and purporting them to be the actual certificates seems like a fraud.

Yes I’m sure it’ll be plagued by technical problems, and obviously the privacy implications.

As for opting in – that depends on whether this is approved as a method and then who adopts it and whatever they decide. Unless they’re brain dead there will need to be a process for failures, so that could conceivably apply to people who opt out as well

Okay, so this isn’t a new law or regulation. This is the ESRB and a couple companies requesting approval for a new method of providing verifiable parental consent to be acceptable to use for the purpose of satisfying COPPA’s existing requirements. From what I can find, the current approved methods of verifying parental consent appear to be:

• submitting a signed form or a credit card

• talking to trained personnel via a toll-free number or video chat

• answering a series of knowledge-based challenge questions

Instead this would be handing the device to a parent, they snap a selfie and it gets analyzed for age estimation to determine if the person providing parental consent is an adult.

Good or bad, too invasive, idk, not really making a judgement there myself. I’d imagine the companies want this so they don’t have to have as many trained personnel and it’s probably less likely to be a barrier to consent as compared to putting in a credit card, talking to someone, or answering whatever knowledge-based challenges they use.

I don’t think it should be reserving 8GB in any case.

Edit: plus it’s a Ryzen 2600. No iGPU.

When did the issue start? Did you install new RAM? Are both the new sticks identical or of mixed make? A new CPU? Did you unseat and reseat the CPU or anything before this started?

You tried different RAM? Was it properly addressed or no? Did you try the current or different RAM stick by stick to verify each one is working on its own and then in the recommended slots as per your motherboard manual?

These steps/questions are necessary to determine whether the issue is a bad memory stick, something funky going on with the memory controller wrt slots, timings, combination of different modules, etc, or even the possibility of a defective memory controller or a bent/broken pin on the CPU.

That looks like a snippet the system properties menu in Windows. It’s detecting all of the RAM but it isn’t that only 7.92GB is free – rather only 7.92GB is capable of being addressed, due to something going wrong.

That’s not a free vs used thing, that’s a message from the OS that it can’t be addressed, so something is wrong with the configuration.

So you’re saying commenters are jerks - which is out of his control - then you speculate that you “wouldn’t be surprised if he has changed for the worst”

Not who you’re responding to, but despite it being “out of his control”, it still greatly diminishes my desire to watch the videos, to chat in live streams, or otherwise engage.

“…and running across the street to an identical building that is infested with rats and cockroaches!”

Still better than Nazis.

The major scenario that I at least hope holds true out of this is that the AI “creations” aren’t eligible for copyright themselves. If the powers that be allow all this AI created stuff copyright protection it’s going to be a gigantic mess.

Good on the developers/maintainers. Why develop a moderation tool without payment for a platform that considers you a leech?

Outside? No, the excretory inspectors must fully observe the process of urination and defecation from start to finish. No one in Florida must use the toilet unsupervised. Brought to you by the party of Small Government™.

Typically the tech bro billionaires buying those tend to fall into the realm of people who expect to be unquestioned dictators of their own little fiefdoms in a post-apocalyose scenario. To the point of shock collars to keep other people in line, etc.

Like /u/spez.

They were purchased by Snapchat last year. So this is probably Snapchat seeing it as only a cost center with no return. Which tbh, it probably is.

Yeah since interest rates are high they actually want returns on their investments.

My parents were alive and in schools when segregation in education was ending. Decades of Jim Crow laws holding people down isn’t simply remedied by saying “We’re all equal now.” and doing nothing to redress the damage inflicted through the abuse of governmental power. Especially not when “We’re all equal now.” is largely lip service and systemic racism is still prevalent.

Not a huge deal. Trump and Nauta get the list anyway. Filing it under seal just hides it from the public and press, and this denial was essentially that the prosecution didn’t even make an argument as to why it should be sealed. The court wants a reason, not “just because.”

You also can’t sell it, and thus also can’t buy it used. This is the final move to end the used market for console games.

Mastodon is AGPLv3. That means if you allow someone to communicate with a server, you must offer them the modified source code. Not just when you distribute the modified code like in the GPLv3. So even if they forked Mastodon their code modifications would need to be made available.

However iirc ActivityPub itself is under a more permissive scheme (I think it’s predecessor was using the MIT license?) so Meta could use the protocol itself.

inb4 spez rants about him releasing private email conversations.

Yep I followed multiple subs with overlapping content, especially with technology, PC hardware, etc etc
