We have jury nullifications (this guy isn’t the only one to have a grand jury refuse to indict amid the Trump administration’s occupation of DC) happening before the case even gets to go to trial. It’s not enough (anything short of removal of the whole administration and their enablers isn’t enough) but it’s a step in a good direction.
The grand jury that would not indict a ham sandwich.
Because the “have fun being poor (as I gamble my life savings on a website with pump and dump basically in the name)” crowd outnumbers and is much louder than the “I am using this decentralized currency because authoritarians will inevitably strangle anything with a single point of control” crowd.
It makes what they did to Murphy to create RoboCop doubly evil, but I’ve been led to believe that that’s one of the big messages of the movie.
Their plan? Bring it about so that Rocko’s Modern Basilisk can torture the unbelievers (as if hearing their inchoate speculation about what the-computer-that-can’t-even-do-math-consistently will one day be able to do isn’t already torment enough).
These dumbasses have reinvented premillennial dispensationalism.
For the rest of us, I guess Butlerian Jihad is always an option.
Oh good, the Burrito Taxi app’s gonna tell me I can order the Whopper from McDonald’s.
Also, this is the exact kind of transaction they had in mind when they created the tech, but everyone decided it was only ever for drugs, because that’s what the Wall St owned media told them to think
What were the completely legal products that had Visa and Mastercard standing on the sidelines in 2009? Because without a real life example, I don’t think big media had to do much to get people to ignore this use case at the time.
If people had used cryptocurrency as a currency instead of as a “it’s totally not a security, we swear, even though we’re only saying that to evade SEC regulations a little longer” there’d be a lot fewer people calling it a scam.
For sixteen years, crypto’s only use cases seemed to be buying illegal goods and securities fraud. Finally, we have another use case presenting: perfectly legal transactions that credit card companies have gotten cold feet about.
Demanding that businesses not poison people downwind/downstream from the factory is not giving an unfair advantage to businesses that have good processes.
Every time I pull the string on the back of this doll it says something nice to me. Is this true love?
It’s decidedly not suspicious. However, considering how hard Trump has been trying to hide the well-known fact that he spent an awful lot of time with his good buddy the child rapist/trafficker, I’m certainly not going to complain that it’s making people look at all of that. And I’ll mostly not highlight how not-suspicious it actually is.
Our product will make all jobs obsolete. That’s why we need to work our employees to death making it!
Claimed for decades that he wanted a traditional society, but he didn’t die in infancy. Ducking hypocrite.
We had that nearly a century ago.
Guess I’d be coming down with some sort of illness around August 24th if I were a Missouri worker affected by this law and its repeal.
Bribery is just argument by other means.
Clarence Thomas’s concurrence on the case they take after this one.
Shit like this and the willingness of the news media to frame it like that is the reason people describe politics as kayfabe. And why they aren’t exactly wrong to believe that.
The natural gas power plant would be producing the electricity that would go beyond the regular demand. And no, there aren’t any reactors there. There’s only about 50 nuclear plants in the country and Danville, VA didn’t get one.
Natural gas makes the plurality of electricity produced in the US, and to get there, it murdered coal, not nuclear or renewables, so bad as it is, it does represent an improvement in the American energy mix.
A welcome change from the vice signaling that’s marked the last decade since his escalator speech.
I somehow doubt this indicates any sort of improvement in him as a person.
Which probably cause a variety of cancers, but not autism. The increased rates are almost entirely the result of better diagnosis criteria.
When JFK’s nephew hears 1 in 36 kids is diagnosed, his mind jumps to someone more disabled than his Aunt Rosemary after Walter Freeman was through with her.
But almost all of the increase in diagnoses is made up of people who have a favorite train livery, want their food to have a specific texture, and get pretty upset about the itchy tag in their shirts.
