Aside from “We did something that we were told not to do”, what is something like this supposed to accomplish?

I can’t legally condone them, but I understand the Tesla dealership fires and assassinations/attempts. But I don’t understand what a campout is supposed to accomplish.

Its not insurmountably difficult to replace screens on most phones.

I don’t know, but keep asking this question. These businesses are a scourge.

Zero-day exploits are security holes that exist and are used by bad actors, but aren’t yet known to you, or anyone capable of closing the hole. The clock to patch the hole doesn’t start running until the exploit is known: it stands at zero days until the good guys know it exists.

What zero-day exploits exist for ssh?

By definition, you don’t know. So, you block root login, and hope the bad actor doesn’t also know a zero-day for sudo.

I’m guessing they intended to send this notice to one of this lawyer’s clients, rather than the lawyer themself?

In 1912, “Servia” was the accepted English spelling. British journalists started using “Serbia” around 1914.

IMO, email isn’t for answering questions. Email is for documenting that the conversation occurred.

If they won’t answer the questions in email, ask them in a phone call, then send a “Per our conversation” email summarizing the answers they provided. Until they send a rebuttal, I am free to act as though my email was their answer.

Take your upvote and choke on it, prick.

Irrelevant to the issue at hand: Even private sales are prohibited between residents of different states unless the sale is conducted through an FFL dealer in the buyer’s/recipient’s state.

But to answer your question: Very few states restrict private sales beyond federal requirements.

The only viable means of being able to reliably prosecute private sales to prohibited persons is to make NICS checks available, freely and anonymously, to the general public. With such checks readily and freely available, sellers cannot reasonably argue that they “didn’t know” someone was a prohibited buyer. With those checks available, “I didn’t know” is no longer exculpatory evidence. With those checks available, you can reasonably know their status; you should know their status; your failure to check is evidence of criminal negligence.

But every time “Public Access to NICS” has been proposed in the past 20+ years, Democratic leadership stops it, because it conflicts with their “no guns for anyone” ideology.

FFL dealers can only sell to residents of states in which they are licensed to operate. It is unlawful for a resident of one state to sell to a resident of another state, without involving an FFL dealer licensed in the receiver’s state.

My favorite phone was the Galaxy S Relay, which featured a sliding, 5-row thumbboard. Numbers, letters, period, comma, and question mark were all available without alt or fn keys. The number row had !@$#%^&*() with the shift key, just like actual keyboards.

It even had four arrow keys for cursor navigation!

I absolutely loved that phone.

Rubbing alcohol is about the only solvent I know of that is unlikely to fog the sensor. Might take a little while swabbing it with a q-tip.

The more wealth inequality grows the less important 99% of the population is as consumers and the more important the 1% becomes.

Not as consumers, no. The 1% doesn’t consume more than the 90th percentile. They just park a higher percentage of their wealth in wealth-generating financial assets, which leech wealth from the rest of society.

We need a tax on all registered securities, (with exemption for the first $10 million owned by a natural person.) That tax should be paid not in cash, but in shares of the security: the IRS should slowly liquidate those shares over time, such that IRS sales never constitute more than 1% of total traded volume.

We further need the punitively-high top-tier tax rate we had for most of the 20th century. That tax rate pushed businesses to spend their excess income, turning it into other people’s paychecks. It discouraged the kind of wealth-hoarding investment that is stunting consumer spending.

Special characters suck in on-screen keyboards, and the bastards rarely gave us physical thumboards.

Real printers used real paper…

I would say that the software side all qualifies. You’re setting up the full software stack; that’s definitely self-“something”.

I, personally, would only consider it “self hosting” if I can take a sledge hammer to the bare metal without getting arrested.

But, I acknowledge that is an arbitrary, puritanical distinction. I don’t look down on VPS; they have specific pros and cons, and I use them myself. I just think that “self hosting” includes hardware factors, not just the software.

Parent comment is on mander.xyz. You are on dbzer0.com. The admins for either instance can prevent your account from interacting with the other.

If you start lemmy.ddash.com, the other admin can still block you, but you are the admin of your own instance. You are the second admin.

The reverse, probably: You should probably increase your contribution.

Consider the state of the market “now”. Consider the state of the market “later”, meaning some hypothetical time between now and your eventual retirement.

If the market is low “now”, and you think it will be high “later”, you should be buying now.

That’s the whole debate though. What is your responsibility as a citizen?

The only responsibilities on the individual that are prescribed by the constitution arise under the Sixth Amendment, and Article I, Section 8 parts 15 and 16: the Militia clauses.

You have no other constitutional responsibilities as a citizen.

A legislated law obligating you to apply legislated law in judging the accused would violate the accused’s 6th amendment right to a trial by a jury of his peers. Such a law would make you an agent of the government, not a layperson juror. The legislature can compel you to report for jury service; the legislature cannot impose any sort of responsibility to render a particular verdict.

You have no (relevant) legislative-law responsibilities as a citizen.

I’m so weary of talking about it ad-nauseam.

You have yet to talk about the most important part of the constitution. The first three words. You’ve completely ignored them all this time. Either you don’t understand them, or you think they are irrelevant. They are the sine qua non of this issue. Ultimately, those three words rebut every single point against nullification you have made, every ad-nauseating time you have made them.

Ultimately these questions about jury nullification are irrelevant because you’ll never have 12 jurors who think subverting the court process can achieve justice.

Injustice requires a unanimous verdict. The accused doesn’t need 12 for the trial to reach a just end. He only needs one. A hung jury is always a just jury.

Are you sure you’re not Joe Biden?
