He defrauded everyone else. Surely he won't defraud us.

• Republican voters

Back then, everything was done through a travel agent and they often got kickbacks if you took certain routes. No doubt some agents got a bonus for routing them so circuitously.

There isn't a win here. Meet with Biden? "BiDeN iS bEiNg UnReAsOnAbLe!"

Biden rebuffs? "BiDeN wOn'T eVeN nEgOtIaTe!"

The Republican party isn't about playing fair.

All we can do is hope Trump is jailed

Nothing in the Constitution bars Trump from holding the Office of the President while in a super max prison.

Absolutely nothing.

I think I used to do something similar with email spam traps. Not sure if it's still around but basically you could help build NaCL lists by posting an email address on your website somewhere that was visible in the source code but not visible to normal users, like in a div that was way on the left side of the screen.

Anyway, spammers that do regular expression searches for email addresses would email it and get their IPs added to naughty lists.

I'd love to see something similar with robots.

Wait...

I want a news alert set up whenever porn stars get boned by rather large phalluses belonging to those with darker complexions.

If I want that, what search terms should I use?

The sad thing is that his right to use the bathroom is protected.

However, there is absolutely nothing saying we can't accuse him of being a transwoman and denying him the bathroom.

I had a black republican candidate so a zoom town hall at my work, talking about how terrible it is that the liberals are tearing down Confederate statues.

How it was their heritage being torn down.

A number of people jumped on Blind and just face palmed after that.

I remember one interview I had with a candidate. It was for a database analyst position that required SQL.

The first round was typically a phone screen where I chat with the candidate, get to know them a bit.

Second round was code review. I asked them to do a SQL query that did x.

The queries were simple. The goal was to get the candidate to walk through the query.

I had one candid that, over screen share, wrote the query flawlessly. Then I asked them to explain what it was doing. The candidate froze.

I can get understand getting nervous so I moved onto an insert statement. I had them write one and then do another without using certain terms (often leading to a sub query).

Again, flawless. I asked what situations would you use one over the other.

Again, they froze. I started to get suspicious that they were cheating and had them, instead of typing the answer, say the answer. When they couldn't, I knew enough that it wasn't going to work.

It was but my understanding is that the patent on RDP lapsed. It's why Oracle VirtualBox uses RDP as their virtual desktop protocol.

Typst says discord is for chatting with the community. But the project has issues and discussions enabled.

I'm okay with "hey hang out with us on discord".

I'm not okay with "Need support? Only discord."

Every time this kind of post comes up, I always ask what software is only supporting discord. The response has consistently been some niche software where it's only a handful of users. The other kind is devs trying to evade Nintendo lawyers because apparently that's a thing.

So...if you're going to post this meme, name and shame. Discord only support is bad. But I have never run into this in the wild.

If I remember my hermeneutics, the canon is that essentially, God had "blessed" early descendants of Adam and Eve, allowing their children to thrive.

It wasn't until after the flood I believe that incest becomes more of a theme in the Bible, implying that they shouldn't have children.

But it's been years since I gave this any serious study so I may be remembering incorrectly.

No, it was a few years back when a researcher found that there was a plain text file of county employee social security numbers just sitting inside the JavaScript of a government website.

There are too many Google results from the upcoming election for me to sort through but suffice it to say, the guy was a class A idiot.

It reminds me of a lawmaker in one of the flyover states that wanted to make it illegal to look at the source code of a website.

Think about this for a second.

And realize that this twat is writing laws.

I use GitHub private repos for my home configuration stuff. So it's not open source since I'm the only one using it and I don't want someone else to know how to attack my network.

For certain configurations, self hosting doesn't make sense. For people like me, who would rather spend his time doing the stuff I care about instead of maintaining the stuff I don't care about, I'm okay giving Microsoft some "control" over my code for the convenience.

That said, I am thinking about moving my FOSS code off of GitHub since that is an option. I'd have to see their CI/CD pipelines though.

But you see, the death panels are corporate boards, not government officials. That makes it better.

The only thing I hate about charcoal grilling is cleaning it. With gas, you just put the damn thing in high and burn everything off. With charcoal....so much scrubbing.

I think what the author meant was that it's impossible in the capitalist marketplace.

Joe Rogan is probably a good anti-example. His podcast (as I understand it anyway) is only available on Spotify. But Conan O'Brien, the Office Ladies, and even The West Wing Weekly (which hasn't been producing in years) is still available, for free, on any podcast platform.

But let's be honest here. Republicans are doing a speed run to impeach Biden so they can do the whole "SeE?! He WaS iMpEaChEd ToO!"

While it's simple for us normal people to understand that one crime doesn't pale in comparison to the other "crime", for the alt right, they aren't going for fair. They are going for power by any means necessary.
