Haha, I mean, we're definitely arguing over semantics but you're saying something equivalent to, "No, don't eat ice cream. Put some in your mouth and then swallow it, but don't eat. We never eat."

Haha. Would you please also tell the Republican party that you'd appreciate it if they could find prettier ways of destroying our government and constitution.

Think whatever you like but jury nullification is when a juror votes "not guilty" when they actually think someone is guilty of a law that they disagree with.

What you're describing has a name, and that name is nullification.

Are you mentioning this because of gun ownership in the U.S.? Not many people carry guns every day. Even if they do, they’re not likely to draw their five-shot .38 special against a group of ICE agents in body armor.

Its terrifying that rather than having to admit that they were wrong, people will usually double down on their positions.

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back." - Carl Sagan

In order for them to understand who the "right" people are, they'd need to be able to see the bigger picture. If they could see the bigger picture, they'd realize that they have better options than murder.

I personally believe that a woman could make a great president. I also believe that America is much more sexist and racist than many of us would like to admit.

Some pickle brine seems like it would be particularly effective in creating a lovely rust patina.

Now you and the other Jr high kids can communicate your super secret plans

Do you have a home traction/decompression setup?

He and his wealthy friends could be potentially stealing billions from our retirement funds.

It's just about to pass the event horizon of your black hole. I hope you don't blast me with some Hawking radiation.

The problem is that most people who have casual conversations about quantum physics are just jerking each other off. They're trying to impress each other by being able to describe ideas that other people came up with.

It's kind of like when a parent thinks that their kid is a genius for being able to use an ipad. The talented people were the UI designers of the iPad, not the kid.

The time machine guy is at least trying to be funny.

My brother in law was still using windows 7 and it had never occurred to him that this might be a security risk. Normal people don't care.

I'm sure this will draw some criticism but I've found duck.ai to be extremely helpful in troubleshooting minor issues with my Linux mint installation and recently with accessing and understanding SMART hard drive diagnostic data. It's very helpful in figuring out which commands could be useful in the terminal and in understanding exactly what each terminal command is doing. Of course finding answers in forums and manuals is still relevant and important but as a beginner, this has been a fast and easy way to get advice.

What a visionary. This guy fucks, am I rite?

Cool form factor, if it can run Linux.

Seems like my package has been delayed in transit!

Yeah but supplements are fun and sometimes delicious. Running is neither.
