Guiding drones to a target is the killer app for VR headsets

Losing is what scares him.

Democrats respond to public pressure. Create enough, and they will do the right thing.

It's not just Harvard though, even if they're taking the lead and getting the headlines

If the Trump/Musk administration actually folded, they'd:

• Restore all funding
• Continue with additional grants for research on the basis of merit, per historical practice
• Stop trying to deport students, staff, and faculty

I don't see any of those happening yet; just trying to pass blame to lower-ranking officials.

"Nobody" is a very strong word, and simply false

In any case, it's not the DNC that's the barrier here; it's who is actually elected to office

It's on us to push to make it happen

Not that I am aware of

For those not aware: all commercially available color printers leave a pattern of almost-microscopic yellow dots which contain the printer serial number. This makes it possible for law enforcement to trace the origin of any document produced with such a printer.

If you're going to produce untraceable color artwork at scale, you need to use silk screening, or a similar DIY printmaking technique.

I'm hearing that he has been released as a result of the public anger

Or...the judge is a racist.

Thr judge could have ordered him released and pushed the burden of an appeal onto the state. Definitely the right thing to do when an innocent man is imprisoned.

No.

A big chunk of the US population wants dictatorship

He got zapped with a taser, so much worse than just his ears. Those things kill a modest fraction of the people who are electrocuted with them

They're not being shipped to El Salvador with no recourse to the US courts though, which is what's starting to happen.

US policing is already brutal, but is in theory somewhat constrained by the legal system. What's going on is tossing out those few, imperfect constraints

Yes, because so far it's limited in scale and targeted at non-citizens. Republicans are aiming to change that, but have not yet

Cornell had the attack on them happen at the same time as Harvard. They're filing a lawsuit and did a similar website redesign as Harvard in the past few days. This implies a coordinated response

No. They're quite explicit about the plan being to strip US citizens of their citizenship and send them to El Salvador
