Fully expecting to lose my career as a pricing analyst before having a chance to retire. Not sure what to do when it happens. Life of crime perhaps?

Man I thought for sure it was going to be a guy making allegations against Kanye

I leak memory all the time

Confusing headline, but good news.

Legal experts think she is trying to help Trump. Imma go with their opinions on this one.

She is also stupid though.

That would be a decent protest. Have all the frustrated D voters wear a clothespin on their nose when they go to vote for the lesser evil.

Could actually get more people off the couch. Frustrated progressive voters would want to increase the ratio of "nose plug voters" to more effectively send their message to Biden while also helping kick out the Republicans.

According to Trump's lawyers, Biden could use Seal Team Six to ... create some vacancies.

Clearly never going to happen, but it's too silly of an actual legal argument to ignore.

Not exactly what we're talking about, but remember how your legs would feel after roller skating for a couple hours?

You'd have sea legs for a while afterwards where walking feels a bit like skating.

I got that dog in me

I wonder if hackers could find and distribute porn consumption details for the politicians pushing shit like this?

Guess that's what a good lawyer will buy you.

She's been careful to avoid making rulings because bad rulings can get her kicked off the case. Wherever possible, she reschedules, indefinitely postpones, or otherwise delays the trial because judges have a TON of say in how they schedule things.

She made a couple bad rulings early on and got reversed and admonished by a panel of judges. That's two strikes.

She made another bad ruling about allowing redacted information in the defense's filings to be seen by the public. Smith started the process of going to the other judges again, but she reversed her own bad ruling that time before it escalated to the other judges.

Now in this request she's made another bad ruling. This may well be strike 3. Smith will certainly appeal to have the changes implemented. Whether he also brings up the other two incidents and asks for her to be removed is yet to be seen.

The thing is, you only get 1 chance to have the judge removed. And if it doesn't work, you're stuck with an even more hostile judge for the rest of the trial. Smith has to balance the need to have the trial before the election (already too late) against having enough justification for the extreme action of having a federal judge removed from a case against their will.

Why did you have to do me like that with the 80s pro tip?

I was originally responding to the comment about looking for surround sound options and was not trying to defend the sounds. Obviously, the info on the box is usually the best way to tell.

But as we discuss it, some use cases for the sound come to mind.

If the media is just a file on a hard drive or if the original packaging is lost or damaged, I might appreciate having the sound to indicate what settings to use on the receiver.

And honestly beyond all that... Who cares if somebody does like having the sound play every time? We all do weird shit.

It's dubya!!

Nobody is advocating for the sound to play at startup. The comment that started this conversation specifically uses the word "looking". We're just saying people do pay attention to what kind of surround sound something has.

Ah. The Mr. Burns approach to longevity. We certainly seem to be committed.

COVID taught me they want to believe the lies they tell themselves. Hard to reason with that.
