Because legal discovery data retrieval is almost entirely automated. You are always going to end up with some irrelevant shit in there because it matched a keyword search somebody used for discovery.

Source: I used to do this when companies I worked for got subpoenas for email data.

He tacitly supports Nazis? That’s all I can think of when I see anyone feeding that beast anymore.

This is not true. There are several tools to create a bootable USB that uses a local account.

They just made it hard for Joe Schmoe to avoid it.

Here’s the thing though. When THEY need it, it’s ok. They’ll just pop over to the next state and nobody back home will ever know. They have absolutely no problem being hypocrites in any aspect of their lives.

We do not. We can’t even move solar energy from earth orbit down to earth at any scale that would be economically viable or really even useful.

We lack the material science to build something that large but still light enough to be physically stable AND somehow collect and transmit energy.

We also lack the technology to stop it from being destroyed by space debris even if we could somehow build it.

If you figure that out give NASA a call, they’d be real interested.

I seem to remember reading that what Trinity did in the opening scenes of The Matrix before the police busted in was actually doing a real exploit. So it got done properly at least once!

Error - already is trash.

I mean, I have literally overheard a cruise ship ‘tourist’ disembarked in Cozumel, Mexico, loudly complaining about the lack of English speaking staff in the surrounding restaurants and stores.

The hilarious part is, just about every Mexican working in that part of the island speaks great English, since tens of thousands of cruise ship morons get offloaded in that same spot 6 days a week.

I’ve traveled all over this planet. If you’re having actual, real problems communicating with locals, it’s probably because you’re an asshole.

It’s really important for kids to see themselves reflected somewhere in the world. This is nice.

So, when humans are involved they are inherently bad due to the reality of human nature. Got it.

Your doctor can do a blood test and tell you if you should get a booster. I got a booster at age 50 because that test showed my antibody level for measles had fallen below their acceptable minimum.

Most people are perfectly fine with the way things are.

I don’t think that’s true, but I’m constantly disappointed in humanity and overestimating people’s will to make things better, so who knows.

God damn I hate this bullshit argument.

People are looking for leadership in a time of crisis. Saying “well why don’t YOU do it instead of complaining” is just mind numbingly oblivious to how societal change actually works.

You build the movement, then you act. If you act too soon you’re just another revolutionary lined up against the wall and shot. Leadership is required to succeed and very few are capable of that level of leadership.

Edit: It basically comes across as an argument for the status quo which is disgusting to any rational, empathetic human being.

That’s how the world works and always has to varying degrees. It’s just more obvious at the moment than it usually is.

Btw, “they get to rape kids and I just wanna go to the whorehouse” isn’t the BEST argument, but I guess you’re sorta aiming in the right direction.

I really don’t know, but I’ve read several books by psychiatrists, psychologists, and therapists where they shared client stories, without PII. I would think it’s ok to share generic stories as long as the client can’t be identified, only because I doubt from some of the stories I’ve read that all those clients consented to having their stories told, but who knows. Hopefully somebody with expertise can chime in!

All them burgers and he’s still mad.

Very true and I speak from experience. Still worth it to try, if you need help. I did eventually find one that helped me a lot.

You get locked up and deported for that these days. Zero tolerance policies are a blight on society.
