I’m baitin’

“Swashbuckling” immediately made me think of the scene where

: : : spoiler Title Duncan free climbs the wall as the procession approaches : : :

My man eating

Lol

That’s not a problem with having ethics rules though. That’s a problem with enforcement

How is implementing ethics rules and enforcement bad? How can it come back to “bite” them?

Pour one out for a real one. She’s bangin’ angels now.

Do you get off on having the absolute worst takes on every single thread, or are you legitimately that stupid?

Are the caravans in the room with us right now?

Absurd. The court going along with it is even worse in this case

Absolutely. “Oh we can’t enforce federal healthcare mandates? OK, well, we sure as fuck can choose and enforce who gets federal tax exemption status, so get fucked”

He means Lethal Weapon 7, right? We already have 5 and 6

It’s a wonderful production. There are tons of little details and ways the characters and actors and souls connect through time that make it enjoyable on rewatch as well. And that score… spectacular. If you liked the movie and like reading, you may enjoy the author’s follow up book The Bone Clocks too. It’s less high-minded than Cloud Atlas, but carries a lot of the similar writing tone, style, and charm

Change your shit asap. Anyone who has access to it can theoretically auth as you on any site or product that uses that 2fa setup. They would still need to have your underlying credentials that would initiate the 2fa protocol exchange anyway, but if they have access to your underlying 2fa secret, its not too far fetched to believe they may have other credentials potentially, depending on how you’ve secured the access and where you store your credentials. To be safe and not paranoid, it’s best to just do a root trust rotation and cycle the underlying auth creds

Have his tangible assets (buildings, cash…etc) confiscated since they’re all, for the most part, tied to numerous fraudulent misrepresentations and crimes, and fucking jail him and throw away the key like they would for any other non-wealthy or politically connected fellon. We’ve all seen him commit crimes on TV, brag about them publicly, admit to them multiple times, his co-conspirators have been sentenced and gone to jail in cases where he’s named as a party, and yet we’re still doing “more investigations” and lining up cases so they’re “just right.” This level of genuflection and weasel wording wouldn’t even be fathomable for a normal person. “Oh but he has money to fight” - yeah that’s the fucking problem. 99% of the shit I’ve seen him and his attorneys throw at the courts just to gum up the works would get any other attorney and/or defendant laughed out of the court room. Start heavily sanctioning his attorneys for making a mockery of the court, start dismissing his bullshit staling with extreme prejudice…etc. We have the solution - we use it every single day against hundreds of thousands of normal people caught up in the system. Yet this one single turd is somehow above it and continues to get the kid glove treatment.

Baring all that…maybe invest the investigation money in a 10 year supply of hamberders and diet cokes and send it to him so he hopefully fucking croaks before the election.

Yeah but is any of that going to stop him from potentially becoming President again? From committing more crimes? End up with him in actual jail or facing any real, non-monetary slap-on-wrist punishment?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating doing nothing. My argument is that this course of action ain’t it bc it doesn’t address the root of the problem: the open secret that wealth and privilege operates in an entirely different criminal and justice system, and the dog and pony show they’re putting on here will only affect the small fall guys while the orange asshole continues to skate away unscathed

What are they going to do about it? Whine that “he can’t do that!” Toothless and pointless as always

Ignoring cost/complexity/drift questions, you should always have your dev environments reflect prod as close as possible, however you set that up

Disagree. Even if this goes through, it reads more like a liability waiver: it’s power is more in the chilling effect vs. actual teeth in enforcement

1. It’s not illegal. 2. “Law” isn’t a real thing in an oligarchy, except insofar as it can be used by those with capital and resources to oppress and subjugate those they consider their lessors and to further perpetuate the system for self gain
