Fucking yikes

It’s “British establishment left”. So slight left unless we’re talking about transgender people, then they align fully with Fox News.

No, not in any real sense. Not since the Clinton administration.

It’s British “liberal”, meaning free market economic right in the British frame of reference.

I readily accept that fact that to a modern day American audience, this is just your average Democrat.

New York Times?

I’m not being facetious here. They have made a big rightward lurch, and are basically sitting where the WSJ used to sit.

UK try to go a day without banning something challenge: impossible

I don’t disagree with you. It needs to be done. But it’s still a bloody shame.

You are at war.

But, to continue the metaphor, this is like blowing up your own bridges so they can’t be used by the advancing enemy. Sometimes it’s necessary, but it’s not something you should celebrate. You are sacrificing important strategic instruments of prosperity for temporary tactical advantage.

It doesn’t, but the idea is that overtly partisan districting in blue states can compensate the overtly partisan districts in red states and keep the house as a whole in balance.

The obvious problem is that this solution disenfranchises not just the minority voters in red and blue states, but also the majority voters. Non competitive elections are the death of democracy, and benefit only donors, machine politicians and corruption.

This is exactly what SCOTUS wanted. Now they are getting it.

Their adoptable router selection is basically fuck all, so who gives a shit.

Xellennial here. Please overlook us. Being “the middle child of history” (remember that quote?) does us just fine.

Nothing to see here. Go bother gen Z.

Jesus fucking Christ on a bicycle.

The terfs will not be missed.

“Domestic violence reporting at an all time high”

A lot of people with janky GET APIs are gonna be really confused about this.

I’m ok with it. Stop using get requests to do stuff.

Yes, but this suit about a different matter (access to source code) which is a user right in the license. It’s the whole point of the GPL. In this suit the users (ie. The buyers of the devices that have received the binary distribution) obviously have standing.

The problem with relicensing is that the “authors” of a creative work (remember, this is copyright law) are changing the terms of the distribution, and the authors are allowed to do that. The issue at hand is whether the person doing the changing of the terms is allowed to make this change on behalf of “the authors”.

The users may be impacted by this decision, but they are not a part of the decision making process. Hence, no standing.

What you need in a relicensing is someone that asserts (co-) authorship of the work. That’s a much taller order.

That’s true, but only contributors have standing to do something about it. Unless there are contributors with contributions that are not easily patched out that are willing to make a case out of it, we’re stuck with the last GPL version.

Emperor Hadrian would take the whole court with him as he undertook his frequent travels, essentially a traveling imperial capital. The senators sat in Rome, essentially powerless, and steamed in anger.

You can commit money to a payment channel with a third party to create a private ledger so the third party can perform payments in your name to someone in using their shared channel on their private ledger.

Motherfucker, that’s just a bank and two bank accounts with extra steps.
