He’s the richest man in the world. He’s got private security likely on par with secret service I’d imagine.

Depends on the game. Apex, Riot, ubisoft, and EA all ban vm players. A list of other companies do as well.

Easy way to get yourself banned in online games just an FYI. Most online games will detect and ban virtual machines now since they’ve become commonplace in cheat/hack communities.

Yes.

Also, anything that isn’t ranked choice voting that allows people to specify an order of preference at time of vote is not good politics and is not going to, and shouldn’t, sit well with progressives. Tit-for-tat is additionally an issue that many voters and progressives consider objectionable (source: exit polls). You can call it basic politics if you want, but if you’re progressive you’ll need to accept that it’s going to continuously cause us to lose elections and bleed voter support. People are clearly tired of establishment politics. Trump has proven that twice. Running as an anti-establishment candidate both times and winning, both times.

That is simply not true. Stop spreading misinformation. In addition I did not claim they made the decision for each candidate. What they did was run a first-past-the-post cacus that allowed candidates with conflicting interests to allocate their political weight against a clearly popular candidate. If they’d done ranked choice voting from the start, it would not be an issue, instead they allowed candidates (like Bloomberg) to spend millions, gather significant support, and then cast that support to a vastly unpopular candidate. You’re literally trying to argue Hillary was a good candidate with the best chance of winning but both polls, exit polls, and the caucus itself showed that not to be the case. Without the collaborative actions against Bernie by the other candidates allowed by the DNC Hillary would’ve never headlined the 2016 ticket.

Then you don’t understand US politics.

This is a blatant misrepresentation of the 2016 DNC cacus run. Absolutely ignorant.

Did they change the vote totals?:

Yes. Every running candidate next to Bernie pulled out, dedicating their votes to Clinton instead. It was blatant and out in the open. Hell, Bloomberg even “entered” the race late in caucusing and pulled out shortly after an insane ad spend dedicating his votes to Clinton as well. That’s “putting their 👍 on the scale”.

That would be every running primary candidate shifting their votes towards Hillary instead of distributing them evenly. In addition there was the Bloomberg run “out of nowhere” when Bernie was looking to be the headline candidate.

No, not at all, I just don’t expect the level of reliability they provide with how complex the stack is, and that is a complicated stack. (For a literal light bulb).

I feel this is mostly true, and I say that because people champion Biden as pro LGBT yet I, as a member of LGBT, specifically remember a younger Biden on the news saying gay marriage was settled law and nobody should be worried about or believe in it; That marriage was between a man and a woman and that’s how the US population wanted it. It didn’t make me feel great back then.

That being said… I still don’t like what Trump says out loud, and I hope our country makes it through another 4 years of it…

Reddit is dead to me, and given their stance on their apis, should be dead to pretty much all hobbiests deeply interested in self hosting.

There’s a difference between Matter (the interoperability standard) and Thread (The preferred matter communication protocol) and you’ll see a lot of devices advertised as “Matter over thread” which is important because for those you’ll need a matter bridge device to act as an edge router for the mesh “thread” network the devices create. These can be had cheaply though and if you’re one of the like 1 in 3 Americans with an iPad you already own one.

Hue do be having that “it just works” track record. Which is absolutely divine magic in my opinion because if you took one small look at their back end infrastructure stack you’d never imagine it could be… Reliable… Somehow? Like… Look at this…

I for one, will likely never purchase another intel cpu. ☠️ my 13900k going up in smoke and the 6+ months of blaming/lack of communication from Intel customer support left me with a very sour taste.

Might be worth tracking down one of the researchers submitting to the clamav software repos and forwarding them a copy of the flagged zip. If they don’t dig in and find malware, they could at least improve the detection algo

Dude, you need to see how nasty the justice system in the US really is. They’re not your protectors and they’re literally not required by law to be so. Supreme Court decided that decades ago.

It would be fair, but misinformation probably isn’t best fought with misinformation. At least not if we want to keep our democracy when the challenge comes.

Say what you will, but this election wasn’t stolen. It was lost. Shamefully so, but it’s to be expected when you run a vastly unpopular candidate on the curtails of “more of the same” during an economic downturn (caused by social elite); democrats fell far out of touch and it was pretty clear to see, so much so that near 20 million people who’d voted against Trump hot off his fiasco of a presidency decided they just didn’t care enough to show up.

Trump sounds insane to you (and me) because you have differing opinions and his opinions are inhumane and immoral, but he was somehow still far more coherent than Biden during that debate. Dementia clearly hit him hard and that immediately disinfranchised a significant portion of voters. Dude tried to hold on for far too long and it might cost the USA it’s democracy.
