Stupid people are often overconfident and lack self awareness. I don't care what he thinks, because he's a moron who got lucky.

Not true, they'll monetize fake solutions too!

Vanced seems to be working in incognito mode. Can you give us an example url?

Man, I hope they gave him access to a fake test server and told him it was real.

Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman as vice.

An indightment just means that there is probable cause to charge the person, it's not a descision on whether they are guilty or not. The process is done in secret, so there is no defence for the person being charged. It's just a way to issue an arrest warrant. They do it that way in order to prevent people from asking for a "show cause" hearing which would allow them to personally defend against the whole thing. D It's a dirty trick.

They were charged with a class 4 criminal felony by the county prosecuter, Julia Reitz. Being arrested and released isn't a punishment. Illinois has cashless bond. They weren't arrested at the protest, they were indighted by a grand jury. A conviction means that you are facing a 1-3 year prison sentence and you'll never be able to vote, own guns, or get many types of jobs and nobody will hire you anyway. They're trying to fuck up this girls whole life because she said Isreal is bad.

The states attourney filed the charges. She is also an adjunct law professor at the U of I as is Rabbi Dovid Tiechtel of Illini Chabad who claimed in the article below that he was heavily involved with descions being made during the protests. He has "Isreal" listed as a hobby on the Chibad website. I wouldn't be surprised if he applied political pressure on behalf of Isreal. https://www.wcia.com/news/breaking-news/pro-palestinian-protestors-rally-again-at-uiuc/

The U of I chanselor announced his resignation back in November.

targeting Jewish Australians.

There it is. I'll bet criticizing Isreal is considered anti-semetic too. Meanwhile Aboriginals still don't have rights.

I just bought a domain name yesterday with plans to create an instance for my local county. My killer idea is to have a comminity in the instsnce called "the good old days" where older folks can post their stories. I noticed that is a popular thing on facebook. The instance will not be federated as I don't want anything but content which is relavent to the county. It should be somewhat self regulating given the topic limitations. I probably won't even mention federation unless someone else wants to make an instance specific to a certain town or something. Just a way to filter out all the noise on facebook where people can see all tge different news outlets and events from accross the county without being filtered by fb et al.

Good luck even hearing about it with all forms of social media being controlled by the administration and that's where most people get their news. You'll just hear "oh yeah, theres a bug going around" I'm prettu sure that Tiburculoses is a lot worse than we think.

 

Mastadon? Lemmy? It would probably have to be standalone so people would't be turned off from the content from the rest of the fediverse unless there's a way to prevent federated content from showing on the instance. Just a place to post local news and discussions, maybe a place to sell secondhand. I live near a huge college with a major cs program, so I should be able to get users.

 

Only getting video output from the motherboard. It did this with Budgie on top of stock Ubuntu and with the Budgie "flavor" freshly installed.

I have an Intel A310 in an HP prebuilt, so that's probobly the issue.

 

If you think a game should be higher or lower in ranking, then upvote or downvote it. If you don't see a game on the list that you think should be on the list then create a top level reply with the name and system.

 

If you built a snowman during the day the snow only needs to be below freezing. It can get colder that night or the next day by quite a bit. The exterior of the snowman would be colder than the inside even though they're both frozen.

 

We recently purchased a new (to us) family car and I've been addressing some of the neglected maintenance items. The low beam headlights were extremely dim, yet the high beams were very bright. Incandescent bulbs become dimmer over time. I purchased some which were recommended by the forum for my specific vehicle for only $15 on the rain forest site. They are quite a bit brighter now and I feel much safer driving at night.
