I’ve been using SSDs since ~2009 and I’ve never had one fail. You’ll be fine.
Sheriff’s are the most corrupt arm of law enforcement. This guy should be vacated from office.
Yes, handily.
"I mean, I’m here for your dooming & dissing on The Odious Ted Cruz—I’m right here for it—but in between desecrating Arlington and reviving the KKK in Ohio, how do you find the time?" Oleske asked.
Hahahahaha.
“I understand there’s over 1,000 hits on TikTok (accusing) the sheriff’s office of not being transparent, not providing information to the family and that is not true,” Brame said. “There’s been information put out there that there’s a lynching in Vance County. There is not a lynching in Vance County. The young man was not dangling from a tree. He was not swinging from a tree. The rope was wrapped around his neck. It was not a noose. There was not a knot in the rope, so therefore, it was not a lynching here in Vance County.” No, you see, we only define lynching in very narrow terms.
lynch | lin(t)SH | verb [with object] 1 (of a mob) kill (someone), especially by hanging, for an alleged offense with or without a legal trial: her father had been lynched for a crime he didn’t commit | (lynching as noun) : a city full of lynchings and riots.
Oh, you mean that definition of lynching?! No, why would you define it like that, get outta here.
I use a Waves compressor, but it's been a while and I couldn't tell you which one at the moment. Also FabFilter Pro-C2. Also Universal Audio.
I remember this. Some racist rednecks chased a Black man in their trucks and recorded it on a phone. Morons.
Johnson transferred the case to an outside prosecutor because the man who initiated the deadly chase, Greg McMichael, was her former employee. But Georgia’s attorney general says she illegally used her office to try to protect the retired investigator and his son, Travis McMichael, who fired the fatal shots.
Asshole DA trying to protect a hate crime-committing racist POS.
Johnson’s case has stalled as one of her attorneys, Brian Steel, has spent most of the past two years in an Atlanta courtroom defending Grammy-winning rapper Young Thug against racketeering and gang charges. Jury selection in the case took 10 months, prosecutors began presenting evidence last November and they are still calling witnesses.
Ten months for selecting a jury? How?! People with money need to be held to account without letting them gum up the wheels of justice for regular folks. But some guy with a bunch of money can make a process that should take days take almost a year.
Barnhill stepped aside after a few weeks, but not before he sent a letter to police captain arguing the McMichaels acted legally and Arbery was killed in self-defense.
Oh, well that sounds fine, not at all like some Ole' Boys of the South protecting murderers.
District attorneys “have a huge amount of discretion to make decisions about what cases to pursue,” Samuel said. “The notion that we’re going to start prosecuting DAs for prosecuting or not prosecuting strikes me as really being on the edge of propriety.”
You're leaving out the part where she knew one of the murderers, asshole.
Fuck you, Frank.
I have a good life and don't wish to encounter physical harm, so thanks for offering to do it for me. Too bad you won't be there if / when I encounter a nazi. It would have been great to have you fight on my behalf.
Presumably. They want to kill all Palestinians or drive them out. Either is acceptable to them.
I took up running some years back. I went from my body hurting repeatedly to being able to complete two miles without stopping in two weeks time. It's amazing how quickly the body builds up tolerance.
Meanwhile, Imran Ali — the former assistant Washington County prosecutor in Minnesota who had initially charged Potter — accused the board of canceling its training to avoid public scrutiny, fumbling an opportunity for Washington law enforcement officers to learn from Potter’s mistake. Ali came up with the idea to partner with Potter on the training, which they would have led together.
Prosecutor demonstrating to the local cops that he's on their side when they kill people to keep a good relationship to ensure cooperation on future cases.
Police arrested the enraged driver who was caught on camera stealing a tow truck with his own vehicle attached and slamming it into multiple cars — leading his pick-up to topple.
They finally busted him. Russell Laiosa. I know the NY Post is a rag, but it's the first article I found confirming an arrest.
I hadn't been to the Pirate Bay in quite some time. I occasionally pop over to look for old videos. I went today and a big popover for a dubious software upgrade came up. Then, another saying that my system is infected and offering to clean it. That's obviously fake, but it was blocking my access to the user interface so I wasn't able to complete my search. Closed it. That's unfortunate.

The music industry traded tape for hard drives and got a hard-earned lesson.
My father told me he wanted to make USB flash drives of all the scanned and digitized family photos and other assorted letters and mementos. He planned to distribute them to all family members hoping that at least one set would survive. When I explained that they ought to be recipes to new media every N number of years or risk deteriorating or becoming unreadable (like a floppy disk when you have no floppy drive), he was genuinely shocked. He lost interest in the project that he’d thought was so bullet proof.
> Climbers typically ascend only part of Mount Everest's elevation, as the mountain's full elevation is measured from the geoid, which approximates sea level. The closest sea to Mount Everest's summit is the Bay of Bengal, almost 700 km (430 mi) away. So to approximate a climb of the entire height of Mount Everest, one would need to start from this coastline, a feat accomplished by Tim Macartney-Snape's team in 1990. Climbers usually begin their ascent from base camps above 5,000 m (16,404 ft).
It’s obvious once you think about it, but at what point would you consider it in daily life?
Buildings at Johnson Space Center in Houston are among the worst at any NASA facility.

Having just submitted an article about a commercial spacewalk, I’m depressed that space is destined to be owned by corporations. This won’t get funded. Politicians will point to how much more efficient private companies do this. Eff.
"Today’s success represents a giant leap forward for the commercial space industry."

The dialog makes more sense, but the narrative flow is wrong. Interesting to see this version and ponder how much the later edit saved the scene and heightened tension.
Republican candidate has apologized for antisemitic statements and backed off from hardline positions
How you can say something like that and not be run out of politics is stunning, but that’s how far we’ve fallen. Dude also was addicted to porn booths in the 90s.

> But evangelical leaders warn that’s no guarantee their rank and file will stay involved in politics if Republicans abandon socially conservative issues, like abortion and gay marriage, even as they lean in on others, like banning transgender kids from participating in youth sports. In July, Trump nearly sparked a platform fight at the Republican National Convention over language that couched abortion as primarily in the hands of the states, a position anti-abortion advocates almost uniformly oppose.
We can only hope that he continues to piss them off and they abandon him.

Article is actually kinda thin, to be honest. But the couch-fucker gets clicks, I guess.
New Mexico sued Snapchat after using AI to reveal child safety risks.
> New Mexico is seeking an injunction to permanently block Snap from practices allegedly harming kids. That includes a halt on advertising Snapchat as "more private" or "less permanent" due to the alleged "core design problem" and "inherent danger" of Snap's disappearing messages. The state's complaint noted that the FBI has said that "Snapchat is the preferred app by criminals because its design features provide a false sense of security to the victim that their photos will disappear and not be screenshotted."
Core drilling is tricky. Getting a 6 GHz signal through concrete is now easier.
