One isn’t a corrupt dictator killing or imprisoning anyone who complains about him. If you think the little guy isn’t getting hurt in China I want the drugs you’re on.

2·21 days agoI personally enjoy watching the tourists freeze in t-shirts and shorts in SF in the summer. Granted inland Northern California is way too hot.
Oh God this is the first time they’ve had to deal with wet weather isn’t it? Hopefully the brakes work.
2·1 month agoAnd you can’t tell when something is active/focused or not because every goddamn app and web site wants to use its own “design language”.
The FireTV os is worse. The active focus indicator is different between pages of the OS ignoring apps. Oh and it changes constantly.

I’m a little concerned killing the main breaker might result in a sudden temperature change that might fracture the gas line. Of course if you turn the gas off you might get fried.
I’m now wondering if they have confused loitering (an ill defined concept, particularly to kill over) with looting
Ah today’s bothsidesism

Lol. I thought the Falkland Islands looked a lot like Madagascar I just somehow never looked at the rest of the map.
if you are looking for a HURD based stable OS you are a bit out of luck.
I feel like I saw this hallway on McMansion Hell

Not sure how much worse you could make it.
The feds are actually disturbingly fair about this. You can deduct your legal fees as a business expense.
wikipedia excerpt
While embezzlers, thieves, and the like are forced to report their illegally acquired income for tax purposes, they may also take deductions for costs relating to criminal activity. For example, in Commissioner v. Tellier, a taxpayer was found guilty of engaging in business activities that violated the Securities Act of 1933.[8] The taxpayer subsequently deducted the legal fees he spent while defending himself.[8] The U.S. Supreme Court held that the taxpayer was allowed to deduct the legal fees from his gross income because they meet the requirements of §162(a),[9] which allows the taxpayer to deduct all the “ordinary and necessary expenses paid or incurred during the taxable year in carrying on a trade or business.”[10] The Court reasoned (and the Internal Revenue Service did not contest the point) that it was ordinary and necessary for a person engaged in a business to expect to have legal fees associated with that business, even though such things may only happen once in a lifetime.[9] Therefore, the taxpayer in Tellier was allowed to deduct his legal fees from his gross income, even though he incurred the fees because of his crime. The U.S. Supreme Court in Tellier reiterated that the purpose of the tax code was to tax net income, not punish unlawful behavior.[11] The Court suggested that if this was not the case, Congress would change the tax code to include special tax rules for illegal conduct
