Well, that's one way to get circumcised.

What's crazy is that this seems to showTrumps ICE has been undermining trust in federal officers.

There is a big difference between "Is it acceptable to help an illegal immigrant avoid Ice" and "Is it acceptable to help a legal immigrant stay in the country". However these concepts are getting blurred together as ICE continues to go after immigrants who are following proper procedures to stay in the country.

Even if you don't believe the idea of illegal vs legal matters, Americans have historically been torn over this issue. This poll seems to indicate though, that as ICE goes after "effectively legal" immigrants it appears to be turning the population more "pro-immigrant".

I don't think anyone was expecting zero casualties, I think that's the main reason why an overwhelming majority of Americans didn't want to attack Iran.

I feel like on part no one ever mentions on things like this are, how do you enforce any jurisdiction on a satellite and what it's doing.

The main crazy thing about a satellite data enter is you can't confiscate it and therefore you can't control it. Hell once it's up there the only thing any government might be able to do is find the owner and force them to crash it (if possible).

It in a sense sounds a bit like the wild west of the original internet. Admittedly Musk being at the forefront of it all sounds terrible, but I think there is something fascinating about an information hub that could be completely independent of any country.

Republicans repeatedly blocked Bidens attempts to forgive student loans. It has been clear for a long time that Republicans do not support access to education at any level given their attempts to attack DoE, promote charter schools, attack libraries, and pretty much any pro-education stance.

I can't wait for another poll to shockingly show he's slid to his lowest approval of 39% - again.

I swear for the past half year I've heard every news agency post an article every other week about his support "slipping to 39%"

You can track/identify people in range of a wifi router based on how the wifi signal is disrupted.

I believe that the original people claimed you could ID individual people using their approach, but I suspect that's under ideal conditions and/or with some training against individual people.

??

It either means he legitimately didn't know anything or that he doesn't think there is any evidence to support he did know/did anything. I'm pretty sure if they had anything concrete on him, the Trump admin would have gone after him, simply to divert away from everything theyre doing.

The issue with doing this under oath is that if any evidence comes out to the contrary it's an easy conviction. Not that he hasn't weasled around lying under oath before, but it is higher stakes than just making a public statement.

So I looked it up and as I thought, the core basis of sorting for reddit is based on a weighting algorithm looking at thumbs/comments. People suspect that other information, like locality are used to (hence you typically get posts in your language), but there is supposedly limited user based info used in the ranking of posts (people generally see the same content on r/all)

What I was hypothesising is that reddit wants to get rid of r/all so they can create a more tiktok/Instagram like feed based on individual user behavior. Both to make the app more addicting and/or have greater control/influence on what you do/don't see.
