This was shown before the sentencing. The judge referenced it explicitly in their sentencing as a reason to apply leniency.

From a comment above:

Here’s what the judge had to say:

“I loved that AI, and thank you for that. As angry as you are, and as justifiably angry as the family is, I heard the forgiveness, and I know Mr. Horcasitas could appreciate it, but so did I,” Lang said immediately before sentencing Horcasitas. “I love the beauty in what Christopher, and I call him Christopher—I always call people by their last names, it’s a formality of the court—but I feel like calling him Christopher as we’ve gotten to know him today. I feel that that was genuine, because obviously the forgiveness of Mr. Horcasitas reflects the character I heard about today. But it also says something about the family, because you told me how angry you were, and you demanded the maximum sentence. And even though that’s what you wanted, you allowed Chris to speak from his heart as you saw it. I didn’t hear him asking for the maximum sentence.”

Of course. Look at the “network state” concept that the alt right tech bros love.

Tiny nation states ruled by the elites, where laws and rights are set not by a wide ranging view of human rights, but by those in power. One of your only rights is the ability to leave. To where? Who knows, and surely nit with all your valuables going with you. No voting, not basic dignity, nothing else if the techo kings dont want to provide it. Corpo kings, contract as the only law.

The end state of the above and fascism is the same. A ruling class that sets the rules, and a citizenry that has to abide by them, or else.

Is it literal fascism? Who knows. Are you under the boot of a privileged class, at the full mercy of their whims just like monarchy or fascism? Yes indeed.

Looking at the trees brings most of the relief, so I expect even those are just as calming as long as you don’t touch them and don’t know what they are.

Wired, wireless. A flared base is the actual key.

Dont worry. Most of those will burn down, leaving plenty of room for houses to be built to the new requirements.

Best case is enough houses get built to this standard and intermixed into those neighborhoods to give a type of “herd immunity” from fires moving house to house. Hell, even a good bulwark of these in a line facing the forest might do it.

Trees are also essential for insects, bird and animal life in cities. They are also psychologically calming for people as well.

Holy fuck. Red truck, pale fuck, blue truck. Red, white and blue.

The lift here is that you setup the end users client. If they aren’t local, buy one and ship it. Since it will be on your always on tailscale vpn, you can then interact with it remotely if needed.

Android tvs can be had for $35, Raspi 5 are around the same range, with apple tvs about $130. Have people pony up the cash and mail one of what they want out to them.

That may be too much to ask if you share to a lot of casual friends/family, but its been a successful answer for me.

Jellyfin takes more work, but can be a “simple” end user experience if you set it up for them.

Use a reverse proxy to get a letsenceypt cert for your jellyfin server. SWAG, Caddy, lots of options. Then setup a free tailscale account and add your jellyfin server to your tailnet. Install the jellyfin and tailscale apps on the user android tv/apple tv/computer, then enroll the devices in your tailnet.

They will have always on, ssl secured, vpn protected media sharing for free.

They sold to private equity a couple years back. The enshittification started that day.

D works well. Being dead puts you in a decent “no one to fool with” category.

Fucker cant even do a prat fall at this point.

Almost took a job early in my career that would have led to being an oracle DBA. Have managed to continue not working with Oracle at all the rest.

I may be oracle proof. Maybe I should give these hospitals a ring.

Glaciers take millions of years to deposit boulders across the land.

Humans: “we can do better.”

Shitbird thought he was a cop now and didnt have to follow any laws.

Nope.

Predators often hide among charity efforts. It gives them cover, power and easy access to victims.

Based on him saying he was leaving the deeply unpopular and public slashing of the federal government.

The market seriously thinks Tesla will be selling well again when hes not wearing MAGA hats so publicly.

The board is his brother and a bunch of conservatives. He hand picked them.

They ain’t firing anyone.

EVs have drastically reduced maintenance compared to most cars. It’s fully possible they wont have to pay Tesla anymore money, especially if they opt for home charging or use non Tesla charging stations.

Just keep that dumb fuck poilievre from taking the PM seat. That’s the biggest thing Canada can do for us.

Ive been using pop-os for my desktop for years. Ive had no update headaches, roll back issues, or anything else that would compel me to swap distros for one that made these things better.

So to answer your question:

None of the above are compelling features that justify the work to switch off an already very stable distro.
