If the machines are rigged in favor of one candidate, then the people who actually voted for that candidate still do get what they voted for. But the voting population as a whole doesn’t.

How strange, watching a country’s government fight so hard to make sure its people cannot eat.

And the backing of Peter Thiel, a billionaire with a surveillance empire just ripe for use in political oppression.

Presumably once YouTube finishes rolling out age verification, all these age restricted videos will require logging in to view them and anonymous front end apps will be locked out.

I don’t see anything in the video that suggests his reaction is misrepresented in the picture. He stares at the man with apparent frustration and contempt for a few seconds then turns away as shown in the photo.

It’s an inclusive “or”.

I’m not saying this is the ideal solution, but I’ve had decent performance from the house to a shed 60 feet away using Asus ZenWifi AX XT8 nodes in the house (with one in the window at the back of the house) and an Asus RT-AX56U extender in the shed. Most days I get decent speeds, good enough to use for work and watching videos. Very occasionally there’s a bad day. I originally tried with the dual-band Asus ZenWifi AX Mini cubes, but they were not powerful enough. Their bigger tri-band units work better.

There are probably better solutions though, using directional dishes. I just did this because, like you, I didn’t want to have to mess with holes for ethernet cables, mounting dishes to poles, etc.

Oh, and I once had bad signal so I put the unit at the back of the house at what would roughly be the focal point of a large metal kitchen bowl and pointed the bowl at the shed, and the signal improved dramatically

The Asus boxes are overpriced when new, but you can get them for cheap used.

You never know whether a stranger on the internet is dyslexic. It might be preferable to let a spelling error slide rather than attack someone for what might be a disability they can’t help. Plus there are plenty of people for whom English is not their first language. And then there are people who are just bad at spelling, but it doesn’t really matter.

This seems unwise.

Trump looks like his operating system has crashed. Maybe he’s rebooting, maybe he’s just frozen.

Remember this story from years ago?

Donald Trump says he turned his back on ‘dying’ 80-year-old man because it was disgusting

At least one of whom went on to take her own life. These are not good men.

To be fair, things that blow up do go boom.

That’s such a feeble criticism: a socialist, living in a capitalist society where everything costs money, needs money to do things, therefore they’re not really a socialist. There’s no logic to that. Why would anyone imagine that a socialist doesn’t need money to do things in a capitalist society? Is he a fraud because he hasn’t transformed New York into a moneyless society since yesterday (despite not even being sworn in yet)? When did he promise to do that, or is it just right wingers having no clue what socialism is again?

The DHS has alleged that the 32-year-old “exited his vehicle wielding a hammer and threw rocks at law enforcement while he had a child in his car”.

I assume every single one of ICE’s self-jusitfying stories is false, until proven otherwise.

You forgot the scare quotes around “government”. The whole world can see that they’re making no serious attempt to govern the USA. They’re just stealing and punishing, and any agreements they make cannot be taken seriously.

They’d need some way of funding themselves. Doing journalism professionally on the internet is not an easy way to make a living, especially when you’re starting from scratch and self-employed. Even the larger media organizations struggle to make money from internet journalism.

Air India has offered an interim compensation payment to Mr Ramesh of £21,500, which has been accepted, but his advisers say this is not enough to meet his immediate needs.

The family fishing business in Diu in India, which Mr Ramesh ran with his brother before the crash, has since collasped, his advisers said.

Spokesman for the family Mr Seiger said they had invited Air India for a meeting on three occasions, and all three were either “ignored or turned down”.

The media interviews were the team’s way of reissuing that appeal for the fourth time, he said.

Mr Seiger added: "It’s appalling that we are having to sit here today and putting him [Viswashkumar] through this.

"The people who should be sitting here today are the executives of Air India, the people responsible for trying to put things right.

“Please come and sit down with us so that we can work through this together to try and alleviate some of this suffering.”

Poor guy. It sounds like he’s really struggling. Air India needs to do right by him and pay him enough for some good mental and physical care. The amount they have paid him isn’t nearly enough, as he could have lifelong problems from the crash.
