What's to keep Trump from now making a deal with a skilled murderer: "I'll pardon you for your last murders if you promise to kill Nancy Pelosi and I'll pardon you for that murder, too."
The fact that Trump can only pardon federal convictions and murder is generally a state offense that he can't pardon. This is one reason the investigations by the New York state authorities is so interesting. Regardless of whether or not Trump can pardon himself (and there's some question on that point) he can't pardon himself from any charges they might bring.
We kinda had a standard. GNOME. Even it wasn't "first", it was created after KDE which, while decent, had legitimate licensing problems at the time GNOME was created.
Ah, you're young. I remember when we had a standard: Motif.
Go back and reread Linus's quote. He's not talking about standardizing the UI, he's talking about standardizing the inner workings, like how applications are installed.
As in "You're not getting a dividend, I'm going to give tons of company money to a non-profit owned by my fat minger wife's cat and you can go pound sand".
And such things have happened; you need to have a great deal of trust in someone with a controlling interest in your investment. But there are remedies, as it's extremely illegal to do that; it's called "shareholder oppression". Courts can and will force compensation for this. It's suboptimal solution, but it's something.
Er, no they aren't. Not all Jews are from Israel. In fact, not even most Jews are from Israel. In this case, they're almost all native-born US citizen whose ancestors emigrated from Eastern Europe.
....aaand if the vaccines work so well, then all those who aren't the anti-vaxxers will be perfectly safe, right?
Wrong.
1. There are about 5% or less of those vaccinated for whom it doesn't "take". There's no easy way to test for this.
2. There are those who legitimately can't be vaccinated. Those who have compromised immune systems. For some vaccines, those who are too young.
3. Vaccines hold out the promise of completely eradicating a disease, like we did smallpox. Anti-vaxxer are working to ensure reservoirs of diseases remain in existence.
I think herd immunity is bullshit...
No, it's not. It's amazing how many people think herd immunity is some sort of mystical concept, when it's really very simple and straightforward If almost everyone in a community is immune, then there is no one the few who are not can catch the disease from. It's just that simple.
I wish the mayor would actually call them out as morons.
While satisfying, and true, it would not be productive. There's no better way to set a man's opinions in concrete than to call him an idiot for having them.
In this case it is more about the journey instead of the outcome
On the contrary, the outcome is all that matters to him and has already been determined. No matter what happens on his flight, he will proclaim that it demonstrates how the earth is flat.
Refusing to accept cash would disproportionately affect a certain protected class in the area.
That is not, in and of itself, illegal. In such cases, the store has to show that a) the policy is not directly targetted at the protected class (which it clearly is not) and b) there is a legitimate business reason for the policy (which they'd have to convince a court of).
Common argument, doesn't work. If you don't agree to pay credit, the store refuses to sell to you. Store refuses to sell to you (and a store can always refuse to sell to you, unless you can show illegal discrimination), there's no debt, so no use pointing to the "all debts" words on your cash.
But it does mean that the executable file wasn't altered in transit.
Catching executables in flight and altering them sound like a really hard way to do something unless your ISP is doing it to you (and if your ISP would do that to you, you have much bigger problems). It ranks way down on my list of worries, being massively overshadowed by the possibilities that the site itself has been hacked or is intentionally serving up malware--neither of which this does anything to help you cope with.
So the airlines are revising their schedules to be more in line with reality. Isn't this a good thing? And its not making the flights actually longer or is "bad for the environment." The flights themselves aren't changing; passenengers are just being given more accurate information about the flight.
So I don't know, but I'm willing to bet that the bigger problem, that Windows by default automatically mounts and runs any USB media you shove into it, has gone unfixed.
Well, no, the Amazons weren't Lesbians (well, some of them may have been lesbians, but they weren't from Lesbos). In fact, they weren't even Greek, "Amazon" was simply the Greek name for them. Supposedly they originally came from Lybia but migrated to Anatolia (modern Turkey, before the Turks took it over). The general modern opinion is that they were in fact a Greek myth. Unfortunately, the fun etymology that "amazon" derives from the ancient Greek "a-mazos" "without a breast" seems to be false.
Royal status can usually only be lost once - I know no cases where a republic changed back to monarchy again.
How about France? Granted, it wasn't permenant, but it changed to a Republic, then to an Empire, then back to a Kingdom under the original dynasty, then back to a Republic, then back to an Empire and then back to a Republic again. I'll give you, there's not much indication at this point that will stop being a Republic any time soon.
There's also the fact that vaccination holds out the promise of completely wiping out a disease (like we did smallpox). But anti-vaxxers are working to ensure reservoirs of infectious diseases remain in existence.
But, aren't the anti-vaxxers mostly spreading it to each other, and therefore taking themselves out of the 'pool' so to speak?
Mostly, but not entirely. There are those who have legitimate medical reasons they can't be vaccinated, most of them because they have a compromised immune system. There's also a small percentage of people vaccinated for whom it doesn't "take"; they don't become immune. This happens at random and there's no easy way to test for it. Under universal vaccination, these people are protected by "herd immunity" (which is just a fancy way to say "since almost everybody's immune, there's nobody to catch the disease from"). But every person who could have be vaccinated but wasn't puts these people at risk.
That's not going to help, since the major problem for everybody is that some people aren't getting vaccinated. Honestly, I wouldn't be nearly so mad at the anti-vaxxers if they were only hurting themselves. Unfortunately, since they are helping to spread contagious diseases, they're not.

Maybe we'll get lucky and the shoggoths will eat him.
A lot more were unsurprisingly appalled by Mr. Bone Spurs's treatment of John McCain even after McCain had died.
Or maybe it's just behavior that a cast member of "The Real World" would've been ashamed of.
...they decided that Oracle would be much more appropriate for the SITH contract.

Fixed that for you.

Of course they are. So are live visits; with the exception of conjugal visits, the guard's going to be right there.
