There's no "substance" to the matter. If you're referring to the Steele dossier it had zero influence on the election. But, whatever floats your boat i guess.
I don't think they did. The GOP and McConnell in particular just made a point of obstructing Obama on everything possible back in the day - he even acknowledged so publicly.
It very much is if you're a foreigner who's getting paid to distribute political propaganda, be it through Twitter or any other media. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... for detais.
Why didn't he do something to secure our elections?
He did. Maybe you forgot the time back in 2016 when the Obama WH met with McConnell to inform him and others in Congress of Russian interference, and asked for a public warning announcement. McConnell denied it and stated he would oppose any announcement as political interference by Obama in the election.
Is it illegal to tweet a political opinion? Is it illegal to tweet about a candidate?
No. And, again, no.
The crime here is conspiracy to defraud the United States. From the actual indictment text, "...knowingly and intentionally conspired with each other (and with persons unknown to the Grand Jury) to defraud the United States by impairing, obstructing and defeating the lawful functions of the government through fraud and deceit for the purpose of interfering with the U.S. political and electoral processes, including the Presidential election of 2016."
At this point, I just figure that anyone who posts idiocy about the Russians not hacking the US is either a Russian shill or one of their dupes. Either that, or they're so soaked in conspiracy theories that their brains are addled. It's really no use listening to them. Once you decide that false information is as good as real facts, your mind might as well be gone.
No one wants to be proved wrong. Specially when the consequences are this dire.
I agree that Trump's campaign is probably correct in that they didn't knowingly seek to break any laws during the campaign.
That's not only irrelevant (being unaware of a law doesn't preclude you from prosecution when you break it) but almost certainly false. See Don Jr's e-mail exchanges with Russians promising dirt on Clinton for a example.
The WH was briefed about the indictments well before in advance of Rosenstein statements. The only reason he made that point over and over again is to appease Trump and feed some talking points to the right-wing media machine.
There's plenty of innovation happening in the speaker world. Today you can buy ridiculously cheap speakers with impressive performance, and even studio-quality monitors for about $500.
The HomePod, fwiw, is just a cheap full range speaker with digital EQ. The review is, well... what you'd expect from Reddit.
IIRC all Intel processors have a 3-year warranty so the impact would be limited... to, still, a shitload of processor. Sucks to be Intel in this case to be honest, but this is a serious issue which needs to be addressed by them.

It is sort of Stuff That Matters, you know.
That really reads like most AC comments on ./ for the past 5 years. Scary.
They sure did, and it is scary as fuck.
Yes.
Ponder on the implications for a second.

The US really hit an all-time low with Trump as POTUS.

This is not ending here.
Do they have an hydrochloric acid reserve or something?
maybe you can explain to us how that is supposed to work?
Sure thing!

About time all those private ISS customers started ponying up.
If i'm buying it yes, i decide the worth of an item.
The report was signed by Coats, the current DNI, and its assessments and conclusions were supported by the CIA, the FBI and the NSA.
Seriously, it is out there to be read. Give it a try.
Yeah. If only we had some sort of official intelligence report confirming Russia's interference in the 2016 elections...
It is God's way of playing with symbolism. Just like when Trump tried to pose with a bald eagle and it decided to attack him.

Nonstarter.
Why? Intel had to recall Pentiums due to the FDIV bug and that was arguably way less serious than Meltdown.
From what little i've read it certainly seems to be the case.
