  1. Re:Jurisdiction on Bitcoin Transactions Lead To Arrest of Major Drug Dealer (techspot.com) · · Score: 3, Informative

    He sold at some point to US customers. The thing is, it's his own damn fault that he was caught. He brought a completely unencrypted computer with all the evidence needed to convict his stupid ass to US soil. Methinks he had been partaking of his own stash too often.

    Yep, it happens every year. Oh wait.

  3. They're demanding all the information of people who had direct participation in an account integral in setting up riots during the inauguration. They will then cross reference this information with all the people they arrested and charge any successful hits with conspiracy as well as the other charges they're up on.

  4. You're a fucking moron. Antifa was labeled by the Obama administration as a domestic terrorist organization in 2016.

  5. If you're running single threaded applications primarily why the fuck would you buy the 7960X or 7980XE?

    Highly unlikely unless you're running AVX512 specific loads.

  7. Which never got nearly as hot or power hungry as this thing does once you OC it to an equivalent stage on it's performance curve. Course, the heat issue is primarily because Intel chooses to use toothpaste to save marginal amounts of money at best.

    Sorry, but with the level of medical tech that the ST universe has adult edge cases like that would be almost unimaginably rare. Especially cases caused by extra chromosomes as that would be easiest to fix permanently during childhood.

    It's entirely possible this was an improved stealth variant that they were testing to explicitly find out if anyone noticed the noise. Which means they very well may have been flying below 500 ft.

    While taken alone the interview might be frivolous when considered in combination with the fact that he went 11+ years without making any copyright claims over Pepe whatsoever including many instances of people making money off the property that he was aware of means that it could easily be considered binding

    The relevant portion.

    Thoughts on Pepe becoming the mascot for 4chan?

            Pepe offers you complete support, attention, and embraces how capable you are of birthing your own Pepe. As your God, my hope is to enhance your Pepe birthing experience by empowering you through it. Obey Pepe. Obey Me. Bow down to your leader. Worship me. Give me genital love or non-genital love. Both are wonderful.

    But 4chan went crazy for Pepe, yes?

            I believe that the most important thing I can do as an artist is to protect the voices of anonymous people on the Internet and help ensure that that those voices are honored. It is my job to help 4chan have the experience that they want without judgment or criticism. In the end, I want 4chan to feel they were supported by being heard, respected, and part of the decision-making process. Instead of promoting my own agenda, it is my goal to promote 4chan. Different things work for different people. Let me support you in the way you choose to draw Pepe.

    What about people profiting off of Pepe?

            I believe in supporting people’s decisions to profit off of Pepe in order to provide them with the most positive business experience possible. I strive to be an advocate for Pepe in both love and enterprise and hope to help business people to have an empowering and joyful experience while making an ocean of profits as limitless as the universe.

    While he still has control over his original Pepe works the idea that he maintains control over anything else after those statements is ludicrous.

    Except Pepe was created in 2005 and he has not ever done so apart from a single book, which had it actually gone all the way to court and been fought the person he sent the C&D letter to probably could have won. Pretending that a business that sends C&D's or grants limited use to people as soon as it becomes aware of them is remotely the same at what Matty boy is trying to do is rather dishonest.

    The fact that you think his case is clear cut shows you know jack and shit about the history of Pepe, copyright law, or both.

    Yes, he can grant license to use it. But that requires either establishing something akin to the creative commons license with more restrictions in writing, or personally giving the go ahead to each individual work. Instead he not only has not done either of those things, but in an interview with the Daily Dot several years ago pretty explicitly abandoned copyright of Pepe.

    It wouldn't exactly be difficult to implement a system to stop that though(I can think of three systems off the top of my head), so all it really shows is that the people on top are fugging morons.

  17. Given that the FDA purposefully slow-rolled all their competitors anything harsher and certain inconvenient facts might suddenly come to light.

    The Dark Tower was literally just a setup for the shitty TV series they're planning.

    No, he was sent to jail because VW lied about it on three separate occasions to US regulators and got caught on discrepancies multiple times over the course of a decade. It was the final time that the exact nature of their corruption was uncovered and what they got the smackdown for.

    Antifa knows they are loathsome piles of cowardly dog shit unwilling to actually stand up for what they believe in, that's why they wear masks when they throw cement filled soda cans at people and bash their heads in with bike locks.
