"So you can't publish housing ads in a magazine almost exclusively read by older men"
Actually, no mention of age is in the advertising-specific sections of the Fair Housing Act, though it is mentioned elsewhere in non-advertising contexts. That would probably be the sticking point in a court room.
"Section 804(c) of the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3604(c), as amended, makes it unlawful to make, print, or publish, or cause to be made, printed, or published, any notice, statement, or advertisement, with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling, that indicates any preference, limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin, or an intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination."
Back in the day, most studio to transmitter links were radio, unidirectional, and LOS, so not a lot of power required. Easily overridden with say... an old van with a generator in it and a transmitter aimed at the transmitter's antenna.
Now days, it is mostly done via fiber optic links, so less of a chance there, but since most TVs still accept and work with analog signals, odds are pretty good you could just blast your own signal high enough locally to do this same thing.
"It would probably be impossible to replicate that hack today"
Nope, just repeat the emergency broadcast signal and override. To boot, just wash out the station with an illicit transmitter of your own, most of these TVs still work with analog signals.
"Unlike trying to use a 10 amp 120 volt extension cord to plug in a coffeepot it's not possible to melt the USB-C cable for exceeding the power rating of a cable."
This is actually wrong and we even had a story right here on/. about a guy finding wrongly-specced USB-C charging cables (and their subsequent failures) on Amazon and similar sites. Doesn't matter telling the system you can handle 5 amps when you're using 32AWG wiring, the shit will fucking blow at 5 amps because you can't push that much current down that small of a wire.
Words hurt and other them so much that I'd bet not a single one of them could take a real-life dressing-down. These are the kinds of people psychologists classify as shut-ins and generally unproductive people.
Oh, yea, even the original Wolf of Wall Street said to avoid Bitcoin like the fucking plague. When a PROVEN AND ADMITTED CRIMINAL INVESTOR says to avoid BTC because it's a scam, smart people listen.
Bitcoin has ZERO essential value. You can't eat bitcoin. You can't use bitcoin to make a vaccine. You can't even wipe your ass with bitcoin.
Meanwhile, the global economy could collapse, and I've got enough shiny rocks that would get me laid all I want by various women until I die, because mating rituals for humans haven't changed all that much in millennia. Rocks off the ground have more intrinsic value than Bitcoin.
Uhh, let's see, their search engine and advertising deal with Yahoo, and we all know about Yahoo's data breach, unless you've been living under a rock for years.
Someone's already posted the specific freqs for the entirety of the DJI line - in before everyone just makes a signal jammer and keeps DJIs from ever leaving the ground.

Subsection D says you're dead wrong and in fact you must equally present that dotted line.
Apparently you failed, too.
"Section 804(c) of the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3604(c), as amended, makes
it unlawful to make, print, or publish, or cause to be made, printed, or published, any notice,
statement, or advertisement, with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling, that indicates any
preference, limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial
status, or national origin, or an intention to make any such preference, limitation, or discrimination."
To wit: Here's the whole fucking text.
Try again when you actually have a brain, shill-bitch. This statute makes discriminatory advertising with regards to housing illegal as well.
You apparently didn't even bother finding and reading the relevant law, you fuckwit.

I'm not missing shit, son. I READ THE FUCKING RELEVANT LAW. You apparently did not.

The fine they would get would be small in comparison to the advertising revenue they're getting, so there's no reason to stop breaking the law.
"Because it's advertising, not commerce."
Did money exchange hands? It's commerce no matter how you try to camouflage it.
"they are completely inaccurate"
Found the idiot that doesn't know how to aim.
Instead you rely upon languages to handle the safety and optimizations your lazy ass couldn't be bothered learning in the first place.
And you wonder why someone else guts your shit - they understand the basics which you failed to learn.
Reading their shit for 25+ years, no, they're thin-skinned punks.
That's why I avoid using BSD for the most part - I refuse to associate with that kind of mentally-weak group of people.
My lasers beat your bullets, and are silent and essentially undodgable, because you don't see the light until the light itself hits you.
Please come try. Your eyeballs would be fried before you could ever get within range.
It is a crime. If you knowingly allow your vehicle to be operated by an impaired person, and they kill someone, you are an accessory.
Spoken like a pacifist fuckwit that's never held a blade in their life.

Billions, 200 of them.
My criminal record is actually known on this site, so you can just LOL right the fuck off back to your mommy's tit, child.
Good luck robbing me - you're picking the absolute wrong felon to fuck with on that front.

No, were not ignorant, we're educated with historical fucking proof and experience.
Typical droll bullshit from a n00b 5+million UID spambot. Go back to sucking on your mother's titty, adults are speaking.

At 100+MB no it does not fix any fucking bloat.
