Lets not abdicate our responsibility to wildly speculate about the situation in their absence

Driving at the posted limit if everyone else is going 15-20 over can be incredibly dangerous. Which is why its legal to drive with the speed of traffic.

And it may be rare to see that situation in some places, but my local highway is often like that. I prefer to drive 5-10 over and no more, but if literally everyone else is driving 15-20 over then you really ought to not drive at the limit. If you do youll have people swerving around you at 20 over the limit.

Pullen estimated more than 200 people were inside the nightclub. Also among those detained were a dozen active-duty military members who either were patrons or working as armed security. Some patrons were arrested on undisclosed outstanding warrants, Pullen said.

A lot of us dont want any of this, but also arent either the autocrat in charge, the billionaires who bought him, nor are we the military that can stop him.

As much as a lot of us would stop this immediately if we could, we also dont need to let Trump have his Tienammen Square moment. The military should have removed him the moment it was clear that he is hell bent on destabilizing our country, our region, and the world at large.

This particular situation is pretty dark though. It seems like it could be a purge of anyone who wouldn’t blindly follow even completely illegal orders. Like using the military against the citizenry, or otherwise for domestic purposes

In the theoretical sense, digital sound files have over double the potential dynamic range of the best cassette tape or vinyl. CDs are better, but still well below what can be done with digital files.

The issue is that most digital formats are so compressed that they end up with 1/10th the dynamic range of a cassette tape.

So its more like analog is “better” only because we need to improve storage and up/down speeds before we can truly enjoy how much better digital can be compared to analog. Its just not practical yet

On Reddit at least, it seems like the answer to that depends on the political conveniences of the situation at hand

Id trust it more if they had said the 15% of Republicans that disprove of his immigration policy said that because they think he hasnt gone far enough

I think it would be quite reasonable for any lawyer who files something that includes references to case law that doesn’t exist to simply be disbarred.

The courts are backed up enough without having to deal with this bullshit. And it shows clear lack of concern for properly representing their client

If only they hadn’t sprung for the “e”
