"In seeking to protect his criminal enterprise, Ross also solicited the murder-for-hire of several individuals he believed posed a threat to that enterprise" (not word for word, but it's hard to copy and paste from a PDF on my phone) - https://www.justice.gov/sites/default/files/usao-sdny/legacy/2015/03/25/US%20v.%20Ross%20Ulbricht%20Indictment.pdf

Very against the grain of Republican norms to grant this pardon, but here we are.

My guess would be from cloned cuttings, but I don't know for certain.

I highly recommend Squad. It's a solid middle ground between Battlefield and ARMA. The community aspect behind it makes it great and communication is key to success.

The main win is banning a content recommendation algorithm that is influenced by the CCP. A secondary win is reducing consumption of short form content. A tertiary win is eliminating that God awful narrator voice.

There's no valid 1st amendment argument here. This doesn't ban American voices, that can continue to be shared on alternative platforms, it bans the CCP Government's propaganda inserting itself in American media consumption.

A win is a win

The Donbass and Crimea are currently occupied by Russia, there's never been any Ukrainian held election allowing for the secession of this territory. These regions are not self governing entities that can make this determination. With all due respect, you seem a bit dull, so I'll just leave it at that.

When the Taiwanese people democratically declare they want to become part of China. I don't see the US sending military aid to China as long as their claims to the South China Sea don't respect international maritime law. I'd also imagine respecting intellectual property rights is a concern, in addition to China's genocidal actions towards the Uyghurs.

I define rightfully as internationally recognized sovereign territory, further backed up by the agreements the aggressor made in the past.

Ukraine will continue to fight for what is rightfully theirs. They've done an outstanding job so far, and it's really highlighted the decline of Russian influence on the world stage. Russia is nothing more than a petrodollar fueled aggressor.

I'm not sure an outright ban is justified, nor necessary. Maybe disallow copyright on AI generated material? That'd be a step in the right direction at first glance. I'd like to hear any counters to this stance.

Interesting, I had ruled this out as likely because all 4 HDMI ports didn't pick up a signal, but I'll take a closer look at the board I pulled out.

 

Am intrigued.
