Years ago I thought I was being smart encrypting my home dir on my Linux server. I found out the hard way this prevents remote login over ssh using public key encryption, as the .ssh dir is in the home dir, which is encrypted unless you are already logged in at the time! So every time I wanted to ssh in, I had to plug in a monitor and log in on the console first.

He won’t be IN the parade. He’ll be watching from some balcony as the goose stepping soldiers, and trucks with missile launchers etc file past.

Haha true

in the 90s telling (and asking) people those things would have been such a suspicious, sketchy move.

a/s/l?

Taking lessons would require showing humility and admitting he isn’t already naturally the best at something.

The dossier is probably just one of those binders full of upholstery samples.

More to the point, why set up cameras for the overflow crowd? They need screens showing footage from inside, not cameras filming them.

Also, he probably wants a giant gold statue of himself, paid for by taxpayers.

Sounds like the term I’ve heard a lot: “Champagne socialist”.

Fingerprint search found him on crime database?

Gone from mine too, tried every sorting option. The link in the other comment works though. Probably some federation thing.

I agree, but the Democratic campaign will now be muted, or Republicans will rebuke them for any attacks and the media will enable them to make Democrats look bad for it.

Not saying it is staged, but this is a gift for Trump. Now no one can attack Trump in speeches or ads for the next 3 months without looking like an arsehole.

I have to wonder how they persuaded homophobic men to sign up to such a study.

Velcro sewn to just inside the top of your pocket, so sticking a hand in your pocket makes a loud noise and you can feel it, for any pickpocket to separate the velcro.

Isn’t that more of the same crime the trial was about?

David Hume could out-consume Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel

What kind of children’s pastor brags about “staring down” her charges, or calls them tyrants?

I actually think the comment could be interpreted as Trump shit on the desk before leaving either to spite Biden (instead of leaving the traditional letter), or his declining mind allowed him to let slip an accident he himself had personally, and that “‘disgusting Biden’ is still using it, what a weirdo, I wouldn’t use it after I soiled it”.

In the 1960s, George Romney, Mitt’s father, regularly turned down his bonuses from his auto executive job, perhaps in part because his marginal tax rate would have been about 90 percent

If this is true he’s a fucking idiot. 10% of $x is better than $0. More likely the reason was that the bonuses pushed him over some threshold so he lost some other benefit, making it a net loss, or he negotiated some alternative compensation mechanism that had reduced or deferrable tax liability.
