It's too late, they killed him despite the prosecutors and victims family and DNA evidence all pointing towards his innocence. I have seen stories about him everywhere for the last week but apparently Missouri isn't bothered by negative press, they just love killing black people. An aptly named state; I hope its residents riot but I've been to St. Louis and know better than that. I'm afraid this is the new status quo.

Wtf are you talking about? Are you that hard up for an argument? Lemmy.ml is thataway. Anyway I'm Jewish and have been my whole life so the three months of Christmas in America made me feel extremely isolated and excluded as a kid, but I actually got to participate in Halloween. You can try and invalidate the experience of millions of non-christian non-white Americans but that doesn't make you quirky and unique, either. No one is thinking "wow this dude is so smart!" for pointing out the capitalist undertone that's shared by literally every holiday in western society. Now do kindly fuck off.

The holiday about spooky things and kids dressing up and getting candy is not religiously exclusionary no. Christmas' origins were not, either, but we're not talking about the origins of these holidays, we're discussing them in their current form, so go be a pedant on some other thread. I'm sure there's plenty where the pedantry could actually be relevant to the conversation taking place.

Let's talk about Hunter Biden's laptop. The laptop became a focal point of political controversy in the United States during the 2020 presidential election. The story began in October 2020 when the New York Post published an article claiming to have obtained a copy of a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden. The laptop reportedly contained emails, texts, and other documents that raised questions about Hunter Biden's business dealings, particularly in Ukraine and China.
The laptop was allegedly left at a repair shop in Delaware, and after it was never picked up, the shop owner reportedly turned it over to the FBI and made a copy of the hard drive, which was later given to Rudy Giuliani, former President Donald Trump's personal lawyer.
The story sparked a massive political debate. Republicans and Trump supporters argued that the contents of the laptop suggested potential corruption involving Joe Biden. Democrats and many media outlets, however, were skeptical of the timing and the origins of the laptop story, suggesting it could be part of a disinformation campaign, possibly linked to foreign interference.
So here's what always bothered me about this story. Why was it left in a repair shop in Delaware and never picked up? Super secret super personal documents on a laptop without a password or any encryption is just dumped at a random repair shop and never picked up? And the owner hand delivers it to Giuliani?
And why should we care? Biden has never had his family working in his administration like Trump did. Most Republicans can't name a single cabinet member of the current administration but they can name Hunter and Jill so that's who they go after. How are his alleged crimes even relevant?
As far as Kyle Rittenhouse goes, why are you defending a kid who drove an hour to bring an automatic weapon across state lines to enthusiastically hunt down liberal protestors (in kinder words than he put it.) You're clearly not here in good faith if you're spreading the falsehood that what he did was in self defence or in any way defendable.

If I wanted a streaming box I'd buy or build a streaming box. If I wanted anyone with my remote control to be able to access my YouTube viewing history and all my streaming accounts I'd make it happen. What I want is a cheap dongle that my family and guests can use to quickly share media to the big screen!

Well it's certainly not proof per se*, but considering all the bugs and spies the USSR planted it seems like a no brainer that they would be listening in on any and all unencrypted over the air communications.
(or would this be considered technically a blep?)

It's funny that pics has a small fraction of the subscribers that catpics has. I get it though, I wasn't subscribed to pics on Reddit, and I almost didn't subscribe here. It was a cesspool of bland pictures with sob-stories. This pics is much better. Anyway here's a Scrub-Jay.
