“How many divisions has the Supreme Court?”
Even of a judge deputized someone to arrest an executive branch officer, it’s unlikely to actually happen. It always ends in who has bigger guns and that’s going to be the FBI, the Marshalls, or the secret service. No deputy trying to arrest someone on a bench warrant is going to get into a confrontation with a fellow LEO protecting said arrestee.
Not to mention Rand was an objectivist, not a libertarian.
You can follow users using Mastodon (I follow myself here from Mastodon). Not sure about other Fedi software.
Good call. The greenest purchase you can make is fixing the thing you already own.
You can’t put terms of service on a web page and bind people to it. Otherwise I could put up a site somewhere and say everyone who reads this owes me a dollar.
The terms are only enforceable when they are presented to the user before they use the software. My copy of Librewolf doesn’t present any terms to me so I am not bound by anything other than the redistribution license.
IANAL but all this is pretty common sense. You can’t add terms by posting them where the user wouldn’t see them. And Librewolf explains very clearly that it is not Firefox and is not a Mozilla product.
Reminds me of the Rule of Goats:
If you fuck a goat ironically, you’re still fucking a goat. Same goes with ironic Hitler salutes.
Yes, by law. Of course the business will abide by federal law before state law because federal law is supreme.
It’s a VPN within a VPN. So all your traffic over the Mullvad VPN connection has a VPN within it going to Proton (but only for Firefox).
To answer the questions directly:
“I have to see a man about a horse.”
It means you’re going to the bathroom.
It doesn’t. Might have been New Brunswick. Or I just made it up somehow. I can’t remember where I saw it.
My understanding is that some province is charging double on US commercial trucks that cross the border. Nova Scotia?
It’s a great idea, I agree. But people have to realize that a good 40% of the country thinks that holding undocumented immigrants in a military prison indefinitely is hella balls-to-the-fucking-wall awesome. These people are not interested in striking and most of the 60% left over are worried they’ll get fired tomorrow if they don’t show up to work.
I invite you to imagine a state or local prosecutor indicting a member of the armed forces for carrying out an order given by a superior.
It’s mostly because “fuck you, I do what I want.”
Pornhub is the only one that I know of that is doing the blocks by state. They are a big enough target that the laws could cause them a lot of trouble, and they’ve said they aren’t interested in checking IDs.
The sum total of the laws is that people will either get their porn on sites that don’t care about the various state laws and/or they will learn about using VPNs to get around blocks.
I’ve only heard of Mr. Belvedere doing this.
I take it he would like to watch porn but can’t? Then yes, that’s a problem and he should see his primary care doc first. It’s a quality of life issue.
This comes up a lot. The fact is that almost everyone who mined a few dozen BTC back then would have sold it when it reached $100. No one ever thought back in 2009 that it’d be worth what it is now.
You know how you think George W. Bush is the worst president we’ve ever had or ever will have? Well in 2017 you’re going to wish he was in office. Also, go to school in a foreign country so you can be a permanent resident there.
My contention is that the DOJ (who oversees the marshals) would order them to ignore the bench warrant.
Courts have the power to deputize whomever they choose. If they were to deputize, for instance, a state police officer because the marshalls wouldn’t carry out their orders, my belief is that no deputized agent would arrest someone for contempt if some LEO under federal control (FBI, the marshalls, capitol police, etc.) was protecting the person held in contempt. You will not get two sets of cops shooting at each other over this.
