Isn't this like leaving your team playbook on the hood of your car before the big game? Why can't or don't the parties opposing this use it to construct their game plan to systematically remove all the loopholes and methods that this "project" is using to promote their agenda? I'm the furthest thing from a politician, so ELI5.

You have a very interesting point about the muted mics actually being in Trump's favor while simultaneously allowing Biden to ramble like Grandpa Simpson.

Agreed. How about the other guy? Was anybody inspired by him?

I'm really sad that it's come to this. It's how I feel when my coworkers vote to go out to a sushi restaurant. I don't like fish and I'm allergic to shellfish, so I eat my pile of steamed rice and bite my tongue when they want to split the bill equally.

What was I talking about again?

I was behind two cars on the freeway, one in lane 1 and one in lane 3. They both decided to merge into the center lane at the same time. I remember the sound distinctly because it was so different than I expected. It sounded like two large, empty cardboard boxes hitting each other. No screeching tires or glass breaking sound (both windshields and side windows broke, but remained intact). It was very unexciting.

Isn't this simply the natural progression of capitalism in action? Everything's for sale, everything has a price.

I was wondering this same thing. Who would take on a loan that a bank deems unprofitable? Is this like turning the loan over to a loan shark and the shark has means to ensure payment that banks don't due to regulations? Are they selling to the govn't? Either option is not good.

I'm using tailscale (which I hear is just a wrapper for wireguard) and love it.

I came here for this. Thank you!

I'd love to do this properly. I tried it a while ago and it tasted like dirt. What is the best ratio of water to grounds?

This is me. I also like slightly burnt microwave popcorn. I dunno, maybe something's wrong with my taste buds.

And now it's so obvious! I should have guessed that.

True. I was referring more to the first part about being fired. After rereading it, the two weren't "fired". Although 3 years of probation isn't nothing, it's a far cry from what many feel should have been done. The CEO was banned from the industry, which is something.

I'd really be curious to know if the punishment of the CEO & "head of retail operations" provided relief to the people affected by their crime AND was substantial enough to change their behavior.I feel that those items are what the sentencing should be about.
