Sam Alito Got Knighted… Just Like The Founding Fathers EXPLICITLY MADE UNCONSTITUTIONAL
  • Exactly how does it apply? It didn't come from a "King, Prince, or foreign State". I could declare that I grant you a title, but because it isn't coming from a monarch it's meaningless and that article doesn't apply.

  • Sam Alito Got Knighted… Just Like The Founding Fathers EXPLICITLY MADE UNCONSTITUTIONAL
  • I don't think the U.S. Constitution bans anyone from getting a title from some random French family, only from a "King, Prince, or foreign State".

    Is this article intentionally misrepresenting? There's plenty of scummy things he's done without having to invent weird distractions.

  • Please ban data caps, Internet users tell FCC
  • Like I get it, they don't want someone torrenting 100tb of data in a day. That bogs things down.

    No, that isn't accurate and isn't getting it.

    All the data caps today are for total cumulative quantity per billing cycle. That is not a reliable method for controlling what actually bogs things down, which is the bandwidth used at any moment (speed).

    Limiting bandwidth is also done by most ISPs today, but that's not what this is asking to change. The data caps are exclusively a way to charge more.

  • Sauerkraut cannot be cooked or frozen if you want the probiotics it offers
  • While I think that the lid can help a little by limiting air exchange, the purpose of these water barriers in fermentation is more to filter out larger objects and they don't hermetically seal. Exclusion of insects and airborne microbes help prevent undesired flavors. While they do create a slight bit of back-pressure, if the fermentation produces a significant amount of gas they need to let it pass through as stonewear cannot hold much pressure before it would break.

    Some people have rigged up carbon filters on the output of various fermentation vessels, so if spouses or apartment neighbors would object to the aroma that approach may be worth investigating. Nobody should let smells stop them without attempting solutions!

  • US cops get gun stuck to MRI machine in bungled cannabis raid
  • No misunderstanding - I get what you're saying and I disagree.

    I also don't agree that expecting journalists to be accurate makes someone an asshole. If they were reporting on an automobile and wrote that the spark plugs make 500HP we could guess what they likely meant, but we'd also recognize the journalist's ignorance. They should educate themselves on their subject matter so they can do their job properly.

  • US cops get gun stuck to MRI machine in bungled cannabis raid
  • Sure they do. The gun clubs I've joined foster an environment that attracts people who demonstrate care and consideration in all aspects concerning firearms. If someone is lazy and imprecise in the manner in which they communicate about guns, that might also apply to their general demeaner. After speaking with some of these fellows during public range days, it's not surprising when later they're shooting holes in the shelter roof or bouncing ricochets off the top of the berm.

  • 100% tire pressure
  • Aah, gotcha. I had thought that

    Probably less these days

    was in reference to this part at the end of the parent comment:

    cars generally float around the 32 psi area

    and I haven't seen anything to contradict all the previous literature on under-inflated automobile tires being worse for fuel economy.

  • Another valuable life lesson from Elmo and friends!
  • Generalizations that are oversimplified to the point of lacking all nuance are probably untrue because there are bound to be exceptions. Instead, try including 'many', 'most', or such as an easy remedy.

    Specifically, landlords can create value when they handle property management and maintenance (and the related costs) efficiently. It is wrong that greed has made that so rare.

  • Who Stops a "Bad Guy With a Gun"?
  • It also doesn't make any distinction between events that took place where the intended victims were allowed to be armed or not. Of course there will be less instances of armed defenders in areas where arms are prohibited.

    OPs premise is akin to the "small government" advocates who ruin government services and then point at how they don't work.

  • Unsealed FBI doc exposes terrifying depth of Russian disinfo scheme
  • The affidavit does not mention the full list of influencers [...]

    Well, why not? Name and shame all of them.

    FTOP:

    keeping a list of more than 2,800 influencers world wide [...] to monitor and potentially groom

    You want to persecute the victims? These people are being targeted by the Russian state and probably haven't done anything wrong. They should be protected from that, and also from those who are too quick to judge before they understand the situation.

  • Shocked face
  • There is no real need to use captured products though, so OP's question is flawed.

    Any desire to use said products (or not) needs to weigh the pros and cons of the captured products vs alternatives.
