Biden doesn’t have to go through every file himself. Form a small committee of legal experts you respect and take a bite out of what you can.
2pt_perversion@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•The message to Democrats is clear: you must dump neoliberal economics9·6 months agoI guess it doesn’t matter at this point but it’s always weird to me that opponents can’t seem to acknowledge that Trump is a formidable political opponent. He’s good at talking to and engaging some groups of Americans which is why he managed to win twice.

Suggests Freezing Trump Hush-Money Case While He Is President30·7 months agoHonestly I don’t want to give him more incentive to go full dictator by dangling a prison sentence over his head the moment he stops being president. They botched all these cases by waiting too long.

They’re still “But Gaza!” people regardless of how the idea that they should abstain from voting got into their head.

2pt_perversion@lemmy.worldto Buy it for Life@slrpnk.net•The Instant Pot Failed Because It Was a Good ProductEnglish189·8 months agoThis is an older story. The narrative that it failed because it was too good is false. It was a private equity leveraged buyout that doomed it. The company got saddled with like 8x debt with a lot of that money going to dividends for the PE firm.
The product and the brand were strong enough that they’ve been sold to a different firm in the bankruptcy. If they are competently managed they should be fine.

2pt_perversion@lemmy.worldto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•Nintendo shuts down Switch emulator Ryujinx55·8 months agoPeople think emulator protections in the law are stronger than they really are. Sony vs Connectix made emulation legal, but it wasn’t heard by the supreme court. PS1 games weren’t encrypted and relied on other methods like disc wobble to prevent piracy…so without proactively violating any measures you could just not include that check in your competing emulator and play retail discs without breaking any laws.
In steps the DMCA anti-circumvention laws for bypassing video game / console encryption measures, which is an even bigger untested minefield without precedent in favor of emulation. And since games are default encrypted on new consoles and arguably not subject to exemption (at least while still supported) it really might be a disaster to fight it.
Nintendo is a dick but it’s not in our interest or theirs to really push the boundary on the status quo. The get to slap suit whatever they want taken down, we get to play the emulation hydra game where it’s still legally grey.
Honestly I’m curious how the hell skull is even supposed to symbolize 3. A cross meaning one because “one true god” is a bit of a stretch too but the skull?
