  1. Clarifying, Justice Jackson issued a 48 hour administrative stay pending the First Circuit's ruling on a substantive stay.
  2. For the record, Rogan is not overtly political. And that's why he's toxic. He's a dumb, okey doke, get-along guy that has political guests that are essentially manipulating him and his audience. He's not smart enough to challenge them and by just nodding along with them, implicitly endorses them and makes them acceptable to his audience. On occasion, his endorsement rises above implicit to explicit, but I still don't consider him political. He seems to appeal to the sort of youth that are susceptible to the manosphere because of their impotence (not sexually, but that too) and that's a profitable but bad place to be, really.
  3. Yeah, one of the primary rights provided by copyright is the exclusive right to reproduce a copyrighted work. Unlike downloading content, which could get you in trouble with your ISP and with rights owners, viewing a stream doesn't involve the reproduction right. If you are saving streams, you're reproducing. If you're re-streaming, you're violating the exclusive right to distribute copyrighted work. ISPs cut off downloaders, because if they didn't after acquiring knowledge of extensive infringement, the rights owners would sue them for contributory infringement, having provided the instrumentality for the downloaders to infringe. I'm not sure any theory of contributory infringement could apply to viewers of illegal streams, or to the ISPs that "allow" them to.
  4. Sounds like Rhoades might have a lil drinky problem. Only a drunk would get that aggro about something like that.
  5. Why Desperation and not Regulators? Tak.
  6. Bitchass whinging about unfollowed replies on some First Amendment basis. For me, not thee.
  7. Look at those motherfuckers, armed with black rifles and tacticool gear, walking down the sidewalk in an American neighborhood that looks to be above the mean. This is what you voted for.
  8. Johnson is such a toady. I'm glad the Chief and City Council were right-minded on this.
  9. Or the cat food. In your bank account.
  10. So, Rikki, is a pinky ring just too much?
  11. Fucking "Patriot" Awards, honoring only MAGA grifters, from an alleged news network. But MSM is biased!
  12. What's kind of amusing is that with steam and rifled cannon in turrets came the maneuverability and range to engage another ship or ships at range and somewhat independent of formation (battle lines no longer required). And then we had maybe a dozen of those kind of naval battles over the next 30-40 years and then nada. Right, and much more a dreadnought battleship than a sail-powered ship of the line.
  13. Yeah, why is Carville hiring W&C when the AD was libeled, if he was libeled. Bizarro. That said, if W&C files suit in Louisiana, they'll do everything in their power to neutralize the politics or tilt them in their favor.
  14. Bet he's glad that dress uniform includes gloves.
  15. One lie destroys credibility. Dozens or hundreds of lies don't.
  16. Exceptionally stupid. And bigoted.
  17. I won't call them flat bad. This year is flat bad. But for the reasons you cite, they were less than championship caliber, for sure, and were exposed when playing top-level defenses.
  18. But all politicians lie!
  19. If you're going to include sailing ships with broadside smoothbore/muzzle-loading cannon, then you have to include aircraft carriers. Although it may have been aspirational, longer-range naval artillery didn't really exist until rifled breech-loaders, which also roughly coincided with steam power and iron hulls.
  20. Oh they're super serious about making money.
