The article only alludes to answering the question “Who is engineering this?”

It’s the ad platforms. They’re doing it. They’re selling ads, then they’re also using bots to pump up the impression numbers, so that they get paid more.

This is fraud.

Marketing doesn’t work nearly as well as marketers would like you to believe, so much so that they have to fake their effectiveness.

Never forget that even convicted felons have rights that deserve defending.

I’m sure it required a massive amount of pressure.

Yes this is true. It also adds an extra layer of “are you making the right decision”, so take extra care.

“I won’t negotiate with you until you give up on all of the things you want.”

This translates to “I won’t negotiate with you.” Because the “until” phrase would be the elimination of anything to be negotiated.

They’re just insolent children stamping their feet.

That is the answer, and I don’t think confusion would play any part here.

If the kidnapping victim in this scenario somehow survives, they’ll surely be held in custody pending trial. When it comes to legal firearm use, they would need to make the case that A) they reasonably felt in imminent danger for their lives, and B) that they acted to eliminate the threat. Even in an ideal world where a jury acquits them, they still get to live with “I killed someone”.

If you’re carrying, you have to have already been doing everything right before any incident where you are forced to eliminate a threat to your person. If you did anything provocative, you’re fucked. After the threat is eliminated, you need to stop shooting, because if you take any harmful action after threats have been eliminated, you’re fucked.

But the fact is that if you’re in that situation, where you have to draw and fire, there’s going to be multiple people (threats) on you. The odds that you are able to eliminate all of those threats before being killed yourself are low.

“Driving without license plates” is unusual.

Mostly new, some prototypes even. But I also know that the build quality and safety of Chinese automobiles has increased dramatically in the last decade-ish.

“The” admins? All that spam was coming from new accounts made at instances with little oversight.

This is about the “you have to get our permission to report anything” policy.

The whole thing being enclosed in quotes was supposed to imply that that’s what they’d be asking. Because they are incompetent.

Let’s say the prosecution does pony up a bunch of discovery material. Once that’s done, if the prosecution wants to introduce new things to base their case on, wouldn’t any of those additional pieces of discovery have to be newly acquired information, and not information the prosecution already had, but just didn’t draw a line to yet?

Wouldn’t that be the legal safeguard against this kind of retributive indictment? (Provided it’s actually enforced, of course.)

“Wait … what’s ‘discovery material’?”

I did notice that the one posted today is not one of my favorites. The ones I’m used to seeing are hosted by Eric, and are really just car reviews like you’d see anywhere … just for Chinese cars in China.

That doesn’t really help.

“Their cost and the quality of their vehicles is far superior to what I see in the West,” Farley warned in July.

If you want to see what the Chinese car market is like, check out Wheelsboy. The features that are just standard in Chinese cars are crazy.

Specifically in the context of farm machinery: Any unsold equipment already in the US has just lost a ton of its value, since customers are going to be less likely to trust that they’ll be able to get parts. Any privately owned equipment just lost a ton of its resale value, for the same reason.

What exactly does “far-left” mean in the context of Israeli state politics?

I know that when I throw things at law enforcement and end up getting arrested because of it, they always just let me go without charges later.
