I don't like to judge idiots too harshly, but if you bought a product marketed as an encrypted toilet camera you deserve whatever happens to you

🎶He blows up boats,

And the survivors too

While he drinks that whiskey down

He chats on apps

That are insecure

And he'll never be held to account🎶

Where I live I see mom and dad getting pulled over all the time for going 30 in a 25 on the way to drop Little Timmy off at preschool, so different everywhere I guess. I wish cops would focus on catching people who've committed major crimes rather than being citation money printing presses.

Well good, get it on the books for future historians if nothing else.

Oh yeah, I was not even considering trying to jam everything in that tiny case and getting the cooling and cabling sorted out. I would for sure skip that and just go with a standard mid-size tower, were I going to try this (I'm not)

Well first we don't know the price, other than "like a PC" unless I missed something.

Second, sure, someone like me, who already has the background and experience building gaming PCs, maybe (maybe) I could replicate most of the specs at the same cost, possibly even improve them in a few areas. But economies of scale, the labor on my end, shifting market prices... Unless Valve is marking these things up like 50% or more I just don't see how an individual is going to compete on cost once you include labor.

Lol Mike Johnson done fucked up. Discharge petitions essentially mean your own caucus hates you and can't work with you, so they use the opposition to get around you. There have been like an average of about 1 of these per congress over the last 100 years, now we have two huge ones in just a couple months.

Because there could not be a more cut-and-dry example of an illegal order than firing on helpless shipwrecked survivors, that's why.

In highschool we used to just repeat large portions of the script of Grail to each other in place of actual human conversation. I can still trot out the whole "Old woman!" scene by memory when the moment calls for it.

Or "like my dear Pa-Par" in some versions 🤣

Everyone trying to look serious or intellectual and Cleese just grinning like an idiot in the background love it
