> Angela Diaz was charged with 10 felony counts. She pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years in prison in October 2017.

It took the police so long to bring him to court that the wife was charged, found guilty, sentenced to 5 years, and released before his trial even started

Money is an addiction that is 100% sanctioned and even sponsored by our society. Of course it's the hardest to break.

I’m not saying that they’re wrong, but it hasn’t noticeably happened to me. Except for when Elon force unblocked people. But then I went and blocked him again, and it stuck this time.

Good thing he wasn’t shoplifting.

I saw this on Dateline. Glad justice has been served.

Trump could barely get any laws passed.

You are arguing a straw man. I never said we should ignore safety, I said safety wasn’t number 1.

If safety was number 1, we’d all refuse to drive to work.

I mean... wouldn't this headline lead me to believe that I should call MarySue up and congratulate her on her son having been found?

Which would be inappropriate, as it was his dead body that was found, and my condolences that should have been offered?

Well they did mention the wife slaying, so there is that.

Where jurisdictions end is a bit of a tricky question, that in many cases in terms of online content is a bit murky at the edges.

From the Australian context, all the cases have been against big multinationals that have local subsidiaries, actively engage users based on geography (i.e. trending in Australia), have servers in Australia and actively court both Australian users and advertisers. Twitter, pending details of how much it has cut back under Musk, hits pretty much all of these, so in this context it's not so much as the content just being available, but instead the company clearly operating in Australia.

On the other hand, the US has at times taken a pretty extreme view of where their jurisdiction extends to i.e. if your Australian based online shop ships 1 item to the US, you are under US law.

Publishing this internationally is a tricky business, and while online business got away with a couple of decades of just pretending that laws don't matter to them, the reality is that if you are going to operate in a country/jurisdiction, you need to follow their laws or risk legal consequences, especially if they then go put themselves in the jurisdiction in person.

If the executives are worried about this, as far as I'm aware most courts are happy to count basic region IP blocking as sufficient as making the effort to not be operating in country.

I've 100% seen this exact story on law and order SVU.

Except in their version the cops got it right obviously.

WHY do these news stories consistently fail to make clear whether or not, AT THE TIME OF THE CRIME, these pple are or are not employed as LEOs? This one says "former deputy marshall" in para 2 although later it becomes clear that he was a serving officer at the time. At no point does the story clarify when exactly he became a former. Just...why not make this simple information clear?

Iirc it was revealed that Elon was upset his tweets weren’t showing on feeds anymore (due to high # of blocks and unfollows) that he forced the engineers to change the algorithm.

This means controversial accounts with high block counts are no longer being hidden by the algorithm and possibly even boosted.

People get nasty over money/investments. I had a friend in jail for 12 months, he was doing a in-jail rehab program. You know which addiction was the hardest to kick there, and the one they generally had the least success in? Dealing/money, not even a drug. Apparently they got more than twice the amount of people successfully rehabbed (Well, not returning to jail) on drugs compared to dealers.

I don't know, the worst stuff I've witnessed has always been over money. It grabs certain people for whatever reason, more so than many other things.

> A defensive driving course would make everyone safer than OSHA 10.

Do you have a stat for this, or are you just continuing to minimize the efforts of workplace safety? There's a big difference between idiots on the road you have little to no control over, and say, an exposed pump with moving parts that has been reported 3 times to management until Phil got too close and it pulled his hand in and now they finally put a metal shield over the damn thing. Although I guess Phil's wasn't a fatality so he doesn't count against workplace safety...

Makes you wonder if those silly plots were closer to reality than we thought.

And that unless the fines and punishments are high enough, big companies will flaunt them anyway and eat the cost

Okay great. You're a citizen in the year 1923 who had just read a small blurb in your local newspaper about some war going on overseas in some country you've never visited. Not only is your interpretation of what's taking place limited in scope, it's also potentially inaccurate, and much more delayed to update you with current events. What is your plan to get your message out to the world?

Like source code from non-public servers or source code like pressing F12?
