Is that going to kill the need for the various modloaders?

Not quite, deletion from a hard drive also unflags the space the data was located at as being in use, so it will be overwritten eventually so long as the drive continues to have things written to it. Simply flagging something as being archived means that information will remain on the server indefinitely, the exact opposite of what is intended by a delete button.

This political violence is not a series of isolated incidents and does not emerge organically. Instead, it is a culmination of sophisticated, organized campaigns of targeted intimidation, radicalization, threats, and violence designed to silence opposing speech, limit political activity, change or direct policy outcomes, and prevent the functioning of a democratic society.

A quote directly from the order in question, oh how correct it is.

So, I do not believe that is a thing. Apparently there are some wind turbines with diesel generators attached somewhere, but it's not for that reason. Offshore wind seems to have them in case they get disconnected from the grid because they rely on some power to protect themselves from ocean air, and apparently a wind array in Scottland had some to keep the turbines from freezing over. Frankly though there just isn't room in the turbine's housing to keep a whole diesel engine, at least most of the time.

Hey hey, don't lump the satanists in with these pieces of shit, they are actually generally pretty cool in my experience.

Funny enough that actually wouldn't be more efficient of a compression algorithm, the size of the file reference would be at best exactly the same size as the image that is being referenced, just because any fewer bits would lead to duplicate reference locations.

I would guess there are two reasons: a) Alex Jones isn't making public appearances to my knowledge, and b) Jones has already been pretty well destroyed by the legal system.

Wasn't there a bit in that old political documentary/comedy Yes Minister about how a mandatory ID scheme was one of the most politically suicidal things a politician could propose, much less actually attempt to implement?

It feels like everyone is focusing too hard on that one word: communist. To me it's very clear the sentiment behind what she said was that Trump is acting exactly like the dictatorial leaders of the communist nations that America has been fighting against and villainizing for the last 50 years: the USSR, north Korea, communist China, etc.

I have exactly one game and exactly one 2fa app that I would meaningfully miss out on switching to a dumb pbone, outside of those two things I would genuinely consider it.
