Again, this depends on the state. In some states it’s a fine. In others it’s a misdemeanor and can carry jail time. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faithless_elector.

No, he can just order members of Congress to be executed until they pass the law he wants.

If Biden wins the election, but dies before the electoral college votes, it’s a free-for-all. The electoral college can vote for whoever they want.

This is unclear. Some states have laws that say that electors must vote for who they’re pledged to vote for.

Same. I’ve read that this is because that part of your brain isn’t functioning or something. I have no source. Just “I think I heard this once.”

It’s also in the The Cask of Amontillado. Great word, ejaculate.

Most people have already pointed it out, but I must say, I don’t recall the last time I ordered pizza and didn’t use a coupon.

Incognito mode keeps your browser history private, and that’s pretty much it. If you want more privacy, you’ll need to add Tracking Protection and maybe even browse through a Virtual Private Network (VPN) service. Incognito mode can’t.

I met a man from France who said that the French spoken in Montréal is “real French.” I was pretty shocked to hear that.

Ahh the halcyon days of downloading one song from a private FTP server with upload ratios, found by Lycos FTP search. Over a modem, natch, so it took about 50 minutes…and that’s when your mom didn’t kick you off the internet so she could make a call.

“Science cannot be used to prove evolution is true, but it can be used to prove it’s false.”

We had an IT person quit this year because we transitioned to fully remote after they closed down the office in December 2020. He couldn’t handle working from home.

It was specifically about the Christian God because all others were “obviously” incorrect. It’s terrible logic because it discounts:

1. God somehow doesn’t know you’re believing in him “just in case” rather than because of actual faith.
2. The wager implies that you should be an adherent of the religion that gets you the most stuff in the afterlife.

It does seem like the TL;DR of right wing Israelis is “Hitler was right, but his only problem was that he was killing us.”

I’ve read plausible explanations that when your company is a meme stock, you need the thing that makes it a meme to stay around lest the price fall to reasonable levels dictated by market demand.

In other words they gotta give him the money or else the fanbois will stop pumping up the price.

It will come down to the laws in your country and how much money you plan to spend on lawyers if your employer wants to force the issue.

Not sure it’s just anti-Biden but people do need to understand on matters like this, they need to mentally apply an asterisk that says “subject to approval by Congress.”

I’m learning French so I’m not the best person to ask.

My recollection is that this was something Evan Prodromou (an inventor of ActivityPub) was looking into. There does not seem to be a federated alternative.

They’re absolutely right. I don’t believe this.
