    I thought the main point of the tattletale laws was to avoid judicial review. An important part of that is to establish who has standing. If the law was enforced directly by the AG, then people could sue the office directly if they think the enforcement violated their rights. But since these laws are enforced by nosy neighbors, there is no one central body to sue to review it. They've essentially insulated these laws from ever having a judge rule they are invalid.

    Trust me, we have tried. The problem is that while there was never a PayPal account verified to that email address, somehow a foreign number is attached to it. Every time we have tried to start an account with that email, the verification ping goes to that number, even though the email is unverified. We haven't found a way to tell PayPal to disassociate that number, because we never had any account attached to it to begin with.

    What is someone squatted on your email, starting an unverified account attached to your email address with their phone number, but the fuckers at PayPal won't do a thing about it?

    Not really, all it requires is someone to produce a signed message with one of Satoshi's private keys, which can be easily verified with the public addresses on the blockchain. Whoever produced that message can be proven to possess that private key. Nothing short of that would be believable by the crypto nerds.

    If we presume that Satoshi understood that Bitcoin may be valuable one day and kept the keys private, that would mean that the signer really is Satoshi, or one of his associates or heirs Satoshi trusted wih access. Even if that person wasn't actually Satoshi, their word on who it is would be considered authoritative.

    Unless it's Craig. Fuck that guy. Nobody believes him.

    McDermott definitely knows why, he's just not telling.

    “I’m not in a position to go into the details on it so you can assume what you can assume,”

    16 international games per year is too many. 16 neutral-site games, with some International and some at those large college stadiums, would be awesome.

    Imagine Steelers-Eagles at Penn State, or Browns-Bengals at Ohio State.

    But obviously he did, enough people saw that and said "Yeah, That's my guy" that his net favorability rating is up 19 points. It's still negative, but the fact it went up at all is troubling.

    If this is the picture I am thinking of, he is really sliding into home and the throw is coming in late so the catcher is off the plate, out of the frame.

    He really didn't need to slide, but of course he would, because he is Pete Rose.

    Yes, and he got a lifetime ban for that, which is now over. There are other assholes in the Hall. They should let him in. It would thrill all those Cincinnati fans to be able to see that.

    The phrase “TRUMP TOO SMALL” stems from a memorable moment in the 2016 Republican presidential debates, during which Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., made a crude joke about the size of Trump’s hands. “And you know what they say about guys with small hands,” Rubio quipped.

    Biden’s campaign proposed that the first debate between the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees be held in late June and the second in September before early voting begins. Trump responded to the letter in an interview with Fox News digital, calling the proposed dates “fully acceptable to me” and joked about providing his own transportation.

    Hi all! I'll be visiting with my family soon. I go to San Jose/Santa Clara often for work, but this will be my first time in the area as a tourist in 20 years. Were have 3 days planned for San Francisco on the trip, from a hotel near SFO. We have a rental car, and are 5 people, so it may make sense to drive. The hotel isn't walkable to BART or Caltrain, so if we were going to take those into the city we'd have to park at the station anyway. (South San Francisco would probably be the closest station). I'm planning to park the car for the day and take the MUNI most places, since it's free for teens. Any suggestions on safe garages? I don't mind paying to make sure the car is secure. If there's a good garage around Union Station, that may be the best bet because we can get anywhere. But it might be nice to park closer to the Presidio for the day we do things there. Any suggestions? My coworkers who live in the Bay Area think I'm crazy to take a car into SF at all, but surely there are some safe places to park? We're a bunch of nerds, and will hit up the Exploratorium. (We have a fourth day planned at the Chabot Center and Berkeley, and other days further afield). Any other suggestions for nerdy things to see would be appreciated. (We already have the Wave Organ on the list....) Thanks!
