I think that "wipes out" here is referring to the lead that Trump had in the polls previously. All the states went from a clear lead for Trump over Biden, to basically even, with one exception showing a clear lead.

I think that it suggests a competitive race, rather than one side coasting to victory. It is hard to draw concrete conclusions still, but the clear lead is definitely gone

I believe it's tied to the ides of the restless dead.

The spirit should move on after death, but some spirits get stuck between worlds. Often it's related to the circumstances of their death. Maybe they had unfinished business, they died a particularly grousom death, or they were denied a proper burrial.

I think the primary defense is the decentralized nature of the application..

Moderators/admins can block and remove content on the instace(s) they control, but this does not impact the content of any other instance.

Effective censorship of the entire ecosystem would require control of many instances and defederation from those that are not deemed appropriate.

There is not really a way for the operator of one instance to control the moderation decisions of the operator(s) of any other instance.

Dbus attempts to provide a standardized system for inter process communication (IPC) without the complexity of managing individual connections between each and every process that needs to share certain types of data.

This is the normal way to begin a jury trial.

He's not admitting guilt, requiring the prosecutor to prove (beyond a reasonable doubt) to a jury that he's guilty of the charges.

If I understand correctly, NY has chosen to charge Murder 1 with a terrorism enhancement, which requires the state to prove claims about his mental state, intent, and motivation.

I assume that the defense is hoping to push for some sort of settlement latter in the pre-trial process, and/or to cast sufficient doubt over the specific elements of the charges brought

Based on what you wrote, sounds to me like she wants out.

I think that a healthy long term relationship will require some compromise from both partners. Over the course of a lifetime there will be things that two people don't agree on, sometimes very strongly. Being able to talk through those issues and work out an appropriate compromise is crucial to the longevity of the relationship.

If she's insistant that the shorts of issues you've described are deal breakers for her I think there are a few possible reasons:

• She wants out of the relationship and is using these issues as an excuse
• she's not really ready for a longterm, serious relationship
• The issues are more serious than you've described and she's not explaining her complaints in a way that makes clear to you what is really wrong

This is why you should make the label before drinking the wine

That may well be the point. Dell gets the head count reduction, improving the bottom line, without the headline about mass layoffs

Assuming that there really is significant cheating on Linux clients, this can just be the company saying that there are not enough users to make development of more robust anti-cheat cost effective.

This is basically the same argument that software and hardware vendors have used for decades for why they won't support Linux

I think they mean that she is taking the fall for the "unknown" person she "bought" the gun from.

Implying that she was holding the weapon for someone

From my memory of the time, I think it was a few things.

The ability to do 3d in games was new, and without a lot of experience in what made for "good gameplay" devs were trying new things and seeing what works. Similarly, if you go back even further into console and PC gaming history you can find some game that use what, looking back, would be considered terrible control layout and/or gameplay mechanics. Sometimes because the company just wanted to ship something, sometimes because best practices hadn't been established.

The ability to do 3d was new and the free roaming camera was an easy way to show off the systems capabilities. Especially for early first party games, there was a huge effort to show off how much more advanced the new console was compared to the competition. I can remember marketing that focused on showing that you could look all around these virtual worlds (Mario 64) or how awesome the graphics processor was by highlighting the parralax effect of the background images (Castlvania 4).

Controllers were also evolving at this time. The SNES and original PlayStation controllers just had a D-pad and like a half dozen buttons to control all your movement and actions. The addition of analog control sticks, and the N64's bizarre controller were really the first shot at having the variety and quantity of controls to make rapid changes of player perspective and actions feasible at the same time.

Combine all of that with some publishers just putting out blatant cash grabs, and you have a whole lot of new territory to map and a target audience that doesn't really even know what it wants yet.

I believe "local" refers to posts on the instance you're registered on, while "all" includes posts from federated instances

As I understand it, there are several laws that allow for imposing tarrifs, each with differing requirements for justification and how large the tariff can be.

The International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) is one that the administration has cited as the law granting the authority for many of the tariffs imposed by this administration.

The tarrifs imposed under IEEPA are the ones that the Supreme Court were addressing with this ruling. Basically saying that the law does not give the president as much authority as he claimed, making those terrifs illegal.

Tarrifs that the administration claims are authorized under different laws will have to be the subject of separate legal claims.

I usually start at a ratio of 30g coffee per 500g water, then you can adjust from there if you feel it didn't come out the way you like.

It is just a public statement of support. There are only consequences to the extent that people care about/respect the opinion and judgment of the person giving the endorsement.

In this case, it's valuable to RFK Jr in so far as individuals listening to Joe Rogan either think Joe has good insights into who should be president, or just want to be like him and will vote the way they think he will vote

Fountain pens are not a normal sight in US schools. I was an adult before I realized that they were a thing that still exist, and are even used.

That's the reality of public school teacher pay all over the country.

The national average is under $70k

That's the National Defense Sevice Medal

It is awarded for service during a time of war. It was awarded for periods that included the War on Terror, Vietnam, and Korea

I assume that they need them to be handed over through a legal process in order to be admissible in court.

It is generally not allowed to use illegally obtained evidence in court.

Yes, I know that it does happen, and people who can not afford effective legal representation get convinced
