  • self employed handyman pretrial release for a pending child-solicitation case

    Jan 6th aside, The Dude works in people's homes, and there's at least enough evidence to change him with solicitation of a child.

    Everybody has the right of innocent until proven guilty, but surely scary for any of his clients. Hope none of them have kids in the house.

  • Tabloid CEO Says He Killed Negative Stories on Trump Affairs

    Jump

  • It's not criminal for a publication to bury or promote stories, but the fact that they are admitting to just making shit up with malicious intent opens up all sorts of lawsuits.

    I bet that there's a bunch of civil lawyers all chubbed up right now thinking about all of the libel and fraud cases that they can bring.

    The other thing to remember is that the case is not about influencing elections. It's about cooking the books to hide the payouts. They are only using this guy to show that Cohen was the bag man for funneling payments in this scheme. This refutes Trumps claim that all payments were for legal services.

  • I am old enough to remember when they only had manual screw drivers and thicker wood screws that needed to be pre-drilled and lubed with soap.

    Go buy a modern "cheap" wood screw. Not a deck screw. An actual wood screw. Pre-drill the correct size hole, including the countersink, and use the correct size manual Phillips screwdriver. You will never strip out the screws.

    Now take a 500 RPM impact driver that has almost enough torque to remove lug nuts, a worn or wrong size bit, and a thin shank screw that was only designed to hold down deck boards and the slightest slip or misalignment and have this photo.

    We all do it because it is fast/easy. Just understand that you are doing things the convenient way instead of the right way, and you have to expect the stuff to sometimes not work aa advertised because of it.

  • This flaw is not really that bad because it requires the attacker to already have total and complete control over the system already. For example, if they were able to steal the root password.

    This flaw just makes it easier for the attacker to hide and harder to evict them.

  • Even Nvidia video works out of the box without any additional drivers.

    The thing with Nvidia is that although the default drivers work, they are more generic and don't take advantage of all of the features and performance of recent cards. Most people would want to load the proprietary drivers from Nvidia to take full advantage of the card.

    Linux would normally include the better drivers, but Nvidia keeps them under a software license that prevents Linux distributions from bundling them.

    Even with this, Ubuntu includes a tool that will download and install these drivers that they can't

  • Can I pre-install Ubuntu on an SSD?

  • You don't need any internet connection to install Ubuntu. Just use the normal install, not minimal network installer. Install from a USB stick.

    Also, there's no requirement for a wire either. If that were the case, you could never install on any modern laptop.

    You would need some sort of functioning network to upgrade packages or install anything not in the base image, but this would all be after installation when you have a working OS and wired or wireless won't matter.
