@dalias@CadeTheCat I think basically all the places I’ve lived as an adult fell under 2. South Carolina and Virginia have “package stores,” private businesses licensed to sell liquor. There was a restaurant when I was in Goose Creek, SC that sold mini bottles because there was some weird loophole with the state’s liquor laws. New Hampshire runs its own liquor stores—no private stores sell liquor there.
@dalias@hipsterelectron yeah, cargo chaining out into the horizon and saying, “all the light touches, you must *directly* trust” is no way to do things.
@inthehands@mothninja@pooserville they’re so sad. Like, “oh, sweetie, those policy positions are downstream of the racism, you really don’t know what’s going on here, do you?”
@inthehands Time seems to agree substantially. “That said, the impact is similar. By taking the floor for such an extended period, Booker is disrupting the normal functioning of the Senate, drawing attention to what he and many of his Democratic colleagues view as a dangerous political climate under Trump’s leadership.” https://time.com/7273417/cory-booker-filibuster-speech-senate/
@inthehands but he’s not actually filibustering anything?! Don’t get me wrong, these things need to be said and as prominently as possible, but normally this kind of display was used to hold up legislation or nominations. (Normal died a long time ago, and this particular bit of normal was strangled by McConnell because he wanted to hold up genuinely popular bills and nominations indefinitely.)
@dalias@whitequark@ryanc@filippo this is apparently exactly what happened to all previous expansions to copyright that vested in the creating individuals. “You have new rights according to the government; isn’t that nice? Sign them over to us or we’ll make you starve [now, rather than later].”
@ryanc oh noes. I forgot about that whole thing for a minute and thought you were just goofing around. Spent a minute or two tossing around whether I thought it constituted any kind of weakness on the part of a server using one and decided “probably not” especially given how some keys were generated in the last with an eye towards having fewer up bits to reduce processing time.
@ryanc@b0rk@jackie the only reason I’ve had to get a graphical session on my remote development machine in recent memory. I really should learn how to use vimdiff.
