Thats the level of terrorism we get here
@FalconMomot If he was crazy as argued then he wouldn't be in a right mind to make a decision about his defence?
just that his 6th amendment (right to representation and a trial) rights weren't violated when he was forbidden from firing his public defender and going pro se in order to prevent a mental illness mitigation defense from going forward at the last minute after he had previously consented
... I didn't appreciate how complex that was until just now
@JourneymanGeek SOmeone was saying the other day that Suddam may not have been a particularly great leader (you know, ethic cleansing and all) but at least he kept the radicals in line
when I have an airplane, it will be more like "hmm, I want to go to seattle today" and as long as there is no thunderstorm I'm there about 8 hours after deciding.
Problem I was having was a combination of unfamiliarity with SElinux settings for samba (and the need to set a security context) and trying to do it the gui way
And in that case, don't get the 6 plus because if it's the same size as a note, and I have a note on the desk right next to me, unless you have gigantic hands, you won't be able to use it single handedlty
@MichaelHampton I like our consumer laws here.. any technical product sold to private persons here must have 3 years of warranty (that includes phones)
and getting a subscription without a phone contract is the most popular choice, as it's always cheaper if you have the cash to buy the phone.. and then you can just switch providers whenever you want
been reading a bit lately about US and the telecom/telephone monopoly, and you guys have a long way to go :)
@JennyD so you'd think. friend of mine saw one trying to tow a 20' boat with one this past weekend. pottering along at 35kph trying to go over the small mountain range between the city and the coast.
@Magellan the car and its insurance are in alberta, where those types of things are shady to discriminate on, and usually discriminating on them is illegal.
@JennyD nice. pondering retirement properties on the dry side of the mountains with enough acreage for a horse or two. Both my wife and oldest daughter love horseback riding.
@Magellan You really should have two horses if possible, most of them don't do well without company... I keep mine at a boarding stable where he has good pasturage in the summer, a decent-sized winter pasture + good stable and a flock where he is happy and can play with friends.
@Magellan auto insurance here is... complicated. there is a "grid" having legal force, which specifies a rate ceiling based on the number of years with a license and the number of convictions and claims and stuff. And the facility association is the insurer of last resort, and it is not legally allowed to deny insurance, since insurance is legally required.
where i spent my summers growing up there was a big field with a herd of cows and about 5-7 horses. The horses and cows were never close to one another, they pretty much timeshared the best places
@Magellan we always have our ears to the ground. weren't you going to send me a resume?
anyway the facility association is complicated, and the general goal of insurers is to depopulate it insofar as possible, because (as far as I could ever tell) that is a public policy directive
@Magellan I think I'm only looking for security auditors right now but there is always the possibility we may start needing an operator for our product.
@faker that may be, but we're talking about an order of magnitude, on recent data alone.
the comparison is generally a poor one yes, and it's better to go in depth yes, but for a quick first-blush analysis without any reason to believe there is a confound, it's not a bad way of going about it.
