The Relish

The aesthetics are incredible. It's one of the best looking movies ever. But the plot's got some holes. It's fun and pretty but not great.

So I just finished reading the motion filed by Luigi's lawyer and it kind of sounds like this warning might be in response to that. One argument put forward is that the only evidence of an attempt to cause fear in a generalized population (justifying the terrorism charges) is actually information that the police themselves publicized. The lawyer argues that the only atmosphere of fear in the case was created by the police. So it seems the judge may want to remind officials that they are fucking this up by bragging about it so loudly.

Imagine being a person whose family member was killed by an immigrant or something similarly horrible. Imagine the government just shipping that guy off without a trial, without a chance to put the evidence on the table and show beyond a shadow of a doubt they killed your family member. Is that justice?

Yes, they often take the form of shields, seven pointed stars, and Punisher skulls. These things identify them as street-roaming gang bangers and armed thugs.

So idealistically (I know, there are regional, logistical, financial, and other challenges, but idealistically) the people on strike are actively pooling and distributing their resources to help the people who are put out worse by it. That hopefully sustains people long enough for the strike to win out and for people to return to work with their problems remedied.

Honestly, just about anything in the web application hosting vein. httpd, nginx, redis/memcached, varnish, etc. You could make an argument that MS-SQL outperforms Postgres sometimes, but in my book, the cost of entry isn't worth it and I've only ever used Postgres since I left an explicitly Microsoft shop many years ago.

It means if your abuser comes back to you and swears they've changed and they can totally be a part of your life again... You can tell them to fuck off forever because you can't forgive what they did to you. It means not feeling bad about that.

At least part of this is the decentralized/complied nature of a FOSS operating system. You don't get a command called grep because someone making design decisions about a complete system holistically decides that tool should be called grep. You get it because some random programmer in the world needed a way to find patterns in text so they wrote one and that guy called it grep and someone else saw utility in packaging that tool with an OS. It's a patchwork, and things like this are a culture of sorts.
