  • It doesn’t matter. These tattoos weren’t examined in court prior to his illegal deportation. The deportation is still illegal and the only way to make things right is to bring him back to the US.

    And release him for that matter. Even if through some strange twist of fate trump isn’t a complete asshole and lying about this, having tattoos isn’t a crime.

    Prove in court that he broke laws that would subject him to deportation.

    Even if, through some strange twist of fate, trump proves he’s broken a law, it had better be a big one. As far as I’m concerned, kidnapping a person and jailing them in a country they fled from and requested asylum from is the most terroristic thing imaginable. What crime is worse than what trump just did to him?



  • HDMI has an Ethernet channel builtin to it. This was designed along with the audio return channel and the remote channel to make it so you only need one cable between your smart devices.

    Its lovely really, other than the privacy concerns. USB-c takes it one step further and let’s you power devices over the data cable. So you might really only need one cable to link all your devices.

    I’ve been worried about the data over HDMI standard for a while, but I don’t think many devices implement it. At some point there probably should be a revision to the standards (if there isn’t one already) to require pairing permissions in the next version. Otherwise manufacturers will eventually start using this back channel to spy on customers, even when you don’t enable WiFi on the television.


  • Its funny, in a sad kind if way, how slow the courts are 99% of the time. But now that someone wants to invoke obscure laws that deport people without a trail, apparently the court is way too hasty to deny that privilege?

    Actually: Just fucking tell me why tren de aragua, a name I can’t spell and have never heard of, is such a threat that you can’t house their people in existing US prisons?

    You don’t deport criminals. We never have deported criminals. We jail them until they’re either sentenced and imprisoned, or an agreement is made to extradite them so they can be tried by their native country, or released with the understanding they can’t come back to America.

    This farcical bullshit should be called out and everyone in congress should be up their own ass trying to fix this problem. Trump is wrecking the economy and terrorising both citizens and non-citizens.


  • I think I know what the next entry in the playbook is. After a suitable amount of protests they will free Mr. García, but not allow him to come back to the United States. That still ruins his life because his family is in the US, so it’s right up their alley on cruetly.

    This will pacify a percentage of the protestors who will be tired and happy for a small win. It will “pacify” the courts, if they’re not already in on this play. The news will also step back because the see the story as concluded.

    We need to be demanding justice for all 200 deportees. I know they latched on to Mr. García because he’s innocent, but for all we know they are all innocent. We need to stay mad until they’ve all had a day in court.

    Honestly nothing short of an impeachment and conviction of this administration will restore my faith in this countries justice system.

    The excuse for pulling this guy, and everyone in this companies security clearance is because he didn’t find evidence the 2020 election was stolen?

    Security clearances aren’t cheap. Someone in the press should be asking the trump regime how this helps America.


  • We can sue Trump to stop him from doing stuff! This is a great idea. It should only take a few years before the courts resolve these issues and get things back on track!

    Its about time to figure out how to withhold funding from the government. Don’t let your tax dollars be used to pay for foreign prisons.

    Work stoppage is good, but things don’t matter to them while they still get 1/3rd of your paycheck every two weeks to fund their shit.

    I bet they did simple math and realized most actual taxpayers are getting refunds. If you don’t want to audit megacorps then laying off all of IRS staff doesn’t matter. The money will keep coming in and they can always slow pay the refunds if they like.

    If he can arrest and deport anyone, even those that have broken no laws, then why can’t we arrest and deport him?

    If the laws don’t matter anymore then just say it. If it’d going to be a free-for-all then let’s at least be honest about it.


  • Remember in Batman where Batman went and grabbed a guy and dropped him in front of the courts? We need that, except instead of Batman we just need someone to ask El Salvador to release this guy, then bring him back to the us, and do what the trump administration will not do.

    After all, Trumps team says it’s in error and the guy has done nothing wrong. Surely if he shows back up at customs he’ll be let into the country to get to his day in court, right?


  • People used to argue email can’t be fixed because it’s ubiquitous and there would never be a flag day where everyone changed to a new protocol.

    That has changed. Now 90% of email comes from a big 3 providers, gmail, Microsoft, whoever. They could implement protocol changes and everyone else would be forced to follow.

    The second thing is you could just add a v2 header and include some backword compatibilty.

    Things email is desperately missing: Attestable records. Anyone can append anything anywhere INA message. Breaking DKIM all the time.

    Rather than that they need to make the format append only. Each new part can add headers that are signed by the forwarding node but they can’t tocuh the original message.

    At that point you still wouldn’t know if you could trust the originating mailserver or mail agent, but you could at least be sure of who the originator was, and it allows you to establish trust based on that (with further things like deferred emails for untrusted senders using something like postgrey, but with better support due to trusting keys rather than domain addresses)

    The problem then becomes forcing the big three to implement changes that rock the boat for them.

    People have largely accepted spam as a fact of life on email and shifted conversations to less infested platforms.

    The other problem is the obvious one that no matter what technical solution you come up with it’ll be ruined in 24hrs by spammers.
