The data you just posted shows clearly the 20% increase. It was at 3.2% at the start of his presidency. As of about a month ago it was at 3.8%. That is a 20% increase. It is reflected int he chart you just posted (as you can see the uptick at the end there).
The official us government numbers as of a month ago. It was at 3.2% at the start of bidens career and was up to 3.8% as of the last time i checked. That is a 20% increase.
You might want to read the bill, the headline is completely inaccurate.
The bill doesnt limit speech, it is the exact opposite, it garuntees speech cant be limited in very specific ways.
After playing with it for just an hour i can say its great. responsive, clean ui, good fast refresh (you can even watch movies on it)...
Color is noticably muted but i knew that was a short coming going in. Overall im pretty happy. Only thing that remains to be seen is the battery life. But from what i read online its a solid 2+ days without backlight so im feeling hopreful
@LouisIngenthron Honestly only a lawyer would really know, if that is the case i think thats a pretty messed up part of our system then. A judge should at least review the merits superficially
@LouisIngenthron Generally speaking not showing up will work against you if they have even the slightest hint of a possible case.
But as a non-lawyer with only the vaguest of clues I have to beleive that when the case is as absurd as it is here that even then not showing up would wind up with a dismisal.
I say that because if you dont show you cant argue your case, but to any half-competent judge you wouldnt need to argue your case for them to know enough to dismiss it.
@georgetakei I dunno, 20% more unemployed since biden took office (last i checked a month ago anyway) doesnt sound all that "strong" to me.
@LouisIngenthron honestly id imagine if you didnt fold or lawyer up and just ignore such things in most cases nothing would happen. Once it got in front of a judge and you didnt show the judge would quickly recognize there is no case and dismiss it...
Maybe im a bit naive but that is probably how id play it. I mean they cant win a lawsuite at most they **might** win an injunction for me to take down the comment.. Good luck they just spent thousands to remove a comment. Then within 24 hours id have a bot net going with 100,000 comments of spam :)
@admitsWrongIfProven yea i dunno i didnt buy one too recently.. if they are usually that expensive than seems most of the sdcardson amazon are scams... that could be too.
@LouisIngenthron The thing iis even if you explicitly and knowingly lied that is still no libel or slander which has additional conditions... so even then the suit was pointless.
I would have loved to be a fly on that lawyers wall.
@LouisIngenthron Sounds fair and not at all libel/slander.
@LouisIngenthron You should link me to the amazon product in a DM so I definately will not leave 20 bad reviews.
@LouisIngenthron Over a god damn amazon review... what the fuck did you say!?
@LouisIngenthron Just getting filed in court at all is a serious enough threat.
@freemo Don't trust the reviews on Amazon. Recently had a seller sue me to take down a bad review. Amazon didn't give a shit.
So, they're openly allowing their reviews to be gamed by litigious scammers now.
@LouisIngenthron Was it just a threat or did it actually go to court? Thats bonkers!
@equalityisfairness You have probably been the least time consuming account on QOTO. You have never caused me even a moment of trouble. You feel free to start as many accounts as youd like :)
@spots1000 Ever single counterfit i have encountered has been sold online.
Id imagine in person in a store its fairly rare since they will stop the supply chain once discovered usually
@spots1000 Amazon almost always just refunds me and doesnt even ask me to send shit back.. its one reason why i use them for nearly everything at this point, that and the fast shipping.
