US citizens have an unequivocal right to re-enter the county regardless of where they have been, how they returned, how long they were gone, or what they were doing. This was already determined by the Supreme Court in United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898).

He’s a US Citizen. Legally they cannot deny him entry into the country.

Central to these protections is the absolute right of a U.S. citizen to return to their country. This right is unequivocal. No matter where an individual has traveled, the duration of their absence, or their personal or legal background, a U.S. citizen cannot be denied entry into the United States. This principle is supported by both statutory and constitutional law. A landmark Supreme Court case, United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), established that citizenship includes the right to reenter the nation. Unlike lawful permanent residents or visa holders, U.S. citizens are exempt from admissibility criteria. Consequently, even if a U.S. citizen lacks proper documentation or is subject to further questioning, the government is obligated to permit their entry once their citizenship is verified.

It’s damn close…

Original PS2 dimensions:
78.7 × 302.3 × 182.9 mm
3.1 × 11.9 × 7.2 in

ASUS RTX 5090 Astral dimensions:
357.6 x 149.3 x 76 mm
14.1 x 5.9 x 3 inch

So that is 4351cm³ for the PS2 versus 4057.6cm³ for the RTX 5090.

For a little bit. They figured it’s a one-off… And so far they e been correct.

But every bullshit denial could mean another.

How is it different than what advertisers or social media companies do?

That didn’t address my point.

Is public video recording considered a 4th amendment violation?

Because that’s what the Flock cameras do.

The rest of what makes Flock… is processing after the fact. And that analysis is effectively the same as what any social media or advertising company does when they build a profile on you. Actually basically any tech company nowadays is making a profile for you and attaching it to whatever data they can get their hands on, and usually selling access to their data on you as well. And those are clearly considered legal. Whether they should be is a different topic.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Not sure public video recording amounts to a search and seizure. Is there case precedent establishing specifically that?

Welcome to the origins of the colonies. It’s almost like there is a strong through line somehow even after 300+ years.

Same with hard drugs, and the associated crime… they’re a symptom, not the root cause. Hard drugs are used to escape reality. If there’s fewer reasons to escape, usage drops dramatically.

Do you happen to live in the area the company is headquartered? Because I can’t imagine them flying a representative out for every ticket being contested.

I totally thought it was the same dude. Not very good marketing there to differentiate from his crackhead brother.

Most states don’t actually have that many people. Most of the 300M+ Americans live in the same handful of cities.

Their corporate donors don’t want them to. And they want those donors happy for two reasons, so they can get rich via kickbacks and insider info because Congress is apparently exempt from insider trading, and when they leave office they get a nice cushy lobbying job using the connections they made in office to deal.

Many modern motherboards have that built in to install the manufacturer’s software, which in turn would download the latest BIOS drivers, etc. for that board.

Usually enabled by default, and after installing once, the setting in the BIOS gets disabled so it doesn’t prompt to reinstall on every boot.

My brand new Asrock X870E board I installed last week did that.

Generally they haven’t needed to. For most of the situations where Starlink really shines like rural connections, the alternatives are objectively a lot worse. And the other common situation is to avoid a regional monopoly which is still like 90% of the US.

Starlink basically sells itself, even with Elon at the helm.

The Air Force is the military branch with minimum requirements for mental capabilities, even if not officially. Pilots and aircraft mechanics are not front line fodder. And until the Space Force came along, they handled most of the stuff related to managing space as well.

The Army and Marines will basically take anyone breathing. And the Navy is a bit of a mix, just gotta be a little bit gay since you’re gonna be stuck on a boat for months at a time with a bunch of seamen.

Is it really surprising that it’s the Air Force that would have the servicemen that can read, comprehend, and act against all this obvious bullshit?

He also Google searched how to make the fsd more aggressive.

I don’t have any experience with FSD specifically, but I used to have a Model 3 with Enhanced Autopilot before I traded in that Nazimobile.

In traffic, Autopilot would definitely leave more space and act “safer” than most other drivers on the road around me. Regularly resulting in people cutting me off, squeezing into spaces they shouldn’t be, etc.

Trying to figure out how to make the car act more like the other traffic is something nearly every Tesla driver has looked into at some point.

From the beginning, investigators have focused on how Butler was using Tesla’s system. Butler told officials and paramedics that he was working as a DoorDash driver and that the car was in FSD mode before he “passed out” while changing music on the car’s touchscreen, according to the affidavit. The affidavit said tests found no alcohol or drugs in his system.

The affidavit says Butler manually pressed the accelerator pedal several times in the neighborhood where the crash occurred, “overriding the default FSD speed.” At one point, the car reached 73 miles per hour on the residential street – more than twice the posted limit. The affidavit also notes there was no brake pedal input recorded in the final minute before the crash.

Tesla executives publicly disputed Butler’s version of events. On social media, they said the driver pressed the accelerator pedal down and kept it pressed even after the crash. The company says FSD doesn’t make its cars self-driving and that drivers still have to stay alert and be ready to step in.

So… A few things.

1. He passed out while changing music?

2. He did not attempt to brake at all and kept pressing the accelerator after the crash.

3. So he still was passed out after crashing into a house at 70+ mph?

That’s what he’s saying happened, according to his affidavit, and the data from the vehicle. So the exact same thing would have happened in any other vehicle as well, FSD had little impact on the crash. He passed out pressing the accelerator pedal and crashed into a hosw when the road ended. So maybe without FSD it wouldn’t have driven as straight, instead veering off to the side of the road, still at 70+ mph. Keeping in mind that manually steering the wheel with a modicum of force disengages FSD, so there was little to no force on the wheel.

They failed only because the concept of personal computers wasn’t really a thing yet. Computers were basically mainframes, maybe with a remote terminal. With that basis to work from, it’s harder to make the jump to PCs, tablets, and smartphones.

But if you have a constellation of thousands of LEO communications satellites to leverage…
