I don't think he can. If he somehow illegally forces the US Mint to stop making pennies, it doesn't solve the problem that no law allows stores to just round to the nearest 5 cents. Congress would need to pass that first.

It seems crazy to me too, but I tested it numerous times. Closing port 80 and 443 stopped the blocks, and re-opening them started the blocks again.

From several years of experiencing it in person. Datadome was the worst and most consistent. It stopped the moment I switched my webserver onto an exotic port number (above 10,000).

Datadome sent me captchas at every domain they firewalled. After correctly solving, I would always be completely blocked:

Here is a page listing some system requirements for Peertube. It says 4 cores and 4GB RAM for 1000 viewers, which some Raspberry Pi systems have.

Yes. However, hosting things from your home connection will make it difficult for you to visit many websites. Blocklists such as Datadome, Cloudflare, and F5 will give you endless captchas if they detect port 80 or port 443 open.

Calling yourself bisexual/pansexual would not be inaccurate. I think "Kinsey 2" or "Kinsey 1" might be good concise descriptions to use, but only you can decide what is best.

(The Kinsey scale is a model, and therefore imperfect, but useful.)

It's not a pump-n-dump this time. In my opinion, it's a laundered bribe. The 800k victims were an unintended benefit.

To those claiming ... that the election was not tampered with

I will agree that there was targeted voter suppression, targeted registration purges, and Russian propaganda. But all of this has been around for many elections. It's wrong that we have to live with this in the US, but it's already been challenged in court, largely unsuccessfully. So we do have to live with it, until it can be fixed by a legislature that actually works for the people.

Even if you could prove voting machine tampering sufficient to change the election, there's still the problem that 77 million voters chose catastrophe. You can't possibly prove that this was off by an order of magnitude. We have to face the reality that there is an excess of bad voters, and a shortage of good candidates.

Why would you blame them over people who voted for Trump?

There just weren't that many of them. I would guess less than a million, compared to 77 million who voted for catastrophe.

Make them do it. The US Marshals should have resisted also, as DOGE is illegal.
