If they want to lock up Assange then they have to lock up Trump also... right?

The details and history kind of escape me, I'm no expert on Assange, but I think your perspective is a little skewed.

Personally I think Assange is a power tripping scumbag. He handed the 2016 election to Trump and perhaps I'm small minded and shallow but it's hard to ignore that.

That said, hiding in an embassy is not evidence of guilt, it's an acknowledgement that the US is incapable of giving him a fair trial. He kicked them in the nuts and they're not going to forget.

The suggestion that he should have a trial in Australia is non-sensical. He can't have a trial here because there's nothing to prosecute him for here. Australian courts are concerned with Australian law.

The influx and outflow converting donations to legal bills would normally be enough of a concern to send major donors and grassroots contributors running for the hills, but it’s having virtually no effect on Trump’s momentum toward securing the Republican 2024 nomination.

This. His supporters just don't care. Whatever it takes to beat the dems.

There are other cheaper boards with better specs.

If people think that an IPO means we're going to … push prices up, push the margins up, push down the feature sets, the only answer we can give is, watch us. Keep watching," he said. "Let's look at it in 15, 20 years' time."

What a fucking lame answer.

RasPi was cool at one time, but that time has long since passed.

It really has, for most uses there are better boards

Paywalled?

Regardless, I reject the premise.

UPS will lay off whomever they can. They don't terminate people according to political ideology.

I don't really know what you mean by that - vastly more dwellings than households.

Think through it logically, if you owned a house, paid for everything, why would you forego the $30k, $40k, or $50k rent? The answer is simply that you wouldn't.

As I said, I work in this space. There's no hidden cache of empty houses.

Aside from a few isolated cases of offshore investors it's not really a thing.

Do you have any data about investors leaving properties untenanted because it's "not worth the hassle"?

I'm an accountant. I've never seen or heard of an investor doing that. Your costs are similar whether or not the property is tenanted. If you're paying for or holding the house it doesn't make any sense not to rent it.

You could use pi-hole to block these for your entire network!

Morbidly fascinating.

I had thought the salt brine was a crude antiseptic, I hadn't realised it was intended to hurt. Perhaps both?

Note that the overseer who did the whipping in this case was terminated by the slaves owner, so while I'm sure this wasn't that uncommon, it wasn't the case for every slave.
