IsambardPrinceThe EU has made the best changes to the iPhone, not Apple.Apr 25 03:51
IsambardPrinceApple has given their users a parade of truly ridiculous cords that change every 5 years or so and don't work with anything else and cost more money because they have to be licensed from Apple.Apr 25 03:51
IsambardPrinceThe EU forcing Apple to use USB-C was the biggest improvement the iPhone ever got.Apr 25 03:51
IsambardPrinceUser-replaceable batteries are next.Apr 25 03:51
MinceRdon't forget sort of opening up the platform :>Apr 25 03:52
IsambardPrinceThe idea with the cords was, Apple would just change them on you all the time after you bought like half a dozen of them where Apple tacked on $2-3 each for licensing. Then when you had the cords, they would just change the damn cord againApr 25 03:53
MinceRtheir hostages loved itApr 25 03:54
IsambardPrinceThe one with like 30 pins was by far their worst.Apr 25 03:54
MinceRi think the EU should have just let them keep on suckingApr 25 03:55
MinceRit's what their hostages wantApr 25 03:55
MinceRand reasonable people don't want to have anything to do with crApple's crap anywayApr 25 03:55
IsambardPrinceMinceR: It wasn't to protect people who buy Apple, it was to protect the planet from all their fucking e-waste.Apr 25 03:56
MinceRbanning crApple products from the EU might have achieved more of thatApr 25 03:56
IsambardPrinceThe idea was all these cables would go into the trash every 5 years and so would a couple of phones.Apr 25 03:57
IsambardPrinceAnd the EU figured standardize a cable, make it so the user can repair it.Apr 25 03:57
IsambardPrinceMaybe the user keeps the phone for 10 years.Apr 25 03:57
MinceRi doubt that a retarded simpleton who is obsessed with the shiny would keep the alleged phone for anywhere near thatApr 25 04:00
IsambardPrinceMinceR: In one episode of Stargate SG-1 in an alternate timeline, the Aschen turn Jupiter into a small star. Apr 25 04:05
IsambardPrinceBut as far as we know, you'd need at least 13 times the mass of Jupiter to make even a brown dwarf possible.Apr 25 04:05
IsambardPrinceEven if you somehow merged Saturn with it, you'd have 1.3 Jupiters worth of mass.Apr 25 04:06
MinceRmaybe they gated some other object into it from further awayApr 25 04:06
IsambardPrinceLike what?Apr 25 04:06
IsambardPrinceWhat would fit through a gate that would add enough mass to turn Jupiter into a star?Apr 25 04:06
MinceRlike a brown dwarfApr 25 04:07
MinceRthough they'd have to use some insanely big supergate for it, unless they can distort the star temporarilyApr 25 04:07
IsambardPrinceThe Aschen didn't even know how to use the Stargate other than dialing other very close ones that they already knew about.Apr 25 04:08
IsambardPrinceThat puts them at "they never even figured out the DHD".Apr 25 04:08
MinceRthat was before they struck a deal with the humans of EarthApr 25 04:09
IsambardPrinceBecause the DHD network handles stellar drift updates.Apr 25 04:09
MinceRand it's possible that there were no DHDs in their neck of spaceApr 25 04:09
IsambardPrinceYeah, so the Aschen aren't going to be a threat as long as they can't figure out how to get out of their local gate system.Apr 25 04:09
IsambardPrinceWhich might only be a handful of planets that are no further away than Abydos was from Earth.Apr 25 04:10
IsambardPrinceThe gates work without a DHD, but without correlative updates, even an address that someone wrote down on something will only work for several thousand years.Apr 25 04:10
IsambardPrinceRemember the gate on Earth shook when manually dialing Abydos that way.Apr 25 04:11
MinceRthey may have figured it out eventually on their ownApr 25 04:11
IsambardPrinceHopefully they were stupid enough to dial the black hole planet from their home planet.Apr 25 04:11
IsambardPrinceThat would set them back a while.Apr 25 04:12
IsambardPrinceWe never did hear from them again after "2001"Apr 25 04:12
admfubarwhat is the Norse equivalent of "banzai"?? https://futurism.com/advanced-transport/norway-autonomous-busesApr 25 04:12
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-futurism.com | Norway Approves Autonomous Buses for Public RoadsApr 25 04:12
IsambardPrinceMinceR: Earth almost got spaghettified and sucked through an incoming wormhole due to the black hole.Apr 25 04:13
IsambardPrincePresumably an active outgoing wormhole would be much worse.Apr 25 04:13
IsambardPrinceBecause the gate is set up to try to accept things through the wormhole that way.Apr 25 04:13
IsambardPrinceSo you'd need a gate big enough to accept entire large planets.Apr 25 04:15
IsambardPrinceAnd you'd need to have the planet go through the gate, which might not be a problem if you can construct a gate like that.Apr 25 04:15
IsambardPrinceBut then the collision would be a problem.Apr 25 04:16
IsambardPrinceBecause let's say you plant this gate in the orbital path of a planet and then activate the gates at both ends, and then the thing comes out the other side with that amount of inertia from its former orbit in its home solar system.Apr 25 04:16
IsambardPrinceThat's too fast.Apr 25 04:16
IsambardPrinceYou would throw Jupiter out of its current stable orbit to go god knows where, probably out of the solar system.Apr 25 04:17
IsambardPrinceAnd the effects on Earth long term would be devastating without Jupiter where it is now.Apr 25 04:17
MinceRas would be the effects of having a second star where jupiter is nowApr 25 04:18
IsambardPrinceBecause it's a gravitational vacuum for asteroids that might otherwise frequently collide with the Earth.Apr 25 04:18

MinceRit's also possible that after the humans of Earth show the Aschen how to use the stargates better, they also got a deal with someone else, and the whole starmaking tech is theirsApr 25 04:19

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR3]: People who hurt small animals make you wonder what else they've done to a small animal.Apr 25 22:01
IsambardPrinceGonad's grandson tortured animals, and he raped his two younger sisters.Apr 25 22:02
IsambardPrinceThey sent him to Juvenile Hall for that.Apr 25 22:02
IsambardPrinceBut when he turned 18 they expunged his criminal records.Apr 25 22:02
IsambardPrinceThen he was charged with rape as an adult but was acquitted by a jury that never got to hear how he was a twisted little fuck that hurt animals and committed incest rape.Apr 25 22:02
schestowitz[TR3]dissect animalsApr 25 22:03
schestowitz[TR3]breaks legs of animalsApr 25 22:03
schestowitz[TR3]abuse humansApr 25 22:03
IsambardPrinceIndiana has a law that hides what you did as a minor almost no matter how horrific it is.Apr 25 22:03
IsambardPrinceI think that law should be repealed and replaced with one that says misdemeanors are expunged when you turn 18 but for felonies you still have to ask the court.Apr 25 22:04
IsambardPrinceMost children commit minor offenses because they just don't have the sort of maturity society expects out of an adult. Apr 25 22:04
IsambardPrinceSo you punish them with that in mind and then the law forgets.Apr 25 22:05
IsambardPrinceBut what Trent did was not minor crimes.Apr 25 22:05
MinceRmost "adults" also don't have the sort of maturity people expect from an adultApr 25 22:05
IsambardPrinceTrue, but in the eyes of the law, people over 18 are held to a higher standard regardless.Apr 25 22:05
IsambardPrinceI'm not aware of any state that doesn't have juvenile courts.Apr 25 22:06
Goblinthe only issue I would have with that would be it could "encourage" offences on the basis that "it wont matter when I turn 18"Apr 25 22:06
IsambardPrinceI think in every state you can be charged as an adult in certain severe cases.Apr 25 22:06
IsambardPrince[16:06] <Goblin> the only issue I would have with that would be it could "encourage" offences on the basis that "it wont matter when I turn 18"Apr 25 22:06
Goblinand I make that opinion on being a Metropolitan Police officer for 15 years and dealing with many young offendersApr 25 22:07
IsambardPrinceEh, I did some stuff when I was a teenager.Apr 25 22:07
IsambardPrinceBut it was petty.Apr 25 22:07
IsambardPrinceWhen you punish the child, it really mostly just punishes the parents.Apr 25 22:07
IsambardPrinceWhen you impose fines and things like that, it's the parents who end up paying it.Apr 25 22:08
Goblin there are many petty offences comitted because of lack of maturity but I could see a situation where street savvy young people would use such a rule as a good reason to commit crimes.Apr 25 22:08
IsambardPrinceOne time I got caught doing something and it was my parents that ended up having to pay a $500 fine.Apr 25 22:08
IsambardPrinceWhere's the lesson there?Apr 25 22:09
IsambardPrinceIt's a bad lesson.Apr 25 22:09
IsambardPrinceYou do something wrong and your parents end up paying for it.Apr 25 22:09
GoblinI think maybe a compromise would be to ask the question, was the crime relevant to the job application etc that requires disclosure.  If not relevant then maybe a non-disclosure could be consideredApr 25 22:09
IsambardPrinceOther than the fine, they made me pick up litter.Apr 25 22:09
GoblinFor example, you apply to be a nurse and you have previous for graffiti/criminal damage.Apr 25 22:10
IsambardPrinceThe law doesn't work the same way in the US.Apr 25 22:10
IsambardPrinceThere's absolutely no reason to talk to the police in the US.Apr 25 22:10
IsambardPrinceYou shouldn't give them anything except your name and address.Apr 25 22:11
Goblintheres no reason to talk to police in the UK.Apr 25 22:11
IsambardPrinceAnd you're not going to plead your case to the police, because they have no power to decide the outcome, they arrested you and assigned a court date.Apr 25 22:11
GoblinWe have section 25 which obliges you to provide your details but only if an offense (that does not have a power of arrest) is committedApr 25 22:11
IsambardPrinceThere's no such thing as a police caution here, except maybe for speeding.Apr 25 22:11
Goblinsorry I should say committed or suspected.Apr 25 22:12
IsambardPrinceAnything the police learn will be used against you, but it will not help you.Apr 25 22:12
IsambardPrinceAnd they can even take what you say out of context or misinterpret it.Apr 25 22:12
Goblinbut I assume US police still have discretion?Apr 25 22:12
IsambardPrinceThey love people who make statements because their job is to turn it into a confession.Apr 25 22:12
IsambardPrinceThey steer it towards a confession, you might not realize that until it's too late.Apr 25 22:12
IsambardPrince[16:12] <Goblin> but I assume US police still have discretion?Apr 25 22:13
IsambardPrinceOnly on very small matters.Apr 25 22:13
IsambardPrinceLike whether you get a speeding ticket.Apr 25 22:13
Goblinthats a difference then between UK/US policeApr 25 22:13
IsambardPrinceIf they witness a crime, you're almost certainly going to be arrested.Apr 25 22:13
Goblinand that would be the same here unless there were exceptional circumstances.Apr 25 22:14
IsambardPrinceIf someone complains of a crime that they didn't see, they can't necessarily arrest you right away, but they can turn it over to the prosecutor.Apr 25 22:14
IsambardPrinceYou might get arrested next month.Apr 25 22:14
Goblinyeah that would be the same here.Apr 25 22:14
IsambardPrinceIt helps you a lot if the police didn't see it, as long as you shut the hell up.Apr 25 22:14
Goblinyeah and I would agree that applies here.Apr 25 22:15
IsambardPrinceThen it gets very murky. How many people did see the thing? What's their background? Is there other evidence? How credible are they if it goes to court?Apr 25 22:15
IsambardPrinceSo basically here's something that can happen.Apr 25 22:16
IsambardPrinceYour partner gets mad at you.Apr 25 22:16
Goblinalthough should the case go to court and no comments where made a court can draw inference if a accused then provides an explanation......well thats whats part of the special caution said to suspectsApr 25 22:16
IsambardPrinceThey go to the police and say you hit them.Apr 25 22:16
IsambardPrinceThe police did not see it. The partner has not a mark on them.Apr 25 22:16
IsambardPrinceThat's a very weak case, but you probably still get arrested because the police don't want to be sued.Apr 25 22:16
IsambardPrinceWhile they have you, they want you to fill out a statement and/or talk to them./Apr 25 22:17
IsambardPrinceYou don't do it.Apr 25 22:17
IsambardPrinceThe whole thing probably just falls apart.Apr 25 22:17
Goblinin cases of alleged domestic violence there are (or were - I left in 2014) there are extra measures in place.Apr 25 22:17
IsambardPrinceI had that happen to me once.Apr 25 22:17
IsambardPrinceThey went to the cops and said I hit them. There was no evidence.Apr 25 22:18
IsambardPrinceThe police came to my house, wanted me to fill out a statement.Apr 25 22:18
IsambardPrinceI didn't fill out a statement.Apr 25 22:18
IsambardPrinceThey got an arrest warrant anyway, I turned myself in and bailed out right away and lawyered up.Apr 25 22:18
IsambardPrinceThe case got dismissed.Apr 25 22:18
GoblinI think thats where is differs.....a US court can't draw inference from no comment?Apr 25 22:18
IsambardPrinceDuring Discovery, I found that the cop that was interviewing my ex was pressuring him into saying I raped him. My ex said that I never did that though.Apr 25 22:19
IsambardPrinceAnd the cop said "Just tell me he did and we can do something about that."Apr 25 22:19
IsambardPrinceThe cops went too far and that ended up hurting their case a lot.Apr 25 22:19
Goblinyeah discovery thats (from my poor understanding of US legal procedure) I assume is like when the UK CPS is considering the case....by the time disclosure is given the case is already going to courtApr 25 22:20
IsambardPrinceThey were trying to make it "more horrible", the charges, to save a case that was not going anywhere.Apr 25 22:20
IsambardPrinceThe police will absolutely manufacture more charges that never happened to try to gain leverage for the state.Apr 25 22:20
IsambardPrinceThey're a bunch of bastards.Apr 25 22:20
Goblinand the suspect when arrested at interview stage in the UK is not entitled to disclosure, thats the choice of the arresting/investigating officer.Apr 25 22:20
IsambardPrinceThey don't have to disclose all of the charges that are coming here.Apr 25 22:21
IsambardPrinceThey only have to disclose the charges that they arrested you for.Apr 25 22:21
IsambardPrinceIt doesn't mean there won't be more.Apr 25 22:21
Goblinits evidence in the UK.  theres no obligation pre-interview or interview to disclose the evidence they have.Apr 25 22:21
IsambardPrinceBasically between your arrest and arraignment, they'll add more charges maybe.Apr 25 22:22
IsambardPrinceYou'll know by the arraignment what's coming.Apr 25 22:22
IsambardPrinceDiscovery happens between the arraignment and the trial, at some point.Apr 25 22:22
IsambardPrinceUsually there's a status conference or two before the trial.Apr 25 22:22
IsambardPrinceThat's where the discovery happens.Apr 25 22:22
IsambardPrinceSince you have a right to a speedy trial, they sometimes want you to waive speedy because the prosecutor is swamped.Apr 25 22:23
IsambardPrinceYou should never waive speedy.Apr 25 22:23
IsambardPrinceBecause it means that the prosecution will have less time to prepare and may go in there with a weaker case.Apr 25 22:23
IsambardPrinceYou're not there to do your enemies a huge favor.Apr 25 22:24
IsambardPrinceDon't ever waive speedy.Apr 25 22:24
IsambardPrinceSometimes the judge asks you to waive speedy because it's the court that's clogged up.Apr 25 22:24
IsambardPrinceStill, don't.Apr 25 22:25
IsambardPrinceIf they have too many cases they may have to drop some.Apr 25 22:25
IsambardPrinceIf yours is relatively unimportant, it might get dropped.Apr 25 22:25
GoblinI've never considered there being that huge a difference between the fundamentals of policing in the US/UK, seems like I was wrong.  I'd say on the whole, generally speaking the UK legal system is reasonably fair.Apr 25 22:25
IsambardPrinceOr they might offer a plea bargain that's incredibly lenient to get it out of the system.Apr 25 22:25
IsambardPrince[16:25] <Goblin> I've never considered there being that huge a difference between the fundamentals of policing in the US/UK, seems like I was wrong.  I'd say on the whole, generally speaking the UK legal system is reasonably fair.Apr 25 22:26
IsambardPrinceIt was ironic that in Being Human, the cop was a vampire.Apr 25 22:26
IsambardPrince"They can't come in unless you invite them in."Apr 25 22:26
IsambardPrinceOr a warrant, but usually they come out with no warrant and ask to come in.Apr 25 22:26
IsambardPrinceWhy do they do that? It's amazing how many people say yes when they shouldn't.Apr 25 22:27
Goblinyou see we don't need a warrant.Apr 25 22:27
GoblinSection 35 (I think) - If a person suspected of committing a criminal offense is reasonably believed to be in a premesis, then police can enter.Apr 25 22:28
Goblinalso...Apr 25 22:28
IsambardPrinceMost of the US Bill of Rights are there as a response to abuses committed by the former government. ;)Apr 25 22:28
IsambardPrinceGoblin: Harboring a fugitive is a crime, but they have to get a warrant or sit on the house and hope he comes out.Apr 25 22:28
GoblinIf a person is arrested, a person where they are reasonably believed to have been can also be entered/searchedApr 25 22:28
Goblinah the UK doesn't need that.Apr 25 22:29
IsambardPrinceSo unless they get a warrant or just sit there and get lucky and he comes out, then they have nothing.Apr 25 22:29
IsambardPrinceThey have to go tell a judge why they know he's in there, and get a warrant.Apr 25 22:29
IsambardPrinceIf they can't tell the judge why they're reasonably sure a fugitive is in the house then they can't just barge in.Apr 25 22:30
Goblinof course for no warrant to be required the officers would need reasonable belief that the suspect is in the house.Apr 25 22:30
IsambardPrinceYes, but in the US they need to get a judge to agree and sign a search warrant.Apr 25 22:30
Goblinthey couldnt just walk up and down a street entering properties (unless there was reason to believe they could be in all the houses)Apr 25 22:31
IsambardPrinceAnd if there's anything wrong with that warrant, legally, then it was an illegal search.Apr 25 22:31
IsambardPrinceAnd it can damage their case.Apr 25 22:31
Goblinyep that would stand in the UK as well.Apr 25 22:31
IsambardPrinceGoblin: ICE has been entering people's houses with "administrative warrants".Apr 25 22:32
Goblinbut then if the evidence was dodgy that they were in the house but they were actually in the house I don't know if that would damage the caseApr 25 22:32
IsambardPrinceThe result of that is now coming.Apr 25 22:32
IsambardPrinceThree ICE agents in Minnesota were charged with crimes for this.Apr 25 22:32
IsambardPrinceIncluding breaking and entering and kidnapping.Apr 25 22:32
IsambardPrinceWhich are both felonies.Apr 25 22:32
IsambardPrinceAdministrative warrants are not like judicial warrants. They're something an agency issues which can tell ICE officers to arrest someone if they encounter them.Apr 25 22:33
Goblinand I would hope if UK police acted in the same way they would also be charged with crimesApr 25 22:33
IsambardPrinceBut they do not authorize entering a house.Apr 25 22:33
IsambardPrinceGoblin: It gets worse.Apr 25 22:34
IsambardPrinceThe guy they took was a US citizen.Apr 25 22:34
IsambardPrinceThey drove him around for a while in his underwear for about three hours then dropped him back off at his house.Apr 25 22:34
IsambardPrinceIn the middle of winter.Apr 25 22:34

Goblinbut this is nothing to do with our US brothers and sisters......I still consider that the UK/US has a special relationship because its about the people not the President.Apr 25 22:37

MinceRlolApr 25 22:39
Goblinlike I say, this is all about a small few people in power not our countries people.Apr 25 22:40
GoblinI will always love the USA, Trump can't ruin that.Apr 25 22:40
MinceRand a lot of stupid, gullible, authoritarian people voting for stupid shit every chance they getApr 25 22:41
MinceRwhich then ends up applying to the reasonable people (a minority) who did not vote for itApr 25 22:41
Goblinvery true.Apr 25 22:42
Goblincan I just confirm for the record, I did not vote Brexit and I think by now most people realise what a mistake it was.Apr 25 22:53
Goblinand did not vote for Boris Johnson as for Farrage, in my opinion, he's absolutely awful.Apr 25 23:00
