Yeah. Not very historic when inflation surpasses it. Better than nothing though!

I'm confused. I'm sure SCOTUS is annoyed at having to deal with so many cases from just 1 person. I'm annoyed at my job when 1 customer makes a lot of extra work for us. That's like, every damn day at most jobs, though.

They can decline to take cases which means that they are agreeing with the lower court rulings. The only other option is for law enforcement to not pursue charges against a felonious former president.

Only call the cops if you're 100% OK with anyone involved and around being killed. I.e. you're already under threat of death.

I'm going to get a priest to bless the rains down in America and that'll baptize the entire landmass. There, now everyone is "christian" and they should be OK with people being gay.

/s There's like 3 terrible ways this is an awful idea.

Hmm, you may be right. I can't find any specific results that say if this also applies to traffic stops. I read it as when you are detained and in court but there may be no legal difference.

To pull this off, the Raspberry Pi is programmed to act as a router. Any lookups that are associated with Google’s push service are redirected to a nonexistent IP and blocked from reaching your phone. When the mailbox door is opened and you place a phone inside, an ESP-32 is activated which sends a notification to the Pi that it’s okay to allow push notifications through.

I'm not well versed in networking, but this reads to me as it blocks and sends all notifications to the void and then while in the box the Pi allows new ones through.

The question then is do push notifications need an ACK and if they fail to receive one do they try again? I know cell carriers can tell when you're out of connection and can delay notifications and packets until you reconnect but this is slightly different.

What law allows cops to detain you for not answering irrelevant questions?

[–] Neato@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago (3 children)

With how this routes push notifications to an invalid IP, will they be resent or are they lost? When you put your phone is the box will you get all your missed notifications or just ones coming in while it's in the box?

Also your guests will think their phone is broken or your Wi-Fi is down.

You don't have to cooperate. You just have to follow lawful orders. Making conversation isn't one.

Yeah. Ray tracing has always seemed like an expensive fad to chase. I'd rather have better textures and animations.

Musk HATES hates public transportation. Which is weird because he's in a private jet when he travels anyways.
