The last time there was a huge stink about Jizlaine Maxwell and P.Diddler getting a pardon Eric Adams had his corruption charges dropped. Now we get George Santos freed out of the blue.
Anybody else in the same situation as those two where they're just a corrupt as everybody else but are only getting punished because they rocked the boat?
 
WHO DA FUCK GON FEED THESE FITTY KEEDS?!

I don't know, but if they all came together to hire a local butcher they could get like 2 deep freezes worth from you.
This shit makes my heart sing. You think black fatigue is bad now, wait until the 5th news story about how these innocent yearning masses were unjustly arrested stealing Jordans to feed they keedz.

Yeah, that's unfortunately not surprising. Trump has done a 180 on several campaign promises and stances, and this seems to be one of them.

The President can't just ignore statutes.

It's not. The administration tried to ignore the law, and the courts slapped them down.

That's NHSTA. Backup cameras are required, which requires the stupid entertainment system. Drowsy driver detection is required in a few years. Some of it is that companies just increase the minimum skew's package and cost, most of it is that the safety regs. If NHSTA isn't gutted, we'll have the lane keep assist be required by 2030.
Because you're wrong and a retarded nigger, doesn't mean I have an ulterior motive. We're talking about the CHEAP cars going up in price, not my sick-ass Raptor.

The backup cameras only became necessary because of increasingly strict rollover safety rules ended up requiring massive A, B and C pillars. These, in combination with shorter cabins in pursuit of better aerodynamics (which can be blamed on the EPA and CAFE), have utterly destroyed visibility out of the rear of the car. When I learned to drive, I was taught to physically turn my head around and look through the rear and side windows to see where I was going. But now, as much as I hate to admit it, the backup cameras on most modern cars actually do have a better view of what's behind the car than you can get by physically turning around and looking out the rear window.

Media is calling it an "outage" and not an attack and insisting its contained or mitgated all while users have continued to complain about it for HOURS after.

The pundit claims, in the same breath, its not an attack but a failure of a primary DNS server. I truly cant overstate how fucking crazy one of those being compromised is, there is only 13 primary DNS nodes and I believe only 2 are in the US maybe more dont hold me to that but they make up the BACKBONE AND RIBS of the internet as a whole, they are built with massive amount of redundancy so if one "fails" there are others to take its spot with 0 downtime, these are called "hotsites". For this to have gone the way it did it could ALMOST only be a DDOS attack of absurdly huge proportions on the primary node for AWS DNS or possibly one of they key nodes itself. This is a seismic leap forward in offensive cyberwarefare and we genuinely dont have anything comparable, a 100,000 count bot farm is considered gargantuan for us on a state level, what happened to day represents hundreds of millions if not billions of bots to have strained a network of AWS size.

Hope to THE VERY LORD im wrong and being a faggot doomer but I worry we just witnessed the equivalent of what the Comanches did when the Texas Rangers showed up with 6 shot revolvers, when they had bows and arrows, it just wouldent even seem fair.

I can tell you haven't worked on DNS. While your worry about DNS is not wholly misplaced, this particular time, you are wrong, and are being a faggot doomer.
While there are nominally 13 root nodes to the DNS system, they are anycast, meaning multiple hosts sharing the same IP address, geographically distributed. There are not literally 13 critical computers holding up the Internet, it's dozens in actuality. When a request hits a root node, usually the one physically closest and least loaded answers first. The root nodes have been DDOSed before, and so far have managed to weather the storm, because of the distributed nature of DNS.

The root servers themselves don't actually handle a lot of traffic. They largely delegate lookup of .com, .net, .org, etc, to other clusters of DNS servers which are in turn, redundant and anycast like themselves. And those .com, .net, .org, .gay, etc. servers in turn delegate to the various domain registrars for domains like facebook.com, kiwifarms.net, wikipedia.org, or nigger.gay. In some cases, the registrars themselves delegate lookups for a registered domain to servers owned by the holder of that domain.

That delegation why only AWS broke today instead of also Google and Microsoft. At Amazon's scale, it makes sense to own and operate their own DNS servers, instead of hoping GoDaddy can handle the scale of traffic involved in AWS having so many customers as to be a 1/3 of the entire fucking Internet. If those servers have issues, well lol, good luck doing anything on AWS.

And if 1/3 of the Internet is down because everyone runs their infrastructure on the part of AWS that broke today, well, better go find something to do that does not depend on the broken 3rd of the Internet.
Had the entirety of DNS been down across the Internet, you would not have been able to log into the Kiwi Farms to doomsperg, and I would not have been able to log in to reply and call you a faggot.

These "sources" come out and say this exact sentence every few months. We're probably going to hear this exact same claim in February at this rate.

Doubt it. Trump usually only pardons questionable people who still backed him full throttle. Maybe Diddy’s people are trying to do that now.

For example
Michele Fiore
Trevor Milton
Paul Walczak
Todd and Julie Chrisley
Elliott Broidy

As a person who was a massive Halo fan as a kid (read the books and shit) watching all the Marvel, Disney, and GOT faggots cry about how their franchise has been ruined, they don't know how bad it could really be. Half Life fans should be happy the worst they got was a dumb retcon/multiple timeline game. Ed Gein would blush at the shit 343 did to Halo.

Halo 4 and everything after it doesn't exist.

it is so fucking funny to me that the only axis these people can interpret fiction on is how well it propagandizes for or against what they believe

it is such a self report about the way they interpret media that it doesn't even occur to them to ask questions like "is this enjoyable? does it have fun ideas?" and instead jump to whether they can perceive bigotry or criticism of classism in metaphors they're cherrypicking/making up

A really good book series I've been reading that manages to thread the needle of having a nazi allegory group without making it political is the Palladium Wars series. It is set in a solar system settled by a sublight generation ship so long ago that Earth is more of a myth and the people descended from those who settled the most habitable planet try and fail to conquer the whole system. It's got what it's like to be let out of a POW camp as former not-SS, it's got the post war and anti piracy operations of the Alliance navy, it's got a protagonist who used his mixed upbringing to do plainclothes intel on the streets of his mother's planet while part of the not-SS, it's got monomolecular edged kukris and power armor and a nice little buddy cop side plot going on between an alliance occupier and the Gretian cop she does patrols with.

It's a fucking lost art to just tell a story without trying to hamfist your political shit into it.

All you kiwis on the fence about guns and carrying should let this be a decider. They haven't even hit the end of the month on their last government bribe, and immediately jump to "WE GON KILL ALL DEEZ HARD WORKING YTS AND TAKE THEIR GROCERIES."

Jokes on those niggers, I don't eat processed sloppa so they won't even want my shit.

I'm curious to see what will get raided if niggers actually do try to loot grocery stores. Will it be vital staples, like grains, meats, vegetables, and dairy? Or will it be the snack aisle, the instant rice, and the liquor aisle?
