    I don't think those systems can/should be updated using apt though.

    And from what I can see those courts have shown to be pretty ineffective against crimes like sexual assault.

    I don't believe anyone wants to create a new legal system, but the reality is the vast majority of sexual assault cases aren't resolved in court due to existing social issues. Thes…

    Many states aren't outright banning it, but making filming from "too close" a form of interference.

    Law enforcement agencies in the US are infamous for stealing billions of dollars of cash from innocent people using civil asset forfeiture.

    The thing is you’ve also been quite aggressive toward other people on twitter. Making yourself out to be a victim is definitely en vogue.

    And in the years since we have killed millions of people in Vietnam and hundreds of thousands in the Middle East and we’re currently bankrolling what many people consider to be a g…

    Military violence can make the world more unstable too. Especially when many civilians are killed. There is no way to actually determine if military action taken by the US has been…

    The docs.rs part is actually included in the new website: https://ocaml.org/packages I've been using ocaml-lsp-server with nvim-lspconfig and it's been great, I'm wondering what is…

    Again, never said it was right, just that theft is deeply embedded in many facets of American society.

    I’m not trying to justify any of it, just pointing out that theft is a completely accepted part of culture in the US. Don’t get me started on civil forfeiture…

    I tend to think what you’re reacting to is just history moving forward. Unfortunately not everyone will be remembered forever.

    70k per year is less than we spend keeping someone in prison, which is where many people believe we should put drug addicts. The truth is it’s not about the money, people just don’…
