He could just as easily argue he was forced to give the password under duress and accidentally gave them the wrong password.

As such, its highly improper for them to have tried to take data from his phone without a warrant and try to argue he destroyed evidence when he has not been charged with a crime.

The motion also states that Tunick asked four times to speak with a lawyer and was denied each time.

Also highly illegal.

    He was also denied a lawyer 4 times. Fuck the police.

    if the US actually has laws that allows it to prosecute him in this scenario.

    Big if.

    Experts said the legal approach is unusual and may be the first time the law has been aimed at an operating system. "It's concerning – and sends the message that [GrapheneOS] is criminal by default," said Christophe Boutry, a cybersecurity and surveillance expert. Boutry and Bill Buddington, senior staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, both said they had not seen a similar case.

    Fuck all the way off. This man did nothing wrong during this interaction, its police that fucked up.

    Ah, that's kind of sad - but I guess given the reviews, not surprising. Glad they're at least making it so the game can continue to function (unlike other games..).

    Except that the tariffs that were placed on Nintendo's products were ruled unlawful and refunded (to Nintendo).

    Imagine that it was found a city tax was calculated incorrectly - you'd expect a restaurant to refund customers, not keep the extra sales tax for themselves.

    We have two sets of glass doors and one of them is missing the screen door (thanks previous owners) - any idea who might sell a replacement?

    From all of the ones I've found, they all seem to be double rollers where the top ones just push against the top - ours actually hang almost like a zipline (you can slightly see the wheel at the screw)

    I'd love to do this myself instead of replacing the entire door but cant actually seem to find someone selling a kit..

    Any ideas? The only other idea I have is to just use a retractable, but having an actual door would be ideal.

     

    Any wireless headphones people would recommend?

    I currently have a pair of Arctis 7Xs that I use the Xbox adapter with while dual booting windows - I'd like to find something that isn't so finicky and works with both OSes (mostly so I can boot into Windows less...) while also working over 2.4Ghz for low latency.

    Bonus points if you can also connect a phone other Bluetooth

     

    I’ve talked to several reporters, and quite a few news outlets have covered the story. Ars Technica wasn’t one of the ones that reached out to me, but I especially thought this piece from them was interesting (since taken down – here’s the archive link). They had some nice quotes from my blog post explaining what was going on. The problem is that these quotes were not written by me, never existed, and appear to be AI hallucinations themselves.

    Super disappointing for Arstechnica here.

    Like, how does that even happen?

     

    Federal prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, he confirmed on Sunday evening.

    Powell said the probe was the result of the Fed “setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of” President Donald Trump.

    Terrible precedent that will harm our economy's ability to recover from high unemployment or inflation.

    Powell's statement is worth a read

     

    Friday's reports that Electronic Arts planned to go private were publicly confirmed Monday morning. Silver Lake, Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF), and Jared Kushner's Affinity Partners will join together to pay an estimated $55 billion for the video game mega-publisher in a deal being described as the "largest all-cash sponsor take-private investment in history."

    Gross - guess I won't even wait for BF6 reviews to not buy the game.

    New Jersey PBS is expected to cease operations in July 2026 following WNET’s decision not to renew its agreement, the New Jersey Globe has learned.

    The decision comes after the federal government decided to cancel funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funded WNET, the parent company of THIRTEEN, the PBS New York affiliate.

    Unless they can find a new non-profit funding source, New Jersey could be left without a public television station next year.
