This is the same stupidity of the MegaUpload case. hand over the drives?
You’re assuming the blog is run from a personal device and not a host? You’re assuming the device has logs.
And you’re assuming that anything “found” out of context can be used as evidence.
And then there’s the whole issue of one side having evidence and the other not. At some point… we just :facepalm:.
Look, people get shot by cops… but, what, 99% of the time it’s justifiable. Disobeying a lawful order, running away, being stupid.
I don’t give a rats arse when a human gets shot being stupid.
Animals have no understanding of lawful orders.
And shooting on-aggressive animals is pathetic.
People who hurt animals should spend the rest of their lives waterboarded every hour. And when they finally die or commit suicide their body should be strung up in nature to feed the wiled animals.
hateboner for left-wing politicians and their associates.
Nope, thus the three small groups i mentions.
Outside of right to arms, and security/law, I tend to be all liberal.
You’re still leaning in the “this is absolutely proven” direction despite the lack of answers to several outstanding questions about the story.
The truthfulness has yet to be proven or disproven. And I made clear my thoughts on possibility explaining away most of those questions rationally multiple times.
and that a Post writer apparently didn’t consider the story credible enough to have his name attached to it.
Oh, about that. Maybe the writer was afraid of retribution?
From Democrats?
What makes you unable or unwilling to do the same with the Hunter Biden story?
The truthfulness has yet to be proven or disproven.
I didn’t make up my mind.
citation needed that he has materially supported foreign terrorists while serving as POTUS
Well, little-b-biden ordered military equips abandoned rather than destroyed, arming the taliban.
That’s material support.
H osting him gives the terrorists legitimacy.
Wasn’t that the claim used when trump had meetings with kim of North Korea?
And kim was nothing more than a blow hard dictator. Not a genocidal terrorist. One with nukes.
Though I should note that there was confirmation that at least some of the information in the dossier was legit
Did you read the linked article? I did. Notice nothing directly related to trump is specifically mentioned?
Rather it relates to conversations between foreign nationals. The dossier details about a dozen conversations between senior Russian officials and other Russian individuals.
The weighted headline is typical of all media that intentionally chooses a side in politics: left or right.
And meetings that the emails purport to have happened either didn’t happen or at least aren’t confirmed to have happened.
the dossier story got more play in mainstream press
More? It was 24/7 and the whole thing has been debunked when it come to trump.
I don’t recall Joe Biden effectively sitting on his hands while a pandemic surged through the country and killed hundreds of thousands of people.
Neither did trump. He worked to get the government in a position to create, and prefund, the fastest vaccination development in history. He removed all red tape from the process. And then his administration set up a system of distribution.
Joe Biden telling a militant white nationalist group to “stand back and stand by” before an election he claimed would be “rigged” and “fraudulent”.
No, he stood back and stood down and ignored every major thing that has happened in his presidency.
I sure as shit can’t think of any moment when Joe Biden referred to a large group of violent white supremacists marching in defense of a Confederate statue as “very fine people”.
Funny, trump didn’t either.
definitely can’t recollect Joe Biden claiming to have a plan to replace the Affordable Care Act after repealing it but never showing off that plan to anyone.
Nor did trump. He called for repeal and replace. He called in congress, those that creat the laws, to come up with something.
He lacks the balls needed to throw some metaphorical elbows and get shit done
No he rolls over and wags tail at every bill sent to him.

Kim Jong-Un no
Are you going to call out the genocides committed by China? Ukraine?
How about the Iranian purges that have been ongoing since 2014?
The latter, well the Obama administration made it’s biggest blunder in handing of $1bil cash bounty.
Not sure why you think that. I never stated such a case.

Not anything, and not left. And not mindlessly.
In reality, I’ll wait for the evidence but:
Anything that has even the slightest possibility of being true and is against the clintons or bidens, (and the far left progressives), there’s little doubt I’m begging for it to be true.
But I’ll wait for the evidence.

The actuality of the laptop’s contents has nothing to do with the lawsuit.
The truthfulness has yet to be proven or disproven.
And I honestly don’t care either way today. President biden has proven himself to work with terrorist governments in practice. Ukrain and Afghanistan.
My hold was always pissgate got 24-7 coverage and laptopgate was buried.
The primary news of this country ran story after story of full on made up nonsense for 5 years about trump and ran nothing factually negative, let alone equivalent conspiracy, about biden.
Even if the laptop emails are 100% true it doesn’t mean anything about the President in office today, easily the worst since carter.
So his kid made money from those genocidal terrorists? So he made money from foreigners. It was hardly different from any post WWII president.
Pay for play is normal; and I’m not really against it, just don’t support it.
My problem is who he chooses to play with.
You intentionally take it out of context.
I support the release (if legit), not how he got there.
But;
No, generally if it is abandoned with me i first run a boot and encrypt UNIX tool I wrote for that reason, then I pull the drive, take it apart, and do a manual wipe of the bare platters.
things are abandoned for a reason. Without knowing the reason it’s safer to just start over. Punish the memory with a full write MemTest, wipe all chip cache with CacKil…
I do the same even if it was abandoned after a repair. (Usually because they Scoff at the price they agreed to before).
I’m not interested in your files. And I don’t need a hole in my head for seeing something without clearance.
And I don’t/won’t resell computers with a disk drive
Installed anyway.
The NYP is far from right wing. It leans no more right than the NYT leans left.
Is said it was possible. And I’d wait for the evidence. I also gave very likely ways the situation of the files makes sense.
All I saw was someone close to Biden having potential business ties with the terrorist government of Ukraine.
Anyone who does business with them, or supports them in any way, yes including Trump, has done the world a disservice.
Any I want anyone with any ties to be investigated.
Aid and support to Ukraine was one of the worst things trump did in my review of his term.
Lol, it’s just a phenomenon that never appealed to me.
Plaster words over pictures.
I also just don’t come across them often.
Web 2.0 just doesn’t appeal to me. The apps all suck, following conversations is difficult, and outside of specific groups of friends it generally all just ‘look at me’ noise.
I use texting to message friends. And conversations are easy to follow that way. Even with multiple people in group txts.
I’ve yet to find anything on SM/2.0 that you can’t do via texting (socially) or forum/commenting on the web.
Actually, with your web archive link, the entirety of my questioning is moot. The original post article did not show a picture of the store.
No case.
“Hacking” doesn’t necessarily imply a crime has been committed.
That was my initial stance, that the situation wouldn’t hurt because every infotech is a hacker.
But highlighting hacker and clicking look up: the first thing people see is an illegal activity.
Had the NYP story shown a photo he had the associated reference to go on. No photo, no case.
Do mind you though the repair and the “hack” are distantly separate events. One thing to keep in mind in your cause dj.
This wasn’t a case of drop off-> hack
This was abandoning, oh, what’s this, interesting….
Ah, not my kind of movie. Dodgeball. I watched it once and rated it 2/5. Missed the comment completely I guess.
And I don’t like memes. Generally they just appear to be stupid millennial crap. More the type of frat house humour as this one’s source film than actually funny.
Since I don’t use social media to any extent I rarely come across them anyway.
I happened to like the Ultra64 build and go package.
Click “alll and you have a 40gb distro across multiple ISOs.
Unfortunately it’s dead.
BYO Linux was fun while it lasted. But the target audience was too small.
You had to know enough to chose every aspect, and be lazy enough to auto install with no tweaking.
About the only use was for large scale rollouts. And those often go with a commercial package with support.
But moving to linux was my point of concern. Most people just won’t do it. It’s far better than windows: easier to use, more stable, better tested, updates don’t wipe out your graphics driver… etc.
I prefer Unix myself, the BSD forks, and swap between Darwin and MacOS most of the time. I have DragonFly but it’s clunky and OpenNet won’t run on my most current systems. I use Debian Linux and use out of repo packages. They’re too up tight about FOSS/FAIF.
The idea of go make your own, though, isn’t an overnight thing. That’s all the more I was saying. Doable, but your mother isn’t going to pull it off tomorrow.
As for the case:
Ultimately I see a judge who passed off on a triable case simply because he could. And then used generic and irrelevant context to award fees.
Let’s start with
However, this tenet does not apply to legal conclusions, and courts “are not bound to accept as true a legal conclusion couched as a factual allegation.”
Just because you don’t have to doesn’t mean you shouldn’t
And the court backtracks slightly with
A] document outside the four corners of the complaint may still be considered if it is central to the plaintiff’s claims and is undisputed in terms of authenticity.”
To state a claim for defamation, a plaintiff must plead the following elements: “(1) publication; (2) falsity; (3) actor must act with knowledge or reckless disregard as to the falsity on a matter concerning a public official, or at least
negligently on a matter concerning a private person; (4) actual damages; and (5) statement must be defamatory.”
We have 1) the notice of removal, hacked materials policy.
We have 2) they removed link was not directed to hacked materials.
We have 3) twitter took no steps to verify their internal claim as it extended to an award winning publication
4) as with copyright and all other cases, this can held and postponed for trial, not required at submission of cause.
5)
adiective
(of remarks, writing, etc.) damaging
the good reputation of someone;
slanderous or libelous~new Oxford
By claiming the post article was hacked materials they associated the source of the files as supplying hacked materials.
they contain (1) charges that a person has committed an infamous crime, or (2) has contracted an infectious disease, or (3) they carry statements tending to subject a person to hatred, distrust, ridicule, contempt or disgrace, or (4) to injure a person in his trade or profession.”
1) as above, the term hacked materials
2)n/a per “or”
3) we here have distrust and contempt
4) is clear when pared with 3.
consideration is given only to the ‘four corners’ of the publication and the language used should be interpreted as the ‘common mind’ would normally understand it
“hacker | 'haka | noun
a person who uses computers to
gain unauthorized access to data.” ~Oxford new
[defendant] Explanations “do not name Plaintiff or his business”
The named target was an article: The store, however, is shown. As such the association is already made.
[A] defamatory statement must be ‘of and concerning’ the plaintiff to be actionable.”
And here the article in question clearly associating the business as the source: twitter has declared the source to be illegal to the public.
As such, Plaintiff seeks to impose liability upon Defendant based upon external facts and statements attributed not to Defendant, but rather unaffiliated third parties.
And here is a glaring issue of concern. Twitter said the linked article was (or contained) hacked materials. The article clearly associated the materials with the plaintiff.
dictates that defamation per se must be “actionable on its face” and does not “require[] additional explanation of the words used to show that they have a defamatory meaning or that the person defamed is the plaintiff.
Here it is. The contents of the article, clearly defined by photo to be sourced of the plaintiff, are considered hacked materials.
each case involved statements in which there was a clear description of an ascertainable person within the communication itself, thereby permitting the plaintiff to demonstrate that he or she was implicated.
Which is satisfied here via photo evidence.
Fla. Stat. § 768.295(3)
The award of fees does not project from the statute.
To qualify for fees the case needed to be without merit and the case clears does have merit, as the judge submitted as much merit in the consideration of the per se argument.
The application of a California statute is questionable, not just in part.
As a ruling in state may not be influenced by other state’s regulations or restrictions. IG 10029.
My problem here is he uses references to Texas, California, etc rulings on SLAPP statutes to guide his own. And the specific application of discretion in one state has no concurrency in another location outside the state.
Get the details correct if you expect me to take you seriously
Point taken.
Isaac didn’t send the data to “somewhere”—he gave it to Rudy Giuliani, a known associate of Donald Trump.
Agree, should have gone to the Post directly.
The data in the emails was easily debunked as bullshit based on other publicly known data, so whatever was supposed to be so “incriminating”…wasn’t.
And yet secret service logs don’t line up to other comments and records. So filed away, more than debunked.
Even if I agree that it did: So what? It never once claimed that Isaac or his business were behind the “hack” that produced the data.
True: but aren’t you one that believes in generic association? And this is more direct. Post makes connection to shop by article. Twitter claims, by removal tag, that Post article falls under hacked materials.
By that line, twitter->post->store twitter has connected the store, via the article, to hacked materials.
You’d think someone running a business dedicated to computer repair and data recovery would be using more advanced tools
Sadly that’s rarely the case.
Be it Best Buy or computer nowhere: you’re rarely going to find quality recovery.
With water damage you don’t even look at recovery unless specifically asked. The largest repair footprint, Best Buy, doesn’t have any level of disk recovery beyond basic blank state ft/journal restoration.
With water damage you replace the drive, verify all components, replace corroded ICs, etc… and reinstall.
Data recovery from that state almost always is referred out to clean room facilities.
We don’t have the original sales order. We don’t know what was promised. But I doubt full scale binary rebuilding was part of it.
And this assumes he needed to recover the emails from a certain format that bungles the storage of email metadata. Nothing has yet proven that to be the case
True.
Though like I said even he opened it up to a fully working laptop with the email downloaded for offline reading, you’re dealing with compressed files. Any data disruption and it won’t load in the source reader.
Most people would default to 7zip or PeaZip.
Or, less inclined would go to a viewer such as ClearViewer or Peek.
I’d really like to understand your conclusions.
So I’m splitting my reply between politics and case: see below
Well, ignoring the fact that my tech doesn’t go to computer shops, lol.
You don't think that, in and of itself, makes this guy look like a sleazy piece of shit?
Well, civis didn’t complain about other major political leaks.
If true, it’s something the public needs to know.
The existence of the potential is something the public should know.
But yes, he’s a fuck.
But, again assuming it’s legit, I would have released them too under the same circumstances. My laptop. Incriminating data. Involved evil genocidal Ukraine.
It’s not even the who for me. If it was previously Don Jr’s laptop and I saw deals beneficial to Ukraine that were extra-political I would have dumped that too.
You don't think everyone can now assume this guy can and will rummage through your personal materials?
Any tech can. That’s nothing unique. Most don’t though.
But:
I'm not seeing the need for such a thing, especially since it was supposedly in for <checks notes again> water damage.
Maybe. yet it was abandoned. And thus his property. Within the confines of the law he could do whatever he wants with the data on the laptop.
If you support the dictatorship of Ukraine you have no right to political office. You surrendered that right. And I would do anything within the confines of the law to make sure you and anyone in your sphere of influence never makes it office.
Unfortunately we now have someone who cowtoes not just the the dictatorship of Ukraine but a terrorist government as well.
I was picking on Chosen, not bragging.
I was picking on the use of “professional” as anything special.
Or that some mechanical or electrical group is going to have me arrested for using the term.
And I agree, and stated above, passing the test doesn’t mean crap.
He stuck his 15 foot tall 500 pound 90% muscle 2 foot appendage self out as being a “professional” engineer.
Like that makes him god.
I’m a “professional” too. I don’t trot it out every other comment because it means nothing.
What means something? I have 30+ years of practical field experience. Given he has 350 different degrees and is 300 years old and spent 295 of them in school, I’d say I’m a bit better off.
Don’t forget his father was a Celtic Warrior and his mother was a Valkyrie and they created the US from dust and farts.
His grandparents were gods and etc etc etc . 🤮
aspect is inaccurate.
Most communication services today have major limits on both bandwidth use and connection numbers. Not only that, the majority consumer OS platform, Windows 10, is designed to limit you ability to self host.
So you need to pay for windows server,
Switch to Mac with OSserver, or use Linux/Unix.
Mine (in these)
And have an ISP that will let you host. Including static IP. (Xfinity)
And have the equipment to do so. (an old G5 Mac Xserve rack)
OS (AIX with extensions)
And mitigation software and hardware for protection (FirePro equipment).
And all I’m hosting is my old BBS. Off a single SAS solid state 100Gb drive. And less than a hundred connections per
Month.
You still have no DNS access, so it’s ip only.
Doable, but not by joe sixpack.
Inbound connection limitations are going to be a major factor.
Oh, and no idea why this is being held for moderation.

Actually you’re partly wrong. Apple does have a dedicated dictionary “system”, or APIs, that collect a rolling set of definitions from open source options (public domain, free publish, etc).
They don’t necessarily list the source when you highlight and click lookup.
Not on the Apple definition. Though you can scroll down to other sources.
I scrolled down past the apple definition posted above, skipping the more liberal listing from Wikipedia, which is in the midst of an edit war over science and sociology, and gave option 3 here.

Click “alll and you have a 40gb distro across multiple ISOs.
Unfortunately it’s dead.
BYO Linux was fun while it lasted. But the target audience was too small.
You had to know enough to chose every aspect, and be lazy enough to auto install with no tweaking.
About the only use was for large scale rollouts. And those often go with a commercial package with support.
But moving to linux was my point of concern. Most people just won’t do it. It’s far better than windows: easier to use, more stable, better tested, updates don’t wipe out your graphics driver… etc.
I prefer Unix myself, the BSD forks, and swap between Darwin and MacOS most of the time. I have DragonFly but it’s clunky and OpenNet won’t run on my most current systems. I use Debian Linux and use out of repo packages. They’re too up tight about FOSS/FAIF.
The idea of go make your own, though, isn’t an overnight thing. That’s all the more I was saying. Doable, but your mother isn’t going to pull it off tomorrow.

Re: Re: Re:
As for the case:
Ultimately I see a judge who passed off on a triable case simply because he could. And then used generic and irrelevant context to award fees.
Let’s start with
Just because you don’t have to doesn’t mean you shouldn’t
And the court backtracks slightly with
We have 1) the notice of removal, hacked materials policy.
We have 2) they removed link was not directed to hacked materials.
We have 3) twitter took no steps to verify their internal claim as it extended to an award winning publication
4) as with copyright and all other cases, this can held and postponed for trial, not required at submission of cause.
5)
By claiming the post article was hacked materials they associated the source of the files as supplying hacked materials.
1) as above, the term hacked materials
2)n/a per “or”
3) we here have distrust and contempt
4) is clear when pared with 3.
“hacker | 'haka | noun
gain unauthorized access to data.” ~Oxford new
The named target was an article: The store, however, is shown. As such the association is already made.
And here the article in question clearly associating the business as the source: twitter has declared the source to be illegal to the public.
And here is a glaring issue of concern. Twitter said the linked article was (or contained) hacked materials. The article clearly associated the materials with the plaintiff.
Here it is. The contents of the article, clearly defined by photo to be sourced of the plaintiff, are considered hacked materials.
Which is satisfied here via photo evidence.
The award of fees does not project from the statute.
To qualify for fees the case needed to be without merit and the case clears does have merit, as the judge submitted as much merit in the consideration of the per se argument.
The application of a California statute is questionable, not just in part.
As a ruling in state may not be influenced by other state’s regulations or restrictions. IG 10029.
My problem here is he uses references to Texas, California, etc rulings on SLAPP statutes to guide his own. And the specific application of discretion in one state has no concurrency in another location outside the state.

Re: Re: Re:
Point taken.
Agree, should have gone to the Post directly.
And yet secret service logs don’t line up to other comments and records. So filed away, more than debunked.
True: but aren’t you one that believes in generic association? And this is more direct. Post makes connection to shop by article. Twitter claims, by removal tag, that Post article falls under hacked materials.
By that line, twitter->post->store twitter has connected the store, via the article, to hacked materials.
Sadly that’s rarely the case.
Be it Best Buy or computer nowhere: you’re rarely going to find quality recovery.
With water damage you don’t even look at recovery unless specifically asked. The largest repair footprint, Best Buy, doesn’t have any level of disk recovery beyond basic blank state ft/journal restoration.
With water damage you replace the drive, verify all components, replace corroded ICs, etc… and reinstall.
Data recovery from that state almost always is referred out to clean room facilities.
We don’t have the original sales order. We don’t know what was promised. But I doubt full scale binary rebuilding was part of it.
True.
Though like I said even he opened it up to a fully working laptop with the email downloaded for offline reading, you’re dealing with compressed files. Any data disruption and it won’t load in the source reader.
Most people would default to 7zip or PeaZip.
Or, less inclined would go to a viewer such as ClearViewer or Peek.
I’d really like to understand your conclusions.
So I’m splitting my reply between politics and case: see below

Re: Re:
Well, ignoring the fact that my tech doesn’t go to computer shops, lol.
Well, civis didn’t complain about other major political leaks.
If true, it’s something the public needs to know.
The existence of the potential is something the public should know.
But yes, he’s a fuck.
But, again assuming it’s legit, I would have released them too under the same circumstances. My laptop. Incriminating data. Involved evil genocidal Ukraine.
It’s not even the who for me. If it was previously Don Jr’s laptop and I saw deals beneficial to Ukraine that were extra-political I would have dumped that too.
Any tech can. That’s nothing unique. Most don’t though.
But:
Maybe. yet it was abandoned. And thus his property. Within the confines of the law he could do whatever he wants with the data on the laptop.
If you support the dictatorship of Ukraine you have no right to political office. You surrendered that right. And I would do anything within the confines of the law to make sure you and anyone in your sphere of influence never makes it office.
Unfortunately we now have someone who cowtoes not just the the dictatorship of Ukraine but a terrorist government as well.

I was picking on Chosen, not bragging.
I was picking on the use of “professional” as anything special.
Or that some mechanical or electrical group is going to have me arrested for using the term.
And I agree, and stated above, passing the test doesn’t mean crap.
He stuck his 15 foot tall 500 pound 90% muscle 2 foot appendage self out as being a “professional” engineer.
Like that makes him god.
I’m a “professional” too. I don’t trot it out every other comment because it means nothing.
What means something? I have 30+ years of practical field experience. Given he has 350 different degrees and is 300 years old and spent 295 of them in school, I’d say I’m a bit better off.
Don’t forget his father was a Celtic Warrior and his mother was a Valkyrie and they created the US from dust and farts.
His grandparents were gods and etc etc etc . 🤮

Re: Re:
That’s only partly true. The
aspect is inaccurate.
Most communication services today have major limits on both bandwidth use and connection numbers. Not only that, the majority consumer OS platform, Windows 10, is designed to limit you ability to self host.
So you need to pay for windows server,
Switch to Mac with OSserver, or use Linux/Unix.
Mine (in these)
And have an ISP that will let you host. Including static IP. (Xfinity)
And have the equipment to do so. (an old G5 Mac Xserve rack)
OS (AIX with extensions)
And mitigation software and hardware for protection (FirePro equipment).
And all I’m hosting is my old BBS. Off a single SAS solid state 100Gb drive. And less than a hundred connections per
Month.
You still have no DNS access, so it’s ip only.
Doable, but not by joe sixpack.
Inbound connection limitations are going to be a major factor.
Oh, and no idea why this is being held for moderation.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re:
Actually you’re partly wrong. Apple does have a dedicated dictionary “system”, or APIs, that collect a rolling set of definitions from open source options (public domain, free publish, etc).
They don’t necessarily list the source when you highlight and click lookup.
Not on the Apple definition. Though you can scroll down to other sources.
I scrolled down past the apple definition posted above, skipping the more liberal listing from Wikipedia, which is in the midst of an edit war over science and sociology, and gave option 3 here.
But you have to scroll all the way down to the news croon to find PT, psychology today, before you find the current American movement to de binarise the term.
That’s after 4 dictionaries, Wikipedia, and a handful of translations.
