The change is regarding "permanent" installations, which the article also infers to mean directly hardwired. Those of us who go the route of a NEMA 14-50 outlet are likely unaffected.

That said, I wish they'd ban the cheap, shitty outlets that can't actually provide continuous power. These are the very popular $10 outlets, vs the $50 ones that also can't fit in a standard box.

Contempt of Court is a bit different. It's usually applied until the problem action is corrected. For instance, they could (in theory) hold the administration in contempt, meaning fines or even jail, until they comply with the court order to return him.

Now, they can and absolutely should be prosecuted for their actions, but it would likely need to be a separate case.

The hardest part to believe is that he would wipe his own ass.

Then it's a good thing the link wasn't to Snopes

The big caveat is that the BIOS must allow it, and most released versions do not.

Related, many small(-ish) bars have a stage for live music on Friday/Saturday. There may not be enough seating for those nights, and there's little/no standing room, so people randomly share tables. From there, you strike up conversation with other fans.

Find the small places where they advertise the bands by name, and make sure they aren't just cover bands. Irish pubs have been lucky for me, but there's another place near me that regularly has jam bands.

Just order it direct from AliExpress, just like Trump did

That's part of the strategy. First, go after the small project that can't defend itself. Use that to set a precedent that is harder for the bigger targets to overturn.

I would expect the bigger players to get themselves involved in the defense for exactly that reason.

Of note, Kirsten Gillibrand was on the ballot for a different seat. My guess is that it means something was calling the wrong database table (Senate candidates instead of presidential candidates). This could've been while casting votes, counting votes, or reporting results.

It doesn't make it any less concerning for our democracy, but it's a lot easier to explain how it happened.

Uber and the like have specific warnings about that, too. Of course, you can just ignore them and say you're going to see someone else that's in the ER.
