Roberts made sure to distinguish this case from the previous one:

Chief Justice John Roberts didn’t say much, but tipped his hand when he sought to distinguish Callais from his own decision upholding the VRA just two years ago. Back then, he said, the court “took existing precedent as a given,” since no party asked for its reversal. Now, however, both the court and Louisiana have put “existing precedent” in the crosshairs, giving the majority a golden opportunity to overturn it.

Nevermind that the state only got on board with overturning precedent after the Supreme Court wanted to rehear the case this term with parameters clearly meant to head in that direction, the court and the state are on the same page now so he's ready to go for it.

DOJ brought the case in a court known as the "rocket docket" and they're trying to take it slow. An experienced prosecutor would have known better, but apparently they couldn't find any who thought the case was strong enough to bother with.

Apple Music has an Android app.

Apple Music has a family plan, and it's cheaper than Spotify's, at least in Canada (16.99 vs 20.99).

Qobuz has a family plan too, a little more expensive than Apple's here but still cheaper than Spotify's.

SCOTUS will find a reason.

These numbers don’t make any sense to me, as the hed is about buying lots of chips, and the body is about power use. No matter how you slice it, $8.76/kWh is a terrible fucking investment … if that’s chip-inclusive, that’s another story.

Data center scale is usually given in terms of power consumption, not computing power. The trillion dollars is meant to buy enough hardware to suck up 20GW of power, and probably none of the money will go towards power generation.

It's just a one-off transfer, I'm not planning to stop the transfer, and it's my media library, so nothing should change, but I figured something resumable is a good idea for a transfer that's going to take 12+ hours, in case there's an unplanned stop.

I was planning to use rsync to ship several TB of stuff from my old NAS to my new one soon. Since we're already talking about rsync, I guess I may as well ask if this is right way to go?

The Democrats need to be reminding everyone that budget talks are pointless when Trump can do this shit.

I backed that Kickstarter. I guess I should have paid more attention to what happened afterwards.
