You don't say that, you either say "over" (I've finished talking, go ahead and talk more yourself) or you say "out" (I'm done talking on the radio now, bye).
I can only guess it was from Hollywood, but in the military no one uses it because it's wrong. People down vote for several reasons, but I don't worry about that usually, I'm just here to talk to others a bit and read about technology.
Put it into a docker container, run with the `--rm` flag, then when it expires have it delete it's own git repo and other data before exiting, then it'll really be dead.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I agree. I love the internet for the weird and interesting things you can find. I’m glad this one has resonated with so many people.
> Augment MN State Patrol Civil Disturbance Operations with a show of force
Well, that's fucking illegal as shit. You can't use military to perform law enforcement actions, and a "show of force" is clearly a threat to use the force, which would be a law enforcement action, since a show of force is technically a responsive security measure. The military is only supposed to support law enforcement with things like medical care or what have you, but this falls clearly on the side of law enforcement.
Edit: when I was in the Navy, we performed counter drug operations where the Coast Guard would legally "take over" the ship's command structure, temporarily, so we could legally perform law enforcement actions against drug boats thousands of miles from the USA. When we spotted the drug runners (by helo or intelligence), the Coasties would immediately become in legal command of the ship because any warnings over the radio (where we told them to stop or we'd shoot their engines) or shots to do so would be considered a law enforcement action since it was a "threat of force". We (the officers) were told if we did anything over the radio or even chased the boats before the Coastie Commanding Officer took over, we'd get court-martialed for some sort of violation of the US Constitution, no shit.
Haha what a clever end run around the rule. Just get a single Coast Guard officer in and you can enforce using the military. Reminds me of the fact that California has no civil asset forfeiture but the police have revshares with the feds and the feds can totally still do their civil asset forfeiture, so Californian police just route their stuff through the feds who take a cut. Very much in the hacker spirit.
Nonsense. As far back as 1970 the infantry and armed cavalry of the Ohio National Guard fixed bayonettes to the M1 semi-automatic rifles and shot 13 unarmed students at Kent State university - killing four.
You will note that students were indicted for the riot (Kent 25) but NONE of the soldiers or chain of command.
And the USG has been defending this action as recently as 2012.
Isn't that the difference between what is illegal on paper (according to the law) and what actually gets enforced as illegal? Kids are taught that the law is the law, but in reality only the law that gets enforced matters.
IANAL and don't live in the US, but my guess from other posters is that its completely legal for the national guard to shoot rioters if the governor authorises it.
FWIW: I did politely ask what the legal response to looting in US law is, but got down-voted, sans answer, by the woke.
I have bitter first-hand experience of the consequences of leaving dangerous laws on the books: e.g. shooting looters with FMJ ammunition "that everyone known isn't going to be used".
I bet few us live in Ireland, but most would agree that their recent changes to remove blasphemy laws is a good idea, no?
If you REALLY don't want the military shooting looters, then at least take the effort to get the laws changed. You can multi-task. Phone AOC.
I appreciate your experience, but in the USA, regardless of what these other posters are stating, you can't use the military for law enforcement except for very narrow limits. They are mistaken when they say this use is legal, but I can forgive their error since America has basically turned into a banana republic, so it's hard to understand some things that are occurring daily used to be really illegal and looked down upon.
1. I am aware of the PCA, by guess is a bunch of other loosely written clauses in OTHER equally legal Acts of congress are used as cover to trump the PCA;
2. Once you are at secret courts, all bets are off.
I write things I need to do down, I do things that take 5 min or less right now, and I don't read about current events more than once per week for about 30 minutes, and I limit myself to HN for social media and turn no 'noprocrast' so I can come here only once per day for 60 minutes. I find that if I follow these rules, I get things done at a reasonable pace since I am limited from the time sucks.
Nothing is more true, as I start to relearn C after 20 years, that there is no substitute for the above. Literally, there is no good C tutorial or way to learn other than just writing some goddamn code and trying to make it compile.
And then release your code and watch the people roll into the comments to tell you how you are doing everything wrong. Where were those people when I was trying to learn? Why haven't they written some God damn documentation? I know C lets you do whatever you want. I don't want to do whatever. I want to write software that is easy to maintain and doesn't fall over in a light breeze.
