If there was child porn on the hard drive (there wasn't) that belonged to Hunter Biden (which it didn't), then copying it and handing it off to another party would be INCREDIBLY FUCKING ILLEGAL.

In their rush to ratfuck the election they're making themselves into fantasy felons.
Speaking as an IT tech who has repaired computers for a living, here's what you do when you find child porn on a customer's drive:

1) You call the police.
2) You give them the drive.
3) You wait while they tear through your network looking for copies and asking you questions.
4) You do not make a copy.
5) You DO NOT make a copy.
6) Holy Christ what is wrong with you you DO NOT MAKE A COPY
7) STOP MAKING COPIES OH MY GOD ARE YOU INSANE
They're so full of shit. Just so completely full of shit.

Imagine being so full of shit that you accidentally make yourself a distributor of child porn

That's an amazing amount of shit
Jim here would have copied the child porn. Image
"They ain't buyin it, Ron, roll out the child porn!"
I worked at two different big chain tech companies doing computer repair and both had a "here's what you do if you find the child porn" orientations.

One of them was like an hour video with bullet points.

This one's a runner up for WTFIWWY this week.

You gotta admit, this is clever. It was easy to fool the automated checkout and this wasn't even his first time doing it.

Know what stopped him?

A REAL HUMAN BEING DOING ACTUAL WORK local21news.com/news/offbeat/s…
The automated systems have cameras that supposedly watch you scanning things. (Walmart's system is notoriously bad, check the article.)

But you can fool it if you have a bar code for another item.
wired.com/story/walmart-…
In theory, you could make this scam even more bulletproof:

1) Photocopy the Kool-Aid UPC bar code.
2) Print it onto labels.
3) Palm the labels and stick them on the items.
4) Pay $0.25 for an entire bedroom set.

I'm sorry, do you try to secretly masturbate during a work meeting? In proximity to your coworkers?

Did you do that before the pandemic?

Do you try to secretly masturbate during work meetings now?

Because I'm really sure not everyone is that tacky and thoughtless.
Like, everybody rubs one out, sure.

Not everybody rubs one out while in the middle of a group work setting, virtual or not.

Silly bastard didn't even go to the bathroom first.
Dude works at one of the biggest mastheads in our modern hellscape, post-Me Too, and you don't think some inappropriately planned onanism will get national attention?

Wait for the meeting to end then flip it up slap it rub it down all you want, but work time is work time.

Why yes, I am a fan of the hit show Dogfuckers.

Now, I know what you're thinking: it's based on that wretched Dogfuckers book about fucking dogs. I hate that book. It's awful.

But the Dogfuckers TV show is great. They leave out a lot of the dogfucking and it speaks to me.
Right!

He doesn't fuck the dogs, he makes love to them.

1) He's about to launch a whole-cloth spinoff of The Boys, so ... too many what now?

2) Really? That's his takeaway from the MCU? Sit on your ass?

This fucking guy. Image
The people who are supposed to represent "you" in The Boys are ... The Boys.

Who have superpowers.

Who are, in fact, grim-and-gritty superheroes no matter how much the material itself denies it.

So ... the fuck was your point, mate? Image
And then there's this bit.

If you react to the earnest with rage and the sentimental with anger, maybe what you're watching isn't the problem. Image

New project time!

A long while back, I picked up one of these: a Vox AC4TV. Little 4 watt amp with an attenuator and a 10" speaker.

And it was just ... bad. Boxy sound, broke up way to fast, too much high end.

So I resolved to make it better. Image
The first thing I tried was chasing it from a closed-back cabinet to an open back, by cutting some of the material off.

That helped a little, but it was still way too bright. ImageImage
It also had some nasty hum.

Part of the problem is, well ... it's a very cheap PCB-based tube amp. Sometimes you can do those well with no issues, but this thing was way too compact. It needed a revamp. Image

This is the madness of modern copyright:

The people who create the music can't play their music because the people who published their albums own their music.
Because the audiences are so large and the rules for collecting royalties on streamed songs is so byzantine (trust me, I know), Facebook is simply disallowing all of it.

One of the biggest companies on the planet simply can't contend with managing copyright.

Think about that.
The more people watch your stream, the more you owe for playing a song. You have to monitor how many people were listening, when, and to what song.

You have to compile this data and send it for processing to determine the royalties you owe.
