Legal action against Trump shows ‘rottenness’ of US politics, says Putin
Yeah, Putinbro himself would never threaten a political opponent with prison. He just straight out DOES it.

Study suggests single dose of psilocybin safe and effective as treatment for major depressive disorder
Reply in thread
25mg of mushroom would be.
But 25mg of pure psilocybin is more than a microdose.

What's the best vacuum cleaner in your opinion?
If the criteria is pure suction power, my Shark literally sucked a strip of veneer off an antique rocking chair. And nearly pulled down a curtain it grabbed hold of. Which aren't good things, but I learned to turn it down when near loose stuff.

Frequency Rule
Pretty sure you'd only have to spin half that fast, you'd get two magnetic cycles per rotation. Though if you flipped one of the magnets (or better yet, removed one) you'd need the 1575+ million rotations but get a stronger radiation (I think, though not positive).

Conservative Legal Scholars: Trump Is Barred From Office for His Role in Jan. 6
I'd think the Trump activities would be exactly the kind of thing those words were about. But I'm not a constitutional scholar. Or a Maganite.

Squabblr now officially a "free speech" cesspool, admins removed or forced out by owner
Reply in thread
It's much better now, but at the first I gave up because I couldn't figure out how to even sign up due to the rather poor web design. And I'm a programmer.

Electricity isn't the same as electromagnetic radiation. A varying magnetic field induces a varying electric field which radiates into space as an EM wave. See Maxwell's equations.

How did you get your job? Any advice?
This was a LONG time ago, but... I was an electronics tech without a job. I managed to talk to (not interview with) an executive at a company I wanted to work at but wasn't encouraged. He said something on the order of "Maybe later" and that was enough. He (or rather, his secretary) started to get calls from me every Monday and Wednesday morning right at their opening time to check whether Later might be now. Most of the time I was told he was busy. But after about a month they finally had me come in for an interview. I don't know if they were just tired of my calls or if they were impressed with my diligence. I was hired, and worked there for the next 14 years.

Trump Says He Hopes Meadows Will Remain ‘Loyal’ to Him in Election Case
Reply in thread
An innocent man would say "I hope he tells the truth". Loyalty is bullshit in a criminal case.

Can you tell me about any lesser-known local fruits or vegetables in your area that you think more people should discover?
Persimmons. Have a full size tree about to drop maybe 40 pounds of them. And I have no idea what to do with that many.

Elon Musk's Twitter was fined $350,000 for snubbing the special counsel investigating Donald Trump
Reply in thread
But Elon probably routinely has lost that much most times he's posted dumb stuff on Twitter himself. Hard to meaningfully fine a multi billionaire. But apparently he caved before the government got to really trying.
