  • He’s just this guy who has a big chance of being a murderer. He is capable of deliberately planning to kill a person outside of immediate self-defence. However evil CEO A or B may be, the moral calculus isn’t hard: society as a whole comes first. Unless we’re sure he is innocent, it’s not clear he’s someone who can be left free safely. He’s a flight risk for starters.

    Police parade him and his manifesto so that they have an excuse to hold him, they look competent, and they get to keep him behind bars until we know for sure one way or another, or until they can’t hold him any longer. In which case we may never know for sure until the statue of limitations had passed and if he wants to confess.



  • Clearly not, but what’s your point? Biden is president. Not saying it’s right. But I think it’s what any parent would do. Hunter isn’t some moral monster. He’s just messed up more than anything, in the way a kid in his situation might.

    Not justifying it, but executive power is insane. Trump will break the law far more destructively with respect to Hunter then this pardon, or at least that’s the fear I imagine Biden has.

    What do you recommend?

    I want something that I can set up and forget about, that costs a few bucks a month or less, and integrates between all my devices. Security is a given, so let’s assume spyware or not, the data is safe unless I fuck up.

    Fair. I’m not knocking that choice if it’s for you. But it isn’t for most people, especially those who are not at all tech savvy.

    I work in IT, and almost nobody who opted to use external hard drives for backup is ever up to date with their backups.
