Both physical and digital Switch games include what Nintendo calls technological protection measures, or TPMs. As Nintendo itself explains in one of those takedown notices, "When a game is started on the Nintendo Switch console a Game TPM is decrypted using cryptographic keys that are protected by Console TPMs. The games themselves can then be decrypted by the decrypted Game TPMs so the game can be played."

The DMCA includes a section that says "no person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title." In other words, any attempt to bypass DRM is a violation of copyright law no matter the intent - or at least, that's how Nintendo interprets the law, and that argument has been very effective at getting hosts like GitHub to take down software like Lockpick and SigPatch-Updater.

Ronald Reagan: "I'm going to de-unionize the FAA by firing every single member and forcing them to reapply for their old jobs or GTFO."

Joe Biden: "Hey, Jack! I heard you filed for a union election! I'm going to blog about it, as the most pro-union president in American history!"

The two genders.

They'd just find another guy to villainize. Probably a foreigner like Xi or Putin or Generic Hamas Guy.

By dying, Trump would transend his petty mortal form and slough off the frailty and sin inherent to a simple alienated human.

He will rejoin the cosmic flow of existence and enter into communion with all other once-living things, to be cleansed of earthly transgression and to assume a new and more holy form. No longer a humble ape, obsessed with social status or horded wealth, he will see with the eyes of a thousand ancestors and know the oneness that mortal life denied him.

In that sense, isn't hoping he kicks it just another way of saying you support Trump?

Checkmate, Hexbear

If leftists ran the country, Trump never would have been elected President. He would have been assigned the job of co-hosting award shows with Kathy Griffin and Joan Rivers, until he OD'd on cocaine in the late 90s.

He and Chris Farley would have dueling eulogies.

Where even is this?

Having the enormous brass balls to say "you've destroyed your reputation by mentioning that your parents were in the Holocaust" in the defense of Israel is such a fucking trip.

It's a book, but the main character of "The Verifiers" by Jane Pek is a cyclist.
