RCN is in the US. The lawsuit was filed in the US. The filmmakers behind the lawsuit appear to be based in the US. Reddit is based in the US.
Like it or not, this is a US story. There may be other, similar stories about other countries, but this one is US.
Also, if your country has less protection from political corruption than the US, you probably have bigger problems than piracy.
These are public records. It's the indirect payments, such as to a PAC or free good publicity, that aren't tracked.
What legal reason(s) do you have for needing to see their appearance when making a decision on whether to hire them? You may have some, such as requiring a professional appearance. These need to be spelled out in the job requirements. It also opens the doors to claims of illegal discrimination, since this will be on full display. In the US, that includes race, age, and gender. Having a required video can also reveal protected classes like familial status and religion, depending on what's in the background.
Whether an action is "Legal" is almost always dependent on context, and the lawyers/courts involved. A common tactic by racist nightclubs is to set a dress code, particularly on shoes. The argument is they aren't refusing entry based on race, but on clothing. But the unauthorized shoes are the ones commonly worn by people of the race they're discriminating against. Different courts have made different rulings on whether this (and similar actions) constitute racial discrimination.
I suppose it depends on how you define by mistake. Your example is an odd bit of narrowing the dataset, which I would certainly describe as an unintended error in the design. But the original is more pertinent- it wasn't intended to be sexist (etc). But since it was designed to mimic us, it also copied our bad decisions.
The absolute easiest and simplest would be to modify your grub config to have a longer timer on the boot menu, effectively delaying them until the NAS is up.
That doesn't necessarily mean it's the best option- there are ways to make the actual boot process wait for mounts, or to stagger the WOL signals, or the solutions others have mentioned. But changing grub is quick and easy.
You're overlooking a very common reason that people setup a homelab - practice for their careers. Many colleges offer a more legitimate setup for the same purpose, and a similar design. But if you're choosing to learn AD from a free/cheap book instead of a multi-thousand dollar course, you still need a lab to absorb the information and really understand it.
Granted, AD is of limited value to learn these days, but it's still a backbone for countless other tools that are highly relevant.
Yes, that's one possibility. But if your goal is to create a multi-unit residential housing building, you would probably choose a location that doesn't already have a giant office building in the way.
Fwiw, turning most of these buildings into livable spaces is a lot harder and more expensive than you'd expect. For many of them, it would actually be cheaper to just raze it and create a new residential building, even if it maintains the same outer dimensions.
It's weird that this post called it by the short name. The full name, as you typically see in articles, is "X (formerly Twitter)".
It's kinda like "The Artist Formerly Known As Prince". A few places tried to call him "The Artist", but no one ever knew what that meant.
Not sure where you live, but any big city is likely to have (as a whole) more than enough hotel capacity that a single big event won't cause that much demand. You just won't be able to find a room nearby. Add a 20 minute (or 60, depending) Lyft to the suburbs and they're barely aware that the event is happening.
Also, to get that price you need to look at extended stay hotels. These blur the lines between a hotel and a short-term rental apartment. They do not offer a stay for a single night. They are often sold by the week, or at least with a 1-week minimum
To anyone else reading this, there's something you should know:
Memory errors don't always mean the memory itself (hardware RAM stick) is bad. It can also be a power issue (bad PSU, incorrect voltage set in the UEFI), compatibility, defective memory controller (CPU or motherboard), and more.
OP almost certainly has a bad stick, but it's worthwhile for anyone building a PC to run a slew of stress tests and diagnostics before using it for anything that matters.
Lawyers would fight it, but it would probably boil down to "No such records exist". But they aren't looking for your personal records- this would be your browser history, connection logs, that sort of thing. Which means your PC(s) could be seized as evidence to extract any relevant info.
