IMHO, the only benefit is the longevity of the device. Those specs are absolute overkill for today’s needs, but that iPad will remain performant for a long time.

Counter point. You can buy possum fur clothing with same day delivery.

DHL in Germany, pretty ok.

DHL in the US: package will be delivered by white windowless van with a crooked magnet on the side. It will be delivered to the wrong house. In the wrong city.

Yes, I think proper sentencing / punishment should be contextual.

If you’re battling a disease that affects your behavior, you should be given leniency if you can prove that you have a care plan in place. Lots of places do this. Some formally, some informally.

Hunter would’ve likely been treated with more leniency if he wasn’t the presidents’ son. I see LOTS of poor and middle class people, on a weekly basis, that have gotten in trouble for similar stuff, and they’ve been able to get right with the court / prosecutor and move on quickly.

Enforce, but use context.

He should he treated as any other coke addict that is in court in Delaware and is actively in a recovery program. Meaning, the gun thing should’ve been resolved with a plea deal, community service time and forced attendance of outpatient care / verified recovery meetings.

And the stuff while in the throes of addiction? Similar plan, but with a plan to pay back taxes.

In and out. Resolved in a few months.

The problem is also that he’s the target of a bunch of right wing conspiracy theories that routinely fall flat under investigation… but Trump is about to put a bunch of lackeys and conspiracy nuts into the Justice system.

Homie could end up going to jail for bullshit just like Putin’s political opponents and their families go to jail in Russia.

To be fair, the older he gets, the more he seems to be rocking Aunt Carol hair.

As any musician will tell you, you don’t really need sight to play. Learning to play without looking at the instrument is pretty important.

The biggest challenges are with how to learn / write new pieces since you can’t look at written notation. Stevie Wonder “wrote” by recording and playing back tracks. A surprising amount of sighted musicians do the same if they never learned how to read or write notation, or if they just hate doing that.

Six days of vacation after a crazy stressful campaign, and she can afford the nicer room because she worked her ass off.

There are important things to worry about. This story is an intentional distraction.

He filled out a gun purchase form and said he wasn’t using. I’ve seen many many poor and middle class people that have had charges dropped or changed to recovery care as long as they were committed to recovery.

If he wasn’t a Biden and was some random dude with a DC public defender, this would’ve been over and a non-issue since he’s been demonstrating that he’s participating in a recovery plan.
