The F16 is more useful to Ukraine at the moment. Until Ukraine is approved to engage in deep strikes on Russia, that will probably remain the case.

The F16 is faster, more maneuverable, and cheaper(including maintenance), vs the F35.

SHUT UP! Why couldn't you let him have that little bit of naivette?

Seriously though, its a damn fine idea, if only the US and the DNC weren't totally bat-shit on this front. Why does a little thing like reality have to be so un-cooperative?

Only problems I've ever had on TPB were not finding things that I could find on other sites. Then again, I don't use Windows for either downloading or media consumption, I check torrent file lists as I'm downloading to make sure I'm not downloading anything suspect, and I've so far managed to catch wind of things like certain trusted uploaders getting hacked, spoofed, or just plain trying to cash-in, in-time to avoid getting worked over.

Those same users post to most of the other public sites as well, so I'm not getting where TPB is somehow particularly un-trustworthy. IME, other public sites seem to have MANY more torrents for a given search, often by orders of magnitude, so which one is really less moderated?

The REAL encouraged/discouraged is Private vs Public sites and trackers, and I'm not pretending that for all my caveats I haven't been just plain lucky. If you download regularly at all, Private is the way to go.

Trump isn't in jail due to his sabotaging the judicial aparatus while in office and the clear threat his voters demonstrate. They have shown themselves to be a credible threat to democracy. I was very wrong, while you and apparently nine others misread my comment

Seriously, do you expect me to lay Trump's on-going freedom, and the January 6th bullshit, at Biden's feet? Biden isn't even running now.

I voted for Howie Hawkins last time, certain in the knowlege that Biden would win, Trump would go to jail, and we could hold Biden's feet to the fire.

January 6th, and all the related bullshit that's followed, showed me that I had made a huge mistake and just got lucky when it comes to the MAGA-crowd's coup competence. I will not make that mistake again, not in this election anyways.

"Abandon Harris" is a shit campaign name. Self-aware guilt, right in the name.

Anyone who takes Dueling Banjos to mean anything has never given Sunny Came Home a good listen.

He doesn't intend to be around long enough to face the consequences of intentional failure. Not in human form, anyways.

He's playing to lose.

You don't have to do geo-fencing or disallow use. Don't distribute or ship to East Texas, and don't do support there, warranty or otherwise, done. You're onto something with the EULA bit, but beyond that is a burden they are not obligated to take up or impose upon grey-market customers.

Yes, but if the companies being sued don't do business in that jurisdiction, it falls on other jurisdictions to enforce that courts' edicts. Anyone that does so is just enabling the corruption.

I mean, it doesn't really have a hell, either.
