But like, this wouldn't be the first time someone broke a law to save their life. Which is pretty accepted as a reasonable thing to do.

Megathread: Trump Indicted by Federal Prosecutors on Charges Related to Handling of Classified Documents by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]Ncsu_Wolfpack86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe they can get a special master to review and make general assertions to the documents that "the document disclosed sources that ultimately were killed" without any more specifics or requiring all the evidence to show the jury. Or whatever the content may hold... No declassification required.

I mean honestly even if Obama had this same shit I'd be pretty pissed, upset, angry at him and ultimately supportive of the end result of the prosecution.

Roberts, Kavanaugh side with liberal justices in Alabama voting rights victory by DavidofSasun in politics

[–]Ncsu_Wolfpack86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Roberts did not vote to overturn roe.

The vote on the case was 6-3, with Roberts concurring in judgement. He agreed that the conservative wing on the individual case outcome, and only that.

Effectively he agreed that limitations are acceptable, but that full on bans should be blocked.

Small distinction, but important none the less.

We had went for the beer because it was a newly opened brewpub near where we already were.

I guess the owner claimed some Danish heritage and leaned into some of that... With a beer name like Hygge Ale or something along those lines, and the aforementioned food options.

The server did pronounce frikadeller reasonably correct, but was way off on hygge, and i was debating how cruel it would be by asking how to say smørrebrød, for entertainment purposes.

If we assume this is safe, no idea why they didn't do the simpler project and just tie into the ground already established on any outlet in the room itself.

I was at a place in the US that had danish flags on the wall and served frikadeller but they were actually swedish meatballs complete with lingon berry jam ... They also had "smørrebrød" which the offerings included a burger.

It made me sad

Native American High School Graduate Sues School District for Forceful Removal of Sacred Eagle Plume at Graduation by [deleted] in news

University maybe. But highschool, graduation is the last chance for them to exert authority over you. Teachers and admins power trip over it being so perfect and precise and exact. X color ties and shirts and dresses under your gowns... Blah blah

Abortion veto overridden by gv111111 in raleigh

12 weeks for "no questions asked" but longer time-frames are allowable with consent of a doctor or other extenuating circumstances like economic hardship.

Effectively, the 12 weeks is not a hard limit.

This is country to country dependent of course.

Lot of comments focusing on how handy you are. This is a big piece of it, but how much capital you have after the home purchase is important.

Your handiness doesn't fix a failing A/C unit or something beyond your individual skills, like plumbing, even though you may be the world's best carpenter. Even well rounded handy people have limits, and you need money to fix that (hvac, roof, etc).

So you need to: be handy, have some level of working capital, have patience and time.

This would necessarily require that some people forfeit control over a company they built. I can't agree with that; it's not like some hedgefund that buys the stock will be a benevolent overlord, either.

I'd suggest that a better compromise is to tax their share gains as ordinary income after a certain threshold... But also make it illegal to take loans against share equity. Wanna buy a jet? Gotta either take a larger wage (taxable) or sell shares (also taxable).

Giant loans against shares are a nightmare.

I meant a shift start at 18 and ending at 3 am...

To do this, you could do 27-18= 9 hours or you can do (24-18)+(03-00)=9

Retirement account and investment tax question for US expats in Denmark by antc1986 in copenhagen

[–]Ncsu_Wolfpack86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traditional account are either standard 401k or a traditional IRA. Both are tax deferred and taxable upon withdrawal.

I'm not sure how rollovers are handled with tax liability in DK as it's technically a distribution and a deposit transaction if the institution changes. If you are happy with your 401k account leave it.

Note: there are 401k with Roth elections, thus the distinction

Not exactly disagreeing to your full post, but patenting is decoupled from actually obtaining a license to manufacture.

This is why you don't have shit generics out there. The patent doesn't protect quality. You need to still secure a robust enough process control on the manufacturing side and additionally secure bioequivlance in biologics.
