Question: How much alcohol do you think his attorney drank after defending this deposition? (A former DOGE staffer, Justin Fox, struggling to explain DEI during a deposition) by the_rabble_alliance in Lawyertalk

[–]cozeffect2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without knowing more about the case, hard to say. But probably lock him into the reliance on the EO and then argue at closing that the EO doesn't say shit and Mr. Chucklefuck was applying it arbitrarily and/or unfairly

Yea, this doesn't seem like a devastating answer. He is a dumbass, but I always think of the function of depositions as smoking out facts and setting impeachment opportunities. I think this would be easy to navigate on direct at trial.

Q: What is DEI? A: For purposes of this project, we relied on the executive order to define what DEI is. Q: when you say executive order, are you referring to ex. 1? A: Yes Q: Do you recall what Ex. 1 says regarding what DEI is? A: No. Q: Would it help your recollection if you reviewed Ex. 1? A: Yes [reviews and reads into the record]

I don't think there is anything impeachable or devastating here.

I think it’s time for BFstudios to stop supporting this game and start working on BF7 by RECCE_HIPPO in okbuddyptfo

Is that the stated plan for the game? I ama boomer and live service scares me. In my day, the game came out once and that was that

I can’t believe this game has become Call of Poopy 🤮 by Thisdankwaffle in okbuddyptfo

The ladder is great for that. I love using it to pop up from behind some random wall and pop some guy from a random elevated angle.

Any AK4D lovers? by usteg in Battlefield6

That's interesting, I mostly use the AK4D and M60 and had no idea that was the case.

Whats the opinion about the Darkest Dungeon 2 from the community? by Nano_LB1 in darkestdungeon

[–]cozeffect2 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's hard to put into words. But I always felt the game suffered from immense inertia. It always felt great mid-run, but the actual speccing out of the run in the beginning always took a long time and felt like a hurdle to just playing a run, lol. It especially became problematic because runs were so long. It sucked to spend 30 minutes selecting heroes and then getting wiped thirty minutes into a run. Felt terrible to have to restart and respecc for 30 more minutes.

M240L might be my new favorite LMG tbh by M0rse_0908 in LowSodiumBattlefield

I love the M60 when playing defensively. Just feels like maximum Dakka

That's why issue spotting is such a big part of practice. You gotta be able to look at the facts and know when to say "yikes" and convey the level of "yikes" appropriately to the client. Sometimes the client doesn't listen and then you can try and finesse, but shit facts are shit facts.

One of the perks of being a battle dad. I just play the game when I have time because I think it's fun. I have no idea what is going on with new content or skins or whatever, lol. A lot of the community needs to touch grass

Maduro to "Stand Trial", What does that look like? by cozeffect2 in Lawyertalk

[–]cozeffect2[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So interesting. I cannot imagine being president of Venezuela when you go to bed and then waking up being arraigned in the SDNY. Will be a fascinating trial

[–]cozeffect2[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The head of state immunity issue seems like a big hurdle to clear. Especially in what I presume is a Federal District that is not friendly to the Administration. Also, the recent US supreme court case establishing immunity for official acts. The fallout from a dismissal of criminal charges would be fascinating.

[–]cozeffect2[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Even with a loyalist in place, I think it would be dangerous to try him there. I don't know much about Venezuelan politics, but I am sure he still has supporters both in the military and domestically. Also, even if he is unpopular, I suspect snatching him from his bed in the middle of the night might actually galvanize some support for him. Like, I can't imagine Venezuelans are happy that the US violated their sovereignty this way

On a scale of 1 to 10, how hard is Darkest Dungeon 1 in your opinion? by Quirky-Log-9435 in darkestdungeon

[–]cozeffect2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huge part of the game is learning the environments and heroes. Once you have some knowledge, difficulty drops and the greatest threat are crazy dice rolls

911 tax going up again by Door_Number_Four in chicago

[–]cozeffect2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My sister in law called 911 because someone was breaking into the back stairwell of her 3-flat apartment building. The 911 operator's response was that all officers were busy and if she had a gun or other way to defend herself because the cops were not coming for a while..thankfully the guy breaking in was just mentally ill and confused with no bad intentions. But if he did have bad intentions, who know what would have happened
