Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What determines if an action is halted, versus allowed to continue while the action takers are being sued?English
6·11 days agoGenerally, a preliminary injunction will be called for if the action is harmful and irreversible, if delaying it while the question is resolved wouldn’t cause significant problems for the party being sued, and if the requesting party is likely to win the lawsuit anyway.

politics @lemmy.world•Supreme Court Allows Trump Plan to Restrict Mail-In Voting, for NowEnglish
5·22 days agoWhen I googled that was the list I got, but I know that California, at least, still has in-person voting too.
California has “universal mail-in voting”, not “mail-only”. Meaning every voter is eligible to vote by mail, not that in-person voting is unavailable.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do American kids rely on the school cafeteria than bringing their own food?English
11·23 days agoThe lunch arrangements will vary greatly by age/grade level. A high school is more likely to have the canteen style while an elementary school is more likely to have the cafeteria style. In either case, bringing a lunch from home is also reasonably common.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Given the argument that Data has Free Determination, Voyager is about how The Federation enslaves hologramsEnglish
8·25 days agoAnd TNG did break its own rules with Moriarty.
My headcanon is that Dr. Zimmerman and Lt. Barclay used the Moriarty program to discover how to make sentient holograms, and that’s why sentient holograms started showing up everywhere.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump signs new orders to restrict birthright citizenship after Supreme Court rulingEnglish
32·1 month ago“[…] the14th Amendment was passed exclusively in the aftermath of the Civil War, so that to ensure that the children of slaves would be citizens. It had no other meaning and purpose outside of that, and that’s been clear, obviously, since the day that it was passed.”
If that’s his attitude towards #14, how does he feel about #2?

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•PSA Huggingface is scraping GitHubEnglish
181·1 month agoA number of my repos are listed.
But the weird part is that it also lists a repo I don’t recognize. The repo does actually exist on my github account, but it’s marked as “ignored”, and the description says it was automatically exported from Google Code. The code seems to be a MacOS shareware file encryption tool called “BitClamp”, published circa 2008.
No idea how it got on my account.

politics @lemmy.world•Kentucky Gov Orders McConnell to Give a Real Update or Resign AlreadyEnglish
21·2 months agoSure. Whether or not its constitutional, etc. is really beside the point. Any official challenge to the governor’s declaration would necessarily involve demonstrating that McConnell is alive and well (or not). In either outcome, the question of the governor’s authority would be moot.
