Here is a great article explaining the extent of the immunity.

The 119-page decision affords the executive immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts” in two layers—core constitutional acts that are absolutely protected, and presumptive immunity for official acts that are not core that can be overcome only if the government can show that applying a criminal prohibition on that act wouldn’t encroach on the functions of the executive branch. Unofficial acts are not protected.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but ordering mass executions seems to be barely in the presumptive immunity area, and also would be political suicide. There would be serious repercussions if any president ordered the excecution of any innocent American.

I’m curious about your source of information about the restrictions on what evidence can be presented to the jury. I hadn’t heard that before, and I’d like to learn more.

I’ve really been enjoying the podcast series Crash Course : The Universe. It’s helped me to understand what quantum fields are a little better. It’s probably not going inti much depth, but I love the way John Green hosts it, and I’m having a blast!

Glad to hear it! Mixxx has been one of my favorite projects to use, and they always surprise me with new features whenever I open it up!

My bad, I chose the first example video I could find that was less than five minutes long. I previewed it, but without audio since I was at work.

Hmm, it looks like the first few messages there are doing initial setup. After that, it looks like it’s having trouble loading some of its libraries. Then it isn’t able to read your sound devices. I haven’t run Mixxx with nixos or pipewire, but maybe try the flatpak? Sorry it isn’t running out of the box for you.

Mixxx can do all of those things, it’s a free alternative to Serato DJ and similar. It’s super straightforward to playback audio slowed to the exact BPM you need, loop it, and/or play it in a different key. Give it a try!

Let me know if you need any help.

Paper is renewable. The fuel used to transport it is not. And let’s not forget the energy that goes into manufacturing and printing on the paper.

Even a taxi company would have at least his phone number from the caller ID tho. I don’t think guys like this really think the process through
