It's good to see this instead of them pulling a North Korea. Climate change is a global issue, and they affect and are affected by the climate regardless of who is in power.

And hopefully, international engagement will show the people what it's like outside Taliban rule.

This is after the voice actor for the vortigaunts in HL2 and Ep1, Louis Gossett Jr, died earlier this year.

Will they find a new one? I think they're not planning on releasing more Half-Life games.

Dell, HP, Asus, MSI...? There are plenty of brands doing that.

Yes. This is neither news nor an article. Report it.

Anything, really. The supreme court said the president has immunity for any official acts.

If we're talking about actual need, the answer is zero. The Nintendo Switch does not feature on Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

But how many OP should buy depends on how much they're willing to spend. One is enough for family games and taking turns. If everyone wants their own to play head-to-head multiplayer, yeah you'll have to shell out for multiple consoles.

No. Even if a house is unlocked, the fourth amendment guarantees "the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures".

What constitutes "unreasonable", is of course, up to a judge.

If a cop can look in your window from the porch and see a meth lab, yeah, they're going to come back with a warrant, mostly because they can't just pick up the house and take it to evidence. If your phone is lying unlocked, and they see something obviously criminal on the screen, they're going to take it right then and there.

How does it work for stuff like bank apps? Do they freak out about it?

And does it require unlocking the bootloader? I prefer to keep mine locked if possible.

Or even if they've seized it unlawfully. Or if it's been stolen by a regular thief, a cybercriminal, the mafia, or a cartel.

To confiscate anything, unless it's lying openly, you need a warrant.

If a cop sees an unlocked phone with evidence of a crime on it, that doesn't need a warrant. If it's locked and they only have the suspicion of evidence, they need a warrant. Same as with entering a building or drilling a safe.

A World of Warcraft subscription is not a human right. Everyone makes a cost-benefit decision about whether they can afford it.

The type of militia is not really relevant. Heller disregarded the part about the militia entirely. Regardless of equipment or whether it was organized at the federal, state, or city level, or even independently organized, it's still mentioned.
