Peters remained unrepentant and unapologetic during and after the trial, asserted that she did nothing wrong. Law enforcement investigators, prosecutors, a jury and a judge disagreed. After she was convicted, she claimed that the Deep State rigged her trial because the judge didn't allow her to present evidence that people in Serbia rigged our 2020 election.

Where's your rich pillow idiot now?

Peters called a Pastor from California as her first witness who asked the court to sentence her to a program run by a church. He likely annoyed the court by weaving into his plea the suggestion that she was unjustly convicted and prosecuted for political reasons.

It always helps to accuse the judge of being biased.

Peters next called Douglas Frank ("Dr. Frank"), who Mike Lindell made a movie about based on his "findings" about the machines called, "Scientific Proof." He likely did Peters no favors by defiantly suggesting that Peters was a "patriot," and that officials with the state government are to blame for the entire case and are covering up their misconduct. The judge interrupted him at one point and made it clear that he could continue to make that argument but it wasn't helping. He concluded by saying that the whole case should be thrown out.

It's not the person who cheated at fault but the system that made them cheat!

Alex Schroeder testified next for Peters. He was a former clerk in another county and current County Commissioner. He claimed that there was a government conspiracy in Colorado to prosecute Peters to send a message to try and intimidate other clerks around the state to keep them from coming forward with evidence of fraud. He complained about Dominion voting machines and said they should have never been certified. When the judge asked him why the hand recount showed exactly the same results as the machines, Schroeder said that didn't matter to him and clerks should still have to right to conduct their own forensic examination of the voting machine software.

We don't need to base our conclusions on facts; we just know how we feel and that's a rational way to live our lives.

Seriously, this lady got the hard time that she deserves. It took a long fucking time to come about but I'm happy with this outcome other than her raising money off the celebrity of it. Hopefully, she is forgotten by the maga crowd once she is out of sight.

California Becomes 1st State Post-‘Roe’ to Sue a Catholic Hospital for Denying Emergency Abortion in c/[email protected]

Bonta’s office stressed that time is of the essence in this case because Mad River Community Hospital, where Nusslock was able to receive life-saving treatment after being denied by Providence, is set to shutter its labor and delivery unit this month. This will leave Providence as the only hospital with a labor and delivery unit in the entire county: “The next person in Anna’s situation will face an agonizing choice of risking a multi-hour drive to another hospital or waiting until they are close enough to death for Providence to intervene,” Bonta’s office said in a press release.

That's horrifying.

Men Stole Over $1 Million From DoorDash Delivery Drivers By Impersonating Them to Customer Service (www.404media.co)
 

When faced with these requests, DoorDash customer service reps would ask for some form of verification. The indictment states that the men would use the personal information of the Dasher, such as their phone number, date of birth, recent transactions, or even the last four digits of their driver’s license, to authenticate themselves.

NASA Bought Facial Recognition Tech Clearview AI (www.404media.co)
 

Clearview AI is a facial recognition company that can take a photo of the face of the target, and run it against the company’s database of around 30 billion faces. Clearview AI obtained many of these images by scraping the web, including sites and services like Facebook, YouTube, and Venmo. When the New York Times first reported on Clearview in January 2020, a researcher who provided documents to the Times said Clearview “appears to be crossing the Rubicon on facial recognition technology.” Often the tool is used in the form of an app installed on customers’ phones.

Paralyzed Jockey Loses Ability to Walk After Manufacturer Refuses to Fix Battery For His $100,000 Exoskeleton (www.404media.co)
 

Apologies for posting a pay walled article. Consider subscribing to 404. They’re a journalist-founded org, so you could do worse for supporting quality journalism.

Trained repair professionals at hospitals are regularly unable to fix medical devices because of manufacturer lockout codes or the inability to obtain repair parts. During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, broken ventilators sat unrepaired for weeks or months as manufacturers were overwhelmed with repair requests and independent repair professionals were locked out of them. At the time, I reported that independent repair techs had resorted to creating DIY dongles loaded with jailbroken Ukrainian firmware to fix ventilators without manufacturer permission. Medical device manufacturers also threatened iFixit because it posted ventilator repair manuals on its website. I have also written about people with sleep apnea who have hacked their CPAP machines to improve their basic functionality and to repair them.

PS: he got it repaired.

Qualcomm Approached Intel About a Takeover in Recent Days (www.wsj.com)
 

First four paragraphs (cause paywall won't let most people see this).

Chip giant Qualcomm made a takeover approach to rival Intel in recent days, according to people familiar with the matter, in what would be one of the largest and most consequential deals in recent years.

A deal for Intel, which has a market value of roughly $90 billion, would come as the chip maker has been suffering through one of the most significant crises in its five-decade history.

A deal is far from certain, the people cautioned. Even if Intel is receptive, a deal of that size is all but certain to attract antitrust scrutiny, though it is also possible it could be seen as an opportunity to strengthen the U.S.’s competitive edge in chips. To get the deal done, Qualcomm could intend to sell assets or parts of Intel to other buyers.

Intel—once the world’s most valuable chip company—had seen its shares drop roughly 60% so far this year before The Wall Street Journal reported on the approach. As recently as 2020, the company had a market value above $290 billion. The stock closed up over 3% Friday after the Journal’s report.
