@kyrah@Ronald__Rump Wat? The Doppler effect shifts frequencies, not brightness. The picture also appears to show the disk nearly flat, so there wouldn't be much relative velocity difference to an observer on earth.
@GrugIV @williamlegate @JasonPoirier @Femme_Mal LOL, just 20 minutes ago you were saying the hacking of republicans was alleged by the DNC with no proof.
Of course Putin poked around to see which side held the best shot at getting the sanctions lifted. Republicans are still Americans, and thus, still the enemy.
@GrugIV @Femme_Mal@williamlegate You've watched too many TV shows. Do you think they walk out with a VHS tape in hand? The bank calls their surveillance provider who pulls the relevant video from their servers. Oh, wait, that's a third party the bank pays. Better seize all those servers.
@GrugIV @Femme_Mal@williamlegate Wait, I thought the DNC was supposed to trust the FBI with full access to their server. But now trust of intelligence agencies is repugnant.
@GrugIV @Femme_Mal@williamlegate The DNC was the victim, not the criminal. If a bank is robbed, the FBI asks for relevant video surveillance, not all video forever, all of the banks documents, and the contents of every safe deposit box.
@GrugIV @williamlegate Er... the Republican organizations (RNC, RNCC) have disclosed that they were hacked, from the information they provided to the FBI, the FBI has concluded those hacks were also carried out by the Russians.
@GrugIV @Femme_Mal@williamlegate Why do they need access? They have the forensic info, they got it from Crowdstrike, whom the DNC hired to investigate the hack. What access did the FBI ask for that was denied?
@GrugIV @williamlegate Cooperating with an investigation means providing relevant information. Not full blown access to every single piece of information.
@GrugIV @williamlegate New York FBI agents leaked info about Comey's letter to the Trump campaign. Republican campaign organizations were also hacked. Would you have expected them to hand over all their data, relevant to the hack or not, to Jim Comey's FBI? Would you consider them stupid for doing so?
@GrugIV @williamlegate The vast majority of the logs are irrelevant, ordinary info. The FBI would neither need nor want all of that. If burglars break into a bank, the FBI is going to want video from the time of the breakin, not hours upon hours of ordinary customers walking in and out.
@GrugIV @williamlegate Because they would be essentially losing all control over who could see very sensitive political information irrelevant to the hack. The FBI is known to have pro-Trump agents who are willing to leak info to the opposition.
@GrugIV @williamlegate What you want is the forensic information (access logs, records of privilege invocations, etc.), and if the DNC is paying for managed services, they don't have that stuff, their vendor does.
@GrugIV @williamlegate There is no physical "server" to hand over. For an organization the size of the DNC, "server" is an abstraction composed of a bunch of software and data that runs on whatever hardware is available at the time.
@rgr8house@NBCNews@higginsgggg The prosecutor certainly behaved as if he knew that white jurors would vote to convict on flimsy evidence, or else he wouldn't have gone to trial. Repeatedly even. Of the six trials, two ended in hung juries. They had black jurors on them. Evidently, the prosecutor was correct.
@rgr8house@NBCNews@higginsgggg It would be awesome if nobody did. If I know nothing about someone, I don't assume anything about them. But in this case, I know that these white jurors voted to convict on flimsy evidence, and I know that the prosecutor tried to eliminate all the black jurors.
