Whether or not his lawyers can actually follow the local rules and properly state a claim will remain only conjecture until that time.
This isn't just a breach of local rules, that perhaps an out-of-jurisidiction lawyer may be forgiven for not knowing. No, these are the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, as promulgated by SCOTUS, that apply to every Federal Court in every Federal District in the United States, not something that can be forgiven as not knowing some arcane local rule.
This is deplorable, anyone other government official who was in the chat even if just 'listening' passively, should have called out and castigated the first posting of pending activities (i.e. strikes that had not occurred yet) and instructed not to post anything further that related to OPSEC and to keep it general and/or post-operation reports (even that is debateable, but at least it wouldn't put ongoing operations at risk).
If you read Ratcliffe's statement, it seems to be extremely narrow:
Ratcliffe said much the same: “My communications, to be clear, in the Signal message group were entirely permissible and lawful and did not include classified information.”
That may very wel be true (I haven't read the entire session in detail), Ratcliffe may not have been a sharer of classifield material, but he definitely was a reciever of it on a non-secure platform and said/did nothing about it.

That sounds awesome. Are you selling? How much, I'd like to buy one. I'm sure there are plenty of people - like thos who buy supplements from Alex Jones - that would be interested as well.
PS I'm looking to buy a bridge too, do you have any of those for sale?
Just had a look on steam as the game sounds interesting, but it hasn't actually been released, it's "Early Access", i.e., paid BETA (as in you pay the dev to be a BETA tester for them).
It looks cool, but I'll wait for it to actually be released.
One of the things that really confuses me about this saga is:
a never-before-seen participant named Jigar Kumar joined the discussion ... with the support of Dennis Ens and several other people who had never had a presence on the list, pressured Collin to bring on an additional developer to maintain the project.
How can some unknown randoms with no athority on anything apply pressure? To apply pressure you have to have some lever to pull. E.g., if these people had of been recognised maintainers of other core projects that use xz, e.g. Debian maintainers, kernel maintainers, well-known members of other distributions or core software (kernel, systemd, widely used DBs, Red Hat, etc.), people/organisations that apply funding (wiki foundation, Mozilla foundation, Apache) or provide you with funding, e.g. your boss at your day job, then, sure, they had levers to apply pressure with.
But some unknown randoms on the internet who have no history can't apply pressure. They have no levers, no authority to rely on. The only levers they have are the ones you imagine in your own mind.
The correct response from Collin to Kumar, Ens, Tan was "Who the fuck are you? Fuck off, eat shit and die."
Wait, so he wasn't (or at least claims he wasn't) drunk?
So while being in full control of his faculties he deliberately drove into the back of another car causing the death of the occupants?
Surely this warrants an escalataion of the charges to reckless endangerment or even murder (2nd degree, depending on how this jurisdiction enumerates its laws)?
Does the code interrogate the users browser or computer for information not strictly necessary for the delivery of the requested service.
e.g. Youtube doesn't need to know what plugins I'm running unrelated to video delivery (e.g. what codec Youtube can stream with is acceptable) to deliver the video. Ads are not a necessary part of delivering the video that I have requested - I didn't request ads.
a law requiring the adoption of age verification for users from local IP addresses to see adult content.
Considering local IP addresses (e.g. 192.168.0.0/16) are non-routable, it should be pretty easy to implement age-verification for addresses that should never reach them ...
So you are saying only initially supporting an upscaling technology that is available across all AMD, Nvida and Intel GPUs made over the last 8 years or so vs initially supporting only an Nvidia-only 2000, 3000 and 4000 generation restricted cards DLSS implementation is bad?
I. WHAT ARE BOOKS AND RECORDS?
...The recordkeeping rules require firms to retain, among other records, communications relating to their "business as such," and include trade blotters, asset and liability ledgers, income and expense ledgers, capital account ledgers, customer account ledgers, securities records, order tickets and trade confirmations....
https://www.finra.org/compliance-tools/books-and-records-checklist
Lists various types of data and records that must be kept. It does not say "unless it is only done verbally".
The usual practice if something is discussed over the phone or in a meeting with a customer etc.:
1) do the discussion (phone, in person, etc.)
2) send a written notice about the discussion, via email or traditional postal mail to the people involved in the discussion to get formal written confirmation on agreement as to what the discussion outcome is, something along the lines of:
TO: <list of people relevant to the referenced discussion>
Pursuant to our phone conversation on <date>,
we will exercise the agreed trade as follows:
<details of the agreement>
Therefore that written record is memorializing the verbal discussion held and the outcome of that discussion (the agreement).
The FINRA record keeping rules are extensive, and breaches of them can be severe, therefore it is common practice to ensure that all relevant records are captured (e.g. in case a written followup to a conversation confirming agreement of someone to do something with their account isn't made/gets missed/doesn't store properly) to record phone conversations with such and/or to at least have log entries establishing that a conversation with such occurred.
This could come in the form of… talking in person. Or over the phone.
Never heard of call logs/diaries/appointment logs? Minutes, note taking, summaries?
In regulated industries, all of the above apply to 'verbal' communications, i.e. having some sort of 'log' that states when the discussion occured (and between whom), and some sort of minute/note/summary about what was discussed.
If an employer provided phone is used, then at the least there will be a call log available from the telco, if not full recordings of conversations. If meetings are held, then there should be some sort of calendar/diary entry noting the appointment and at least an indication of what the meeting is for ("Thursday 10am next week meet with Fred to discuss the Smith account"). After (or during) the meeting or telephone call (even if it is fully recorded) then some sort of summary/minute should be added to the appropriate record-keeping system, which can be as simple as having an actual physical diary book in which you take notes during the meeting and keep locked up in your cabinet to be provided when requested for the designated record-keeping period.
Of course, if your intent is not to create such a record then there's not much that can be done, and this is what happens if you get caught.
I disagree. The point of exclusives is to sell consoles and ecosystems. I know plenty of people who own both a PS, XBox and a windows PC, all curent generation (or currentish for the PC - mostly not willing to upgrade to NV40 series or AMD7000 series GPUs). But if there weren't such exclusives, they'd be happy to only own one of the consoles.
If all (or nearly all) games were cross-platform (PS, XBox, Windows, Linux, MacOS), then a lot less hardware would be sold as most people would likely get a 'PC' (Windows, Linux, MacOS) for their ability to play games and the productivity uses as well. This would limit consoles to people who just want a games machine only, e.g. people who have no use for computers, or for the kids so they can play games without taking over the home computer or without having to get a 2nd (or 3rd ...) computer and all the problems that could cause in a family household.
The only way I can see Sony or MS seriously getting behind cross-platform is if they both abandoned their hardware console ambitions and just settled on a common platform, e.g. PCs (although if it was 'Windows' then that'd really be a win for MS).
Does this mean police will have to turn off their body cams when kids are around or when interacting with kids?
What about the always-on dashcams, wll polce (or anyone who has one) have to turn those off now in case they capture kids on footpaths or as passengers in other vehicels?
No more wide-angle photos from the air/space of cities?
Schools will have to disable CCTV security cameras?
[Note: The “no-man’s-land” reference is also weird. Putting aside the gender skew, this concept usually refers to territory between opposing forces’ trenches in World War I, where any person entering the zone would be machine-gunned to death by the opposing force and thus humans cannot survive there for long. How does that relate to Section 230? It doesn’t. If anything, Section 230’s immunity creates a zone that’s overpopulated with content that might not otherwise exist online–the opposite of a “no-man’s-land.” The metaphor makes no sense.]
Unless by 'man' they mean 'lawyer'. It's a no-lawyer's-land. Any lawyer trying to dredge-up liability gets shot down in a hail of bullets ...
Fake news!
Everyone knows that South Dakota is a myth, a goverment conspiracy alongside the moon landings, a spherical Earth, and that no aliens were at Area 54.
We all know that the moon landings never happened, the Earth is flat, Area 54 is an alien holiday resort, and South Dakota doesn't exist.

They need to put similar requirements on these, I've seen (but not bought) games in 'Early Access' for years without going to a full release.
Just had a look on steam as the game sounds interesting, but it hasn't actually been released, it's "Early Access", i.e., paid BETA (as in you pay the dev to be a BETA tester for them). It looks cool, but I'll wait for it to actually be released.
