    A cat fight goes like this.

    Whichever cat can ignore the other cat the longest and with the most derision wins

    guy who upgraded an app server was a little upset with me that I defended apple's actions for telling the gov't to go fuck themselves, he justified it as they were terrorists and that the company who owned the phone should be the one that makes the final call.

    Sorry guy who did the server, it just doesn't sit well with me, feels like a 4th amendment violation and I'd rather Apple not give away that shit.

    I didn't say much when you started going on about terrorists because I didn't want to argue politics at work with an independent vendor.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    I'm pretty sure this isn't D&D 3.5e and I could beat a housecat in a fair fight.

    Yes. I am certain that all of us could fight a housecat successfully.

    Girlfriend hasn't come out to a lot of the people she sees in non-professional capacity (or professional capacity, but w/e).

    She has suggested trolling groups of friends of hers as a method of coming out.

    This is a thing I have done with my own coming out, so clearly she is the best and has the best ideas.

    Dead people don't have 4th amendment rights, and they have a warrant.

    I'm against it because the government should not be trying to force weaker encryption on us. Encryption is weak enough as it is. I read about rainbow tables, and predictable salt creation and damn near shit my britches.

    If the federal government can backdoor into my iphone. Anonymous can backdoor into my iphone, and Israel, and Russia. The government is terrible at keeping secrets, and there isn't a security clearance on math.

    bro could you though

    could any of us

    Yes. I am certain that all of us could fight a housecat successfully.

    One time, when I was 14 or 15 years old, we brought a stray cat into the house, as it was a blustery, bitterly cold winter day, no fit place for any living creature

    He was an orange tabby and we brought him in and we gave him water and food, and let him have free roam of the house for the night

    The following morning, I stroll down the hall to the bathroom, shirtless, intending to take a shower

    As I reach the bathroom, I come ankles-to-face with this orange tabby, who's sitting expectantly on the linoleum tiles of the bathroom floor

    We regard one another for perhaps a full second before he leaps and, all 20 claws fully extended, suspends himself from the flesh of my chest

    The flesh yields, unfortunately, and our hapless feline friend instead slides down my torso, claws digging a trench the whole way down until he hits the waistband of my pants and falls to the floor

    The lesson here is that I am not so confident in my ability to win a fight with a housecat, particularly if I am not appropriately attired

    beat the devil four times a week - fiddle game? cosmic battle? jesus? what happens 4 times a week? a theater performance or something? is there a religion with 4 services a week standard?

    cheated the hangman at the brink, more than once - close calls? down but not out?

    some religious stuff here and in elki's first riddle - but not the last two riddles:

    "With his cousin against his cousin for the two's telegrams did not help. Was many things, but a bigamist not one."

    "He made many for America's game, and put on a few different uniforms. But let's just talk about the game. They were out of the playoffs hunt, nothing to play for, and facing the Yankees. Goddamn Yankees. He's been losing all season, is gonna be traded when it's done, is famous for what he used to be but what does that count for now. His love life wasn't much better. So he takes the field, thinking about his pain, thinking about love, thinking about love lost, thinking about his dad. He pitched a perfect game. He's done. He finds her."

    This case the government has a good case for its push.

    The real owner of the phone, the county, said it is okay. They have a warrant. The user is dead by police after shooting at police. And thus feels all the need of the forth amendment for a proper search and seizure I would say.

    Problem is the county never installed the app to let them break into the phone which they bought. The FBI fucked up guessing passwords. And they are trying to do a last ditch effort to cover it up.

    Really they should ask darpa, my guess they are did this. Though I remember there was some James Bond level stuff for the finger print opening and I am surprised they aren't going that route.

    Yeah, just because this guy is dead doesn't mean the next guy will be. That's where I'm uncomfortable.

    I may not be 50 years old, but I know damn well the government is a bunch of shit bags when they get power.
