I'dv deleted the default, it's never come back.

Mostly correct. Trump was found guilty of significantly inflating the value of his properties already. There are still charges over falsification of business records, insurance fraud, and conspiracy to commit fraud. Those don't have guilty verdicts yet. Damages haven't been decided, as you note.

It's also worth noting that this is a civil trial. That means that refusal to answer questions can result in "adverse inference" where the assumption will be that the worst possible answer was given (an admission of guilt). It may still be worthwhile to refuse to answer, e.g. under 5th amendment protections to avoid incriminating oneself on criminal charges. Criminal charges can be brought based on testimony given in civil trials, but adverse inference isn't enough to get criminal charges.

Pretty much how I DM.

Bosses have prep time. Glyph of warding can be cast on a page in a book, with trigger conditions specified by the caster. E.g. when a good-aligned creature with ≥8 int comes within 10ft of it.

Explosive runes are 5d8 damage (dex save for half) per glyph.

Nothing says it can't be cast on more than one page.

A 50 page book with a glyph on every page means 100 dex saves for 5d8 each. Evasion is nice but you'll fail a save eventually.

Your "friendly" neighborhood lich has had time to prepare dozens of these. That tempting library full of magical books might just be a TPK.

As a "consolation prize" at least the player gets to roll 100 d20s at once! Multiple times if they survive the first book.

The players know that. Their characters don't.

You mean SNI, not ESNI. ESNI is the Encrypted Server Name Indication that gets around that, though the newer ECH (Encrypted Client Hello) is better in many ways. Not all sites support either though.

They were pushing that line before the civil war. Claimed that forcing Christianity on them made up for the slavery.

Yip. Everything is always going to shit, but manure makes good fertilizer.

Encrypt then sign. Always authenticate before any other operations like decryption. Don't violate the cryptographic doom principle.

What's red and bad for your teeth? A brick.

What's blue and bad for your teeth? A very fast brick.

Yeah, DRM has always scared away all the users. That's why nobody adopted DVDs, that "Netflix" company failed to create a video streaming service, Steam never became a dominant game distributor, etc.

Most people won't notice or care. Most companies' customers will buy what's advertized to them. It's very dangerous to assume consumers want freedom, we need to fight for it, not ignore the threat due to naïve idealism.

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive porpoises I think you are wrong.

In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. If you don't tow the line you'll never hone in on the truth. Gorilla warfare will be used against you if you don't agree!

Hell no.

They're almost entirely scams. I don't support tricking people out of their money.

They also ruined crypto as an abbreviation for cryptography, and spam every cryptography-related discussion forum. Even the NIST post-quantum standardization list has been getting their spam.
