I tried running mint on a new laptop I bought.

Because the hardware was newer I ran into issue after issue trying to get various drivers and basic things functioning.

Moved to Endeavor, smooth as ice, everything just worked.

So at least from my experience hardware age seems to matter too.

This didn’t used to be the case until the Thompkins ruling amended the Miranda ruling in 2010.

Its unfortunate how difficult it is to stay aware of basic rights for lay persons with decisions like this throwing out old assumptions.

Oh snap

I had to explain to a friend recently why

“I’m at Steve’s house”

Was fine but

“I’m in Steve’s house”

Was weird. Like, get out of there before you get arrested.
