CNBC doesn't mention it, but other coverage says China has filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization. It's weird how little the WTO comes up in relation to Trump's trade war.

The without prejudice part is in the article:

The DOJ had asked Ho to toss the case “without prejudice,” which would have allowed charges to be refiled against the mayor in the future.

As for why that could be bad:

Ho, in his order on Wednesday, wrote that dismissing the case without prejudice “would create the unavoidable perception that the Mayor’s freedom depends on his ability to carry out the immigration enforcement priorities of the administration.

The judge also said it would create the perception that Adams, who is seeking re-election this year, “might be more beholden to the demands of the federal government than to the wishes of his own constituents.”

“That appearance is inevitable, and it counsels in favor of dismissal with prejudice,” Ho wrote.

Legal analysts predict challenges, citing potential overreach and conflict with congressional authority.

So a standard Trump executive order then.

ABC already settled one lawsuit from Trump since the election, maybe this will teach them settling won't stop the harassment.

The title of the post matches the title of the article, this isn't a case of a poster editorializing.

Didn't the funding bill a couple of weeks ago give Trump more tariff power? Why didn't this guy speak up sooner?

According to this non-paywalled coverage, there are times when the filibuster doesn't apply to repealing laws:

The 1996 CRA gives Congress a 60-day window to repeal federal regulations with a simple majority vote in each chamber and the president’s signature. The clock resets in a new session of Congress for rules finalized toward the end of the previous congressional session.

Republican lawmakers are also eyeing CRA measures to repeal the CFPB’s larger participant rule for digital payment companies and its ban on the use of medical debt in consumer credit reports.

An x1 slot is an x1 slot, the PCIe version will downgrade but there will still only be one lane because that's all the slot physically has connections for. It will effectively be a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.

Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn't going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.
