Thanks! It doesn’t work through a regular web browser or with Voyager.

Looks like it does work with Eternity as well though.

Was that supposed to be a spoiler tag? What client does that work with?

So, it is possible to incentivize clouds to rain with lasers. It’s part of “cloud seeding” tech that is already done today in Dubai.

But this just triggers rain on certain clouds, it’s not going to trigger a hurricane.

What do you mean by “allow you to kill a 3rd party”?

Like if rioters are breaking into your window and start trying to pull you out through it, then you floor it and kill someone else in the crowd who wasn’t actively breaking into your car?

This is something that’s going to vary from state to state, but ultimately it will be a case by case decision where a jury will decide if the use of deadly force was reasonable.

You will be judged based on other’s perception of the events, not based solely whether you yourself thought you were in danger or not.

So, someone trying to “drive slowly” through a group of protesters would probably be found at fault, while a car that was stuck trying to wait patiently suddenly having a Molotov cocktail thrown on it would be judged differently. Even then they will need to consider whether you could have just gotten out of your car and run.

It really bothers me when journalists don’t list out which laws specifically were passed/signed.

Even better if they could link to the bill text itself, yet instead they just link to a similar article on their own site.

Nah, Cygnus beat you by about 14 min.

(On a serious note, had you already heard about someone else being convicted under the new security law? It also sounds like they’re talking about how the sentence was increased from 2 years to 7-10 years.)

Mythbusters did an episode on this.

2 poppyseed bagels were enough to have them test positive: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MythBusters_pilot_episodes#Episode_P3_–_"Poppy-Seed_Drug_Test"

They remained positive for at least 8 more hours and by the next morning they had tested negative again.

Same as it ever was.

I doubt this was the case during (and for at least a time after) WWII. But maybe a history buff can correct me. I haven’t looked too deeply into how the justice system handled Nazis that far back.

Woah, I wish I had known about this sooner. Thanks!

Then if they go this route, they better make sure that they clearly define what they mean by a “Recommendation Algorithm” or an “interests-based algorithm” because the opinions of individuals won’t hold up in court.

If it’s not defined an attorney could easily argue that Lemmy’s “Scaled” algorithm is a “recommendation algorithm” and you would hope that the judge understood enough about programming to know where to draw the line.

What economic concept are you proposing that’s better than the current systems in place?

At least government regulations can help keep capitalism in check, but taking that too far leads to monopolies and dictatorships.

Here’s a good documentary on what’s going on:

From the looks of it, the best chance you have to escape is before they get you to the river. So if you ever find yourself in a situation where you’re travelling for a job in one of these countries, be aware of the signs, and escape before it’s too late.

So, if you get picked up from the airport and you’re supposed to go to a hotel only 10 min away, but that turns into a drive for a few hours, do whatever you can to get out. Anywhere is better than the destination at the end of that drive.

[Meyer] also expressed frustration that Cody is the only official expected to face criminal prosecution.

“What I feel is going on here is that he’s been set up as the fall guy,” Meyer said.

Edit: There was a bit of hot mic somewhere nearby so you could hear a little bit before he sat down:

RS: “Hi Mister Trump, just take a seat over there, thank you.”
DT: “Uh, how are you? How are you?”
RS: “Good”

Music dies and mic turns on:

RS: “Mr President, we so appreciate you giving us an hour of your time. I want to start by addressing the elephant in the room, sir. A lot of people did not think that it was appropriate for you to be here today. You have pushed false claims about some of your rivals from Nikki Haley to former President Barack Obama saying…”
