  • My understanding is that juries in America dont really deliberate on a verdict or a sentence. Thats up to the judge.

    Instead, I believe they're presented with all the facts and arguments, then determine based on that information whether or not the the prosecution's claims hold up.

    So its more of a "based on the facts you have been presented with, do you think the defendant did X", rather than "should the defendant be punished for this crime?"

    Most Trump supporters understand that he's a criminal, but believe that his actions are in service of the greater good. So in a situation like this the distinction between "do the facts line up" and "should he be punished" is an important one.

  • It's the comic sans of art movements. It works really well for what it was designed for (eye-catching, inoffensive, and simple) but its both overused and misused in enough places that people have soured on it over the years.

  • This is almost certainly the cause.

    Most captchas treat connections from a known VPN exit node as a red flag because most of the spammers use them to hide their location and it's a pretty small minority of the total traffic so not many people will complain about it. It's also way easier to do that than try and find some heuristic way to identify malicious behavior.

    If they also get some extra data from you that they can sell once you disable it, then all the better for the company too.

  • Its especially bad these days to the point where im not even sure how to find good results anymore, but 5 years ago things were much better (or at least astroturfing was way less common).

  • The only use reviews have is to make sure that the app youre downloading is most likely the original and not a malicious lookalike.

    Artificial content has poisoned the web to the point that adding "reddit" to the end of google searches so that you could get real human content was commonplace.

    I miss the days where you had to learn HTML if you wanted to share your opinions online.

  • The argument is that "we would like to study these works of art in a purely academic setting, and are willing to limit access to academics only, we just need to make sure it's going to work even if you guys stop supporting it"

    The corporations involved seem to read this argument as "we are looking to start a game streaming service, please give us free access to all your games to distribute at our whim"

  • To be fair, comparing terminal to the registry is not comparing apples to apples. The registry is more like a complicated config file full of barely documented options. Still miserable to work in, but that's beside the point.

    The terminal equivalent to windows is Powershell which id say is much more favorable.

  • I'm about 60% through Ori and the Blind forest. Its curently scratching an itch I have for metroidvania games.

    However, I learned that instead of patching the original game or releasing a DLC, they just made a re-release and im not buying the game a second time just for a new area and some improved QoL with fast travel.

  • I think most people here will be grinding their own coffee per batch. It's typically step 1 or 2 when getting into the hobby, the other being buying better coffee.

    That being said, if you do have pre-ground coffee try to use it as quickly as possible as it will lose flavor much faster than whole beans. Store it in a dark, air-tight container.

    That tin box you have was originally used for loose leaf tea and is widely available if you want more
