Biden worries ‘extreme’ supreme court can’t be relied on to uphold rule of law

  • No. That's for Congress to determine in an impeachment.

  • Every other city gets to use their full city metro area, both they love using St. Louis as a boogeyman because we’re split differently and they can count only the city downtown area for crime

    Says who? I checked the FBI crime statistics. and they have rows for the STL MSA for 2016, 2017, and 2018, though not in the latest one from 2019, probably because they didn't report the numbers to the FBI.

    • US health officials propose using a cheap antibiotic as a ‘morning-after pill’ against STDs

  • I thought we were supposed to be more restrictive with antibiotics, not less.

  • I recall an exchange, I think it was between Obama and some Republican senator, but for the life of me I haven't been able to find it since I read it. It went something like "I'm not going to vote on this bill without something in exchange." "Okay, I can make sure we get some funding for some project. So, this means I can count on your vote?" "Oh, no, I would never vote for that."

    There is no negotiating. You try to meet them half way, and they'll take a step back. Every time.

  • Which is why Congress has the power to remove them if they fail to meet "good behavior". But Congress is also abdicating their responsibility to democracy.

  • Can you put something in the sidebar to clarify whether this community is primarily for US news? We do have the worldnews community explicitly for non-US news.

  • Even DNA isn't that straightforward. Epigenetics is a whole subfield dedicated to studying how and why genes in your DNA are or are not expressed.

    • Connecticut enacts its most sweeping gun control law since the Sandy Hook shooting

    Jump

  • Yeah. Maybe something you wanted just popped up on sale. Collectors, target shooters, hunters... Plenty of legitimate reasons.

  • Man's not got many birthdays left. There will be church next week.

    • Auto loans could pose a bigger threat to young Americans than student loans. For the first time, the outstanding volume of auto loan debt just surpassed student loan debt.

  • Has it really worked, though?

    • Apple blames iOS 17 bugs and apps like Instagram for making iPhone 15s run hot

    • The Great Wall of China Has Suffered 'Irreversible' Damage After Two Workers Excavated a Shortcut Through the Cultural Relic

    Jump

  • Shitty, but it also looks like that section of wall is just earthwork. Maybe a professional will chime in and say there's something valuable about it, but given that it's already mostly gone from erosion, I'm not sure if anything was actually lost here.

    • Google adds a switch for publishers to opt out of becoming AI training data

  • This doesn't change anything. They're still violating copyright law if they scrape any data.

    For search results, nobody really cared, because it was useful to everyone. Now they're reprocessing it into output and competing with the original sites. That's a big no-no.

  • If there is a valid medical reason for it, yes.

  • Exactly, burning. If we do away with the burning, trading fossil fuels for environmentally friendly alternatives, we can reduce or eliminate greenhouse gases, the biggest contributor to climate change.
