That's Republicanism and that left the US Republican Party years ago.

Now it's all about Conservatism through any means. And it's not even pure Conservatism: it's heavily tainted with Tribalism.

Is this Google AI?

I didn't really care about this thread until I read this comment.

Worse: From a random citizen that was tried in a court of law and found guilty. The governor used his powers to claim absolution (or worser still: justification).

Of course they have milk! With vodka and some Kalua/Bailey's!

The Who were kinda silly (eg: Boris the Spider) in their early years.

I have a PS5. Got FF7:Remake the minute it came out. Now I'm in a position where I want to play Rebirth so much I want to experience it on my best device, my PC.

VSCode will add a yellow box around the character and tell you it's an uncommon glyph.

To note, this came about because it could be valid code and it's a security risk from copy/pasting malicious code. See:

That's three ad-hominem attacks. But sure, those are your "arguments". Well argued. /s

But of course, when you have nothing meaningful to say, you just attack people. I guess that's to be expected. Just blame the person when you get called out. You could have taken this as a lesson and admitted you were wrong, and learned, but you decided to double down and insult people instead. Well argued.

Stop deflecting and stop trying to gaslight me. If prisons are the same as jails in this regard then why dispute? Why even bring it up? You're retroactively trying to save face.

I am fully aware how prisons and jails are similar and how they are different. You're the one who was trying to correct somebody and then got downvoted to oblivion.

Oh, but now you were just randomly bringing an unrelated technical point about how jails can hold innocent people now that you've been confronted with the facts. /s

I don't have to distract with cheap ad-hominem attacks when I can quote your words right back to you:

Prison. Not jail.

Jails are temporary holding areas until you get to see a judge. Which means you could still be innocent at that point.

Yep. That's the right definition. Not what you said. You said jail is for innocent people. You also said the definition doesn't differ no matter where you are and the link clearly defined the US can have a different interpretation (see interchangeable use).

You should read what you link to (emphasis mine).

Jail and prison are often used interchangeably as places of confinement. If you want to be specific jail can be used to describe a place for those awaiting trial or held for minor crimes, whereas prison describes a place for criminals convicted of serious crimes.

You said:

Jails are temporary holding areas until you get to see a judge. Which means you could still be innocent at that point.

You can be convicted and in jail, which makes perfect sense in Monopoly, since it's generally for a shorter period of time. They are both synonymous for the purpose of imprisoning somebody but different on how drastic the crimes you are behind bar for. In my opinion you should be in jail for minor crimes and not put in prison and it's perfect for Monopoly.

2.54cm is easier for me because I do 2.04x + ½x.

8 inches? 16.32 + 4 = 20.32

12? 24.48 + 6 = 30.48

30? 61.20 + 15 = 76.20

60? 122.40 + 30 = 152.40

I don't know why, but I find this easier. Maybe because it's 4x, 2x, and ½ and my brain doesn't like adding 32 and working in 1.8.

Should be something more analogous to its mechanics, like "analog". Wait a minute...

Show me potato salad!

While I disagree that the game was unplayable, I first played the game emulated at 4K@60K with AutoHDR (surprisingly decent) and it's almost criminal how poor it looks on native hardware by comparison. The game scales really well.

Maybe with a new Nvidia kit we'll get DLSS and Frame Gen. And I expect ToTK to get a new port.
