  • "Patriotism is in decline" so instead of addressing the root of the issue and stop moving the country to the fascist right let's indoctrinate the kids. Maybe we can have an executive order to help do that. And call it the "stop indoctrinating our kids" or something like that. It's not like anyone will see the irony of naming it literally the exact opposite of what it's doing.

    Fuck this dystopic administration.

  • Not a clue. The only VR I have is PS4 and I'm not a huge fan of VR games. I just loved Black & White and since it's pov was already that of a god, it just seemed like it would have been perfect to adapt. Plus, I think third person VR would probably get around all the weird nausea issues.

  • Except XX and XY aren't the only combinations. There is just a single X, XXX. XXY, and XXY.

    And then there are just plain intersex individuals who produce both or neither reproductive cells. Chromosomes may not express themselves properly.

    Biology isn't as simple and clear cut as you make it out to be.

    And the only reason they used "at conception" is to signal that life begins at conception for the abortion argument. The executive order doesn't actually have anything to do anything with science, it only tries to use it as an excuse for their anti-trans beliefs.

  • It's actually title is District Attorney. But I court it's the prosecutor and the defendant.

    That's how it's supposed to work here. But the position can be political where the DA is elected and to appear "tough on crime" they prosecute even when they should throw out cases.

    Most cases don't even get to a court though. The majority get some sort of plea deal. The whole process is so fucked up, that a non-insignificant number confess even though they are innocent to just be done with the whole ordeal. Defending yourself can bankrupt someone and ruin their mental health.

    Our system is rife with corruption and, IMHO it should be a lot harder for police and district attorneys to ruin someone's life.

  • Police aren't prosecutors in the US. But they work closely with the district attorneys who do prosecute. As in they provide the evidence to them and provide their recount of the situation and circumstances to the prosecutor and if it goes to trial can be called to testify against you.

    Additionally, many police programs incentivize or measure an officers efficiency based on the number of arrests or tickets they produce.

    Often since the prosecutors and police work towards the same goal of securing a conviction, we lump them together even though they are different agencies.

  • How crazy of a healing factor are we talking about. Broken bones healed in a day? Or healing from a gunshot to the brain?

    Having a healing power that would let me lose an arm or a lung and regrow it would be awesome. But regrowing a brain would be problematic.

    Does healing include not aging? Or the tearing and rebuilding of muscles? It would be wild to have a healing factor that allows you to essentially body build in a single day.

  • I'm pretty much all kasa with the innovelli for my fans.

    Kasa require wifi for setup, but then have a local API for HA control. Just note that some features like motion detection aren't presented via API.

  • I have lots of ad blockers. But my father watches YouTube on the LG TV app. I don't live there anymore and hearing the ads from the other room became offensive to the family.

    It was easier to just buy a premium family plan and call it a day.
