“proven science”

Vaccines are a good example here. Handwashing is another. We've had empirical proof on the latter since the 1850s, but it's STILL super hit or miss whether people will bother :(

Is that a fact? Are you sure? Will you recant if it comes out that the police did, in fact, plant it?

Nitpick the lawyer's phrasing all you like; it won't actually change any of the facts of the case, whatever they may be. Myself, I'm not going to jump to "why bother having a trial? The police arrested him; he's clearly guilty as sin" based on a Lemmy comment!

Almost like the lawyer thinks "they didn't follow procedure" is an easier legal argument than "the police dept is trying to frame my client".

Civ 3 works well with a warmonger style

Ah, gotcha, yeah, that makes sense.

My own city has pretty good bike lane coverage, but it's similar -- cars have to cross over the bike lane to get into the turn lane.

Basic decency...gah. Yeah, I wish. :(

Not sure what "American car centrism" has to do with Chinese traffic regulations tbh

I found this article. My takeaways were:

  1. No driving in bus lanes during certain times of day.
  2. No using the shoulder as a turn lane.
  3. No using a bike lane as a turn lane.

I think lack of goodwill plays into this, too. A lot of smaller sites can get away with stuff like "OK guys, the servers aren't free, so we need to run ads." and then have people super thrilled with them if there's an option to limit or disable ads for donors.

On reddit, I think the attitude would basically be "get fucked, spez!"

O...kay? I never said you HAD a responsibility to buy MH Wilds. I'm really not sure where your vehement reaction is coming from.

Ah, yep, def when they called it Firefox.

Indeed. This is 100% on management for not prioritizing PC and rushing the release dates. Cheaping out is right, lazy...not so much IMO.
