My point is that the part about the prosecutor only applies to the last part of the sentence. It’s the newspaper doing an “allegedly” thing. He was sentenced to life for these crimes that the prosecutor says he did. That way if it turns out he didn’t actually do it and later goes free, the newspaper will be less likely to get sued for libel.

The article later goes on to talk about how he was convicted by a jury and sentenced to life by a judge.

According to prosecutors is describing “…for plotting to attack FBI agents and seeking to incite a “civil war,”” not the sentencing.

I taught my mom to play by using a couple of starter decks, giving a short overview of the objective and what the parts of the card meant, and then played a couple of matches with our cards revealed to each other. You just need to be patient, willing to explain anything, and be generous with allowing take backs and reminding about any rules they missed. And remember that if you want someone to keep playing with you, they need to be able to have fun too.

This isn’t an issue with the Full self driving that people signed up for the beta for. It happens with the cruise control too.

Yeah, Tesla’s don’t have ordinary cruise control. They have adaptive cruise control and autopilot, which is adaptive cruise control + lane keeping. Both just use the camera. If you’re hoping to rest your foot during a cross country drive, then you better prepare for it to lurch every time it sees a shadow. Once every couple of miles if the road has enough shadows.

This press release is from 2023. Not sure why it was posted like it was news.

I think mistakes like this are usually caused by someone changing their mind on one thing they wrote and forgetting to proofread the whole thing to see if it still makes sense. I imagine this sentence started out as “Rock the size of a small boulder”.

Allowing Google to run an ad campaign targeting their members wasn’t the benefit Blue Cross was talking about, that’s a side effect from them not turning off the data sharing option in the Google analytics settings.

The analytics data is used for prioritizing development work. If a tool they have on the website relies on a library that isn’t compatible with a new version of React, for instance, do they know how many people use it? Having analytics allows you to decide what’s worth spending the development time to maintain.

The analytics would be for the web development team to see which pages/features are used. Usually a product manager uses that data for setting priorities on what gets worked on.

It was his stepmom’s gun, not the mom’s. Article was probably edited at some point, since I see at least one place where they forgot the step part.

I have a bottle of the Dr. Doctor syrup in my pantry. I forgot I had it tbh, since I haven’t been drinking soda for a while. It’s a decent brand if you have a machine that carbonates water.

A real judge. Immigration judges are employees of the Department of Justice and follow the orders of the Attorney General. He has another case in front of a federal judge in New Jersey who can question that determination.

If you turn the disc over, you can actually count the rings without needing to cut into it! This lets you skip having to glue the disc back together after checking the age.

I had to do this to get the factory oil filter off my motorcycle. Went through 3 different oil filter removal tools and all I achieved was rounding off all the edges of the filter.

Retailers do it because they pay a penalty when a chargeback happens and payment processors will cut ties with them if their fraud rate is too high.

He’s running both the hospital and the insurance company. And it’s apparently good quality insurance, so they aren’t skimping on his treatment. There’s no way both the hospital and the insurance company can be profiting from this guy getting all the bones in his body broken. Not at the same time.

In the US, people consider any public sector job to be working in/for the government. Judges, Legislators, the president, TSA security, Park Rangers, Cops, Clerks at the driver’s license office, etc. would all be considered government roles. Sometimes you need to clarify if you mean federal government or state government.

The president, his staff, and his political appointees are called the administration.

I imagine the people who actually think about how they are working just for basic needs are mostly a different group of people than those yelling about freedom.

I don’t know how many conservatives wake up in the morning with the feeling that everything they do is just to make some rich guy richer until they eventually die. Because why would they be a conservative at that point?

It’s not that your nose can’t taste very much. It’s like the other three, eating a nose won’t taste very good.

You’re supposed to get to the nose and think about how it definitely wouldn’t taste good. Then you think about how it doesn’t really smell that much better than you imagine it would taste. And then you go “Ahh. Smells! My nose is good at smelling!” and then die laughing at the hilarity of the wordplay.

I was just using the term that the previous commenter used to keep terms consistent.
