First of all, this is clever and adorable. Secondly, if you spell out your name it writes a little story for you

It looks like the jury instructions in the Trump Manhattan case will soon be available in transcript form. When they are available I plan to analyze them.

Jury instructions are key. Not everything bad or immoral is a crime. To be convicted of a crime, the prosecution has to present evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to prove each element of a specific crime.

Because of how complicated this charging document is (predicate crimes for predicate crimes) the jury instructions will give the roadmap.

That seems strange. What is the reasoning behind it (if any)?

wondering how many people out there are more susceptible to disinformation because they have eye problems that make them less able to read books

@exchgr
I think the problem lies in the processing of data sent by the eyes. I mean, if neither of your brain cells is fully functional, you'll probably throw a lot of errors.

I've only seen it in a theater once and it was 70mm, probably stereo sound. It would be interesting to see how well it might transfer to IMAX and, if possible, AI-assisted surround sound.

Because Voyager 1 is so far from Earth, it takes almost 23 hours for a command to reach it at the speed of light, and the same for a response to reach us back, for a total of close to 50 hours.

Which means that interactions with Voyager 1, currently around 15 billion miles away, are still faster than many Microsoft Windows updates.

Does reversing the polarity on a microwave turn it into an instant cooling machine? 🤔

ahhhh thank goodness, the baratza virtuoso+ uses mostly the same parts as the original virtuoso, which i’ve owned for about a decade. so i can still replace a recently-cracked burr ring holder, and a cracked-since-day-one hopper for like $15 total instead of getting a whole new grinder for $250

@exchgr
I should hope so at that price! I considered getting one many years ago but I don't make enough coffee at home to justify it although it would be nice to have one.

It's probably worth it if that's your main/only hot beverage. I make stovetop espresso a couple of times a week but drink tea (pu'erh) most of the time.

watching x-files and they “as you know bob”’d origami. like:

a: look at that, it’s beautiful.
b: it’s called origami.
a: yeah, japanese paper folding

was origami just largely unknown in the west in the early 90s? i can’t remember a time when i didn’t know what it was

Tbh, I don't remember that, it was a long time ago after all.

weaknesses:

  • too much of a team player
  • so silly, sometimes i work a bit too hard
  • due to my various conditions and maladies, i must scamper off into the woods for long intervals in the middle of the day
  • too good at compiling lists

@exchgr
Does scampering into the forest count? I do that every day and I'm not sure it's helped. 🤔

@pluralistic on the practicalities of "Even a brief moment's serious consideration should make it clear why we wouldn't want the distracted, stoned, drunk, suicidal, homicidal maniacs who pilot their two-ton killbots through our residential streets at 75mph to be flying over our heads with a reservoir of high explosives strapped to their backs."

I read this after driving two hours on Michigan highways, and this gets a solid AMEN from me. The here is a bit unsettling.

There are so many people who can't handle driving in 2D, so 3D would be a disaster.

something i don’t understand about people who are susceptible to fake news is, wouldn’t you want to know if you’re wrong?

@exchgr The problem with magats, et al, is that they think they know the truth and everything else can be disregarded. Therefore they can't be wrong.
