State District Court Judge Jessica Mangrum on Friday issued a temporary exemption to Texas’ abortion ban. Hours later, the attorney general’s office filed an appeal, which blocked the order.
The suffering is the means, the end is to cause fewer liberal voters than conservative to move in and cause some of the liberal voters there to move out.

You haven’t lived till you comprehended this one! If you peel this entire surface into two surfaces like 2ply toilet paper, this is also a halfway point for one way of turning a sphere inside out, depending on which surface peels which way!
The magic happens at the center-point of the surface where the three self-intersections meet. When you ply the surface apart, a tiny cube forms at the triple-point and begins to grow.
Morin’s surface is slightly less complex than splitting the boy’s surface apart, in that sphere eversion halfway model, a trapezoid forms instead of a cube. Inverting a trapezoid in this way is the minimum complexity required to turn a sphere inside out.
Videos I enjoy:
Outside in , which uses a technique different than those above (there’s also a parody out there where the narrators get snarky at eachother)
The optiverse , which uses Morin’s surface mentioned above, but is as ‘smooth’ as mathematically possible.

Maybe he’ll get a judge like the one who sentenced a guy to only 12 years instead of 72 for raping his daughter for 2 years, starting when she was 14, saying aloud that it’s because he’s a priest.
A federal judge has temporarily blocked Arkansas from enforcing a law that would have allowed criminal charges against librarians and booksellers for providing “harmful” materials to minors.
Try portal 1, it’s an exceptional puzzle game to many.
Try portal 2, it’s even better than portal 1.
If you crave more, portal stories: mel is a free fanmade mod of portal 2. It plays like an official spinoff. On advanced mode the puzzles are significantly more difficult.
Try portal:reloaded if you haven’t, another free fanmade mod, it adds significant complexity to the portal gun in the best possible way.

Noticed just recently that if I click ‘all’, then I load the next page, my selection switches back to ‘subscribed’ and results reflect that. I confirmed this only happens on old.lemmy.world.
Until now I only learned an electron cannot be spinning in the classical sense, because it would have to be spinning faster than the speed of light (plus ‘spin 1/2’ has no classical sense.) This made me assume quantum ‘angular momentum’ sums to magnetism instead-of and without classical angular momentum.
A federal judge in West Virginia has ruled that the state corrections agency can’t force an incarcerated atheist and secular humanist to participate in religiously-affiliated programming to be eligible for parole.
In the “Big Book,” the foundational document of these programs, “Chapter 4: We Agnostics” tells atheists and agnostics that they are “doomed to alcoholic death” unless they “seek Him.”
I’ve seen comments elsewhere claiming religion is optional in AA and you can ignore those parts, is it really optional if the program that’s supposed to be helping you says it can’t and you’re going to die!?
My wife works in a restaurant, and the power-tripping manager has instituted a new policy where all shift changes must be approved by management.

Sometimes I feel the unwelcome itch to google people from high school, but I never scratch it. I don’t need to know which ones are criminals now or not. I would rather continue thinking of them as the way they were.
