It's probably closer to a strawman or false dichotomy, than it is projection.

Though, providing basic needs to prisoners seems like a relatively small price to pay to keep them off the streets and hopefully deter other crime.

What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

digdug,

I clicked that hoping it was Angela Collier! I found her channel just a couple months ago and it's so entertaining.

digdug,

What's scary is that I think the owner of userbenchmark actually believes that statement. Which might explain how he's so out of touch that he thinks his own crap doesn't stink and deserves to be locked behind a subscription. I'm just sad that there might be a not insignificant number of people that pay for it.

digdug,

It just asks you again

digdug,

Well, they are a minority.

And even if you allowed sqrt(4) = ±2, it would still be invalid to evaluate it to -2 on one side of the equation, but then use +2 on the other side.

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? (gadgettendency.com)

With support ending for Windows 10, the most popular desktop operating system in the world currently, possibly 240 million pcs may be sent to the landfill. This is mostly due to Windows 11’s exorbitant requirements. This will most likely result in many pcs being immediately outdated, and prone to viruses. GNU/Linux may be...

And even if the 240 million laptops were all 24" ultra wide behemoths, that's still only ~146,304 km; not even half the average distance to the moon.

I wouldn't even call the article hyperbole, but if we take the author in good faith, then they're just terrible at math.

My wife and I love to sub beans instead of beef for these. Mmm, so good!

digdug,

The issue is just for 1 on 1 phone calls, meetings seem to work fine.

digdug,

Okay, maybe a not-for-profit organization that he voluntarily resigned from gave him a golden parachute deal with perpetual royalties that's totally secret. We can never know ...

One thing we do know? Using Brave has a 100% chance of supporting him financially.

digdug,

When I was twelve, I woke up convinced that the color yellow was called yellow, because humans had figured out that word was intrinsically linked to that color.

I was devastated my "epiphany" stopped making sense after I fully woke up.

digdug,

Oh no, my first GPU is 23 years old now ...

digdug,

It's a play on an idiom, "there's gold in them there hills." I'm not sure if it's just a really old idiom, or just a rural dialect, or both.

digdug,

I sync OneDrive to my Synology as well, another reason I'm okay with the "double" traffic is that my and my wife's photos from our smartphones immediately get backed up to our Synology, even when we're away from home.

digdug,

This is the only reason I haven't pushed my team to switch. I'm worried too many of them will be OP.

digdug,

I've heard conservatives claim that many liberals actually want forced abortions, because it's really about eugenics and population control.

Isn't mother's milk still vegan if she consents?

Is it illegal to con people into thinking you have a perfect ability to pick football games by emailing out two lists: one picking one team, and the other picking the other team, and only sending... (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

…the next pick to the people who saw you pick the “winner”. Now half of those people see one team, the other half see you pick the other team, and whoever saw you pick the winner thinks you’ve got a 100% accuracy rate over two games. You could do that for a while and then offer to sell your pick for the Superbowl....

digdug,

The original question was whether it was legal, not whether they could get away with it. If they did get caught, there is a very high likelihood they could be convicted of fraud.

Android has allowed you to randomize your mac for a long time, and is currently the default setting. In developer options you can even toggle a setting to enable non-persistent randomization.

I actually had back pain in my late 30s, got a new mattress and it completely went away.

digdug,

Yep, the only thing better than encryption is for the data to not be on the device at all.

Someone posted a Google survey asking how often they wanted updates about beef stroganoff, and one of the responses you could pick was "only when something big happens".

digdug,

I think they're trying to figure out who you're hanging around that look down on others drinking water. I've only ever heard people recommending to drink more water.

digdug,

Yep, the +/- on the right lets you do that. I was almost done with act 1 before I figured that out.
