Nah, Cygnus beat you by about 14 min.
(On a serious note, had you already heard about someone else being convicted under the new security law? It also sounds like they’re talking about how the sentence was increased from 2 years to 7-10 years.)

Mythbusters did an episode on this.
2 poppyseed bagels were enough to have them test positive: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MythBusters_pilot_episodes#Episode_P3_–_"Poppy-Seed_Drug_Test"
They remained positive for at least 8 more hours and by the next morning they had tested negative again.
I’m confused.
What prominent figures on the left have said something to the effect of “If we lose, the election was rigged!”??
I can only think of prominent figures on the right who have made statements like this.
Or are you saying that those who are against the 2 party system typically fall under the thinking that the election is rigged?
Same as it ever was.
I doubt this was the case during (and for at least a time after) WWII. But maybe a history buff can correct me. I haven’t looked too deeply into how the justice system handled Nazis that far back.

Woah, I wish I had known about this sooner. Thanks!
Then if they go this route, they better make sure that they clearly define what they mean by a “Recommendation Algorithm” or an “interests-based algorithm” because the opinions of individuals won’t hold up in court.
If it’s not defined an attorney could easily argue that Lemmy’s “Scaled” algorithm is a “recommendation algorithm” and you would hope that the judge understood enough about programming to know where to draw the line.
Spiritual.

What economic concept are you proposing that’s better than the current systems in place?
At least government regulations can help keep capitalism in check, but taking that too far leads to monopolies and dictatorships.
The sad thing is, his case is not unique. Way too many people are convicted for crimes in the same way where some “cell mate” has heard the other person confess to crimes, and then the “informant” gets rewarded.
We seriously need to change how things are done especially in cases where the only evidence is from incentivized informant testimony.
If the Missouri governor won’t pardon him, shouldn’t Biden be able to pardon him? Hopefully enough noise is made that he takes notice.
Unfortunately we’ve all seen this play out before where someone who can prove they are innocent is still executed.
Here’s a good documentary on what’s going on:

From the looks of it, the best chance you have to escape is before they get you to the river. So if you ever find yourself in a situation where you’re travelling for a job in one of these countries, be aware of the signs, and escape before it’s too late.
So, if you get picked up from the airport and you’re supposed to go to a hotel only 10 min away, but that turns into a drive for a few hours, do whatever you can to get out. Anywhere is better than the destination at the end of that drive.
I’ve got to say, I’m disappointed in Lemmy for the amount of upvotes you’re receiving for a comment as sickening as this.
Killing someone just for revenge should never be the answer. That’s the kind of tactic that makes dictators and fascists what they are. The desire to watch something like that is even more alarming.
Always great to have an actual lawyer weigh in on something like this.
[Meyer] also expressed frustration that Cody is the only official expected to face criminal prosecution.
“What I feel is going on here is that he’s been set up as the fall guy,” Meyer said.

Edit: There was a bit of hot mic somewhere nearby so you could hear a little bit before he sat down:
RS: “Hi Mister Trump, just take a seat over there, thank you.”
DT: “Uh, how are you? How are you?”
RS: “Good”
Music dies and mic turns on:
RS: “Mr President, we so appreciate you giving us an hour of your time. I want to start by addressing the elephant in the room, sir. A lot of people did not think that it was appropriate for you to be here today. You have pushed false claims about some of your rivals from Nikki Haley to former President Barack Obama saying…”
It really bothers me when journalists don’t list out which laws specifically were passed/signed.
Even better if they could link to the bill text itself, yet instead they just link to a similar article on their own site.
