If a fictional-but-popular TV show treats some kinds of evidence as more reliable than they really are, juries may be primed to believe in the kind of thing the TV show presents as legitimate.

I think legacy USB peripherals are very common. Almost all of my peripherals are legacy USB; I think I only own a single USB-C peripheral. Old stuff still works, so I don't need to buy new ones.

You absolutely can start a bike by pedaling with no forward momentum. You can see it when someone starts pedaling again after a track stand.

I'm using an iphone 13, although I prefer to turn sideways and browse in landscape mode. What you consider borderline unusable is just how I prefer to browse reddit.

Isn’t it somewhat likely that a lot of shady crawlers pretend to be a google bot with their user agent?

It probably still is. I have a bit below 500 points and I can’t downvote.

Maduro was reported winning with 5,150,092 votes, or 51.20000% of the vote, and the main opposition had 44.20000% of the vote. These are considered suspiciously round percentages.

“Many people pirate” is a different statement than “too many people pirate games to make that a viable business”.

A justification I read once is that the human immune system evolved to deal with a certain amount of pathogens. If you don’t have enough exposure to pathogens, the immune system still tries to do its job, but winds up attacking non-pathogens.

Analogies don’t have to be 100% perfect. The Confederate analogy gets the point across just fine.

There’s a joke in there about the value of Macbooks.

The article suggests that this is is a first price sealed bid auction instead of a second price sealed bid auction. Skipping over the more complex nature of the Onion bid, the linked articles states "The total value of The Onion’s bid was $7 million" and "First United American Companies had a higher bid, offering $3.5 million in cash".

Third shift is the overnight shift at a 24-hour workplace. Usually that means midnight to 8 AM.

I think there is a very good chance this game was played at night when there would be few or no people in the park. They do not mention time of day in the post, but most urban capture the flag games are played at night.

There’s not just one enemy being sold to the public. We are a nation of consumers and we have varied taste. Other enemies include Democrats, elites, Russia, the trans agenda, Republicans, billionaires, immigrants, fascists, and antifa.

In my country, we have decided that there are some reasons that employers can't fire people for any reason, and that we have protected groups. For example, my employer can't fire me because of my religion or my skin color and I approve of that. I tend to think the other protected categories are good too. I'm pretty okay with making discrimination illegal.
