Donald Trump found guilty of hush-money plot to influence 2016 election
  • They requested the delay to July, since he is in court for another case in another area. I suppose it was reasonable to grant it. It'd be unfair for someone to not get their right to a trial, even if they were found guilty of a crime in another area.

    It'd make more sense to keep him in custody in the meantime though. I mean, that's what they do for normal people. Right?

  • Lemmy.VG - A vegan-only Lemmy server existing to provide the vegan community safe access to the Fediverse.
  • They'd most likely have to do it through bans in reaction to non-vegan sounding comments, since there's really no way to prove someone is not of the group, until they prove that they're not in it.

    It sounds rough, you'd need to have a very active group of moderators.

  • Nintendo Power's old instructions for taking a "screenshot"
  • I mean, they're useful instructions. How often at the time did you need to take a photo of the tv? And you were likely not going to know how the photo looked until you got it developed, so it's important that you get the photo right the first time, because there may not be a second chance, since you'll have to run down to the pharmacy, grocery store, or wherever you get your photos developed, and wait for them to come back to see that you messed it up or not, and by then, your parents may have turned the console off.

  • Why do we have to do the health insurance company's job for them?
  • I'd imagine we'd see insurance invest money into making offers to providers. They'd refer the patient to a health insurance company instead of negotiating, and in exchange they'd get a large one time payout for a successful referral. This would please investors in the providers, because they'd see short term gains, and it'd please the insurance company because patients would be forced to have insurance again. Everyone (with money) wins!

  • What do you use AI/LLMs for in your personal life?
  • There's not really any use for them. There are really no tasks they can help a normal person with in their everyday. I guess you could talk to it like it's a person, but that's sad, and is probably unhealthy, and you should probs just talk to a real person instead.

    Now if you do some specialized tasks, like programming, but aren't very good, I guess I can see some use for them.

    I'm having trouble seeing any uses for them beyond those though.

  • Are you registered to donate your organs? Why or why not?
  • Well, I never really thought about it until now either. Haha. Though, it was mostly a choice of apathy, since when I'm dead I won't really care what someone does with them, I only really get to pretend that I will while I'm alive today.

    If they're not charging for my organs that get donated, then that's pretty cool. I mean, I was given mine for free, so it only makes sense to give them for free when I'm done with them.

    Of course, I live in the middle of nowhere, so whether they'll find someone who can use my stuff before it goes bad is a whole different thing entirely.

    It's good that you were able to find some lungs.
