Trump attacks FBI director Wray for saying 'some question' over whether struck by bullet - ABC News
  • When you are president, they just let you sit on them.

    Even with a full diaper!

  • Trump attacks FBI director Wray for saying 'some question' over whether struck by bullet - ABC News
  • The question about whether it was a bullet or shrapnel wouldn't even be in the news if Trump didn't insist on playing up being an inch from death. Either answer would have been far less important than being shot at but no, he had to make the question about what hit him a big deal.

  • Why would a patent be limited to the illustrated example? Is the patent exclusively for law enforcement vehicles?

  • Look, if you want to get people to talk about your crimes you need to do a better job of taunting the police. Whining about it on Lemmy isn't going to make it happen.

  • Nebraska Supreme Court upholds law restricting both medical care for transgender youth and abortion
  • In this case it is supposedly only about a law that limited the physical part, the case wasn’t about the details of the ban but the fact that the ban was combined with the abortion restrictions.

  • Couchfucker James Donald Bowman, who currently goes by JD Vance because changing your indentity is fine with Republicans as long as you are cis.

  • Nebraska Supreme Court upholds law restricting both medical care for transgender youth and abortion
  • Gender-affirming healthcare includes emotional support and just treating someone as their self identified gender, not just physical treatments. In this case it is supposedly only about a law that limited the physical part, but the case wasn't about the details of the ban but the fact that the ban was combined with the abortion restrictions.

    The court decided that although they were two things, both fall under healthcare so apparently that makes them the same thing.

  • FBI seeking to interview Trump as part of assassination attempt investigation
  • Why would this be any different than the time he colluded with Russia on live TV, had a phone call recorded asking to change election results, intentionally retained national security documents after leaving office, rallying the mob that tried to stop the election results, or any of the other things we already have on record?

  • Einstein and God
  • Huh, I figured it was someone who was mocking Einstein for overthinking things when God was just trying to show him the neat thing he made. Don't recognize the artist to know either way.

    Definitely mocking Einstein.

  • Einstein and God
  • Einstein smart! God dumb!

    I assumed it was mocking Einstein for overthinking since God looks sad at the end.

  • Missouri Supreme Court blocks release of man whose conviction was overturned after more than 30 years in prison
  • Oh, I forgot to include the part from Lincoln v. Cassidy which makes it even worse.

    We conclude that Relator would be unable to sustain his burden to establish the procedurally barred claims that he was denied a constitutionally adequate trial, rendering it unnecessary to determine whether Relator has sustained his burden to establish a gateway to review those claims. Because the Missouri Supreme Court has not recognized a freestanding claim of actual innocence in cases where the death penalty has not been imposed, we are not at liberty to expand Missouri habeas jurisprudence to permit consideration of the claim in this case. Accordingly, Relator's habeas petition is denied.

    When you read further into the weeds it gets even worse as there are apparently limitations on whether you can claim innocence depending on whether the trial was "constitutionally adequate" and when issues were raised. Just a bunch of excuses that procedure is more important than justice.

  • Missouri Supreme Court blocks release of man whose conviction was overturned after more than 30 years in prison
  • From a different article, the reason is absolutely ridiculous.

    Judge William Hickle agreed at a 2020 evidentiary hearing that a jury would likely find Dunn not guilty based on new evidence, ABC News reported. Hickle did not exonerate Dunn, however, citing the 2016 Missouri Supreme Court ruling from Lincoln v. Cassady that only death row inmates can make an innocence claim.

  • Republicans Really Wish Trump Hadn’t Picked J.D. Vance
  • Which is funny because the guy from the rust belt is a running mate with guy who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth before it rusted.

  • Vinyl records outsell CDs for the second year running
  • People who listen to records also generally are listening in a better listening environment. If you can get a CD mastered for a great listening environment and listen to in a great listening environment it would be better than a record could ever be - but you can’t get a CD mastered like that and even if you could most people are not listening in a great environment and so the CD will sound worse than one mastered as they are.

    You are right that the main difference is that vinyl records are mastered for use in a specific environment designed for the best audio experience and CDs are generally mastered for a wide variety of listening environments that include terrible acoustics. But any well mastered CD will sound better on the same level of hardware compared to vinyl from a technical perspective and the supposed superiority of vinyl tends to come from the imperfections analogue playback, including noise from dust, is really a preference thing.

    Not to mention a ton of modern record players are digital, so vinyl is just one physical step between digital mastering and digital playback.

  • Vinyl records outsell CDs for the second year running
  • It’s more that a CD is just a physical copy of a digital file.

    Pretty much every vinyl record pressed in the last few decades is a physical copy of a digital file.

  • Yeah, there was certainly a third group who was willfully avoiding involvement.

    There still is, but there was one back then too.
