Plaintiffs have no constitutional right to use marijuana

That's a strange thing for the judge to dismiss the case over when it's about the constitutional right to bear arms and not marijuana. There's a lot of things that we don't have an enumerated right for that this logic opens up for banning. Can we ban all pickup truck owners from owning guns? They should've bought a sedan if they wanted to be allowed to buy a gun.

My point is that the part about the prosecutor only applies to the last part of the sentence. It's the newspaper doing an "allegedly" thing. He was sentenced to life for these crimes that the prosecutor says he did. That way if it turns out he didn't actually do it and later goes free, the newspaper will be less likely to get sued for libel.

The article later goes on to talk about how he was convicted by a jury and sentenced to life by a judge.

According to prosecutors is describing "...for plotting to attack FBI agents and seeking to incite a "civil war,"" not the sentencing.

I taught my mom to play by using a couple of starter decks, giving a short overview of the objective and what the parts of the card meant, and then played a couple of matches with our cards revealed to each other. You just need to be patient, willing to explain anything, and be generous with allowing take backs and reminding about any rules they missed. And remember that if you want someone to keep playing with you, they need to be able to have fun too.

Last time, the judge said they can't hold him just because Marco Rubio wants to deport him. They were allowed to hold him under the flimsy green card application allegations. This is taking away their other excuse.

It didn't really look like he raised his weapon towards the crowd. He had it lowered until they either started yelling or shooting, hard to tell from the video, he only raised it into a running stance. It was still pointed mostly sideways.

I thought the video would be a slam dunk against him, but it just looks like he panicked when the shooting started and ran away.

This isn't an issue with the Full self driving that people signed up for the beta for. It happens with the cruise control too.

Yeah, Tesla's don't have ordinary cruise control. They have adaptive cruise control and autopilot, which is adaptive cruise control + lane keeping. Both just use the camera. If you're hoping to rest your foot during a cross country drive, then you better prepare for it to lurch every time it sees a shadow. Once every couple of miles if the road has enough shadows.

It looks like there is a window there. You can see the frame on the right side of the photo.

It's a common thing in programming. There's some legacy code that isn't being used and yet removing it causes things to break. Nobody has the time to figure out what is still referencing that code, so it just gets a comment next to it saying "Not used, but removing it breaks the build" and then forgotten about.

Nearly 98% of cars sold in the US are automatic. Manual transmissions are often not even an option for a lot of models.

This press release is from 2023. Not sure why it was posted like it was news.

 

I've been wanting to get into Star Trek, but I'm not sure the best place to start. I'm sure there's a wide range of opinions.

Some shows 'get good after season 1'. I'm a little worried that I'll end up picking a star trek show with a weak start and then dropping it before the parts people actually like. I vaguely remember reading these sort of comments about TNG.
