nah that’s separate, more like negligence

difference being (as I understand it) that manslaughter is negligence outside of criminal actions, and felony murder is manslaughter while committing a crime

same, but it’s not high beams that are the offenders, it’s low beams

compare it to a glass of milk

lmfaoooooo

I was actually considering making a real new account (since anything with a temporary email generator address used seems to be instantly shadowbanned), this is a good reminder to not bother with that shitty site

it’s so telling when they unnecessarily use this language instead of at least a neutral “who died imprisoned” or something

isn’t the difference here supposed to be the level of danger/lethality/intent?

like if you burn someone’s house down with them inside, vs quietly breaking in to steal shit. if you burn down a house that probably has people in it, that’s murder even if it wasn’t 100% intentional, you should have known that was a likely outcome

the concept is okay, even good, I would say. if somebody does as a direct consequence of your actions, well, you murdered them — but that requires some nuance and work to determine how “direct”.

but the implementation, oh boy, that’s classic police state america

ah, middle aged women telling you to mind your own business after politely bringing up something that is directly affecting you, and thus is in fact your business.

nothing like it.

I would prefer the light didn’t come on tbh, too bright and people can see me through the front window looking for snacks in the dark

yep, my favourite COD memories (almost the only, really) are MW2 with buddies, and lapping kino to high levels on split screen

I’m still not understanding, and I think this is just because what you’re describing is a really stupid thing, but are you actually saying that the local split screen is like a square aspect ratio or something?

when you specify “full width split screen zombies mode”, I’m confused — do the newer games not have split screen for zombies? I thought they carried zombies through all the new games because it was so popular

I haven’t played since black ops 2, where I quickly dropped it. only played MW2 and black ops one before that.

you clicked on it, that means you accepted the terms and conditions

• that doesn’t turn the phone on silent

• yes, they replaced the partial crop with AI select. same method of using it, worse feature

• I’m on a relatively new phone, so it must be because Samsung sucks

• the OCR button doesn’t undo, it just flashes and then reselects the same thing with the text highlighted

maybe mine is buggy. either way, it’s still because Samsung sucks and the feature doesn’t work.

sure but they’re paying it to the big corps who need profits, so like, it’s all good, right?

stuff like this makes a real strong case for taking guns away from everybody

Samsung recently released UI 8 for Android, which had the astounding forward-thinking and innovative move of removing the ability to silence your phone by hitting the volume down button

idk what phone I’m gonna buy next, but that’s the last straw with Samsung for me. I’m already sick of them changing features on the phone to make them worse, like how in order to do a partial screenshot (a feature I used to use a lot) you now need to click the button and wait a few seconds for the “AI” to think about what portion of the screen to select. you cannot skip this waiting period. you cannot disable this (that I have found). you cannot ‘undo’ when you draw a box around a section that includes text and it tries to helpfully extract the text for you instead of just fucking taking a screenshot of the highlighted portion of the screen

fuck Samsung

church people are notoriously bad everything

it’s why they have to go to church. because they can’t just be good people.

I hope we’re talking about an underfunded nursing home or something , because these traitorous pieces of shit don’t deserve basic decency. you have to give that to receive it.

10 and 2 (and now 9 and 3, though to a lesser extent) is just a visual indicator of what drivers you need to be extra wary of when they’re around you

not all 9&3s are, but pretty much all 10&2s

and the 9&3s you don’t have to worry about are very easy to identify, because they’re not driving 53 in a 60 designed for 80km/h, unable to stay straight in the lane, and not staring dead ahead with dead eyes

I did it for six months straight around 7-8 years ago, and then on and off as required since.

I was fine with it when I was enjoying work and my work had variety in it - I could do my regular day with a bit of OT in the office, then go build stuff with my hands for a few hours in the shop.

At another job after that, 60s were more difficult because it was work from home, but I still did them as required because I could set my own schedule for the OT and half the time I was drinking and gaming simultaneously (some of the tasks required me to do something and wait on the computer to do compute). But still, the variety of work was key - I had to be able to change tasks and spend at least 10 hours on something that was interesting and different.

A 60 hour work week is stupid, imo. It takes up far too much of your personal time. Like anything, you can do it for a period of time, but it isn’t sustainable as it starts to eat into other aspects of your life.

It’s taken me nearly a year to transition away from a 50 hour standard week and constantly feeling like I should be working more. I had to learn how to just sit at home and do nothing, like drinking a coffee watching dawn come for ten minutes uninterrupted.

idk just sharing my experience. summary is that it’s possible short term if you enjoy it, but you need specific circumstances to be met. I was lucky my job gave me autonomy and flexibility, it wouldn’t have worked otherwise. and obviously I got paid overtime, I’m not working for free. and at both jobs I felt like I was appropriately compensated. I quit the first job when they stopped compensating me appropriately. I toned down the extra work at the second in the same situation.

*I want to add that in recent years I’ve done the 50-hour standard week because I thought the trade-off was worth it - I was being compensated fairly, getting regular wage increases, enjoyed the work environment, and it allowed me to afford a house comfortably enough (never mind that housing shouldn’t cost this much). I knew I was making a couple years of sacrifice to set myself up for the following decade at this company. Even if the work environment is worse now, I still prefer this to commuting to another job with less flexibility and autonomy.
