I don't see how this isn't a brazen attempt to taint the jury pool. If he has evidence exonerating him he just needs to present it in court.

I am envious! Enjoy the show!

Outer Wilds is top of my list for most profound video game experiences. I have never went from joy to thinking "Oh. Oh..." so fast in one game. Plus, the music and graphics are so well done and support the narrative themes and mood. Just a masterpiece game.

Stick with the story through the end of Shadowbringers there is a good payoff.

I would describe myself as vegetarian but there is a wide variety of ways to be strict about it so it's almost a useless way to describe oneself. Personally, I avoid cheese because of rennet, wine because of eisenglass, I won't eat anything with gelatin, i avoid eggs unless they come from my friends who have chickens (because I know their chickens are well cared for). I end up being close to vegan but don't really feel like that label fits me because I'm sure I eat butter without realizing it, or other milk products which can end up in places you don't expect (milk is in tootsie rolls, for example).

On the other hand I know vegetarians who just avoid meat and are fine with chicken or beef stock or gelatin.

This seems like a pretty heavy lift for Twitter and while I hardly support Meta, if Twitter somehow manages to win sole ownership of the concept of microblogs it would be bad for everyone.

Same here; I used to be fluent, but lost it to disuse, it's been nice to brush out the lingual cobwebs.

Respectfully, I disagree. If you are running a bar and a nazi comes in with all their nazi periphranalia and orders a drink and behaves. You still kick them out. Because if you don't the next time they will bring all their nazi friends and it will be much harder to kick them out and then your other patrons stop showing up because of all the nazis around and now you are running a nazi bar.

Ban hate trolls. Ban them immediately. Because if that content festers on the site it will be much harder to ban later.

Such a great game too.

Why in the world would anyone want to stay on a site with people like that? Good riddance to that crowd. I understand that some people may be afraid of losing what they have in reddit and lash out at a perceived threat to that, but they just don't realize that they have already lost what made reddit special. It's never going back to what it once was and over time it will diminish further as more and more people get tired of the same low-effort commentary over and over again with fewer and more overworked moderators eventually closing communities because it's just not worth it anymore. It won't happen overnight, but slowly, unless spez decides to go full Elon on the site, which wouldn't surprise me.

So these votes are going to be done by the people who haven't left reddit in protest and if those of us who have left in protest come back to vote in the polls, reddit will claim that outsiders are brigading the votes so the sub will be reopened. There is no situation where a community vote to remain closed will be respected by the site owners.
