Something tells me that they are not publishing his name because they're betting that his future patients would feel differently. I would not want to see Dr. Rapist for any reason, even if he's the best physician in the city.

If a game is rated Gold or above, it's generally good to go on most systems. Platinum is the best rating other than Native, which means it's a game with an official Linux version. Proton is the reason I switched to Linux.

Bronze and Silver games might play fine too, but you'll either have to do some tinkering or it just won't work. It's not that often that these games work "out of the box."

If their cost goes way up, that might make hand-made American items comparatively affordable, maybe for the first time in modern history. It's (potentially) a good thing for a bad reason, I guess.

In his summing up the judge said “It has been proven that sexual intercourse took place at a time that she was in a state that meant that she couldn’t possibly consent to it. The offence is serious and unacceptable.”

Wow, we can both read! That's awesome. Now one of us just has to work on their comprehension and maybe even finish the article next time...

Society can't do much against laws that actively foster wealth hoarding.

Increase corporate tax rates, shut down loopholes, go after companies that use tax havens, fine corporate irresponsibility commensurate with the damage it causes (no ticky-tack fines), imprison white collar criminals and seize their assets, limit executive compensation relative to the lowest-paid employee, outlaw stock buybacks, etc.

I wonder if this is how people felt when Shakespeare invented a bunch of words. Slang turns complicated concepts into shorthand so that, once a definition has been established, more important discourse can occur.

If you're annoyed that you still have to learn new things as an adult, I have some bad news about the rest of your life.

The conviction will not appear on the man’s criminal record. However, if he reoffends, he will be sentenced for this rape as well as for the new offence.

Why wait to be proven wrong? I don't understand. Rapists shouldn't be doctors.

It's funny that the court would explicitly legitimize the idea that some people deserve to be "socially impaired" and others do not despite committing exactly the same crime.

Funny in the sense that it contradicts the entire foundation that the legal system is based on and makes the court look illegitimate and deliberately corrupt.

Wow, what an undemocratic shithole. I wonder if he'll preemptively pardon any of his cabinet's companies.

And then after you guys appeased him

And then after we appeased him

I'm going to assume you're not Canadian due to the "you guys" part and let you know that the $1.3 billion was already agreed to with Biden and was pre-allocated specifically for border control purposes at the end of 2024.

Wouldn't that be spelled centuar (like how "actually" is often pronounced "ackschwally") and not centaur?
