Partially true, but they also use that astronomical conviction rate to take more pleas than normal. If you're going up against a 98 percent conviction rate, does it make sense (even if you're innocent) to take on that 2 percent chance? If you never make it to trial and just plea, you don't contribute to the conviction percentage. They use this to convince most people getting federal charges to take a plea deal.

Not defending Adams, wanna make that clear. I just see people mention the 98 percent conviction rate when it isn't an accurate depiction of the situation. This is carefully picked information to make people feel okay forgoing a trial they have a right to

Well I had a seizure in the middle of front of house at my job, everybody was really nice about everything. The EMS that showed up were firefighters that let me take an Uber instead because I seemed pretty stable

Imagine you're in a billion dollar machine to go down to the ocean and you buy a third party controller Logitech doesn't even make anymore. I'd barely wanna hand that shit to 2nd player, why cheap out on something so tiny on such an expensive project? I could barely get that controller to work when I had one as a kid, they're pieces of shit. Not like it really matters, but it just shows the level of corner cutting that happened with that submersible. Literally couldn't splurge an extra $10 to get a controller for the ship that doesn't suck total ass.

How have I never heard of this? Dave Matthews dumps 800 pounds of shit on Chicago's Little Lady is a great headline.

Trans people defending Vaush after all of the HORRIBLE shit he's said about trans people is so shocking to me

I wonder how much of it was actually GI issues and how much of it was being on a substance that made people extraordinarily constipated and another that makes you push everything out anyways.

I mean wasn't Russian literacy super fucking low pre-Lenin? Many of the greatest revolutions ever done were done by illiterate people. Reading theory is good, but some people here treat it as far too important.

Yeah, allow any self improvement posts that aren't deeply problematic. Make it a common space for learning. We're all united in wanting to be our best selves.

Sniper elite introduced non-lethal options because it's always been a knock off shooter, and the stealth shooters in 2014 during Sniper 3's release all had non-lethal. Back when V2 came out, Nazi zombies were a huge deal so they made a Nazi zombies mode. To my knowledge there isn't really any effect on the game other than making it harder, it's a difficulty challenge.

Idk, the sniper elite guys make really fun gameplay loops but can't seem to make anything else. The levels and AI have always been kinda designed like shit.

All the trailers looked really good, reminds me of the Bollywood stuff I watched as a kid. American action movies definitely can't work with anime, but I'd expect the Bollywood style to work extreme well with anime.

American movies take themselves too seriously and not seriously enough at the same time, always trying to avoid being "corny". Indian movies seem to revel in this corniness, the stories are far more genuine and the special effects being bad is part of the charm
