Essentially a very large faucet
  • Yeah you could probably find a path through New Mexico and Arizona that's not too mountainous, like along I-10.

    But really where the US "needs" more water is where all the farms are. The cities don't use much in comparison. It's just a lot in a small area compared to the farms distributed in the big valleys.

  • I'm sorry, are you saying that a pipeline from the great lakes to Los Angeles would have to go through less mountains than from British Columbia?

    * gestures vaguely at the entire mountain west *

  • Opt out now.
  • Even more so, yes. I will be mostly fine in California even if Trump is elected, in all likelihood. The worst things about Trump's presidency were not felt here but seen in other states.

    Obviously Trump is a huge threat to federalism in general and democracy at the federal level, but they can only do so much to the states and cities.

    Where would you rather live under a trump presidency? Los Angeles or Orlando? Seattle or Nashville? Philadelphia or Little Rock? Even Austin, a very blue city, is prevented from doing a lot of good by the state of Texas.

  • Opt out now.

    Another reminder that your state and local elections matter more than the federal to your daily lives.

  • LG TVs start showing ads on screensavers | LG's TV business is heightening focus on selling ads and tracking
  • One of the concerns I would have with custom ROMs for TVs is that I think a lot of the image processing magic that makes the image look good on these high end displays is done in some proprietary method that the custom ROM wouldn't be able to use. Either in software or in hardware.

    The magic of the high end TVs isn't actually in the panel itself as much as in the driving of the panel.

  • The best hill of them all.
  • My Mazda has the same controls and I've never really felt like they're hard to find. The button layout makes a lot of sense and the large center wheel is easy to find so you can use it as a reference point to find the other buttons easily (I pretty much just use the home and music buttons and that volume knob).

  • Israel Bombed Lebanon Today, Killing Hundreds. The U.S. Is Sending More Bombs.
  • Cut your nose to spite your face then. You'll keep paying for genocide even if you won't "vote for it."

    The things you can do are support groups and politicians that will push the country in the direction you want it to move. Really think about what action (or inaction) does for the things that matter to you. You have an opportunity to do something to help reduce overall suffering and make the country and world a slightly better place.

  • So you have three options, all having a bad outcome on the most important thing you care about.

    One of the options maybe has better outcomes on some other things you care about.

    Another option has bad outcomes in almost everything you care about, plus maybe even a worse outcome to your most important thing.

    The third option is to leave it up everyone else to pick between the first two.

    I know what I'd pick, what will you do?

  • Multiple Life Sentences for Minor in Police Shooting He did not Participate in.
  • It's part of felony murder but not the whole thing. The other parts of felony murder are if your accomplice intentionally kills someone or the death of someone is caused without intent (such as hitting a pedestrian while fleeing).

    I could make the argument that by participating in a felony, accomplices are accepting the inherent risk, so if they happen to get hurt or killed that's on them and shouldn't be considered felony murder.

  • Multiple Life Sentences for Minor in Police Shooting He did not Participate in.
  • So let's be clear here, he was charged with felony murder of his accomplice in a dangerous felony. Felony murder is the crime of killing of a person in the commission of a dangerous crime.

    It's pretty debatable if it makes sense to charge someone for felony murder if they were an accomplice, but that's a different discussion than the framing of "charged for a murder committed by cops". The cops didn't murder this guy, it seems pretty clear that the cops acted in self defense here. So it's not like they transferred the "blame" as it were from murderous cops to an innocent kid.

    The reason felony murder exists is that even if there was no actual intent to kill, the risk of death during a dangerous crime is so high it becomes reckless. There's a similar crime of depraved heart murder where the act that causes the death of someone is so dangerous that one could only do it if they had no concern of killing someone. You go into a felony knowing someone could get hurt or killed and do it anyway, so you are responsible for the consequences whether you "pulled the trigger" or not. A more common example would be if you and a buddy are robbing a bank and your buddy kills a teller or a cop, you get charged with felony murder.

  • How to decide what kind of controller one should purchase?
  • The Ultimate 2.4 has right now bluetooth and hall effect sensors as well. I couldn't get it to pair with the switch though I didn't try super hard. It works on Bluetooth with my Android TV but for whatever reason ignores the customized buttons (I keep accidentally pressing the wing buttons on the bottom) so I use the dongle on the TV.

  • Sync Bug? Most posts are not marking as read

    Recently I started noticing that a lot of posts will mark as read for a second then go back to unread when viewing just the image or article. It's not all posts though and I haven't determined a pattern yet, but opening the comments seems to mark as read on refresh even though the post looks unread before refreshing.

    I'm on version 122 of Sync on Android.

    All read posts being hidden forever

    *** Solved: it was pointed out there is a Lemmy setting that enables showing read posts, rather than a Sync setting.

    At some point I think I enabled a setting to hide read posts automatically, but now I can't seem to find a way to stop this behavior. There is also no method to unhide posts. So now once I've read a post, after I refresh it is gone forever in the app.

    Tried resetting all settings back to default and erased user data in android but it seems stuck, maybe to my user account?
