Cops aren’t people though

The RP realms are basically just RPers. And iirc classic doesn’t really have much of a persistent RP community at this point.

Imagine being told “No woman will want to date you so anyone that says they are is just a cat fish.”

I’m a woman now.

Well 15 year old me, you’ll figure it out in about two years.

I had to call the night before. They said I should go in so I did. They sat us in a room and gave us stickers saying we’re jurors and referred to us by daily numbers and we watched an orientation video. Then we sat in that room for about an hour waiting for the court to get ready. Then once it was, they guided us upstairs and 14 of us were turned into a jury panel while the rest of us were the jury pool or something.

The judge gave us an overview of the case. Who the defendant was, their charges, and made it clear that these charges were not evidence and nor should they be considered as anything indicating guilt.

The judge asked the jury panel a few questions, and said that all of us in the jury pool should think about our answers. After the Judge’s questions, he can dismiss someone for cause, then pull someone out of the pool to replace them and continue questioning. Anyone dismissed was free to check out and leave.

Then the prosecutor asked questions. Stuff about the case, our experiences, what we look for when listening to witnesses and what we look for as evidence. What we consider “beyond a reasonable doubt” means. Then when he was done, he let the defense ask questions. He asked similar ones but while the prosecutor was looking at bias against the evidence or the kinds of witnesses (cops), the defendant looked more for bias in favor of those.

Once both were done, the judges can move to dismiss for cause if they have cause and they also had a number of free dismissals they could use for whatever reason. If they dismissed anyone, they called more people from the pool then questioning started with prosecution again and then the defense and so on.

Repeat until both council either choose not to dismiss anyone or presumably are out of dismissals, they then choose that jury panel as the final jury. Everyone else could check out while the jury stayed and presumably got some more detailed info.

I wasn’t part of it. We went down to the room we started in and checked out. They told us we had no further obligations during the rest of our serving time (which was stated on the summons) and we didn’t need to call in again or go in. If you needed a sheet to show you went for your employer, they would give you one.

Our payout was less than 20 bucks for that day. But it was above 20 for any subsequent day serving.

Why would you not feed them a dead mouse if you’re going that route. Hell someone I know with a snake feeds it frozen mice.

That’s just all console manufacturers.

At some point you gotta offer a decent product if you want people to use it, let alone make a profit off it.

Wow those rates are outright stupid. Someone looked at those numbers and decided that was a good idea. Are they braindead or are they hoping for this to fail?

If you’re the kind of person using lemmy, then any southern state is probably in the running for “worst” to live in. They’re not without their positives or fantastic people and culture (and I mean actual culture, not the confederacy bs) but if you were picking and choosing a place to live, it probably wouldn’t be those.

By that same token, any west coast or northeast/new England state is probably “best”. They all have their negatives and shitty people, but you’d probably prefer one of them if you were choosing. Though you actually may have a better time in a city in a “worst” state than in some rural areas in a “best” state. That’ll depend on other factors.

Hard to have sympathy for anyone who enlisted in this country’s military.

They’re a corporation who forces their workers to crunch. Quit sucking them off like they actually care about you.

Meh. Apollo wasted time defending a self described white supremacist for facing the consequences of being a self described white supremacist. That kind of guy gets no sympathy from me.

I listened for a while but really fell off the more I realized that CGP grey is kind of an idiot.

Rosalina. I like her in general, probably my favorite mario character. Also she’s a heavyweight which I prefer in Mario kart.

In Mario kart’s without her, typically Bowser.

I don’t get your reason for not answering the question.

I genuinely have no idea what an “ahh” thing is.

I still have no clue what that means.

How does that mean anything? The sentence is word salad. What on earth is an “ahh thread”

“ahh” thread? The fuck’s that mean?
