  • pastor has been indicted on federal charges of cyberstalking his wife, including allegedly posting a nude photo of her online,

    The “allegedly” here isn’t referring to the charges, it is referring to the act of posting a nude photo online. They need to use the word allegedly here because he hasn’t been convicted of doing that specific act.

    You would be correct if they said he was being charged with allegedly cyber stalking her. But in this case they stated a specific act, and you can’t publish something that claims someone did something illegal if they haven’t been convicted in court.






  • Exactly this. It’s the hype cycle all over again. Everyone gets excited about the new thing, the new thing is easy to implement but hard to utilize effectively, everyone starts shoehorning the new thing into their thing, they throw shit-tons of money at it and shit-tons more to market it as the greatest thing ever, and then everyone starts to see the truth. The new thing is okay and can be useful but it has been way overblown, and it all starts to crumble down to where it should be and then we build it up slowly from there.







  • I support daylight savings time more and all of those regions where the sun doesn’t rise before 7AM can switch time zones.

    For example, all of the USA switches to permanent daylight savings time, and the western portion of Texas that sees 0 days with a sunrise before 7 AM switches to the Mountain time zone. Now they will experience sunrise before 7 AM much more often.
