We say alleged because in civilization, you're innocent until proven guilty.

We know Eric Adams did something similar with Turkish donors in New York. There was also a ton of reports of this happening during Trump's first campaign.

There are 54 Glock models that are certified for sale in CA. Almost 1000 models from all manufacturers are certified. Plus private party transfers are legal, meaning you can just bring one in or have a friend give you one.

The rules are quite loose? Why else would they have eagle eyed officials watching closely to disqualify athletes for infractions.

Games can absolutely be played asynchronously. Games can have scoring systems instead of head-to-head.

Would you say pinball is not a game?

I didn't think I needed to get out the dictionary definition of game, but I hope this clears it up... Definitions from Oxford Languages: "noun, a form of play or sport, especially a competitive one played according to rules and decided by skill, strength, or luck."

Why track and field events not games? They have rules, can be won or lost, and can be played casually if you think that is a requirment.

Take shot put, hammer throw, and javelin, for example. The game is who can throw the object in a certain way the furtherest. I could play a shot put game with some friends at a river bank by drawing a line in the sand and seeing who can huck the heaviest rock on the shore the furthest.

There's a reason they call them Olympic Games.

Really any activity with some structure is a game if it is play and not "real", even better if it can help practice a skill useful in life. There is a difference between a running race (a game) and running for your life from a bear (not a game). Between MMA and a street fight. Between war games and a shooting war.

I wish I read this comment before wasting my two minutes as well...

If your game doesn't involve traveling above 100mph and pulling more than 2g it's not a sport 😤

What athletic competition would not be a game if all sports are games? I mean, honestly, what is the difference you see between "sport" and "athletic competition"?

You can extend or contract "game" as much as you want, but I can't think of a definition of game that would encompass all sports but not all athletic competitions (if there really is a difference).

This result has probably been priced in since it hit the current floor in March. The bump after the report is likely because there were no bombshells in it. They're saying they're still on track for all the vaporware that the valuation is based on. It will drop again when they're inevitably delayed and it becomes clear the robots and AI taxis aren't revolutionary but just exactly what other companies already beat them to.

It's certainly AI.

The far away details are clearly fake. There's a lamp post that just fades out of existence, random junk where there should be road, and the bushes change shape across lamp posts.

The 5 on the interstate logo also has a telltale, it's all weird but the rest of the text on the sign is pixel perfect.

One person's streaming "surging" the capitol's internet is not clear if it is satire?

Or are you using "genuine" like "literally"?

 

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.

*** 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?
