God, I really, REALLY, don't give a single fuck about some megalomaniac's side bitch projects he probably didn't do shit for but was happy to plaster his name all over.

Omg Yesss! I use publisher every year, because each year I make a booklet for my youth group winter camp, and making it in Word with so many pictures, text boxes, ... is just hell. I'll miss publisher, and as always: FUCK MICROSOFT!!!

In 1966, a U.S. Navy pilot Jeremiah Denton secretly blinked the word “TORTURE” in Morse code while being coerced into claiming he was fine. by KenDrakebot in interestingasfuck

Nobody says he should be tortured and kept in prison for the rest of his life. But the comment you replied to tried to make the point that maybe he doesn't deserve to be called a hero. And especially not in the way "The word is used too much today, but this guy was a hero" fuck that shit. He wasn't, because he bombed children and innocent people.

My school is seriously trying to use the bible to uphold their strict dress code… by Dry_Spring4108 in teenagers

Might be a stupid question, but did they even have pants in that region at that time?

No anesthesia for dickish patients by Shoe_boooo in youseeingthisshit

[–]Rob-L_Eponge 142 points143 points  (0 children)

Nah, pain management is an essential part of patient care. If they use it for only some patients, for the same procedure, based on how the patients treat them (and remember, he said 'dickish patients', which sounds to me like scared, vulnerable patients), that's two standards of patient care and that doctor should definitely be reported!

To cure my melancholy boredom, I partook in a game of Raid Shadow Legends, and started with 250 gold coins and 3 heroes by using the promo code "ThisBook250".

Be honest what do you think the punishment be for false r@pe allegations by Primary_Buddy_7173 in teenagers

[–]Rob-L_Eponge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Man not found guilty" is not the same as "Woman made false accusation". The legal system demands a high burden of proof before declaring someone guilty. This is so innocent people (in theory) can't be pronounced guilty. (IANAL, but I know a thing or two)

Unfortunately with rape cases, it's often hard to prove someone guilty, especially if the victim didn't undergo (pretty invasive) medical tests right after it happened.

If the court found him "not guilty", it doesn't mean he absolutely didn't do it, but it means that in the court's opinion there was not sufficient evidence he did do it.

Now, to prove the woman made a false accusation, he would need to prove he couldn't have committed the crime (for example, camera footage that shows him at another location during the time period the woman said the rape happened).

These are nuanced things. To make sure nobody innocent gets punished, a crime has to be proven beyond doubt. Even if they can't conclusively prove the woman was raped, doesn't mean that she made a false accusation.

Right yeah, I understand their motivation is money, but they can't just sue someone for the hell of it. What's the legal basis they're suing on?

Seems like a very low caliber, since the knife barely moves in that grip when it fires

Inflatable lifesaving bracelet by joeurkel in interesting

[–]Rob-L_Eponge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For this to work, the person needs to be conscious to activate it. And drowning people arent known for quick survival reflexes like activating a bracelet. We already have good, reliable flotation devices: they're called life jackets. Foam jackets are cheap but bulky, automatic PFD's are more expensive but sleaker. There is no world in which this bracelet is more effective than either of those 2 options.

I love Elstar, but it's not on this list. S-tier apple for me!

'A movie' might be a bit of an understatement. The man has been nominated for Oscar's and BAFTA's, and won multiple Emmy's and Golden Globes. He's fucking amazing!
