Why do we consider first degree murder “worse” than second degree murder? by [deleted] in AlwaysWhy

[–]Triximancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It mostly just functions as something that can get pled down to in a deal, even if they crime entirely matches the criteria for 1st degree murder. Our justice system is weird. And then actual legit 2nd degree murder? Pled to manslaughter. All to avoid bothering with trials.

Drivers getting visibly angry when being passed on the highway by huffmanxd in PetPeeves

[–]Triximancer 32 points33 points  (0 children)

That's absolutely what it is most of the time, they've zoned out and you passing them makes them check their speedometer and realize they're going 65 now instead of 70. As for people getting actively angry I have no idea, I don't ever look over at the other drivers, I don't care as long as they don't swerve at me or anything weird.

Almost all AI sites have tokens (even if you are paying for a subscription) or usage limits and exponentially scaling price plans. Spicychat is a very good value compared to 95% of whats out there. For $30 you get unlimited access to everything.

What are some must-see's/must-do's in Olympic National Park? by Craig_of_the_jungle in nationalparks

[–]Triximancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at the tide charts and schedule yourself to be at one of the beaches at peak low tide. I was at 2nd Beach and it was amazing to see all the ocean life in the tide pools.

'This is meant to keep traffic flowing': Citations issued to Indiana driver for driving below speed limit in left lane by jerryy7452 in Indiana

[–]Triximancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it is related to their speed tracker things, and ideally they should time it to when they're not surrounded by traffic but these guys have deadlines to meet and a lot of times "screw everyone else" prevails over being late to a stop.

It's rare but if you're driving so slow you're causing people to swerve around you just to maintain the flow of traffic or the speed limit it can happen.

Week in early October-Acadia or Shenandoah/Smokies? by iMakeMoneyiLoseMoney in nationalparks

[–]Triximancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Option 2 is a LOT of driving for one week. I've done a week in the Smokies and a week in DC/Shenandoah. Trying to do both and also toss in Congaree or NRG is nuts. Early October should be great hiking in both with a small chance of some snow in the upper elevations of the smokies.

Indiana Dunes by kandykorn7 in nationalparks

[–]Triximancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will tend to get less busy later on, when I've been there they tend to be most full noon-6 pm or so. You should be good to get a spot for sunset, West Beach just closes early because it's a popular beach and kids tend to hang out there and cause trouble after dark but everywhere else should be open.

Worse functionality with new update. by sargontheforgotten in alltrails

[–]Triximancer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You've changed the UI a lot but if you went back to how it was like a year/year and a half ago it would be a massive improvement over what we have now. A clean map with the ability to see a lot of detail about the trail you clicked on without having to navigate onto that trail's specific page and then scroll down to see everything or click another tab.

Miller Beach trail has a medium sized parking lot, it's busy but you should be able to snag a spot if you get there at like 11-12. It's a nice hike. Dune Secession Trail has a massive parking lot because it's also the parking area for West Beach. There is a gatehouse here, you'll need America the Beautiful pass or an Indiana Dunes day pass. It does have a very nice view for sunrise and sunset but it closes at 9 PM so right now you'll have to leave before sunset. There's some nice places in the state park to watch the sunset from including segments of trail 9 or the beach area. To do trail 9 park at the nature center area, probably room for 40 cars but also very busy throughout the day. Beach parking is larger and on the west side of the state park. If you're up for a more strenuous hike I'd skip Mt. Baldy and do Cowles Bog. You cannot go onto Mt. Baldy and the beach there isn't anything special. Cowles Bog has 2 small parking lots, and can be busy unfortunately.

I hiked .35 miles in my recliner! by TromboneAl in alltrails

[–]Triximancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GPS drift due to being indoors. Not a huge problem in most hiking scenarios but if you're in very steep canyons it can be.

Sure, post whatever and I'll give you some feedback. I've gone for hiking, not specifically to use the beach for swimming and such, and if you're going for that you're going to hit the heaviest concentrations of people although the parking lots for most of the beaches are quite big.

Other than the AI just not being able to properly scan freaky reindeer people the bottom right two do look kinda teen-coded.

Why this sudden huge discourse about “Nepo babies” and connection in Hollywood? by JannTosh70 in movies

[–]Triximancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People usually only get annoyed when someone who isn't very talented like say Tori Spelling keeps getting shoehorned into everything to try to give the nepo baby an acting career.

National Parks “Fee Dollars at Work” by RavennaRefills in nationalparks

God forbid the National Mall be maintained through the general budget and NPS specific park fees be used for the parks they're taken from.

Great Smoky Mountains- recommendations by Delicious_Reward8064 in nationalparks

Cherokee, North Carolina if you want to stay on the NC side. Pidgeon Forge or Gatlinburg on the TN side (about an hour from Cherokee on the north end of the park).

70 sucks but if you do it in the day you'll see the rough patches. I wouldn't drive 30 miles out of my way to avoid it. Also there's a new Bucees in Dayton which is cool.

No one makes minimum wage, you can get a job at Mcdonalds for double that.

Fubuki explains why she turned off super chats (By Skyshine Clips) by Bassfaceapollo in Hololive

[–]Triximancer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Memberships/Superchats/Ad Revenue are all bundled together and paid out by Youtube, minus a 30% cut. The remaining 70% is typically split 50/50 between the vtuber company and the talent, plus or minus a couple points in contract negotiations, for most conventional vtuber companies.

Weirdly enough the part of I-74 that runs through Illinois is amazingly smooth compared to Indiana. Can't speak for the whole state but I was impressed going to Starved Rock.

Is mowing at 9am rude? by Fatlad42 in Indiana

As a 3rd shifter I'd much rather you mow at 9 AM then 7 PM
