How do you know that? Are the actual shapes a standard convention for those groups?

Um, I don't think anyone will be intimidated by someone with a gun at 600 yards in a place milling with loads of people.... maybe on somewhere like Salt Lake flats with few people around.

Something about this is mentioned in Reuters: https://www.reuters.com/world/market-chinas-wuhan-likely-origin-covid-19-outbreak-study-2021-11-19/

If the atoms aren't denoted, I think they are assumed to be carbon atoms.

Walking over the same old ground is not going to come up with anything new. Peterkin is relatively new, so I can forgive him. Everything like that is in the SFN archives to peruse.

A lot of new science is actually conjecture, with only mathematical credibility and no actual measurements, like dark matter. "All models are wrong but some are useful". Most of the internet, outside of here and a few others, is receptive to personal pet theories.

Theories in science are longstanding and evidentially well-supported. You are talking about hypotheses, which may be transient and purely speculative... a starting point.

Not sure where to put this. Please move as appropriate, mods. I'm not sure how it's going to develop. What are the consequences and effects of live court broadcasts up to this point in time on the execution of justice and how may it develop in the future?

Yes. As we've said many times before: you can't fix stupid. As you say, the only way to try and fix the consequences is put sticking plasters on it, like you mention.

The original Constitution, as written then, belongs in a museum as a curio of US history, just like our Magna Carta. It should be a document that morphs with the needs of the prevailing times. To me, it's like Islamic fundamentalists demanding people live according to the Koran, as written in 6AD.

When the 21st century GOP says 'Founding Fathers' they mean 'God Almighty', therefore, the constitution is written in stone and can no longer be amended.

Mig's Italian-Canuck.

You are stretching it a bit, Sensei. He had a a brand new gun... it gave him a metaphorical erection. he wanted to pose with it in public. It's only designed purpose is to put a hole in people... it was an AR-15.... a copy of an assault rifle.

He didn't have a permit. It doesn't matter, the judge had his own popularity to consider and his election chances next round (cue my question about circuit judges being elected). It all smells a bit pooey. As a side note, the judge had a 'God Bless America' ringtone that he allowed to ring during sessions and ostentatiuosly honoured veterans that were present... stink or what?

There you go. lol

What, travelling 20 miles with an assault rifle for no plausible reason other han that it excited him. Youneed to look at his intent for being their with a lethal weapon.

That's what the far-right wingnuts. yes.

He defended himself because he was attacked, but he went out of his way to put himself in that position...clear?

Unfortunately, I've been following it via Reuters and AP several times a day since it started. What did you mean by "bothering to watch", Sensei? Every nation has it's dubious, reprehensible underbelly and conditions are ripe for them to thrive atm... in many areas of the world as well.

That's a case of passive absorption vs active absorption, I think. Obviously, you need to periodically interject some active analysis when absorbing objective information at your own pace, and spoken video inhibits that. Don't forget, when you open your mouth, your brain shuts down.

It's use as a starting point is increasing and I dislike it for reasons you mention. When it comes to the serious or technical, text removes a lot of fluff and time. I read and absorb text much faster. Being deaf has nothing to do with it, of course. If I'm going to lip-read, I might as well read text at the faster rate.

You have four posts. Do you have any idea how much of our lives we've lost watching pointless videos? 'Wary' is the word. Even the most respected member here wouldn't expect us to watch such a long programme, they would summarize the salient points what was said. You have one more post until tomorrow. It mitigates spamming. No limits on posting after that. Welcome to the forum.

And you wish us to wade through two hours of somebody's opinion.

It's a load of codswallop.

LOL
