Religion has very flawed ideas regarding community, however. It always results in a hierarchical structure and works to exclude those who don't abide by its values.
It is possible to be a good, selfless person and be religious, but I don't think it's possible to have religion without enabling power-grabbing, insular practices too.
My gut had me wanting to say the same thing, but looking at the age ranges, this actually seems reasonable and in line with how many other countries operate. By 6 years old, students in the US are in first grade, for example. Kindergarten a year or two prior as well, which is also compulsory in some states.
You're Mormon and you call yourself a socialist?
Socialism is the antithesis of religion.
Oh no, someone please think about the poor white millionaire's feelings.
Sure, but also worth noting that some prisons are federally run, a state wouldn't have the jurisdiction to ban something that the fed controls. That is why reform needs to come from the top, not just at the state level.
Agreed
Not a battery but sure, that's what I was suggesting.
I think the text is pretty direct about permitting it. If it is listed as an exception to that which shall not exist, then it is explicitly allowed to exist.
It's not a de-facto exception by omission, it is named as permissable within the text of the amendment.
So what other kind of battery would a pager be using that might explode if not lithium? Hydrogen cell?
Sadly the post-civil war amendments include a provision that allows prisoners to be used for unpaid labor.
From the text of the 13th amendment:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Only argument is if the party has been "duly" convicted, which is a recurring issue we see with the US justice system.
Definitely any of the showerthoughts communities
Aorzia has gotten a bit stale lately, hasn't it?
When Samsung last updated One UI several months ago, myself and many other Samsung users (and Pixel users on Android 14 as well, judging by the replies) encountered a bug where swiping posts closed showed only a black background until fully closed, after which the content one would expect to see would appear.
Last night, One UI updated to 6.1 on my device, and when I used Sync this morning, I noticed that the black background bug is no longer happening.
!Unfortunately I now need to re-learn my navigation gestures because Samsung apparently thinks it's fine to force people to completely re-learn how they navigate their phone overnight...!<

Seen on a comment today, this user with an Arabic username, written right to left, is rendered in between the points value and label text in Sync, rather than to the left of the value as expected.

From the Fanfest keynote, the 6.55 update will come with a full 24-hour downtime while they work on replacing the JP server infrastructure.
You're ok with me losing my rights then, and for that I sincerely resent you.
