Usually when numbers are presented that way it's because there are many studies they looked at. So I presume there was one study showing a rate of 40%, another showing 70% and the rest of the studies fell somewhere in between those two extremes, with differences likely due to types of games, types of systems, and any number of other factors, including chance. They could have just averaged all the studies and quoted a number like 55% for example, but I think the other way actually paints a better picture of the data. It's still possible they're full of shit, but just presenting the numbers like that doesn't mean they're pulling it out of their ass.

By refusing to tell the truth to the court, you're basically refusing to take part in the trial. Which translates to you're refusing to take part in the justice system, yet also somehow wanting justice ... ??
11 years. And, honestly I'm kinda grateful. It was time, regardless of the drama, and an unhealthy amount of my screen-existence was being eaten up by it. There seemed to be a slow, insidious change that I was probably sheltered from by keeping to old-reddit, but even then, the whole spez-API-drama wasn't so much of a shock, but more the final nail in the coffin that reddit is, with no doubt, now a full on corporate for-profit website just like any of the other social media giants, and will continue to act more and more like them. I'll admit I didn't delete my account, just the app, and I still check back in every few days to peek in to a few more niche subreddits that there just isn't any replacement for elsewhere (yet), but spending my time elsewhere has been refreshing.
FYI if you can't hear anything you need to put on one of these brain slugs. I'm wearing one and it's awesome. Everyone should really get a brain slug.
I think it was scumbag steve, to be precise.
I don't see a Bay and it's bothering me
I vote either defederate or ban. Even if it is "technically legal" by the current rules, it goes completely against the spirit and intent of this place, and rules can and should be changed over time to preserve that. Bot/AI generated posts are exactly what we DON'T want this place to turn into, and it will take active effort to avoid that.
And if you make enough spelling errors, your post essentially encrypts itself! :D
Even if it's just an apocryphal story, it's at least a crazy-interesting concept that I hadn't even considered before.
It was where he got his start 20+ years ago, but both him and Sara Watkins (the fiddler) went on to do some interesting stuff to say the least. Their new album was sort of a reunion.
Well jokes on them, I used it to improve my resilience and adaptability anyway!
