The Bellamy Salute was pretty much the same. The Pledge of Allegiance was done with it. It was changed to the hand over heart style in 1942.

The irony is it was ruled based on freedom of religion, primarily.

I too was born in the 1900s.

Of course.

I will start calling my JSON Web Tokens impregnated goblins.

Phone material stopped mattering the moment camera bumps became a thing. Now, nearly everyone slaps a case to balance out the bump.

That said, I miss my completely mirrored-back Sony Xperia Z5 Premium.

Recently, Mr. Lawrence said, customers have been snapping up used Teslas for a little over $20,000, after applying a $4,000 federal tax credit.

3rd sentence?

I’ll share the rest because the paywall:

Carmakers including Tesla, Ford, General Motors and Stellantis, the owner of Jeep, have announced plans for electric vehicles that would sell new for as little as $25,000.

More than half of the used electric vehicles on the market sell for less than $30,000, according to Recurrent, a research firm that focuses on the used E.V. market.

That’s easy: Alt+130

But for a tenkeyless one, that’s what Wikipedia highlighting is for.

That’s Republicanism and that left the US Republican Party years ago.

Now it’s all about Conservatism through any means. And it’s not even pure Conservatism: it’s heavily tainted with Tribalism.

I didn’t really care about this thread until I read this comment.

The Who were kinda silly (eg: Boris the Spider) in their early years.

I have a PS5. Got FF7:Remake the minute it came out. Now I’m in a position where I want to play Rebirth so much I want to experience it on my best device, my PC.

That’s three ad-hominem attacks. But sure, those are your “arguments”. Well argued. /s

But of course, when you have nothing meaningful to say, you just attack people. I guess that’s to be expected. Just blame the person when you get called out. You could have taken this as a lesson and admitted you were wrong, and learned, but you decided to double down and insult people instead. Well argued.

Stop deflecting and stop trying to gaslight me. If prisons are the same as jails in this regard then why dispute? Why even bring it up? You’re retroactively trying to save face.

I am fully aware how prisons and jails are similar and how they are different. You’re the one who was trying to correct somebody and then got downvoted to oblivion.

Oh, but now you were just randomly bringing an unrelated technical point about how jails can hold innocent people now that you’ve been confronted with the facts. /s

I don’t have to distract with cheap ad-hominem attacks when I can quote your words right back to you:

Prison. Not jail.

Jails are temporary holding areas until you get to see a judge. Which means you could still be innocent at that point.

Yep. That’s the right definition. Not what you said. You said jail is for innocent people. You also said the definition doesn’t differ no matter where you are and the link clearly defined the US can have a different interpretation (see interchangeable use).

You should read what you link to (emphasis mine).

Jail and prison are often used interchangeably as places of confinement. If you want to be specific jail can be used to describe a place for those awaiting trial or held for minor crimes, whereas prison describes a place for criminals convicted of serious crimes.

You said:

Jails are temporary holding areas until you get to see a judge. Which means you could still be innocent at that point.

You can be convicted and in jail, which makes perfect sense in Monopoly, since it’s generally for a shorter period of time. They are both synonymous for the purpose of imprisoning somebody but different on how drastic the crimes you are behind bar for. In my opinion you should be in jail for minor crimes and not put in prison and it’s perfect for Monopoly.
