School Resource Officers can’t charge kids with felonies only a prosecutor can do that. A cop can arrest someone. Now you might think I’m being pedantic but I think it is an important distinction. Many times we blame cops and completely over look the fact that some of the blame lies with the prosecutor.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
832·2 years agoenjoying wine can be a hobby (wine connoisseur)
Just because alcoholics attempt to justify the fact that they want to get drunk whenever they want to by “tasting” wine doesn’t make it a hobby. It just makes it sad.

Now can you explain to me how smoking weed gives you substantial skills or knowledge?

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Waiting in a queue to see a Web siteEnglish
4·2 years agoThat actually makes the most sense. It makes you queue because there are only so many tests they can administer at a time. So if the website is offline for maintenance it allows those that tried to access the website first to have their spot saved. Rather then forcing everyone to try and get on the website at once when the matinenece window ends. Now I kinda wish more websites that have limited sign ups did this.

5·2 years agoYeah take a look at something like Twitch and how many ads they shove down your throat. Yet 100,000’s of people keep coming back again and again.
I always thought it was more to do with the fact that their youngest son had just turned 18. So he was probably moving out of the house to college. There is a big culture here in the US to “stick it out for the kids until they move out” mentality. So I just thought that is what they were doing.
It’s okay we all have our dumb days.

11·2 years agoNot according the FDA. You can put something down as Honey as long as there is at least some honey in there. Source: https://www.fda.gov/files/food/published/PDF---Guidance-for-Industry--Proper-Labeling-of-Honey-and-Honey-Products.pdf
Not if the business is making under a certain amount each year. Then they can request for an exemption of the nutritional labeling.

51·2 years agoBut they call it honey blend
That is illegal as the must label it with what the Honey is blended with. So in this case you’d need to have it labeled “Blended Honey with Corn Syrup” or some variation of that.
You have to label the honey with the ingredients it is blended with as well in the US. So for this it would need to be “Blend of Honey and High Fructose Corn Syrup”.

331·2 years agoIt is also required in America. The FDA requires it except for small business. Also the EU wouldn’t even let this have the word “Honey” in the name at all. I’d assume that the retail business above doesn’t reach the threshold of 500,000 so can request for an exemption of nutritional labeling.

Technology@lemmy.world•The HDMI Forum rejected AMD's open source HDMI 2.1 implementationEnglish
3·2 years agoAlright this sent me down a rabbit hole so I’m going to try to and summarize really quickly.
1st, VESA requires a membership but in reality you need a company that has a vested interest in what VESA does. So you have to pay a huge due to be apart of it. This is quite BS according to me, the fact that they can do this and still claim to be an open standard. Source
2nd, VESA never tried to implement a royalty based off the Display Port Standard. The company that did that was MPEG LA, LLC, they aren’t affiliated with VESA. Rather this company is a patent pool company that attempted to enforce their clients (such as Sony) licensing fees. They seemed to have backed off of this back in 2016 as the last patent used was for the Display Port Standard 1.4. Source
3rd Content Protection was necessary if you want wide spread adoption. Companies aren’t going to want to do business with you if you allow for their IP to be ripped. As well, VESA is just a collection of companies that have voting shares in the company. So those corporate features are just par for the course.
