See, it's stories like this one that make me really question just how ethical it is to completely eliminate Down's from the gene pool. I understand it's the correct medical and scientific thing to do, it's just that it sometimes feels a little bit like eugenics for me.

It is eugenics, I just don't see how that's a problem. Eugenics isn't inherently bad, you're just thinking of bad eugenics.

You say all that, but the fact that Switch 2 is the fastest selling console ever shows that people disagree.

When has release sales ever been a good indicator of quality? Heck, when have sales in general ever been a reliable indicator of quality?

Ok, but what about indie games,m? Does every game just work on SteamOS now? Or is that game dependent?

Honestly if there were a solid, unbiased news source that just covered geopolitics and science, I'd be all over that. But now I just sub to Ground, and that works decently well.

They did, read the complaint: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.wied.11...

The judge got upset that they were waiting in the public hallway outside the courtroom.

Reading through that, it does seem like a very hasty decision on the judge's part. But then again, I don't know what else you're supposed to do if you think the warrant for the arrest is based on an unjust premise (Which Dugan presumably thought, otherwise I have no idea why she'd act the way she did). This does make it pretty clear that the arrest of the judge is justified, unless there are some special provisions for judges that I'm unaware of that allow judges to be exempt from title 18 code 1071 and code 1505, which is entirely possible since the most relevant thing about US law I know is jurisprudence. Barring that possibility, what should be more on the top of everyone's minds is how this is resolved in court.

Yes, it is too much for consumers... Farmers might have no choice though if they want a new truck
