No it’s more like:

Go to trial = no plea deal at all = risking harsher sentence OR you know you can prove your innocence

Guilty plea = accepting full responsibility for the crime and accepting the prosecutions deal of (usually) a lesser sentence to skip the trial and go straight to punishment.

Alford plea = same as above but maintaining that you are innocent of the charges but cannot prove that against the prosecutions evidence.

As others have stated, an Alford plea often has to be approved or accepted by the judge or prosecutors so it’s not always an option for everyone.

They take an Alford plea to avoid a harsher sentence that could come at trial and/or they’re 1000% sure they’re innocent but can’t prove it (yet).

When a person enters an Alford plea, they maintain their innocence but acknowledge that the prosecution has enough evidence to likely convict them if the case went to trial. In contrast, a guilty plea is an outright admission of guilt.

An Alford plea allows a defendant to avoid the risk of a harsher sentence at trial while not admitting to the crime itself.

In essence, an Alford plea is about accepting the legal consequences without admitting personal guilt.

I’m on a lemmy server lemm.ee and am able to see and comment on this post in kbin.social. That’s the beauty of the fediverse.

No, Voyager took all its cues initially from Apollo the Reddit app. No idea what memmy was doing 🤷

Fairly certain it’s just an OS crash but good luck getting apple support to help confirm that 🙄

Yeah Voyager is amazing. Still not 100% perfect but it’s the closest of all the (iOS) apps I’m aware of.

This is our chance everyone, let’s show Buzzfeed that Lemmy is the new place to farm content!

When I saw the episode I had no idea it was based on a real life story 🤯😆

America has a similar setup except our hoses don’t attach to the valves, we have to hold them. And if they do attach, there’s usually a squeeze valve we have to squeeze near the tire to ‘open’ the hose and allow air in. America’s setup seems designed to keep you near the tire.

I have filled a lot of tires and I cannot think of a single time where I had appropriate equipment to inflate the tire from any position that wasn’t right in front of it.

Only things I miss in Avelon at this point are more sorting options for Home feed and a not full black dark mode. Voyager solves both of those for me so that’s where I’ve mostly been.

Because America and NTSC use instead of PAL would be my guess.

idk why this is correct, but it is.

Back in the day you take that .45 cents and throw it in a big old empty pickle jar with the rest of your loose change.

Voyager is live in the App Store now 😉

It’s very weird to me that Memmy refuses to just use the upvote count arrow next to the username for upvotes/downvotes, like dozens of other apps do.

Thanks?

Not going to go research for you, but from reading articles linked here it appears the issue with the submersible was fear that it would become trapped and really block everyone in the cave. Elon said he had an inflatable model to send first to prove it would fit but I doubt things ever got that far.

Oddly enough I noticed this behavior in another app, not Memmy. Might be something larger going on?
