Yes, but it's mostly shifting because of Jupiter. It's just so dang heavy. Like, a couple times heavier than every other planet put together. I don't have the brain wattage to do the cool math right now, but a quick google search says that while the barycenter of the solar system does depend on all the planets, more often than not, it is outside the sun

Totalitarians try to use cases like this to take your rights away. Never forget how this impacts the innocent. If they can force this man to unlock his phone, they can force any innocent person to do the same. If the police think you've committed a crime, accessing your phone will never make them think you're innocent. The absolute best case scenario is that they don't find anything useful to their case. The worst case scenario is that they find your social media account where you called arson based last year, and they will use that against you.

And also that time you refused to finish a book series because it had a gay and a nonbinary character in it

Definitely do. Sometimes it's the only way to know whether someone just had one bad take, or if they're genuinely awful and not worth your time to reply to

Wow, a british news org fucking up the most basic fact checking? Who would have ever expected that?

Yup. My family bought me a new TV to replace the one I've been using for 15 years, and they keep telling me how great it is that I can get movies and TV shows for free, and I can sign in to all the streaming services right from my TV!

I don't have the heart to tell them that I'll die before this TV connects to anything other than an HDMI cord
