Yes, if you are driving you’re required by law in New York state to provide your driver’s license if asked.
If you’re walking to work you don’t have to carry ID, and you only have to identify yourself if they have a reasonable suspicion that you’re committing a crime.
Edit: Holy shit y’all are insane. I knew Lemmy was an echo chamber but mass downvoting simple, factual information like this really makes me think less of you.

Yeah, cuz howling at the moon definitely isn’t something regular wolves are known for.
A tactic used when the person speaking has been recognized to speak according to the rules of the legislature. I don’t really see why that’s relevant here though?
No, see, it should be allowed when we agree with the people making the disruption. Otherwise absolutely not!
Kinda brilliant on the class president’s part - still give the speech and get the media coverage for it, but do it before commencement so they’re less likely to steal your diploma as a result.
OK, so we know the game in question is not Dark Souls, because the great scythe is fast, hits like a truck, has massive range, and has bleed.
An awful lot of the neckbeards from the comic in these comments.
The one on All about a week ago was better.
More than a quarter of the independent studies still found neutral outcomes though.
And then if that rando did it every day for like five years, I’d get tired of their shit too.
They did use Y-cruncher.
Edit: Some other fun tidbits: most of that 2.2 petabytes of storage wasn’t actually used to store the 300 trillion digits itself - that number of digits fits in like 170 terabytes (which LTT is thinking of making available as a download, lol) - it’s actually used as pseudo-ram during the actual calculation.
I wanted to just post the video, which has a lot more information (though not the kind of info you’re looking for), but I didn’t know if an LTT video was an “official” enough source for this community.
I suppose this was probably the first time that all of the digits of pi up to 300 trillion were calculated, even if the 300 trillionth specifically was already known.
Yeah, liberal/left subs definitely don’t do that.
True, but as usual, that’s offset elsewhere in the grammar (and a binary or ternary noun class system doesn’t really introduce that much complexity).
English still has number distinctions with multiple irregular patterns (and plural/collective distinctions like “fish/fish/fishes”), and even lesser recognized animacy distinctions that must take up some space in the grammar too (“my face” is fine, but “the face of mine” is odd, while “the clock’s face” and “the face of the clock” are both fine).
One example of such a process is subregular patterns getting extended instead of always levelling toward the most productive constructions.
In many southern dialects, for example, even though the productive past tense is the “-ed” past (just like it is in all modern varieties of English), and so we normally would expect to get regularization like “cleave/clove/cloven” > “cleave/cleaved/cleaved”, we instead in these dialects get irregular examples like “bring/brought/brought” being regularized not to expected productive “bring/bringed/bringed”, but rather “bring/brang/brung” on the pattern of “sing/sang/sung”, “drink/drank/drunk”, etc.
Extending subregularities like this can cause irregular patterns to persist and grow stronger over time.
I suppose that technically this isn’t introducing a new irregularity so much as it is helping an older one persist, but it’s a similar process.
Other recent innovations include things like Canadian and northern US English “I’m done my homework”, northern positive anymore (“Anymore, I go to the store on Fridays”), and prepositional “because” (“I can’t come tonight, because homework”).
Again, this isn’t exactly the development of new irregular morphology (word-building rules) specifically, but these are analogous processes elsewhere in the grammar.
It’s also worth mentioning that English is becoming more and more of an isolating language over time (a language with less morphology/word-building processes), and so we’d expect irregular morphology specifically to become less common in these systems over time.
That was kinda rambly, and way more than you asked for - I hope it made some sort of sense.
It isn’t though.
It may seem like it is, but English is actually becoming more regular over time in many dialects.
Dialects dropping the 3rd person singular -s, dropping irregular (and even regular!) plurals, dialects eliminating the subjunctive, and past tense/participle distinctions. In the phonology you have marked features like English’s interdental fricatives going away as well. All of these processes are producing less marked and more regular structures across the English-speaking world.
As always, there are processes countering these and introducing more irregularity, but as cattywampas mentioned, these are the sorts of processes that all languages are always undergoing. English really isn’t special - it’s just a natural language like any other.
I’ve heard that a few of the third party mobile apps still show the specific moderator who took action, and I think other moderators/admins can see which mods took action as well. Either way, we would need some reasonable amount of proof/assurance that the devs had actually stepped back from active moderation, and this seems to be the non-negotiable sticking point for many users, including myself.
I am completely fine with them still being the admins of the instance because of its importance as a testbed. And, I think they should have a community that they belong to, especially when that community reflects their values and is so satisfied with them. The important thing for a lot of us is that they themselves do not take a direct, active role in the distasteful censorship that goes on in .ml.
As I told Nutonic elsewhere in this thread, I solemnly swear that as soon as I’m convinced that both devs have permanently stepped back from active moderation of .ml, I will set up recurring donations going forward and provide receipts.
Edit: It was in the lemm.ee thread that I told Nutonic that, not this one.
Cops can always find a reason to pull you over. Also, they have no obligation to tell you why they did so. 1 mph over the speed limit? Valid traffic stop. You slowly drifted from the right side of the lane to the left side? Valid traffic stop in the eyes of the law.
Is it bullshit? Yes. Illegal? No.
Is the driver in the OP still required to provide his license when pulled over?
Yes.
