I feel like it would be pretty quickly determined that you are the "victim" in that scenario. I have actually carried explosives through a TSA checkpoint before though; it was the BEST LAYOVER EVER. They came to the lounge I was in asking for volunteers to train the dogs and then handed me a backpack with semtex in it and put me in line. The dog found me, I told him he was a GOOD BOY and got to throw his kong for him and rub his belly. 45/10, would layover again.

Depending on what airports they tried to go through they likely would have been caught. Even garbage security theater like the TSA catches concealed explosives fairly well.

I’m all for the most humane and ethical means of getting meat and the day I can get a steak that didn’t require a cow to die but is indistinguishable from the real thing I will absolutely switch over, but until then I’m going to enjoy delicious, delicious duck and not feel bad about. Wouldn’t eat a dog even in an apocalypse though.

OK, I genuinely have no clue what got that post removed. If you're gonna have your own magic dictionary of what's allowed then you're gonna need to let people know what are and are not the special "no-no" words. It wasn't even an edgy comment, it was just calling out the Russian bullshit, or was that the issue? Gotta protect the Russian shills or something?

I always fall back on the concept of graphing how delicious the animal is vs how much of an asshole it is. Ducks? Absolutely delicious and raging assholes; they are the perfect meal. Dogs? Too sweet to ever try and on the negative side of the asshole graph. Cats? Rather asshole but not sure how they taste...

Yeah, the issue was it was a direct response to courts deliberately ignoring all other precedents to purposefully deny the right. If you can't apply scrutiny due to your own personal biases you lose scrutiny.

The media are absolutely working together to push specific political viewpoints. This specific manifesto being blocked fits perfectly with the openly stated political goals of the majority of media in the US.

They are released very quickly if they fit the desired political narrative, just look at the buffalo shooter and how quickly every major news article dove into his manifesto as soon as they got their hands on it. If and when it can be used to promote a specific view it is released, if it doesn’t promote the correct view it sits for a while until they can figure out how to spin it or the hype dies down and if it hurts the desired view it is blocked like this one.
I would also suggest that you never speak or write any of these assholes’ real names. The notoriety is what they seek and every time a stranger mentions them by name they get their wish.

How is this different from any other shooting where there is a manifesto left behind? This is nothing new and it is very common that they are released very shortly after the shooting.

They’re a joke to all the manufacturers that went all in on EVs before the market fell out from under them.
theyoyomaster 5 months ago • 75%
Prices for even 200k mile used vehicles are skyrocketing and cheap new cars simply don’t exist. Yes, ICE is the majority of vehicles out there, especially in rural areas, but they are more expensive and less available than ever. 10 years ago I bought a 100k mile Volvo wagon for $10k, put 50k more miles on it then sold it for $5k; if I wanted to buy the exact same car back today with 250k miles i would need to pay $15k for it. As manufacturers shift to EVs that problem is only going to get worse.

There is a logical reason to be against forced adoption before the technology matures. For a lot of the country they are not a viable replacement for ICE yet. They’re improving, but not as fast as ICEs are being phased out and that leaves a lot of places where a dwindling used market will be the only option for many people.

When moving to an unfamiliar area there’s tons of value to a good realtor. To know what the local market is like, which school districts matter to which people. Which roads can flood and what your morning commute is going to be like or how loud the planes are going to be over the house. I can spend weeks doing all the leg work myself but realistically, my time is worth more than that to me. A shitty realtor doesn’t give much value, a good one absolutely can. Also, working as an intermediary with shitty sellers or buyers to insulate you from other peoples unreasonableness is one of their main jobs.
The realtor we used to buy that HOA house saw us as a zero effort easy payday. The one that sold that house for us did an absolutely amazing job and the one we used to buy our current home got us a house we absolutely love for less than we were looking to spend.

It wasn’t worth starting over again with the way the market was. It was Seattle area in 2017 where every sale was a bidding war. There are good realtors, that just wasn’t one.

We specifically only looked for houses without HOAs, then during closing it was revealed that there was one the realtor "missed" because it was basically defunct. Within weeks of moving in we got a letter saying how the HOA was stepping up its game to make up for the last few years and it became the bane of our existence. One of the board members was obsessed with issuing citations and fining people for backing cars into their driveways because "the CCRs say that you can't park a vehicle in an extreme state of disrepair for more than 48 hours so if you back it in I can't see if it has a current registration sticker on the license plate." The only people I've ever met that like them are control freak karens like that dude.
Fuck HOAs.

The percentage of people I know that like HOAs is absurdly small, including neighbors and acquaintances from the last HOA I was in. Almost everyone I know hates them but is forced to deal with them because almost every neighborhood has one. Towns require them for new zoning because it allows them to pass the buck on code enforcement and then a handful of people love them because it lets them power trip The vast majority are just stuck with them due to lack of options.

Yeah, but to say a Mach 3 cruise missile isn’t high speed because it isn’t hypersonic is missing the point.
theyoyomaster 5 months ago • 100%
Just because hypersonic are reported on frequently as a catchy headline doesn’t mean they are functional weapons that any given country could go out and buy on the open market. They are very much in the test/development stage and only in reach for the top global super powers. No, it’s not as fast as the vaporwave buzzwords and if we’re doing our procurement from the ACE Combat DLC marketplace then sure, but for context, the US still relies primarily on the Tomahawk which flies at M.74, the same as a C-17. This absolutely is a high speed cruise missile.

Yeah, my degree is in comp sci and I am very aware of what is possible. 99.9999% of the time scripting just results in the desired content being covered by something unnecessary and making what the user is attempting to view/interact with jump to somewhere else against their wishes. This is absolutely the best usage of scripting I’ve ever seen on the web.

They were filming in a state that has a law specifying the exact opposite. “I thought the gun wasn’t loaded” is codified as not being an excuse for a negligent shooting and there isn’t a “it was a movie set” carve out to the law. Hollywood also seems to be extremely split on this with some actors saying you always check and take personal responsibility and others saying to just trust what you are told. If anything hopefully this will lead to actual best practices being adopted industry wide because the current hodgepodge isn’t cutting it.

I posted a truthfully presented article about a statement made by a known liar and pointed out that he can't be trusted. Meanwhile, you literally just called me a Trump supporter which just goes to show how ignorant you have become by aggressively applying blinders to your entire world view while attempting to do so to others. I am not, and have never been a Trump supporter. I am a conservative leaning moderate, Trump is neither conservative nor is he moderate; he has never been either of these things in his entire life so why would I support him. If you read anything other than curated and spoon fed takes that tell you only what you wanted to hear you might actually be able to articulate an argument to someone who disagrees with you.

I literally added a caption saying it was lies, or didn't you see that. You're the one shouting down anyone who doesn't agree with you. I do not believe a word Trump says, I do not support him and I don't agree with what is in the article. But reading and discussing what he does say is valid to the conversation. Only tolerating 3rd party discussion about what he said and avoiding the actual first party sources just makes people who agree with you smug and everyone else think you're hiding something.

Attacking people for posting or discussing something, even in a negative light, because you disagree with it is literally the definition of a "misinformation ban." When you do this you don't rid the world of that information, you force both extremes to retreat their own echo chambers and make the divide even worse. Just because you agree with your own echo chamber doesn't mean you can force it on others by shouting down anyone you disagree with (or sometimes agree with like in this scenario). All that does is make people ignore you and think you're an asshole. The only way to actually convince those in the middle is to understand both sides and explain why yours is right. If people think shouting down and banning other thoughts are your only tools they assume you're a tool with no actual substance behind your reasoning.

With the caption “he’s lying again.” Sticking your head in the sand and copying the ministry of magic’s approach after the triwizard cup isn’t going to help anything. Trying to “ban” misinformation just leads to lies on both sides. Reading both sides yourself and knowing what parts are true and lies allows you to correctly argue it to others.

Hello, I’m starting a project to build something for a friends kid who’s father is a Huey pilot. I ordered the switch/panel in the image and want to 3d print an enclosure to mount it on that plays the song when the switch is in the on position. Per the website the switch is fully functional, I just need to wire it to something to use it. Does anyone have suggestions on a bare bones controller to use and how to set it up to play an MP3 so long as the switch is in the on position? In a perfect world I would love for it to resume the position if it’s quickly toggled but restart if it sits more than a minute or so but realistically just playing the song would be more than enough. While I’m new to Raspberry Pi I’m not that daunted by the task. I’ve been soldering since elementary school and have a degree in comp sci, but haven’t done any coding since graduating 10+ years ago. I do have a Pi hole but using an off the shelf package on a premade pi with step by step instructions doesn’t really count as “experience” for pi in my opinion. Any suggestions are welcome, especially if someone can recommend some mini speakers that actually sound half decent. I’m not looking to tear a Bose Bluetooth apart but something slightly less tin-canny than a 2004 Nokia ringtone would be nice. Thanks in advance!
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A new California law that bans people from carrying firearms in most public places was once again blocked from taking effect Saturday as a court case challenging it continues. A 9th Circuit Court of Appeals panel dissolved a temporary hold on a lower court injunction blocking the law. The hold was issued by a different 9th Circuit panel and had allowed the law to go into effect Jan. 1. Saturday’s decision keeps in place a Dec. 20 ruling by U.S. District Judge Cormac Carney blocking the law. Carney said that it violates the Second Amendment and that gun rights groups would likely prevail in proving it unconstitutional. The law, signed by Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, prohibits people from carrying concealed guns in 26 types of places including public parks and playgrounds, churches, banks and zoos. The ban applies regardless of whether a person has a concealed carry permit.

Was just given a streamlight wedge at work and so far I’m really liking it. It’s not anything super special but it’s bright enough for what I need and the form factor is amazing. Much more comfortable in a pocket and sits flat even when wearing a harness over it. Battery life has been sufficient too, I’m yet to ever have any issues with occasional top offs every few days.
In line with her comments regarding her personal bias prior to hearing arguments, she determined that magazines aren’t covered by the 2A and even if they were, banning them fits within history and tradition, because… um… yeah, it gets a bit muddy after that. Still waiting on Benitez to issue the opinion in his case.
