No idea what building that is or what’s inside, but I love me a giant brutalist megastructure.

Trump: “We want to pay SNAP, we just don’t know how to! We don’t want to illegally allocate funds, we need the courts to tell us how to proceed!”

Courts: “This is how to pay it; you have to do so.”

Trump: [Appeals]

Well… yes? Did you read the article? Or the thread you’re replying to?

There are two court cases here (as you seem to understand…) - a civil case against the school, which awarded monetary damages to the teacher (as civil cases often do), and a criminal case against the mother, which awarded prison time (as criminal cases often do). Quite literally, as I stated in the post you replied to, the monetary damages she’s collecting are because the school administrator didn’t do her job. The prison time the mother is serving is because she had an unsecured firearm in her house that the child used. They’re two different things.

I firmly believe that police officer testimony that can’t be backed up by bodycam footage shouldn’t even be admissible. There’s essentially no reason for a cop to not have their bodycam turned on at all times unless they specifically chose to turn it off, so there’s no reason we should have to accept testimony without it.

It’s not absolving the mother of anything. This is a civil case against the school specifically because the administrator did not do their job. There was a separate, criminal case against the mother, which came with its own penalties.

Lairmore had testified that the sandwich “exploded all over” his chest and claimed he could smell mustard and onions. But a photo showed that the sandwich was still in its wrapper on the ground after it hit Lairmore in his bulletproof vest.

So he perjured himself, then? Surely something’s going to come of that? No? Huh, okay, then.

Well, no. She’s collecting tax payer dollars because a school administrator didn’t do anything when told that the child might have a gun.

An even scarier thought is that the Bible could actually be making them seem way better than they are in reality.

How many articles do we need to have posted about this? I swear this is the 15 or 20th one I’ve seen posted in the last 24 hours.

Would be hilarious if people just kept going and putting more eyes on it every time they removed them.

No, but you sure need more of it.

why would toilet paper be cheaper if you shave your butthole

Imagine wiping peanut butter off of a tile floor vs. wiping it out of a shag carpet.

That was our feeling, too - if we did lose everything, we have digital backups of those documents. The chances are obviously low of having a fire, but that’s not really the point… the intent is to plan for the “what if” scenario. If you want 100% fire safety, you store things off-site, but this was an acceptable level of risk for the cost, for us. You mention floods; these boxes are rated for much longer in water, so they might be applicable to your use-case.

We have a fireproof / waterproof safe box we store documents like that in (essentially this). It’s not going to keep an intruder from getting the documents if they wanted to (they could just take the box with them and smash it open, it’s certainly not good as an anti-theft device) but it’s waterproof and fireproof and that’s more what we were concerned with.

It’s worth noting that these aren’t rated to protect documents from a prolonged intense fire; if your house burns to the ground, it’s probably not going to help.

if an RSS bot posts an article, a human is not going to post it again

I reject your premise, on the basis that it seems like basically every article, worth reading or not, is posted repeatedly (by humans) over the span of a day or two anyway.

Of course, I block the bot accounts, so if there are interesting articles that aren’t being re-posted, I can’t see them, but… I’d say my Lemmy experience is considerably better even with the presumed reduction in content.

To directly answer your question, even if I could see them, I wouldn’t engage with bot account posts.

Another Crab’s Treasure is excellent.

Etrian Odyssey HD is a good game but has Denuvo DRM for some reason so do with that what you will.

TW:WH3 is kind of a mess with an absurd amount of overpriced DLC; what you’re getting here is only a small piece of the game.

Can’t comment on the rest, as I haven’t played them.

So you want to create a human exploitation / profit maximising system?

It doesn’t have to be that way. At its core, the idea of an app that can connect people who need a service with people who can provide that service is good; it’s just the over-monetization that makes it awful.

You might be a furry if…

I like the one in Secondhand Lions. Similar theme. Perhaps more believable.
