That, AND the software is a piece of shit that you need to wait 15 minutes every time you jump to a different time, even if that time is 5 seconds away… Ask me how I come to be so quick with this response. I’m not bitter about working with a cheap employer’s video system, not at all.

I once had a beagle that was a voracious insect killer. She would play with spiders, cockroaches, ants, etc. the same way people talk about cats playing with mice. Eventually, she would always make a mistake of pressing too hard when trapping the insect and pulling it back, and we’d have another little squish spot by the back door that needed to be cleaned.

Clearly what we all mean when we say depose is get them in front of a lawyer asking questions on the record.

Though the article made sure to mention she pulled into his way

I mean, like it or not, that’s the way the law reads and is applied. We run into it with motorcycles all the time. Barring extreme cases, the car that pulls in front of the speeding vehicle is ‘at fault.’

I’ve got this thing called a phone that accesses this other thing called the internet which has this other thing called a campaign website with links to these other things that the person running for office has stated in an official manner about their policies. Why the hell would I want someone to come talk to me in person, where they are going to lack information, bumble about trying to set the right tone, and take far longer to get the point across than these five words: Harris is better than Trump.

I can see it for a small, local candidate… but for the example given of the Harris campaign, the fucking presidential race? Come on, let’s be serious.

I prefer the dratini->gyrados / magikarp->dragonite pipeline theory, myself, but I can gestate with this caterpie branch. The venonat->butterfree coloring and eyes do seem too coincidental. Maybe the artists that worked on each one had their favorite colors, so pokemon they did all ended up schemed similarly?

Can you imagine knowing that people refuse to help you because they think ghosts are real? Dying of preventable causes because some idiot was told something invisible existed? Medicine Aid right at your fingertips from qualified professionals but quasi-religion ensured it didn’t happen?

Repair steps are one of the few tasks that I feel videos are better than words (and sometimes pictures). It definitely helps to see the motions they’re taking and a single capture of the location from walking up to the car (or other repairable object) all the way to looking at the part that needs fixing.

I mean, the biggest issue with me for the great googlio isn’t the ads and the ai, both of which I hate, but the actual shit-infested results. It’s not removing the ads full of SEO that are posing as websites, it’s just giving you an old UI for the new 2025™ search.

If the rules are the same everywhere, they would do what every other competent place that has procedures that need to be followed does, and post them at the front. The fact that a TSA bitch has to stand there and tell you what to do means they’ve already failed.
