sara , in Third person charged for infant’s death from fentanyl in New York City daycare

Everyone involved should go to prison for a very long time. I know fentanyl dealers probably aren’t concerned with human life in the first place, but operating a daycare as a front is beyond fucked up.

Rapidcreek , in Before Jan. 6, the FBI predicted extremists would be 'very willing to take action' over a 2020 election dispute

The same problem with every large foul up: communication across agencies. It’s as if they’re enemies.

Rapidcreek , in Biden makes a historic trip to Michigan to walk the picket line to show solidarity with striking UAW -- and counter Trump

I it could go either way, but I’m betting on Biden who is great at retail politics.

STRIKINGdebate2 , in Women are less likely to receive CPR in public than men: Study
@STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world avatar

Having a one in 4 chance that you won’t get CPR If you collapse in public is a disturbing statistic.

thepianistfroggollum ,

The bystander effect is a real bitch.

chiliedogg ,

And only 19% of people who do get CPR survive long enough to go home.

*who need CPR

Lot of people get CPR when in reality they’re dehydrated, ODing, or something similar

Lot of people get CPR when in reality they’re dehydrated, ODing, or something similar

If you don’t have Narcan on hand, and they’re not breathing, rescue breathing might keep them alive until the EMTs come. If they don’t have a heartbeat, chest compressions might keep them alive until the EMTs come. CPR’s rate of success isn’t great in most circumstances, but it’s much better than nothing. No pulse, no breathing, their chance of death by the time EMTs arrive is essentially 100% without CPR.

I didn’t care about this statistic when my daughter needed cpr

While panicking I didn’t know what do do but call the emergency services, I screamed in terror into the phone, they were trained and instructed me and the wife to do what we needed to do until the ambulance came. My eyes get teary and my gut gets cold even writing this. My daughter survived and is as healthy as can be now.

This is even when my wife is an trained nurse that would have been able to handle the situation if it was not our daughter.

Nothing could have prepared us on how to handle the situation if we couldn’t call emergency services

Big port-a-potty in bed with politicians

xc2215x , in Third person charged for infant’s death from fentanyl in New York City daycare

Glad they have been charged. A drug that dangerous should be nowhere near any baby.

Number1SummerJam , in Facial recognition technology jailed a man for days. His lawsuit joins others from Black plaintiffs
@Number1SummerJam@lemmy.world avatar

The technology allows law enforcement agencies to feed images from video surveillance into software that can search government databases or social media for a possible match.

This alone should be enough to get people to stop using corporate social media

Spedwell ,

Although this is likely from crawling, which would apply to any federated social media too once it becomes large enough to be on their radar.

FlyingSquid , in The price gap between renting and buying has hit the widest point since 2000
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Our mortgage is under $1000 a month. For a three bedroom house. Granted, we don’t live in the most desirable city, but it’s in a really nice, low-crime neighborhood which is close to a bunch of stores and the mall.

I don’t even want to know what rentals cost around here.

Jwin ,

That sounds like a dream. I just bought a $550k house with $130k down and pay $3500 a month. Rates are absolutely ridiculous. At the same time, I don’t think it’s cheaper to rent at the moment.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

We got it 8 years ago, that’s why.

sylver_dragon ,

Ya, for those of us lucky enough to have been in a position to buy when the market was down, it’s great. People looking to buy a house today are fucked. We bought our home at the end of 2011. We paid $150k for a ~1250sq.ft. home, on about half an acre of land and the local school district is well rated. It’s a more rural area, with the local economy linked to several area US DoD installations. We refinanced the loan and pulled some money out to re-do the roof and windows and now sit at 3.5% APR. The end result is a monthly mortgage payment of ~$950/month.

Our house now appraises for ~$340k. While some of that movement is likely related to finishing the basement and adding 500sq.ft. of living space and an extra bathroom, most of it has just been market movement. Given today’s interest rates, payments would be north of $2000/month. While we could probably make that work, it would make saving any money difficult.

Given current conditions, I think the article is right. Rent for now and hope the housing market corrects.

TransplantedSconie , in Trump campaign backtracks claim that he bought a Glock handgun in South Carolina after it became clear that would be illegal

Can he try NOT committing any crimes for like one day? Just to see if he can do it?

TheJims OP ,

Trump will never stop committing crimes

Bipta ,

One day he will die. Crimes inspired by and in his name will never stop though. He's practically a religious figure now.

TheJims OP ,

He’s replaced Christ to evangelical Christians. He’s their messiah now. Jesus was too woke 🤣

He said he’s messiah to the Jewish people.

Maeve ,

What and get DTs? You monster.

dhork , in Biden, US officials warn of hunger for millions in a government shutdown

This will just encourage the Freedom Caucus, because finally they would be hurting the correct people.

No need to stress about that decision when you could never afford a home anyway.

thisbenzingring ,

I once thought that too but you never know, life is funny sometimes

spitfire ,

I pay a ridiculously high amount for rent. An equivalent mortgage a decade ago would have put me in a very large property. I pay much more for rent than anyone I know who owns. But I cant afford a house 🤷🏻‍♂️

LesserAbe ,

I couldn’t have bought my home without help from family for the down payment. That said, if interest rates didn’t make the monthly payments so high, there are some programs that will give you a grant for the down payment, for example ones that encourage people to move to more rural areas.

People spend money on this abomination

Holy everything messed up.

Spiderfarmer , in US FCC chair to seek reinstating net neutrality rules rescinded under Trump

Good news.

foggy , in Before Jan. 6, the FBI predicted extremists would be 'very willing to take action' over a 2020 election dispute

Good thing we did all that work to predict and nothing to prevent.

Rapidcreek , in Georgia judge orders jurors’ identities to stay secret during Trump election trial

Anything else would be insane.
