Typically, yes. They issue citations and increasing levels of fines for each violation, and they disconnect your water if you don’t respond or pay in a timely manner. How quickly they respond to reports and how often they issue citations varies by city. Some cities even employ patrol units to enforce violations during severe drought conditions. Some cities aren’t giving out warnings at all anymore but going straight to citations/fines.
“Yes it is - Russia peacefully took the land back in 2014 and now Ukraine and NATO are the bloodythirsty aggressors who have started a war there” - comments on lemmygrad, probably.
Don't worry, only jobs that aren't soul crushing will be automated. How else will people build their little wannabe corporate fiefdoms lording over the miserable peasants?
I thought I’d never say this, but America is looking really like a third-world country lately. Of course that’s too much of a generalization, but shit like this, and school shootings, and etc etc…makes you really wondering if you get what I mean.
I get we have problems, but holy shit. Stop saying this.
We are not a third world country, and someone even comparing us to one just shows they’ve never been to a 3rd world country, outside of maybe an enclosed resort.
The document noted that Meyer had previously undergone mental health treatment and has been diagnosed with […] mental health conditions. […]
Oh; so he was not only disabled but…
Soon after he turned 18 in November, Meyer began communicating online with someone he thought was an Islamic State facilitator but was actually a paid FBI informant, the document said. The following month, that person introduced Meyer to another informant who claimed to be an Islamic State travel facilitator, who met with Meyer three times to talk about his plan to pay and prepare for traveling to join the Islamic State.
Where does it say he is disabled? I have adhd and bipolar, I’m not disabled, and it never occurred to me to join ISIS. My husband is autistic, and he never wanted to join a terrorist organization.
Edit: He said he’d build a fertilizer bomb in the US if he couldn’t go to the Middle East. Not defensible, IMO.
Asking in case I’m wrong: isn’t it only entrapment if the defendant wouldn’t have pursued the illegal action without the law enforcement playing a part? We can’t be sure from the details given, but by my understanding this would not qualify for entrapment if the accused sought out a contact with the Islamic State, but was funneled to the FBI agent instead, and they already expressed intent to join.
The US has 1.2M incarcerated people. Around 6000 prisoners die in prison every year which gives prisoners a substantially lower mortality rate that the overall population.
Except that’s not why this is a crime. You can do that all day everyday. This is a crime because of his intent to fight for what’s in effect a hostile foreign terrorist organization.
Why don’t we just let him go and not let him back (or arrest him when he gets back if he is a US citizen)? If he wants to get killed in Iraq why are we stopping him?
We’ll say it again, for the people in the back: it doesn’t matter whether you believe in potentially lethal threats or not.
They’ll still kill you. And if you ignore them and pretend they don’t exist, they’ll usually kill you much, much faster than if you were actively trying to mitigate them.
These same morons chose to mass die of Covid. They will again in the next pandemic. And they will of climate change. Unless we organize and start electing people who pass climate laws pretty quickly.
Listen, and understand. Those climate change denying NPCs are out there. They can’t be bargained with. They can’t be reasoned with. They don’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And they will absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.
Water restrictions vary by city, but landscape irrigation is indeed restricted. Usually they go up to stage 4, which typically limits to watering once a week or once every 2 weeks.
Interestingly, they include hand watering in the restrictions. My city has designated days and times you are allowed to water, but hand watering is allowed at any time.
Agreed. It’s completely stupid. I’d much rather stay waiting at the gate lounge over sitting on the plane in a queue. I don’t care if it’s “less efficient,” the lounge is at least more comfortable than the stifling conditions of economy class on modern planes.
As a side note, there were babies on that plane in those temperatures for that long!? You literally go to jail for leaving babies in a car in the summer because at those temps for too long will legit kill babies. No wonder all of the babies were screaming on that plane.
I think the problem is about slot management and the way they work.
In ATC, at least in Europe but FAA is probably more or less the same, your flight can get delayed for whatever reason (meteo, atc capacity, airport etc…).
In case of a delay you get a SAM, slot allocation message with a new EOBT (estimated off block time). You can shorten this waiting time by various means, you will get an SRM (slot revision) and in order to be certain that you won’t miss this slot (or get a new worst one) you have to send a ready message.
Ready means door closed, ready for pushback. And that’s the problem here, that’s how you get stuck in an airplane on the ground, cause you’re « ready ».
That sucks, but a crew will generally not board a plane if they have a huge non negociable slot. But if they think the slot could improve so they can stick to their schedule, you’ll probably end up waiting in a shitty overcrowded cabin.
And sometimes it’s the airport doing shit like pre boarding a plane so they can pack passengers for another flight at the gate.
Wow, the more I write about how the industry work, the more I hate it. Time to change career.
