Beaver , in LA City Council Considers Funding Former IDF Soldiers to Patrol Its Streets

Bro why them specifically aren’t the local cops bad enough?

Cops are, ostensibly public security guards. their jobs aren’t to protect private property. That’s what private security guards are for. (aka contract security).

There are times where the police will allow you to hire an off-duty cop to come and do cop-things on your property as a way to earn some extra funds. (the cops get overtime pay, the department gets a cut.) It includes things like traffic direction and sitting in their cars watching drunks come out of bars (hoping that the drunks notice and don’t start shit. works half the time, if we’re being honest.)

Also cops make extremely shitty security guards. (experience says that cops tend to pick fights instead of using soft skills.). I suspect these guys are going to be much worse… and I hadn’t thought that was possible.

jonne , in Man who escaped Oregon prison 30 years ago was found in Georgia with a stolen identity, authorities say

Maybe a central database of death certificates that can be compared with people currently alive? I still don’t get how you can just use a dead person’s identity in the US without anyone figuring it out.

jxk , in Inside Ziklag, the Secret Organization of Wealthy Christians Trying to Sway the Election and Change the Country

Which country?

UFODivebomb , in 'We're close to the end': Biden world braces for the possibility that the president steps aside

It’s a trap so the GQP can force ballot shenanigans

Snapz , in 'We're close to the end': Biden world braces for the possibility that the president steps aside

Once again, it offered a sharp contrast with former President Donald Trump, who, even after his brush with death on Saturday, will appear at a raucous coronation at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Thursday night.

Lick boots harder, you complicit oligarch fucks.

Welcome to Amazon, I love you.

Welcome to Amazon, I love you.

Welcome to Amazon, I love you.

Shou , in Swimsuit wars heat up in an Olympic year

Gotta love how they usually take more suggestive pictures of female athletes. This time the suits make the women flat as a surfboard, and the men less so lol.

psycho_driver , in Bob Newhart, legendary comedian, dead at 94

Damn, I was just thinking about his show from the 80s (this is my brother Daryl, this is my other brother Daryl) less than a week ago. It was the first time I had thought about him or that show in decades and it was totally random. Everybody stay clear of my brain waves.

Etterra , in After recent state law change, the only way to appeal an eviction in Tennessee is pay an entire year's rent upfront

JFC that is dystopian AF.

LouNeko , in President Biden tested positive for COVID-19.

I don’t know whats more entertaining, The Boys finale or the actual election.

corsicanguppy , in 65% of Democratic Voters Want Biden to Step Aside: Poll.

65% of dem voters don’t know that trick was a landslide loss every single time.

Beaver , in Windows PCs crashing worldwide due to CrowdStrike issue
@Beaver@lemmy.ca avatar

This why windows 11 needing an online account to sign up is a bad idea

Buffalox ,

Yep, the only real functions of that is copy protection, and Microsoft gathering data.

Turns out this is a CrowdStrike issue though, so unrelated in this case.

lmaydev ,

It’s a third party piece of software causing the issues though.

Samvega , in Jaahnavi Kandula: US police officer who joked about woman's death fired

was recorded saying that the Indian student’s life had “limited value”

When people like this realise their assessment of their own value is boosted solely due to self-serving bias, how will they react? By getting drunk and hurting someone?

RamblingPanda ,

He’ll have enough time to find out now.

jaschen , in Jaahnavi Kandula: US police officer who joked about woman's death fired

Great, now he will just work for the Bellevue police department now

PanArab , in Illinois sheriff's deputy charged with murder in fatal shooting of woman who called 911

I somehow just knew she was going to be black. For many minorities fascism is already here.
