roguetrick , (edited ) in Prosecutors plan to charge former Kansas police chief over his conduct following newspaper raid

That’s really funny. He’s getting nailed not for his fascist ass good ole boy raid but for not complying with the investigation. I hope he cuts a deal and gets the county councilors nailed in conspiracy charges and blows the whole fucking thing wide open.

I don’t have the desire to look up the filing on court listener, but Myer’s civil case against Cody criticizes him for turning off his body cam when discussing the case over the phone with the restaurant owner but not when using the bathroom. And then includes a picture of him in the pisser, lol.

Edit: I misremembered the specifics. It was while he was handling stuff about himself. Still funny.

fpslem , in One and done: Michael Phelps calls for a lifetime ban for anyone who's caught doping

While we’re over-hauling doping punishments, we have to confront the deeply broken doping testing system and widespread contaminations of many foods and medications. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and its country-level entities (UKADA, USADA, etc.) don’t like to talk about how laughably bad their systems are, and how often the pop false positives. It wasn’t as well known until cyclist Lizzy Banks challenged a false positive last year and spent €40,000 in legal fees and testing fees to get a “no fault or negligence” ruling. And that wouldn’t have been possible at all if Banks didn’t have a medical background (she went pro just before finishing a medical degree) and was able to read the faulty reports herself and challenge the claims of UKADA. Thanks to her, we now know that WAY more common foods and over-the-counter medications have contaminations with banned substances, which produces positive results with trace-amounts of banned substances.

I’m all for cracking down on dopers and cheaters, so long as we fix the system so it doesn’t create false-positives.

commandar ,

The entire system is deeply corrupt beyond false positives.

We know for a fact that Russia was systematically cheating testing and the grand sum of the punishment they faced for it was having to compete as “Olympic Athletes from Russia” for two years.

As long as there is an appeals process. And it seems there was.

Last year???

Like, just one year ago and not 5?

Covid is still messing with my sense of elapsed time.

buzz86us , in Newsmax pundit accuses Kamala Harris of 'doing blackface' to win presidency

Can the Republicans dig themselves any deeper… There was some clown on Facebook that went over ancestry… Like how long until you hit fascism?

solsangraal , in Attention, jittery investors: Stop panicking … this is what a soft landing should look like.

they’ve been saying “there’s a recession right around the corner!!!” for how many years now?

my prediction: when a recession finally does happen, they’ll say “seeeeeeeee toldja!!!”

minibyte ,

On the blackjack table there’s usually a person, we’ll refer to them as the Mystic. The Mystic tries to call every next card coming out of the shoe before they see it. The Mystic is usually wrong and it’s hilarious. When the Mystic is finally and inevitably right (they’re bound to get it right once or twice) Mystic is absolutely insufferable.

I just switched to duckduckgo. Better results, not inundated with ads. Search for software on Google and the first 3-5 results, at least, are sponsored scam links.

AShadyRaven ,

i must be doing something wrong because to me, duckduckgo doesnt even work as well as AskJeeves did in 2001

tiredofsametab ,

Better results

That's not generally my experience. I still try DDG first, but probably 20-25% of the time, I have to switch back to Google. Oddly, not for the stuff in Japanese or related to Japan, but more tech and other such.

This is surprising IMO, the trend the past almost 3 decades (since the Clinton administration) has been to give the giants a free pass on almost everything. Bush ended the case against Microsoft, and since then there has been zero big case victories for competition and consumers that I can remember.

Maybe pressure from Europe helped, we’ve seen a lot of high profile rulings from EU, so maybe it’s “get your shit together, or we will do it for you” kind of situation?
