They just denied Jack Smith a similar "jump".

Bluetreefrog , in Murder victim Kelly Wilkinson repeatedly visited police in fear. They said she was ‘cop shopping’

To be fair, it sounds like this murder led to a pretty thorough external review and an acknowledgement from the QPS leadership that things had to change.

mlg , in Near-record winds over the Northeast push passenger planes to speeds over 800 mph
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

In case anyone is wondering, there are actually subsonic aircraft that can handle going mach.

The F-86 Sabre had a max speed of 687 mph at sea level which is about mach 0.9

But the Sabre could enter a dive from a higher altitude and safely reach past Mach 1 with help from gravity (or another additional source like rockets).

Comparatively, the MiG-15 had poor control authority reaching mach 0.9 and would subsequently break apart if it reached past mach 0.92.

Modern airliners obviously aren’t fast enough to reach mach under their own power, but they also can’t handle the pressure if they used something like a dive so they would also break apart like the MiG.

dangblingus , in Measles erupts in Florida school where 11% of kids are unvaccinated

Those people all gave their children MMR vaccines, which is a requirement to attend school in the United States.

Trainguyrom ,

Unless of course they can get an exemption, and antivaxers are absolutely not afraid to shop for an exemption that fits their needs.

I applied to a desk job at a hospital in 2022 and in the initial call to interview the lady said to me “now we are required by the federal government to have all employees be fully vaccinated against COVID” and before I could even react or say anything she added “but don’t worry there’s a ton of exemptions for that! Would you like to talk about the exemptions?” To which I just said “I’m already fully vaccinated, so that won’t be necessary” and her reaction seemed to be genuine shock and surprise at that answer

limelight79 ,

We take our pets to the vet for their annual checkups (honestly, caring for them better than I do myself, at least in that respect - I’m terrible about seeing the doctor other than when something is wrong). One time, the vet (one we hadn’t seen before) noted that one of the pets was due for one of his regular shots, like the rabies vaccine. She was kind of holding her breath until we responded, “Sure, go ahead and do that.” We could see that she was concerned about what our reaction to that would be.

It has gone that far…people not even vaccinating their pets.

Now they are the Nazis

Lommy241 , in South Korea jails former hero pastor for sexually abusing North Korean teenage defectors | CNN

Unfortunate. Seems like he did a lot of good and then some bad.

riego3d OP , in 3D printing: The SLA printing process
morphballganon , in Capital One to buy Discover for $35 billion in deal that combines major US credit card companies - ABC News

Small player takes over small player. Big deal.

Now, if Chase bank bought Mastercard, that would be some bullshit.

dependencyinjection ,

Mastercard merely processes transactions no? Like world pay.

dmtalon ,

Don’t they feed off every single transaction? I’d imagine they’re huge.

dependencyinjection ,

They take processing fees.

You don’t need to imagine their size, you can Google them. They have a market cap of $400B+.

You should note that it’s the retailers paying the transaction fees and not the customers.

dmtalon ,

Well my point was that it would be a large merger

dependencyinjection ,

But not a monopoly as they’re different services, albeit in the same industry.

Pratai , in Neo-Nazis Swarm Home of New England Governor

How to these embarrassments of humanity reconcile their ridiculing of the left for protesting, while simultaneously ignoring this dumb shit?

Like, how do they not see their hypocrisy? You can say they don’t care, but man… who in their right mind would want to be stuck between hating someone for doing a thing, and doing the thing you hate others for?

I honestly don’t understand this level of ignorance.

BigMacHole , in Utah House committee approves Ten Commandments bill despite constitutional concerns

Can someone PLEASE shoot up a bunch of Kindergartners so I can PRETEND to Care about the Constitution AGAIN?

Paraponera_clavata , in Average credit card balances jump 10% to a record $6,360, and more consumers fall behind on payments

Anyone know how they calculate it? Average of all credit card holders? All US households? Average of all those behind on payments?

ShepherdPie ,

$1.13T/$6,360 equals roughly 177 million people. There are 259 million adults in the US, so it must be by card holders.
