An unremorseful felon* (Not to split hairs)

TheLadyAugust ,

I’m happy to say that I emphatically want better wages for service industry workers. IDC how much food goes up, or how many mega franchises have to close for it. Either better wages, or cause these these super franchises to close so mom and pops and open instead.

I also don’t think it’s unrealistic to expect businesses to give up a small portion of their infinite growth targets to actually cover their employees needs. Maybe a large departure from the past 50 years, but it’s absolutely something most of them can afford.

If a business genuinely can’t afford it, then I’d also be okay with my tax money going towards a business analysis for that owner to find a way to make it work. If they still can’t, then how long were they really going to be open anyway and what were they really adding to their community?

If the typical cop can’t be expected to uphold their duty to protect and serve then they don’t need to be a cop. I do not care if American courts have suddenly decided that the oath and slogan used my police for decades is not binding.

They don’t need bigger or better weapons, they need brains. They had access to cameras in the building. They knew and could have tracked the gunman using those. Set up around two corners near them, team 1 supresses to distract then team two takes out the gunman. Deploying the national guard would take too long, and not all cities have a swat team.

If “typical” cops aren’t expected to risk their safety, then I expect them to take a “typical” paycut. Actually maybe that’s what should happen. Separate real police and law enforcement. Real police get firearms and responsibilities, law enforcement can worry about tickets and fines.

Just for clarification, try what?

Hi friend! This looks like better context to me, so I’ll add it here:

Anyone who knowingly pays someone else to request, collect, or deliver absentee ballots could face a Class B felony charge—the same felony class as first-degree manslaughter in Alabama—which carries a prison sentence of up to 20 years. Anyone who is paid to request, collect, complete, prefill, obtain or deliver a voter’s absentee ballot faces a class C felony—the same felony class as looting, third-degree robbery and stalking—punishable by up to ten years in prison

It sounds like this bill prevents people from showing voters how to fill out a ballot as well as picking up sealed ballots to deliver. The sentences look to be more severe than most of Alabama’s election laws too. I’m looking forward to seeing how this is handled in court.

This game has Battle pass seasons that rotate new content. They’re all free and included with the game of course. It’s a good way to keep people coming back to keep your game alive.

I would like to point out that receiving oral sex in a parking lot is most likely illegal in w/e his circumstance was. If he was on the clock, or in uniform it could also be considered a “gratuity” in some sense. But that would be something for the courts to decide. You’re absolutely correct on everything else.

You’d have to ask 4chan, but you’ll get a green text story for an answer and that too will be fake.

Why is TikTok seen as privacy invading and bad, but Facebook is fine?

I’m not here to claim that Tiktok is completely harmless, or that it’s even a good site. I’m sure they absolutely do collect as much personal information as they can, and I’m sure they give it to the Chinese government whenever they ask. But I don’t understand how Meta and Facebook are meant to be any better? There’s...

I believe that as millennials, we have a duty to help radicalize the youth. Just a bit.

Something like arranging a protest with thousands of participants and marching through a major city like downtown San Francisco? Feels like that’s a good start.

TheLadyAugust ,

I don’t think the protest is for the Israeli government. I feel like it’s more trying to target the American government, to try to convince them to stop handing over so many weapons.

I really missed this too, until I discovered that with Sync, you can long press comments to close the chain. I don’t really use social media at all on my computer anymore. Which I guess has been better for my mental health

There’s a lot of Musk hate all over the Internet and irl, not just this site. For good reasons too, but I don’t think the issue is that he didn’t testify, it’s because he wants regulators to be punished for enforcing regulations. That kind of attitude screams “I am above the law, punish these people so no one tries to hold me accountable again.” to me.

Most hotels use reprogrammable RFID cards, not magnetic cards. Hanlon’s razor dictates negligence or incompetence be assumed first. I think it’s more likely that a hotel employee incorrectly programmed the cards, or just didn’t at all before handing them over.

people shouldn’t be out to try to change everybody’s opinions on everything all the time?

Why are you trying to change my opinion on changing other people’s opinion?

I don’t owe it to everyone reading my comments to explain my complete thoughts

Oh, i guess you won’t answer that. ¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

Your thoughts on The Orville? (lemmy.world)

When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by...

I haven’t seen a single muppet in The Orville. 3/10^ /s
