Drupal…damn it’s been years since someone mentioned Drupal. I remember it being the next big thing…

That was such a weird story! On one hand, he has been a big supporter of the football program at the school and the scoreboard didn’t seem totally unreasonable. But as a former university librarian, the salary is generally under $60k for non-mangers, so saving that $1 million was an amazing feat of savings and the scoreboard seemed like a weird choice by the school.

Your forgot that plastic manufacturing knew it wasn’t recycled or recyclable.

No, law enforcement told schools that what happened on their property was their problem and that local law enforcement didn’t have time to deal with their problems. It should be very clear that cops retreated from our campuses, schools didn’t shut them out. Colleges and Universities would love for local law enforcement to come patrol the campus and handle assaults and all the rest but literally the cops told us it was too much trouble.

Many modern cars only check for the fob on startup, so you can drive away without the fob but as soon as you turn the car off, you are stuck.

I found this out the hard way by dropping my partner and his keys off at a Dr office and then driving away.

IDK why it doesn’t check for fob before engaging Drive, as would seem sensible.

Chat with Satan, argue with Botox Matt, kick Mitch McConnell’s seat all flight.

You mean to tell me that it’s too much trouble for them to keep track of their own leadership and bishops to remember which have been accused of misbehavior and sexual abuse, but they totally have the time and capacity to keep track of which church members had a sex change and then group them with the empty file of sex abusers to was too troublesome to keep?

I did this for a business number many years ago and it worked fine.

The cops would prosecute the crime they gave the external evidence for. In this case the shooting of the victim, because that came to their attention as a crime. Since they wouldn’t have interacted with the victim except that he got shot, the fact he had a gun on him can’t be used as evidence against him. Just like if they search your car for guns, they can’t seize your bank statements from the glovebox and use them as evidence for financial crimes.

How about disallowing evidence gathered about the victim of the crime from being used to prosecute them? Like we disallow evidence gathered without a proper warrant, theoretically.

Search and Rescue dogs are generally owned and trained by specialized dog trainers, not the cops. The scent-tracking skills for following people are differently trained from drug and explosives detecting dogs Basically a search dog needs to walk towards and follow what they smell, and a detecting dog needs to sit down when they catch a smell so they have different training methods.

Source; Hung out with Search and Rescue dog trainers and listened to them carefully not directly talk shit about the police dogs.

As a child in the US I was taught “The Principal is you ‘pal’.” which is not true but helpful when spelling it. Like “dessert” has more ‘s’ than “desert” because it’s something you want more of.

The American attitude that children are a lifelong punishment for having sex, and no one should ever expend any effort or a cent of money on a child they didn’t personally fuck into existence?

Their “baby boom” that defined the American generation called “boomers” was different in Australia and didn’t peak until much later, in the late 1960s I believe.

This is Australia, not the US. I don’t think they have “boomers”

Logitech’s desire to put AI in my IO devices is exactly why I am moving to a different manufacturer. I want solid hardware, not hardware as a service. HP also is trying this with printers and it’s total bullshit.

If I am paying a monthly fee, I’d better not also have to buy garbage hardware. That better be provided for free and replaced when it inevitably fails.

“Expatriate” is from the Latin “expatriatus” and meaning to leave the country of one’s origins or father specifically. It started in the 18th century as a word for exile, especially self-imposed exile; but now represents all those living in a country other than that of their birth.

This is why “they are the biggest” isn’t a good reason to pick a vendor. If all these companies had been using different providers or even different OS, it wouldn’t have hit so many systems simultaneously. This is a result of too much consolidation at all levels and one issue with the Microsoft OS monopoly.
