Who gave them an incorrect warrant? What was it for? What's the point of listing names on a warrant if you ignore them? Why is every department claiming they weren't involved? Why were they collecting evidence from people not involved or listed on the warrant?
What exactly are any of us supposed to do if this happens?
I do everything myself, and it's led to being able to handyman if I need some cash. Contractor pricing is insane for something that's never as difficult as it seems. Hell last night I installed a side door on my garage because I had an extra door I ripped out of the house last year. It took three boards, a nailgun, a shim, and an hour.
The job you listed? A wrench, Teflon tape, some valves, putty, and a diamond hole saw. So like 70$ assuming you don't already have those things.
Most maintenance, installs, or upgrades are the same way, and the next time you do it, you already have the tools. Get a rolling toolbox, a belt, a basic battery tool set, and pick up all the specialty tools as you need them, and you're a handyman.
Only on expensives items or antiques. I don't like it, but it seems to be expected on marketplace. I'm so used to people haggling I post everything 25% higher than the amount I actually want or expect.
That being said, I always think it's funny when someone posts obo on their item. If the price is 700 obo, why the hell would I offer you 700?
Amother organism or person needs to be predictable to be trusted.someone or something acting in an unpredictable manner means it may suddenly decide you're a threat. We evolved in a world before science and medicine, where any injury could mean death. Even the most unstoppable animals, bears, elephants, moose, will bluff charge a threat rather than immediately attack, because fighting risks injury, regardless of how unbalanced the fight is. I can't win a fight against any of those animals, but I can bite it while it's killing me. A full thickness bite wound is all but guaranteed to cause an infection, which may kill or disable.
Humans are also social creatures, and we run on cultural norms that make it easier to trust that the person next to you in a restaurant won't suddenly stab you, even though he is holding a knife.
A major cultural difference can make others seem dangerous in a primal way. We know through interaction that other cultures are not more dangerous, but that primal unease of being surrounded by people from a different tribe is still in there somewhere.
In my opinion, this is why racism is so hard to root out. A lot of it is taught by others, but it's not a negligible amount tied to fear of anything different.
Well the flanged mace is objectively the best one if we're going to ignore the Lucerne.
The infantilization worked, and certainly not just on the people who grew up with it. My profession has me dealing with patients from all walks of life, and the majority of people I work with everyday are painfully dumb. Whether they're 18 or 80, I'm impressed that half of the people I meet managed to make it so far in life without falling out of their car.
They fall for every ad, they believe clickbait articles on facebook, they can't figure out how to check in on a tablet, with directions on the screen, that works identically to the phone they live through. They don't know anything going on in the world, or even the town around them, but they certainly know that new Burger at McDonalds, and they're the only ones that really KNOW what's going on with the country's politics. They know seven tiktok dances, but can't name the continents. They take 15 medications, can't name them, and don't even know what they're for, just that the doctor said they need them. They know the backstory of every minor character in every marvel movie, but couldn't make it through a novel if their life depended on it.
I regularly see people with uncontrolled diabetes that can't even tell me which type they have.
It worked. We're all consumers too dumb to know what we're consuming or why we wanted it in the first place .
At some point a few years back I decided that if something can be done by regular people, I can learn how to do it. Every individual skill starts with several mistakes that would be obvious to a professional, but I'm not one, or at least wasn't. We have an opportunity that no one in history had, though. We have the ability to learn anything from real masters with a simple search. Forums and YouTube have endless information from every kind of craftsman, mechanic, programmer, designer, and engineer willing to give anyone the great advantage of being able to skip the majority of dumb mistakes we would all make. In the last two years I've learned welding, tiling, server programming, flooring, building code, gun making, cabinet building, and anything else that arose and needed done. I just finish milling a pile of rough boards into lumber before checking Lemmy.
You have to start somewhere, and there will always be mistakes, but if the car could end up being an ongoing problem, you just found a reason to learn mechanics.
Click bait title aside, I legit wouldn't have thought that was illegal. Certainly not arrested and in jail illegal.
There are beaches where bones wash ashore regularly, from old shipwrecks, battles, failed immigrations, or drug runners, and nobody cares.
Most Americans could probably use metric easily if they just remember a meter is about 180 5.56 NATO rounds wide. A kilometer is 111,111 9mm rounds.
Easy.
I really feel like freedom units should be hotdogs per second.
It's cheating to use footlongs, btw.
Unfortunately, I don't live in the free world, I live in the "freedom" world. I have to convert km/h to as hell and km/s to as fuck.
Hey redhats, how's that first amendment holding up?
