What if the state refused to tell a kids parents that they were struggling with depression, and then the kid self harms, and the parents weren’t given the opportunity to provide the support network necessary to get them the help they need.
Gee, what if those same parents spent time with their own children so that they wouldn’t be so ignorant of them? No, better sue some teachers instead.
I’d probably switch my party designation if we didn’t have closed primaries here in Oregon. They’ve made it so you have to kiss the ring in order to participate in democracy.
IANAL but states are often given sovereign immunity in court, so I would guess the lawsuit wouldn’t get very far unless they allow you to sue them in the first place
I recently saw a mobile mechanic who uses an old ambulance as his repair rig with “EMS” (I’m assuming Emergency Mechanic Service) on the side. I thought it was really creative and a great rig to store and haul tools and equipment.
Agreed. I think there are tons of businesses people have never heard of because they serve a specific niche and aren’t public facing or household names. I don’t think its easy to launch a successful business but it wasn’t easy in the past either amd we don’t remember all the companies that didn’t make it.
Regarding ‘honesty,’ that probably depends on the market and what your competitors are willing to do. Its probably a lot easier to run an honest local restaurant than some international finance firm. You’ll probably need to sacrifice your integrity to reach those higher echelons because everyone else there was already willing to do the same.
“Another passenger had an administrative warrant and was the target,” Joseph Guzman, a spokesperson for Garcia, told Houston Public Media.
Except they’ve already claimed that they let all of the passengers go.
I didnt know they had cameras now, but they’ve made smart home IoT devices like switches and sensors for years now.
Where’s the fuel coming from though? I wouldn’t be surprised to find that it’s from Venezuela and he’s literally stealing it via the US government to sell himself.
All of OPs talk about being “self absorbed” and “not caring about how they affect others” really sounds like projection to me.
the AI Safety Measures Act creates a framework that will require the “developers of the largest advanced AI systems” (read: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) to provide public disclosures as to their safety practices, report any significant safety incidents, and remain in line with a set of compliance processes. It also creates a channel for whistleblowers working inside AI labs to safely and securely relay any safety concerns they might have without fear of repercussions.
Whoa this sounds pretty serious. It asks these companies to self report safety incidents and creates a “channel” for whistleblowers.
That’s some serious hammer dropping. 🙄
OpenAI and Anthropic both endorsed the bill as it moved through the legislature
Of course they did because this is just the Democratic version of what Republicans do with regulatory capture. They just like to dress their version up with a facade of “consumer protections” when the law doesn’t actually protect anyone or improve anything.
Yeah I would get them out immediately and not be nice about it to scare them from doing it again.
Just a heads up that laundry stripping will not remove antiperspirant stains. I’m going through this with my white undershirts and after doing a stripping treatment the shirts came out pristine except for the waxy buildup on the pits.
“We will not allow our sacred monuments to be roped off or diminished or in any way impacted by disgruntled individuals who think that they and not the rest of the nation have the right to decide what should happen,” Pirro said. “These landmarks and monuments belong to all of us, and they must be protected for generations to come.”
What an insidious statement about the victim here. She’s literally describing Trump’s actions.
He also said that people who oppose them are “terrorists” in another interview.
Try McMaster-Carr. They have everything and everything has all dimensions labeled and filterable
Just my educated guesses as a layman, but I agree with what others are saying in that a center channel would lead to more flooding in the streets. Side drains won’t flood streets or homes (unless its an actual flood) as both are elevated above said drains. Side drains also give 2x the holding capacity which further helps reduce water pooling on the road.
Additionally, having it in the center of the road means any maintenance done on said drains is going to block both lanes of travel, and even if it doesnt, would put workers in a very dangerous working position.
The case exists because Trump tried pushing a blatantly unconstitutional rule through.
And to top it off, he sent those emails out on Christmas morning instead of spending time with his 40 children.
I just saw a video from a local news channel about a different patch of land in Georgia where Georgia Power was given an easement across a bunch of people’s land, essentially cutting these people’s property in half, then they clear cut the forest at the back of their properties and installed some giant transmission line towers also to power datacenters. One young couple interviewed had just bought their property and were planning on using the land to grow food but now they can’t and they also can’t sell because only half their property is usable despite them having paid for the entire plot.
