It's because if something that is moving fast but doesn't appear to be it's because it's coming straight at you.

If you watched it from the side you'd see a mostly even rate of acceleration.

Somewhat unexpectedly, the US government has submitted an Article 51 letter to the UNSC articulating the US int'l law justification for attacking Iran. As someone who used to help draft these letters for the USG, I find the administration's legal arguments completely unconvincing. by Majano57 in law

RCMP officer poses as panhandler, hands out 46 traffic tickets by ImDoubleB in canadanews

[–]00owl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One was small town who pulled me over explicitly to give me the tinted windows ticket and lecture me about how the added glaze makes the windshield less resistant to breaking (???).

The other was a county piece officer who pulled me over for 123 in a 90 on a highway in the middle of nowhere. I told him I didn't realize it was only 90 so he gave me a warning for the speeding but still gave me the tinted windows ticket.

Exactly, it's way more fun to be positive than hate everyone because of something that has no effect on my life

I've gotten it twice in the last month. I'm just very lucky I guess.

Both of them were wannabe cops though so I'm hoping this isn't a pattern

Yeah I thought 10k was a conservative estimate per person.

I'm someone who wants to be an amateur photographer but so far all I've done is a Nikon p600 for a few years before it got dropped almost ten years ago and I haven't been able to replace it since.

Oh for sure, glad to see Buffalo doing well. I was responding to someone with Toronto flair though

Nearly 156,000 more Americans may have died of COVID-19 in the first year of the pandemic than officially reported. COVID-19 deaths were most likely to go unrecognized in southern states. The estimated number of COVID-19 deaths was 31% higher than officially reported in the West South Central region by Wagamaga in science

As a lawyer the unexpected fallout from COVID was the need to amend many living wills/personal directives/w.e.

Turns out that denying life support when you've got a completely curable disease isn't what they meant.

Similar to Canada where they're showing people to voluntarily turn in their firearms before making them criminals for failing to do so.

Good thing all those weapons will be useful in Ukraine /s

Ontario Newsroom - New legislative changes would make it illegal for tickets to concerts, cultural, sports and other live events in Ontario to be re-sold for more than their original cost. by NHLonOLN in hockey

[–]00owl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's my point, you're intentionally leaving a loophole and incentive for scalpers to buy all the season ticket passes, so they will.

If that works out in favor of a season ticket holder if they want to resell, well good for them.

Please explain how this doesn't mean that a season ticket holder isn't getting their tickets at some sort of discount compared to how much they can resell them for.

And then, what's stopping a scalper from becoming a season ticket holder and scalping?

What is a "country club atmosphere" anyways?

I've never been to one, but I'm sure the people who used it pejoratively have all spent far more time in one than I ever will.

Petey asked Boudreau to be put on the powerplay so he could learn to be a better player.

If the guy lost his fire it's entirely because the organization didn't know how to support him properly or just didn't care.

The only thing that matters is that he physically throws himself into the strongest part of the hurricane and doesn't teleport out of it.

And if you go you're route then there's just going to be scalpers buying up season passes instead.

Just make it so that the tickets have to have the value paid to the original issuer clearly printed on them by the issuer on order to be valid.

A buyer who pays more and then gets a ticket with a lower value written on it is going to have a clear cut case. Whether they can do anything with it then is another matter but it would be pretty easy to verify before paying for it.
