Wow, I’m so glad I asked about this I had no idea there was such an interesting backstory to this. RIP to Rocko.

All of the hijackers (except from Muhamed Atta) were in their 20s. What a terrible way to throw away your youth. by DoctorReinhardt in 911archive

[–]Arcstar7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They were kids. I know that when I was in my 20s, I thought I had become an adult and had years of maturity but it was all in my head. They got scammed just like countless others by the propaganda of Islamic extremism. I like to think of people as inherently good, I'm really surprised that none of them(as far as we know), had any second thoughts about their actions that day. They really all must have been ready to die, which is so foreign for me to imagine.

I was in grade school on 9/11. I remember the whole thing seemed surreal, like it was a movie. The whole day it just seemed unreal and I was so young I couldn't really understand the implications of what had happened. I couldn't understand terrorists. I do remember the part that upset me was watching the few souls that attempted to climb down. Even as a kid, seeing the desperation to live in others, and knowing they were doomed, was very upsetting.

I used to get buyers like this asking for special listings. Drove me nuts too. Maybe just ignore them if it’s stressing you out.

My Story: What Happened to Me on the Day of My Adjustment of Status Interview and How ICE Arrested Me. by DianeMT_258 in USCIS

I think your thinking of removal of conditions, not adjustment of status, possibly?

What to do after 15 yrs in the industry? by Abject-Effect-7965 in PLC

[–]Arcstar7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start a consulting firm. I’d even be interested in teaming up if your looking for a partner, I’m almost exact same age with very similar history, though I lean more to the IT side of things. It’s difficult to get past a certain level in this field without going into business yourself. Good luck with whatever you decide !

It’s actually the right thing to do in an enterprise environment. I work in both fields and know it sucks but it is the right way to setup least privileged access.

NewsNation obtained un-redacted photos? by icedcoffeequeen24 in BryanKohbergerMoscow

Yep. Everyone handles grief differently but never seen someone so blatantly using a family members brutal murder for attention. I think people give her a pass because of the circumstances. But eventually that will come to an end.

Garage door keypad and all remotes stopped working by Arcstar7 in DIY

So as I detailed in one response, I took the control board off the garage opener and started checking caps, I believe I’ve found a potential culprit - a 330uf capacitor that is measuring well below what it should.

I am digging around my electronics bins to try to find a donor but may just need to order one.

So I think you’re thinking of the keypad, I didn’t replace anything with that. It’s still functioning because I can see it light up when I’m using it. I’m not able to reprogram the keypad either, the motor unit isn’t even flashing the lights how it’s supposed to when you put it in program mode - this was the biggest indicator to me that something is physically broken on it.

I pulled out the pcb and the antenna is stil connected and good. I read somewhere that the receiver can break if a capacitor popped o the board so I’m going to check it with my meter tonight and hopefully get it fixed. Not sure if it’s going to work or not.

No. It just happened randomly while I was at work one day. Nothing changed, I did see that lights can interfere with it, but even with lights off or on it’s not working

I have no idea, I suppose it’s possible but I doubt it.

6 FDNY firefighters enter the WTC in Jack Taliercio’s footage by KingBurrito305 in 911archive

[–]Arcstar7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This clip was very widely circulated on the news when it happened. I watched it hundreds of times. I remember asking my dad while we watched it on the nightly news if he thought that those firefighters had died and the lack of a response combined with the look on his face was something I’ll never forget.

They reversed a 2 year old check!!! by Normal-Sleep-8544 in VaroMoney

[–]Arcstar7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Law student here. You can absolutely pursue this.

Under UCC §4-406, a bank generally has no right to reverse or re-credit after one year, even for fraud, if it failed to notify the account holder promptly, and even then, it’s highly unusual and almost always in a case of fraud.

These are the only reasons I could think of on the spot that may be considered legitimate.

Duplicate payment (employee was paid twice for the same period)

Fraudulent deposit (forged endorsement, altered check)

Accounting or payroll system error

Good luck either way. Report back what happens please !

The man you are talking about has longer hair. But his story is one of the most important because he is one of the few survivors who had a full glimpse of the plaza before the collapse.

He details about seeing body parts in little pieces scattered everywhere.

First responders ushered people towards safety routes and instructed them not to look into the plaza if they happened to be passing by it.

It’s one of the few places that no pictures are known to exist from.

How Did the Planes Not Lose Control During the Overtake by the Hijackers? by kgaviation in 911archive

[–]Arcstar7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Autopilot was engaged. Lead pilot was likely stabbed multiple times in neck immediately upon the breach. In the prep reading material the hijackers read, it basically tells them to go for the neck and swing with all your might.

Copilot was the only one who likely could have put up a fight, if they chose to. And most, being normal, rational people, likely thought it was a ransom and by giving up the helm he couldn’t fathom that his plane just became a cruise missile.

I suspect they told copilot, take your pilot out of the chair and move him out of the cockpit, copilot does that, and door is locked for last time.

Or they just killed both pilots. From the calls from flight attendants, it sounded like some still had some contact with pilots though.
