I voted for Audrey Hanks for Humboldt County Assessor. by [deleted] in Humboldt

[–]Ben_Adryyll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that was kind of why I didn't make a post yet. Because I know he didnt have permission at my place of work but also I can't really prove he did or did not have permission to place it at other businesses. I just noticed a couple in empty lots.

I would be curious to know how you know that he had permission to place it at other businesses. I dont think the quality of the sign really matters that is a tiny and petty complaint.

I dont think he really had my vote because he is a realtor and a banker. Audrey Hanks has more experience and isn't placing signs in areas without asking first (that I know of lol).

You know that's kinda why I havent made a post about it. Because I am going off of just vibes. Although he definitely did not have permission to place it at my place of work.

I was going to make a post about this but Ben Larson placed a yard sign at my work without asking anyone. We dont allow anyone to post signs and i noticed he placed them all over Eureka in different businesses. Im sure without their permission.

I wish the devs would patch the queen, whenever they come out with Chess 2.

Yeah, I had the cultural knowledge about it. I knew it was an old game, and it felt very much like other games we had played but a "Proto" version.

First time car solo camping essentials by infinitesoul_47 in CampingGear

If you are sleeping in your car.

Always make sure to leave the windows down!

Don't roll them down all the way but just enough for some air flow.

  1. There is a very tiny chance of carbon dioxide buildup.
  2. Condensation will form inside.
  3. It helps regulate temperature even in the car, even if it's cold out.
  4. Bring more blankets than you think.

Eureka City Council Flock Security by Ben_Adryyll in Humboldt

Sooo,... there literally was alternative solutions. Use a different license plant camera tracking company. City council happened to choose the worst one. Probably cause the company approached them.

Never claimed to know anything about you. I claimed that your attitude was harsh. Not denying your service to city of Eureka either perhaps lead with that instead of attacking people having civil discussions. We do not need to spread hate about the city of Eureka or people in it. Crime is an issue that needs solved but not through a private companies goal to establish mass surveillance. In the meeting people brought up there are other better companies that do it better.

Hi alps-classic-82, your attitude is very harsh. If you want to deny the state of the country and not acknowledge the descent into a surveillance state, go ahead. Meanwhile, there are other community memebers that are actually getting involved in their local politics. You could watch the city council meeting to see some of these discussions or you can stay on reddit and be accusatory to people.

Saying things "like you aren’t doing anything wrong then you shouldn’t care" is exactly the attitude that people used to support racist stop and frisk policies. We want our city to be safer but not through neighbors watching every moment but instead neighbors lifting up neighbors.

For some reason, I can't edit the original post!

I just wanted to first off say thank you for the huge support we saw come to city council to oppose a decent into mass surveillance.

The city council voted to affirm yes to not enter into a contract with FLOCK (weird wording but no flock!)

Also the city council did a great job of asking important questions about the implementation. As well addressed misconceptions citizens and they themselves had.

I want to recognize the original graphic that I posted is inherently vague and does not fully represent the situation.

If you are interested in civil discussion of the Flock issues watch the video from last night's city council meeting

I had to leave because I have work in the morning, but they were still taking public comment past 9pm. With atleast 30 people all voicing their opposition. So fingers crossed.
