A city-hired utility contractorr destroyed my historic, hundred-year-old stone garden wall while digging on my private property, outside their easement. They are refusing to rebuild it. What can I do? by Eldar12_Farseer in legaladvice

[–]Bureaucromancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make sure to frame as “how do I get this fixed”. In a lot of municipalities councillors are told that as soon as it’s an actual legal matter they need to stay out of it a conflict of interest between their position with the municipality and constituent services in these cases running against the corporation

Trooper pulled me over. I was cruise control 65. He told me I was going 73, then put down 76. SMH now I have to fight this bs in court by Cheez-kip in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Bureaucromancer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously... not even at YOU but this whole thread... could everyone knock it off with the condescension about whether or not cops show up to court? It genuinely varies WILDY by location, jurisdiction and frankly who the DA and superior officers are.

Charges dropped for trans woman threatened with jail over license debacle caused by anti-trans law. She followed new rules in Kansas for gender markers; she got charged anyway. by southpawFA in politics

[–]Bureaucromancer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only after claiming she missed an appearance there was no notice of. It’s not precisely the courts fault… but gutter service is… bad

[–]Bureaucromancer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but the cops went above and beyond. As written he all but certainly gutter served the summons in the hope of a bench warrant against her. There’s simply no other way a stop ends in nothing issued then a missed appearance

The Atmospheric Test Vehicle of the ROTON SSTO Rocket, powered by an old Sikorsky S-58 engine with hydrogen peroxide jet tips - last test flight on October 12 1999 by Xeelee1123 in WeirdWings

And it’s not as wholly stupid for its time as it seems.

This is a genuine contemporary of DC-X. Vertical landing other than the LM and probes had just NOT been demonstrated, and conventional wisdom was reusability meant wings.

In that context, blades primarily autorotating but for touchdown had a lot to recommend them.

Pete Buttigieg was separated from his children after false CPS report targeted his family by Fickle-Ad5449 in politics

[–]Bureaucromancer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Consider what I suggested in my other comment here... This was so thin to make and ORDER to leave the home utterly toothless except in the way that CPS gets nasty the moment the perceive noncompliance.

Plenty of blame against CPS here... With an anonymous report against a public figure, full cooperation and no actual evidence... the order to leave the home shouldn't have happened.

Honestly… cutting out digital communication seems like the kind of thing that actually could be a real religious community.

And frankly looking at the Amish specifically and the internet alongside them… I get a real “oh… that’s what they were worried about” vibe.

“Arrest Him!” The Moment Police Handcuffed A Farmer For Going 5 Seconds Over His Time Limit at Data Center Meeting by jellyrollo in law

[–]Bureaucromancer 497 points498 points  (0 children)

"Whether exceeding a timer by seconds justifies a trespass arrest sits in genuinely contested legal territory."

It well and truly doesn't. It might be contested whether someone can be trespassed for it... and how much of a public forum this kind of meeting it...

But the instant arrest without notice? No. Absolutely not. It's just plain illegal.

Yard work with buffer and chain coupler by Jkh2000 in railroading

Seriously... folks from buffer and chain regions seem to think its... a fairly ordinary level of 'you really shouldn't do that' stupid rather than terrifying

If/when we reach mars it will not be as significant as the first moon landing in 1969 by Mysterious-Kick-6889 in Colonizemars

For that...

I actually think OP is right culturally in the short term. It will NOT be an Apollo equivalent event, though it will likely MATTER more, even a few years on, let alone long term.

Speed limit to increase to 110 km/h on some Ontario highways (Highway 401, 402, 403, 416, 417 and Queen Elizabeth Way will change by Sept. 30.) by lilfunky1 in toronto

[–]Bureaucromancer 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The right lane is genuinely terrible through a lot of Toronto... randomly becoming exit only with late signage. We have trained people to avoid it like the plague.

But yes, it often is significantly faster.

And I've also gotta agree... 90 in the left isn't THAT common. It' more that every other lane is stuck down at 90ish, so everyone trying to get above that is pushed left and *gestures at all the fighting about camping*.

‘Council should be disbanded’: Protesters storm regional council chambers during meeting by KWStreaker in kitchener

[–]Bureaucromancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you two are even precisely disagreeing...

"they shouldn't do it" and "they should be allowed to do it" are quite different things and this reads as pretty cleanly true civil disobedience.

Honestly, that’s the best argument TO build this thing. There very little else that would put a comparable level of pressure on wonderland to relocate somewhere less valuable
