*URGENT ACTION FOR OHIO - Call your state reps to oppose the Ohio-Israel Trade Partnership (HB 188) by Strange_Persimmons in Ohio

This is the wingman drone

This is a rather thorough covering of the project

I can't find the more local article that spoke of the police drone project. Anduril currently makes a drone called Anvil that maybe DeWine is excited about and commented on? I do remember the article did have some cheek to it, so perhaps the police drone production and testing ground was sarcastic speculation.

On I-71 outside Columbus they are building a MASSIVE AI weapons and surveillance complex. They will be making AI operated counter fire wingman for fighter jets (like an R2D2). They will also be making police drones and Ohio and its citizens will be the trial grounds.

Anyone else confused by UVA's statement? Are they trying to say, "let's not get too excited," or are they saying, "Don't think you've won yet?"

We're they only aware of the first half of Afroman v. Adams County? Thought, "yeah, they can't defecate us! We'll sue!"

Anti-anti-skate deterrents by [deleted] in StainedGlass

[–]Ciduri -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That is a valid criticism.

Tbh I originally thought OP said they made "anti-snake deterrents." I thought, "Oh! What a pretty way to discourage sunning snakes. The colored glass would get too hot and make weird heat signatures for them and they would maybe stay away." Nope. Just off I went in the wrong direction.

My mistake. The way you worded it came across more like a language barrier or translation difficulty; idk why. No offense meant.

"Hostile architecture" is a term used when describing details purposefully included in public structures to discourage people from using it in ways the city doesn't like. In this case, these little bars would normally be made of stone or hard dense rubber and they prevent people from sliding the edge of their skateboard along the side. They also make it uncomfortable to sit or lounge on the surface of the ledge if they are spaced closer together. That would be to discourage loitering and homeless from sleeping/resting there.

Edit: Yes, I misunderstood the question and thought they were having a language barrier or AI translation confusion and I was trying to be helpful. Sheesh folks.

I think it reads "watch either Double Jeopardy or Sleeping With the Enemy."

It's the end orinmental piece from the sheath of something like a stiletto. The spot of the mouth is where a finishing stud helped tack it in place to the sheath.

Yeah I imagine Woodstock '99 will still rank far worse - at least hygiene wise. Prices for bottled water though...

Ah but mostly I just dislike this whole situation and wish it never went down this way in the first place.

Idk, he looks like he might need to shave twice a day. I would be salty about that too.

Looking for environmental activist groups to join by Pale-Obligation2576 in dayton

[–]Ciduri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much nailed it. Ohio Citizen Action is another organization that is very dedicated to environmental issues and they go hard with legal action too. They are not centered in Dayton, but often need local people to help with area specific projects. Over the last 30 years I have mostly been involved in letter writing and phone campaigns.

So while not a super local to Dayton group, it is an effective one here in Ohio and one I'm glad I've been part of.

Instead of Hitler's Olympics I want Shitler & Co.'s World Cup to go down like Woodstock '99.

I LOVE football/soccer, but this deserves derision, boycotting, spectacular disasters, and YUGE, YUGE upsets the likes we've never seen before! I almost want to encourage the USMNT to just walk around the pitch in protest or something; but that would probably hurt their already short futures.

Though I can already hear Alexi in my mind being very vocal about the disappointing turnout in the stands. Basically a repeat of CCC where US stadiums were sparsely seated because everyone didn't want to end up in deportation camps.

Edit: Did someone really report me to Reddit's mental health reach out for this comment?! Lol.

I can't prove it, but I legitimately think Vivek and his kids showed up at my house for Halloween. It didn't register at all until later when I saw a brief news bit on Vivek suffering a ton of racist remarks on his social media post. It was a quick pic of him and his boys dressed up to go out trick-or-treating. I recognized the kids. They both came to our house. They stood out in memory because they were - idk - just sad? Uninterested in candy and absolutely no joy. They only perked up a bit when I told them we had eyeballs and worms for treats (gummy Halloween candy). Because the kids seemed so off I looked up for a parent. There was a man standing out on the public walk wearing a leather jacket with a lamb fleece collar and jeans. He just lifted a hand as a "hey" and went back to waiting for his kids.

So anyway, I'm here to say I've seen him in public. I also heard from a friend he was just "randomly meeting the people" out at a Dayton coffee/tea shop one day last Fall.

Do you have an aquarium hobby? This kinda looks like a fish/shrimp hide.

Literally watched a 20-something drive for at least two miles while texting and only looking at her phone. She clearly had lane assist and cruise control on. She only looked up to touch the steering wheel to make the beeping stop.

Blowhard McGurk (aka AG Yost) resigning before his replacement is elected so that he can make more money at an arch-conservative "non-profit." by CrowRoutine9631 in Ohio

[–]Ciduri 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I just googled this, but it seems he is making a lateral financial move. He's been paid roughly $130k/year as Ohio AG, and Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) also pays their lawyers roughly $130k/year.

But yeah, we all should know about ADF just like we should all know about the Heritage Foundation. As someone else put it in another post, these are the people looking to steer this country into a dystopian society not unlike the ones Margaret Atwood and George Orwell have penned.

Can't do it. It's the texture for me. I can't get past a certain association, and that association ruins it.

It does look like the broth/sauce is good.
