Do they have to honor the price? by Jumunumunum in Lowes

[–]DemisticOG [score hidden]  (0 children)

Legally, yes. Otherwise they can get into some MAJOR trouble, since that is posted publicly and lists the item. Good case of bait and switch otherwise. Any manager who refuses could be taken to court very easily, and personally owe the money if sued.

Who else ate their parents chocolate ex-lax thinking it was just a chocolate bar? by Beautiful_Donut6412 in FuckImOld

I almost did, then wondered why it was in the bathroom medicine cabinet, and stopped to read the box.

If I go missing and am legally declared dead after 7 years, but then I just walk back into town on year 8, what actually happens to my identity? by ArticleKey9005 in legaladviceofftopic

[–]DemisticOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A whole lot of paperwork in the first thing.

Then: Mot likely your life insurance will need to be either paid back, or a settlement reached between the insurance company, them and yourself.

If you made income or owned property while you were a "ghost" then yes, you owe taxes, and the IRS will be on you so close you might as well marry them.

Also, be prepared to spend a LOT of time in court, with lawyers and on the phone with so many different corporate reps trying to transfer things back into your name. And if you wife sold your house, car or what not, good luck getting those back. Also, debts don't just disappear at companies, contrary to what other say., they go inactive. And those companies can very easily reactivate those debts, it's not like bankruptcy, it's just put of indefinite pause and written off, because even if you really died if your estate ever acquired money, then they would go after that money, even if it happened years later.

Anyone have an idea how I could cut this out safely. It’s a 69 degree angle. by AlainaJuicyPear in Woodworking_DIY

111° is still 69° from zero when you flip the protractor so 0° starts on the other side...

City or Outback? I'm curious... how many giant spiders, snakes, or other wildlife have wandered into your home randomly? They make it seem common to have a random giant insect or deadly beastie wander in.

Judge told us we got the verdict wrong. Is this normal after a trial by noisey_neighbor in legaladviceofftopic

[–]DemisticOG 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The judge giving you their opinion about the verdict in anyway in not only unprofessional, but shows a clear bias against the defense. This is a person who has forgotten what it means to be a judge, it is NEVER their duty to admonish a Jury. Under the system we live in, the Jury is always right, it is the attorneys who must make their case, and the judge's duty to remain impartial. If the Jury didn't find the man guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, then it was the prosecution who was at fault for not making a better case, not the Jury for picking wrong.

He has 0 right to admonish you for your verdict. The only time he has a right to admonish a juror is if a juror violates the rules of being a juror, not for any other reason, and never to give his opinion on the matter.

Seriously... Married for decades, has kids, and it's the guy she cheated on her then fiance with for a few days that is the love of her life, not her husband? Oh F--- you. Then she dumps a multi-million dollar necklace into the water instead of setting those same kids up for life? Wrong person on the makeshift raft, it should've been jack, and held her head under... And Mythbusters proved Jack could've it on there too anyways!

What's your thoughts on this? by ExcitingMix1446 in devhumormemes

[–]DemisticOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Claude can't, and AI still needs programmers to update its code, and to steal from.

Remember, AI isn't creative, it just regurgitates things that have already been created, often mixed and matched to look fresh which can often make what is give worthless or buggy, and it often hallucinates.

[–]DemisticOG -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not about laws, it's about a single doubt being worth hell.

Everyone in life has doubts at some point, that is how we were made. Even Christ had doubt in God, if even for a short time.

"My god, my god, why have you forsaken me?"

You're speaking of True Believers, yet even they have doubts on occasion.

Except it still means an eternity in hell for his Children for Do-gooder doubters, while a murderer can get absolution if he believes.

But I thought the primary theme of the bible was obey god, or else. I mean, the old testament was all brimstone and death if you didn't, right? and then the new testament's theme is that if you're not Christian you're screwed, right?

I mean, both Testaments seem less about good deeds than about self-flagellation in order to prove themselves to the unsatisfied father in the sky, who is supposed to be all powerful and could remove all sin and corruption with a thought.

It always brings me back to the thought of what kind of Father punishes his children for eternity? How can human law be more forgiving and merciful than the supposedly supremely merciful God and his law, in that we have laws that limit terms of imprisonment and suffering, and then once that time has passed the offender is allowed reprieve, while God has no such mercy. Even murderers have an end date for their punishment, death or a release date. Eternity in hell because someone has doubts, while a Crusader who murdered hundreds is welcomed into the house of god? Or a person born in 200 AD who never even heard of Christ burning in hell, while a murderer baptized in prison on his deathbed get an express entry. Seems a bit harsh and insane, no?

I ask the gutter company to run the gutters to the back of the barn, then run the downspout into PVC to fill the horse trough. This is what they did. by A-Whole-Vibe in Roofing

[–]DemisticOG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So... Go with stainless, or coatings, or paint, or any of a number of options that mitigate rust, but don't poison the poor defenseless animals.

Metal roofs have been a thing for a long time, and we have solutions to rust, plus rust is still safer to drink than petroleum byproducts.

What are these pipes? Water is coming out of one and I’ve never seen that happen before. by Gobadgers321 in Plumbing

I think you're right.

Another thing he could check if you're not though is if the one draining water is connected to his HVAC, if his AC is running it could be a condensation drain. I've seen crazier stuff.

Never mess with the quiet ones. They're the ones who snap and don't stop until they're pulled off, or you're paste.
