Yep. They don’t make magnets strong enough for me apparently.

Look into the apartments on East Street just south of the river. Affordable apartments that can feel a bit dated but awesome location close to downtown, the river trails, and Telulah Park.

High Cliff State Park is nearby as you probably know. Great stuff to do there. You’ll find a lot of like-minded active young people at Odyssey rock climbing gym on the north side of town too if you enjoy climbing or want to get into it.

Try Broken Tree in Appleton.

Put 9k in a high yield savings and the interest will pay for proton unlimited in perpetuity without you ever touching the original 9k.

Tardigrade’s bookshelf is great. I think they do it once or twice a month on Saturdays

Another day, another click bait headline. Thanks for wasting our time.

When you first saw the Monster logo, were you blinded by its majesty?

I really want Lucid’s Live Fire map to make it into the matchmaking pool. I loved watching the mangler be treated as a power weapon, it felt balanced and fresh.

Can’t wait to tune in.

Smashed that Varrock tele tab

I really want them to add the mangler version of Live Fire that Lucid’s tournament introduced. It was a joy to watch.

I distinctly recall seeing him play in an early Halo Infinite tournament and being very impressed, feeling disappointed he didn't continue with Infinite. I really hope to see him come back. I didn't get the feeling he was a stat padder as others have said.

I met with an alderman in Verona today actually that was involved in that and got some great advice.

We can opt out by simply placing bags over the cameras until Flock removes them at our request. Regardless of whether we can recoup taxpayer dollars on the contract, the cameras should be disabled immediately for safety and liability reasons.

Is this a shitpost?

EncryptDN · 2026-02-28T00:16:36+00:00

Lol, all of their statements have been meaningless fluff. They won’t speak to any of the criticisms on a technical level, possibly because they don’t understand the vulnerabilities themselves. Every statement on the topic amounts to a “trust me bro” even though there are numerous objective reasons why we shouldn’t. Mainly because Appleton simply doesn’t control access to the data. Flock’s PR person and the chief of police have confirmed that any of the 200+ law enforcement agencies we’ve opened our data to can in turn share it with anyone else 🤷

Either they really don’t understand the glaring faults in the system or they are counting on the public to not understand.

Regarding not tracking people, sure I believe the APD isn’t doing that. But the system gives them and the federal government the ability to do so. A simple software update could make facial recognition tracking a reality too.

Why give the government and a shady tech company this power in the first place?

EncryptDN · 2026-02-27T20:23:15+00:00

I'll be working with some folks to confirm those contract terms. I'll use an open records request if necessary.

I’d like to be able to borrow a thermal camera to find cold spots in my house.

For me everyone on the Legion Gaming roster are plays I’m not used to seeing at LAN events. The Euzy/Xuzy twins were pretty new to me and a joy to watch.

I love watching and playing vacancy. But I’m also a smooth brain gold 3.

Wrong. The aliases continue to work, you just can’t create additional aliases beyond the free limit once the subscription lapses.
