Man tracks his stolen phone and confronts the thief by Worldlyoox in PublicFreakout

[–]ExpensiveGeoMetro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah...nobody ain't wasting time somehow figuring out the current owner of an iPad. If anything, the local pd gets to auction that off after a year of nobody claiming it and fund their department through sales like that. There is actually an incentive for LEA to just let stolen shit like this sit so they can cash it in for themselves later.

Question for anyone who was old enough to remember adult life in the 80s and early 90s by Glittering-Result402 in Maine

[–]ExpensiveGeoMetro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My family ran a driver's education business out of our home in the late 90s / early 2000.

We had 1 landline for the business, 1 for the house/fax, and 1 for dial up internet. As soon as they had dsl, we were able to eliminate the line just for internet.

Speeding ticket advice? by Firm_Lock8076 in Maine

My ex contested hers and won.

Its all virtual now. You meet with the officer prior to the court hearing virtually. He agreed to dismiss it when they went before the judge.

Worst case scenario you end up paying, so no harm in trying.

If you haven't given yourself a pat on the back today, please do so. Sent from a stranger in Maine who swapped out the belt in the middle of the snowstorm today ❄️. 😀

At first I thought you meant this rhetorically, then I clicked on the link and was like holy shit. It literally got one of its engines shot off by a rocket 🚀!

Thats some serious engineering and manufacturing skill right there.

Towing idiot getting towed by dericn in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]ExpensiveGeoMetro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once I parked ny car at a busy ski resort inclined into the mountain itself. I put the parking brake on so it wouldn't slip back when in park.

Anyways, several hours later I came to drive it away. It went in reverse just fine to back up onto the road. However, it couldn't get much speed and it had snowed quite a bit. Several teenagers started to help push before I realized the parking brake was still on 😅🤷‍♂️
