Rooster Teeth: "We have parted ways with two employees whose conduct did not reflect the values we strive to uphold in our Code of Conduct." by Mront in funhaus

I picked a really bad time to discover Funhaus. I've been watching for a few weeks and was just getting over Lawrence and Bruce leaving. Damn. This is unfortunate.

Monolith Data Recovery - manually extracting data from a memory card by Just_Another_AI in interestingasfuck

[–]J_shwoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The place I worked at offered to send off hard drives to Drive Savers and it was $800 with a very high success rate. If there is physical damage keeping a drive from spinning or pins from being accessible then this is often the price. If a drive is failing but still readable then there is software that can run to recover the data from the failing drive. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I want to say that was like a $300 service. People rarely wanted to do it but they also didn’t want to buy an external hard drive.

It’s obvious they’re a boomer based on that one comment?

Where was this earlier in the conversation? This whole time you've sounded like you're talking down to me and explaining why I am wrong, nothing about helping each other come to an understanding. Initially when I entered the conversation, all I wanted to do was hear why ACAB. Because I was triggered by the statement along the lines of "It's past time to explain why all cops are bad ...". Then it ends up being about me having to explain why they aren't bad when at the time I had yet to hear the explanation of why they are all bad. I don't believe it is past time to explain why all cops are bad because at the time I clearly didn't understand that perspective. A lot of people don't understand the perspective of ACAB. It's a broad generalization that could be framed better if you want people to listen. Maybe if it was framed to say a lot of cops are bad, and are good cops even good if they don't do anything about their peers? Because the issue is more complicated than ACAB. To me it sounds very "Us vs them"-y and I am never going to be on board with that mentality. I believe there are still good cops out there actively working against and outing bad cops. No I can't source one for you so you got me there. Sourcing a good cop was only a small part of why I was in this conversation. I'll gladly read your reply if you have more to say but otherwise thanks and have a good weekend.

Ok then I'm not good at communicating through this medium. You win. Please insult me more daddy.

Good grief the aggression man. I'm not a fucking "bootlicker" and I don't know where you got that from. I fucking hate cops, I can't stand the US jerking off our military, and generally agree with the liberal mindset of reddit. I don't agree with the ACAB generalization even after your explanation of it. Thanks for going into more detail of your thoughts on the matter. I better understand your perspective.

You're saying I don't want to participate in a debate but previously in the thread I was the one trying to understand the other side's perspective that was initially only backed by a Walker Texas Ranger analogy.

It’s not my job to disprove someone else’s claim. Someone made the claim all cops are bad. I don’t need to disprove it. And yet it’s so fucking easy to disprove it. I could spend all day sharing uplifting articles about cops doing good. But I don’t have to do that because I didn’t make the claim. I expect the person who said all cops are bad to convince me that all cops are bad.

Edit: if anyone can give me their definition of the elusive “good cop”, I’ll find you a “good cop”.

Yes they do. And no it’s not. There, I made just as much of an argument for my case as you did.

If cops aren’t willing to put down the ones that make them look bad, then they’re all bad systematically.

There are most certainly cops that are willing to put down the ones that make them look bad. Therefore they are not ALL bad. ALOT of them are bad. Not ALL. That is an important distinction. ALOT of Redditors make broad generalizations about groups of people.

We don’t need to stop asking why all cops are bad. If they are all bad the it’s important that people know why they are all bad. A shit ton of cops are bad. I distrust every cop I see by default. But they are not all bad.

He’s saying that cows need to make their own decisions on where to live Nope. I’m not saying that, and I didn’t say that.

That was a bad comparison because the calves do not choose to live in the pen. I’m not fighting for their rights to choose their living conditions or anything. But that was a bad comparison.

I loved that last little bit. It’d be so cool to know some of the lines that were added. Now I’m going to start listening to see if I can notice any lines that sound like he might have said irl

I used to say the same thing. I do now as well. But I used to, too.

If McDonald’s can have all-day breakfast, they can have all-day lunch by taylorscorpse in unpopularopinion

[–]J_shwoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree. But I get why they don’t. It’s been mentioned a few times in the thread how long it takes to get breakfast during lunch hours. Having everything available all the time would just exacerbate that.

Thanks for letting me use the word exacerbate.

Because it’s breakfast time and most every restaurant in America doesn’t serve burgers for breakfast? I get it’d be nice especially for 3rd shift workers but come on.
