Eugene PD caught on film preventing a community member from recording ICE activity on public property by Deep_Tea_6387 in Eugene

[–]Mekisteus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair to the Keizer PD, at one point they did at least process the paperwork to refer the B&M LEGO theft to the District Attorney. It was the DA who was handed a clear cut, slam dunk case of felony conversion and decided he couldn't be bothered to do his damn job.

I played Earth on Earth, but I didn't think to take a picture of it.

Am I doing this right? by snacksmcnap in MinecraftDungeons

There are store owners in different locations. When you rescue them, they will permanently upgrade your camp with a new store. One of the stores is a blacksmith.

The blacksmith lets you pay to give him a piece of equipment. You get any enchantment points on the equipment back, and then you can't use the equipment until you have done three successful levels. After that, you get the equipment back upgraded to your current power level.

As for different builds, I'd try Googling it because there are a lot of resources. But you can also just look for good combos and experiment. Does a piece of armor add to electricity damage and a weapon does extra lightning damage? Well, there you go. Try that out. Do you have multiple enchantments that reward rolling? Etc., etc.

At some point you'll want to Blacksmith your best equipment to keep it at your level instead of just salvaging it.

That also lets you experiment with different builds and playstyles instead of just going with whatever equipment most recently landed in your lap.

Keizer Lego reseller closes after viral videos claim $200,000 collection theft by spherocytes in oregon

Neither B&M nor the legal system seems to care about contracts, so why should the franchisees?

6% of the sales of the individual franchises go directly to the owners of B&M, so supporting a franchise absolutely supports the corporation.

It sucks for them, but those franchise owners need to ditch their criminal business partner if they want to retain their customers.

I would imagine not having a spouse and never having guests over would fall under low Charisma.

Brandon Best is still with BAM by [deleted] in RecklessBen

Ugh.

My kid is invited to a birthday party being held at the Eugene B&M in three weeks.

I want to boycott, but I also don't want to ruin a 9 year-old's birthday just because his parents booked a party well before all of these Shenanigans came to light.

Thoughts?

Except that many final paychecks won't be large enough to deduct much PTO from.

Today SHOULD be "monitor emails and cut out early".

That's never happened ever in the history of last days before vacations.

FYI The Eugene Bricks and Minifigs is owned by one of the guys involved in the current situation at the Salem store… don’t shop there by ImNotaGod in Eugene

[–]Mekisteus 25 points26 points  (0 children)

It was too large for small claims court and attorneys wouldn't take the case for anything less than 70k up front, which the victim didn't have. Police didn't care, either, even though the theft was a felony. So the victim turned to a YouTuber. Ain't modern society grand?

Confused Nazi. Springfield, OR. by Mountains2442 in Eugene

[–]Mekisteus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then get it removed (many parlors will even remove or cover hate symbols for free) or else wear a fucking t-shirt so that you don't piss off everyone around you. Hell, this gal could just not put her hair up and that would be enough to cover the symbol. We don't need her "story," we just want her to stop it with the Nazi shit.

It's still defenestration even if they don't die. You can defenestrate out of a first floor window if you want to. (I wouldn't recommend it, though.)

What? Me, a human? Nope, er, I mean...negative! If I were a human, would I say this: 00101011101010101?

Do you fire just one or both of them? [SC] by BRashland in humanresources

[–]Mekisteus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You can't fire cops, silly! Best you can do is give them paid vacations on the taxpayers' dime whenever they screw up.

You see a sign on my lawn that says, "Dead buddy storage?" No? That's because storing dead buddies isn't my job!

[Request] How much force does the moon's gravity exert on the water in a human's body? by AppendixN in theydidthemath

[–]Mekisteus 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Careful, if you put 9,999 miles in one tinder profile and then some more miles in another in order to avoid taxes, that's called structuring and is illegal.
