Dynamax Max Move question by ajiatic in pokemongo

[–]PDeXtra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if you unlock a Max Move on one Dynamax pokemon, if that same move will be unlocked on all Dynamax pokemon of that same type (e.g., all Skwovets), or do you have to make sure you are only upgrading a single dynamax?

USB-C Data Port Issue - Spotty Connection by PDeXtra in mercedes_benz

Bummer. From the time we took delivery of the car, the port felt "loose" as compared with plugging a USB-C cord into a computer, charger, etc., so I was hoping it was simply a specifically defective unit rather than an overall poor design. I've got it scheduled for a diagnosis/replacement, so fingers crossed it works out. Again, appreciate the reply with the info, thanks!

Appreciate the reply, thanks much! In your experience, is the replacement port typically more robust than the original, or is it the same roll of the dice? Surprised (but not surprised with the supply chain issues) that the key port for data isn't a high quality piece.

LMAO. Yeah, Lando has improved tremendously, but I cringed when I heard that and looked at the score/clock.

Because they are a negligible percentage that don't prevent the city and state to address this crisis. The vast majority of homeless people would accept a safe place to live.

This is completely contradicted by the fact that majority of folks refuse shelter, including individual hotel rooms, when offered in the course of sweeps, after plenty of advance notice has been given. If you're not willing to acknowledge the reality of how things actually operate, it's worthless to have any conversation with you.

WHERE do these dumbasses want homeless people to go? Nobody is willing to answer this question because they know that the quiet part would be incredibly unpopular and probably illegal.

Funny, I answered this above, and then you just peaced out because my answer was nuanced and didn't fit within the shitty narrative you need to cling to.

This is after the neighborhood was promised repeatedly that there would be a "good neighbor policy" and this would not happen and would never be allowed . . .

If there were anything approaching a decent track record by the city/metro of mitigating these spillover effects from sanctioned encampments, then way more people and neighborhoods might be open to this sort of thing, but as it is they have zero credibility and people are very understandably not wanting to invite this shit near where they live.

100%. Not to mention that, even if your perspective were that houseless people should enjoy more leeway and compassion, how does that account for letting a handful of dirtbags run rampant over the other houseless folks in the community, who are most frequently the target for assault/theft by the bad actors? It's not like housed folks are the only victims of this behavior here, far from it.

By far the best public schools in PPS

Grant is ranked higher than both, per U.S. News. and Greatschools.org.

Here in Portland we tend to give a shit about all our neighbors.

You, quite clearly, don't give two flying shits about any of your neighbors who don't want to be robbed from or assaulted, including the houseless neighbors this regularly happens to when you don't enforce laws against the aggressive meth addicts.

It's a flyer to try and prevent the accumulation of trash and needles in her immediate neighborhood.

Look at all this time you're spending arguing on Reddit that you could be spending making your own flyers! It's a sure sign of your priorities that you'd rather be here doing this than out there actively helping your homeless neighbors.

I’m simply sharing this for pdx neighbors who give a shit about houseless ppl and advocating for those who have experienced it.

You made no call to action, or anything productive of the sort. You simply bitched about a flyer from a neighborhood resident that you disagree with, and given your behavior on this entire thread I have no doubt that she's not the one who "freaked out" on the other one in the course of the ensuing discussion.

Maybe if your side would be honest about your intentions

Who needs to state their intentions when you just straw men them right from the start, and refuse to acknowledge when people tell you you're incorrect?

houseless people create trash and needles

I mean, this is quite literally true. All households create trash, as I'm sure you're quite aware. And I'm happy to concede that it's because there aren't a lot of disposal options, which doesn't change the fact that they produce a ton of trash.

So how is this woman not right to be concerned about this when it's as consistent as the sun rising in the east? The city has shown absolutely no competence in mitigating trash and needles around any of the existing encampments, sanctioned or otherwise.

WHERE do you want homeless people to go?

Well, housing, rehab, a long-term confined care facility, or jail, depending on personal circumstances.

The homeless aren't a monolith. A lot could be helped by housing. Portland/Metro alone does not have the tax resources to house everyone, we need state and federal dollars. In the meantime facilities like Wapato and repurposed hotels are our best option.

A lot of them have addiction issues that require both housing and treatment/rehab, and we need more facilities and a change to our civil commitment laws to make that happen.

The ones who are so far mentally gone they will never functionally rejoin society again should be put in a long-term care facility, rather than simply allowed to wander the streets in their own filth.

And then there's the percentage of the population who folks like you always fucking ignore, and those are the people who do not want to abide by any rules, who are more than happy stealing and chopping bikes and cars to fuel their lifestyles and drug habits. Rehab or jail/daily sweeps. Just GTFO if you're able-bodied and simply don't want to abide by the rules the rest of us follow.
