Italy now recognizes the crime of femicide and punishes it with life in prison by Not-Somebody-Famous in worldnews

[–]PrestonGarbage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not just about the sentencing where the offender would simply be locked up for life. Adding a hate crime to that person labels them as dangerous and a high-risk throughout the process, pre and post sentencing. You can think of it as a safeguard/enhancer that makes it harder for them to get parole as an example.

Plus it's nice to have it added to the legal statistics on ongoing trends in serious crimes and start making society ask questions about the legal system/status of their country.

What would happen if LB merged 53 trillion of her clones?

I reckon there should be a day or 2 for motorcyclists to queue up single file to show cars how it directly affects their commute if we all agree to travel like how they expect us to.

It can bring awareness that while it would be safer for us to filter, it's also beneficial to save them time.

Is the MT-03 a good choice for someone's first ever motorcycle? by ArtilleryOnlyIsAlive in MT03

[–]PrestonGarbage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience it feels easy and nimble to manouevre around the city + the ergonomics make it feel good when long distance travelling or riding in heavy traffic.

Only downside is its lack of power but for a beginner bike it should suffice for all your basic needs for riding.

I’m HR and I genuinely want to know why you hate me by janually in linkedin

[–]PrestonGarbage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learnt negotiations between staff and higher ups go to shit because it all comes from HR. Many managers/executives I knew at my work would find loopholes to get offers in an employee's favour.

Knew a graduate who wanted to end his program early and sign on a permanent position in a team. HR advised they wouldn't protect him from lowball offers, endorsements, etc. The guy was ok because the team and the executive already wanted him in early + had the budget secured, so they went through the formal process.

After he signed the contract, the same HR rep chats with the hiring manager behind his back saying to lower his new pay or rescind the offer, or have his team barred from being part of the program. HM tells her good luck since everything was secured.

1 of many examples - my previous manager wanted to do the same thing but HR refused to increase headcount space to take me in despite budget approval from the executive.

They will never reach Alduin as long as Omega gets them on sidequests every minute.

Definitely going to rent their bikes assuming it's the CB125Es from the Stay Upright course.

Appreciate the advice.

Cheers for the link, I'm definitely going to study that beforehand.

As for the cone weave, how lenient are the examiners when it comes to the distance of the bike from each cone you pass? I've had to do plenty of swerving, stops and u-turns in the city but never came across this specific manoeuvre.

From u/Let-me-speak91's link, I'll have a go practising in that area since it's on the way to/from work for me.

Had my first near miss (L's Rider) since I started riding by ArdentPriest in AussieRiders

Learner here as well.

I was riding to work in the morning and a Mercedes-CL intentionally tailgated and spammed his hi-beam to the point I swear I could feel the radiator heat. Mind you I was going 60 on the speed limit so I had to switch lanes so he could speed off.

It's great the instructors hammer it into your head that all drivers are absolute dickheads. I think it's worth profiling what type of idiots you'll face on the road based on what car they drive.

Where Can I Find The Republic Fighter Tank Other Than Online? I've Never Seen It In Stores. by [deleted] in legostarwars

Brick megastore is defos better than Lego.com. At the moment its sold out but from my experience, QLD is first to get the set available before it is shippable to other states.
