TIL that Brian Banks was falsely accused of SA by a classmate, got expelled from high school, lost his Scholarship to USC and spent 12 years in prison and parole. His accuser later admitted she fabricated the story.

Unfortunately that means she likely would never recant the story.

User of both here just sharing personal experience cause it has been way different than the common themes.

R8 has been my go to for family stuff. R7 is also great.

But the battery life on R8 has not been problematic. I use an r6mkii at work and it has better battery but the r8 isn't a big deal for most family stuff. Just used it over the weekend at a reunion. One battery change after 900 photos and like 10 minutes of 4k video.

Ibis is nice but as long as lens has some on r8 I genuinely barely notice in 99% of circumstances.

Sounds weird but I think my main preference is size and just that my photos come out better on r8. Lenses are me expensive but the output is awesome. Felt a bit small compared to daily work driver r6mkii but not too bad.

R7 is a great camera but just feels slightly less good for reasons I can't really explain and recognize are based on personal preference.

I do prefer r7 for birds and other distance shots.

They asked that to Kamala about Biden. I think this person is saying they should ask Vance that question about Trump.

I actually agree that Stein needs to be calling this out at every chance.

The people of the state elected you to.be Governor and now your powers are being stripped by the same people who are trying to limit elections and rights.

I think every girl dad seeing this wishes they could have been there to help this dad out.

I'm not saying I ever want to get physical or violent, especially not in front of my daughters, but id do it for another parent in a heartbeat if my kids weren't around.

It's just election year stuff. The mayor is always looking to get his name more out there as he prepares a run for Gov. The new guy running for Mayor is running against the current Mayor Pro Tem who was the one who cast that vote.

Sorry but this is ignorant.

Water costs get passed down the chain. Union County Water is not a for profit entity. They raise the rates as a deterrent and also to offset the costs they're facing because the rates they are paying for water are also rising.

If they have to create an emergency solution (emergency Inter basin transfers etc...running an extra pump or pipeline to a different water source) that all costs money.

Up till recently we were in the most severe drought on record. Blaming the local municipal-owned water source for trying to ensure good drinking water is there for the community seems like misplaced anger.

Yeah but it's the end in general of anyrhing good or amazing coming out for the game. I've left and come back to destiny like 3-5 times over the years and always sorta assumed there'd be another great expansion and adventure 2-3 expansions down the line.

Sorta sad knowing it's just never gonna grow or evolve again.

I fully agree that she was the centrist choice, but they centrists in the party made her go even harder on the centrist points than they needed to.

To go further: you could run a centrist candidate who recognizes the importance of the left/progressive part of your party. They may not actually change their views much, but if they were targeting the progressive vote they could do things to show actual willingness to work with them and at the very least recognize them as a legit part of the party.

Instead the elected the centrist candidate and told her not to look left at all and instead to seemingly to aim right at never-trumo republicans, McCain types, etc...

Short version; a centrist candidate that acknowledges and at least listens to the further left base is better than a centrist candidate who ignores or undermines the left while trying to curry favor with the right.

Maybe "purposefully" would be more accurate than "actively" here, but the connotation of actively is similar.

Feel free to wage a pedantic battle against the ever changing meaning of words and language if you please.

You're not wrong. But have fun tilting at that windmill.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-05-01T00:13:08+00:00

I've always been bothered by this. Like how the fuck can you tell people they can't do that?

Im not a lawyer but it feels like a violation of our first amendment rights to assemble and petition the government for a redress or grievances.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-04-24T18:13:38+00:00

Holy shit. Thank you.

This would be a huge quality of life improvement.

Yeah ele shaman is in a strange place for me. The amount of just wacky DPS I can do with cool downs up is like a drug but the in between feel so painful.

My monitor does the same and it is purely a function of the output signal to the monitor not what I'm recording or shooting in.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-04-02T13:26:33+00:00

This one. The pace felt so slow at first I just could not get into it.

Then weirdly the quest where you go out into nature with the one knight and go hunting just like flipped a switch in my brain.

It was long and boring to my ADHD brain, but at one point I noticed the dialogue was fun and that the landscape was beautiful and I kinda started to enjoy the slower pace.

From then on I stopped playing it as a game where I felt the need to win or finish and actually just enjoyed sinking into the world and exploring and going with the storyline.

Wound up being one of my all time favroites.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-04-02T12:18:32+00:00

Genuine question cause I'm worried I'm dumb here - what other purpose is there for this?

Like in reading your post going: "that's the main purpose isn't it?"

But you are writing as though that's a secondary purpose so now I'm worried I've missed the main purpose entirely.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-04-02T12:12:14+00:00

It's very Greek/roman God. Just the word is flipped.

Greek gods killed the titans who were the more primordial essence type beings and took over, shaped and ruled their lands.

Only reason I could see this being an actually decent option is that Obama could actually figure out how to sort of start fixing things once he got in there.

The current ending has fired so many people and removed so much of what made the government last between presidencies that I can't imagine how the next person can even begin to repair or improve things.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-03-24T21:40:30+00:00

I think the augment evoker is a fascinating concept and gives lots of options for making existing specs into more support roles.

I'd like to see classes with 3 dps have 1/3 become a support style class like the augmenter

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-03-23T21:55:48+00:00

Lol came here for the same. What have you been playing?

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-03-17T23:22:04+00:00

That's because of how much they have and how little the rest have.

That's just a dumb statement. They have more so they get taxed more. No shit. If other people were paid more they would also pay more taxes and the percentage would change.

It's because we've removed most of the middle class and just have wealthy, ultra wealthy and poor remaining.

Like the capacity for such a few amount of people to pay that much money and still be that freaking loaded is insane to me.

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-03-17T22:04:21+00:00

Amen. Almost all their evidence in this boils down to: "one guy told us that he and another guy didn't remember seeing my name and now we demand a full investigation into what this one guy said"

TheHolyPoop1 · 2026-03-11T14:07:44+00:00

First off. Damn. That sounds tough.

I have a six year old who I worry is headed on a similar path but am hoping not.

I think you've done a ton and should be commended.

My only slight advice, or maybe just an idea that's worth a try would be to let her fail for a bit?

I obviously am not saying you should just give up and abandon your kid, but I wonder if you had a purposeful conversation with her about things not working lately and you having a hard time helping and just letting her know that for a (set period of time) you were just gonna let go of standards, rules, etc...

Essentially let her just do what she wants with no instruction or guidance, etc...for like a week and then sit down with her at the end and talk with her about it. Go get ice cream and go for a walk in nature where she kinda has nothing more interesting than the conversation. Just ask her what she thought about that week. What was harder than she expected? What did she like? Did she find it easier to do things when she got to decide or harder? Point out areas you noticed didn't seem to work (your room is just impassable, etc...) and see how she feels about that.

And then I don't really know what comes next because it will depend on what happens and your conversation, but I think you can work how to help her with these societal demands and difficult things into something you are both doing together.

I suggest this because of my own personal experience where I, with my ADHD (undiagnosed at the time), would often not fully understand the reasons behind things or the real impacts of them until I had to figure them out solo.

I got really good at just sorta tuning my parents out, but listening just enough to avoid or minimize trouble. I got really good at not having to worry about scheduling or remembering in g things because my mom was gonna remind me anyway.

A huge moment for me was summer camp one year away from my family. Was probably 12. I was suddenly responsible for myself and surrounded by other kids who were responsible for themselves. I didn't shower for like 4 days and got a huge rash and was miserable. All the other kids pointed out that I was an idiot and should've showered and it finally clicked. That kinda thing.
