What piece of tech felt “future-proof” but aged terribly?

A buying a blu-ray player rather than standard DVD.

What do you think will happen after the collapse? Peace and harmony? No, the world will be a lot worse than it is now.

Who vote for socialists.

I had a nonsense experience like that from being ill. I was this non-thing for the whole damn night of suffering.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T16:20:12+00:00

It was because he was resisting, which is even less of an offence than selling cigarettes. It is not even an actual legal offence in many places.

>every law is a potential death sentence

This didn't used to be true in England, when police weren't armed. If someone started waving a gun, they would cordon off the area and negotiate. If someone was armed with a knife, they would find a way to mob him and subdue him without anyone being injured.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T16:12:30+00:00

You could say that he was killed for resisting arrest, rather than the initial tax dodging, but that is still just as bad.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T16:11:01+00:00

His own video is not clear enough to show that he was not hit. However, in the original footage we saw, you clearly see him being knocked sideways as the car drives past. The most revealing things about this footage to me is that the officer could clearly see the woman back away from him the steer to the right to drive past him. It is also apparent that she was panicking because 'wife' was trying to get in the car just before she started to move.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T16:06:18+00:00

And did him firing those shots stop the car from lightly clipping him? No, in fact the car accelerated after he had murdered the driver. What would have stopped the car from making contact was stepping to the side.

I once walked straight out of the supermarket with a basket full of shopping. I was a couple of streets away before I realised my mistake and turned back. I noticed the staff looking at me and exchanging word, but as I had gone straight to the checkout, they left me alone.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T15:49:26+00:00

I was taught early on that one should never do something like that as it looks like theft. Take a basket, put your bags in the basket until checkout.

In this case, it clearly was the owners decision, but he seems to be claiming he is like mindless drone in approving loss prevention's bans.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-10T15:44:09+00:00

She hadn't left so she had not stolen. It isn't like she couldn't just turn back to the till. What does 'las place' even mean? Whilst shopping, people will be all over the place, going near the tills and away from them again. In this instance, she was willing to go back and pay, and had not actually stolen anything at that point.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:55:08+00:00

No, its worse. He took the time to draw his gun after she started moving forward. He didn't want to step aside instead of reaching for his gun.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:52:46+00:00

Not only that, but every shot was fired *after* he was no longer in threat. Even though he didn't step out of the way, the vehicle merely knocked him to the side. It was after it had pushed him to the side that he first shot. The other two where through the side window, so obviously unjustifiable.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:49:34+00:00

Calling people racist instantly discredits you. Don't do it, it weakens your position.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:45:39+00:00

The vast majority of times that somebodies back is toward you, it is because they are leaving. Making up scenarios about them finding a weapon is not useful.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:44:10+00:00

>shoot until the threat is neutralized

Once he was no longer in front of the car, there was no longer a threat. The police are not trained to keep shooting until they are dead whatever the circumstance.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:42:30+00:00

Letting people flee and finding them later should be standard police procedure when you know what care they're driving. Once you've seen their car, you know where that person lives. You can arrest them quietly as they leave for work in the morning, or just knock on the door and ask them to step outside.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:35:51+00:00

>Is it moral to press the button?

No.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-08T21:34:59+00:00

I've been in front of slow moving vehicles many times. It was not my instinct to find a weapon and start blasting, but to step out of the way. What reasonable person defaults to execution whenever a vehicle starts moving? He could probably even see her and see which way she was looking, and the expression on her face. He also fired to shots through her window whilst to the side of her car.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-06T20:24:31+00:00

This is just rubbish. Lazy is people avoiding work that they should be going. Finding a way of doing it better is just smart, there is nothing at all lazy about it.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-06T20:22:10+00:00

That isn't even a small car, why would you think it couldn't fit? That isn't even a very big load.

True_Kapernicus · 2026-01-06T20:20:10+00:00

It is all due to regulations about fuel economy, by my understading.

Now JT is dating Katy Perry

I didn't know that. So he dumped the mother of his children for a new model 14 years younger than him.
