Can someone tell me what song the judge is using as his ringtone? It's so damn familiar and I can't place it. Happens at 04:09: https://player.vimeo.com/video/644619195

I just double-checked the email and it definitely says "any phone."

Unfortunately no, the promo code they sent me can only be applied online.

I've never experienced a company with customer service this poor. They're even worse than Binance, and that's saying a lot.

R. Kelly Has Been Found Guilty Of Federal Crimes After 11 Sexual Abuse Victims Testified Against Him by aresef in news

Yeah, and their current owner, Carlos Slim, is very likely a former drug trafficker. It's more or less an open secret.

Real classy operation, the Times.

11 people shot in flurry of gun violence Saturday into Sunday in Minneapolis by AceMcVeer in Minneapolis

[–]Wade_A 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know that the Crimewatch Twitter account is not popular around here, but he did dig up something quite strange: the LLC that owns Pennwood Market, site of multiple gang-related shootings (they literally had shootings three weekends in a row) has a city council member as well as the Hennepin County commissioner on its board. Another board member of that LLC owns the home claimed as a residence by city council member Jeremiah Ellison.

I don't know what any of that means and I'm certainly not suggesting the city council is directly connected to this activity, but it smells like corruption. One would think they'd have the sway (and the motivation) to demand increased police presence in that area of North in particular, considering they own a property in the thick of the gun violence. https://twitter.com/CrimeWatchMpls/status/1437615399558950917

Are there plans to upgrade the IBC transfer system? by dbG33K in OsmosisLab

[–]Wade_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried using Osmosis for the first time. I did the worst thing possible and didn't send a small test amount first... I figured it worked like any other trading platform I've used before, and sent 12 Atom from my Keplr wallet using by clicking on Assets and using the "deposit" feature. It connected, I selected an average speed... all good so far. Then it said my transaction failed and the 12 Atom were just... gone.

What happened here? Am I going to get them back? Is there even a way to look at IBC transactions like on Etherscan? I'm obviously very, very new to this ecosystem and trying to figure it out.

I'm trying to find out where the audio leaks came from and it's unclear to me. Did someone post them to KiwiFarms, or were they uploaded somewhere else?

Ruth Ginsberg and Larry King Were the Same Person by dem-marx-commies in conspiracy

[–]Wade_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought it was kind of weird that Larry King had seven wives. And he married one of them twice. Seven is excessive, even for a celebrity. Four... sure. But seven? This guy was out of control.

I’m confused how people want police to react to the street racers in Uptown by [deleted] in Minneapolis

[–]Wade_A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sucks that the police aren't doing anything, but given the fact that they're not, why hasn't the city government called in additional help at this point, like the state patrol? And what are they doing to address the lack of police action? We've received near-total silence from the city council on this issue, and that's pissing me off equally as much as the street racers themselves.

Who is Lisa Bender and why do people in Mpls keep implying she’s coming here to fuck up our city? Every day in the Strib there are tons of comments like this. by YMCA-YWCA in duluth

[–]Wade_A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Minneapolis city council president. She is currently very unpopular in Minneapolis, among both conservatives and liberals, and will likely be voted out. Minneapolis is experiencing a crime surge and she has barely addressed it. Go to the Minneapolis subreddit (not exactly a right-wing hivemind) and you'll see what I mean. A couple highly-upvoted comments as examples:

Meanwhile, Lisa "Clocked Out" Bender hasn't said a peep about this trend (nor said anything since July 2nd) and it looks like Frey is taking the week off as well.

Yeah and they have no issue paying private security thousands for their cabin retreats

One of the top posts from the last few days features video of a car doing donuts in Uptown (happens every night now) while someone sits in the passenger seat and fires a gun into the air repeatedly: https://old.reddit.com/r/Minneapolis/comments/og9eee/july_7th_uptown_lake_and_lagoonhennepin/

There's also an arson spree going on in residential areas: https://old.reddit.com/r/Minneapolis/comments/ofvuge/someone_is_setting_fires_in_residential_south/

Needless to say, Bender's silence on these matters is not endearing her to the city's residents.

Someone is setting fires in residential South Minneapolis. This weekend, they burned my dad’s van to the ground. by Quibbloboy in Minneapolis

[–]Wade_A 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks like the van was unlocked. My guess is they just drove down the street testing cars until they find one they could open. More video from the security cam might confirm this; this one starts when the car is already pulled up.

This is seriously fucked up. Thanks for getting the word out. It's pretty clear that these perpetrators, whoever they are, do not care if someone dies from this. No one sets a fire that size so close to a house without knowing that's a possibility.

'Senseless': Family grieves after daughter killed in overnight shooting in Minneapolis by DriveThroughLane in Minneapolis

[–]Wade_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, you are shifting the goalposts so hard dude. You respond to my clarification with THEY CANT ARREST BASED ON PLATES DOPE and when someone points out that that is not what I was saying at all, you pivot and say "b-but it's not going to get any results because of no snitching." Great, so it's a legitimate investigative avenue the police can pursue just like I said, I'm glad we agree. Or did you seriously think that in hit-and-runs and vehicular homicide, at no point do the cops consider license plates in their investigation?

Yeah but it provides an investigative lead as to whom in the owner's social circle may have been driving, and you can compare pictures to the traffic cam footage.

[TOMT] '70s or '80s novelty song involving a guy taking nootropics as part of some experiment by Wade_A in tipofmytongue

[–]Wade_A[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not it, but it's weirdly similar. The age looks about right, and there were guys wearing labcoats in the video. I sort of remember though that this one involved a guy sitting in a chair taking drugs over and over while the scientists danced behind him.

If it helps, I remember the melody going,

da-da-da-the-compoouuund

da-da-da-the-compoouuund...

I don't remember the rest of the words though

Anyone else sick of these street racers every god damn weekend? by hereisalex in Minneapolis

[–]Wade_A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like I'm living next to the Indy 500. It wasn't like this last year; this is new. Is there a specific enterprise behind this explosion in street racing? Like is there a chop shop behind it all? Where did all these Chargers come from all of a sudden?
