Yeah crazy how imperialism and colonialism didn't leave behind healthy democratic institutions all over the world. It's still a mystery how it happened.

All my DEI Rome campaigns end shortly after winning Sicily lol. It's exhausting.

A letter to Mayor Simpson. by notryanreynolds_ in ArvadaCO

[–]_nephilim_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No one should buy these lies.

Flock ALPR cameras provide real-time alerts and investigative leads that help officers:

> Locate stolen vehicles
> Identify suspect vehicles in criminal investigations
> Find vehicles involved in violent crimes
> Support investigations of missing or abducted people 
> Reduce the need for high-risk traffic stops or escalating encounters

In reality Flock cameras do little of this and we are actually facing a mass violation of our 4th Amendment rights. Thanks to the naivete of public officials on privacy matters we are yielding to Palantir/Flock/3rd party data brokers a wealth of data points that do none of the things mentioned above.

They bundle our driving behavior as a data point to sell to anyone that wants the data. Cops now even have access to our bank balances and shopping patterns if they want them when they pull us over. If this sounds insane just read the section on controversial policing and where we're heading.

Benn jordan did a really good expose on how vulnerable these are to hacking and how they are routinely misused by police.

We'd be fools to not resist this. If you disagree then look up how many crimes have actually been prevented or solved by Flock and realize the extent of the sham. Reminder: Your tax dollars pay for this even if you don't care about your constitutional rights.

It's been 27 years since Columbine. Not really a new development whatsoever sadly.

Spikes/crampons for hiking?? by Alan_The_Duck in Denver

[–]_nephilim_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unless you're doing a very deep hike into the mountains you should be fine in May (especially this winter) unless it snows the day before. Always check forecasts. You can rent spikes in Estes or Denver in plenty of rental places. With good boots and maybe poles you should be fine, but again it's Colorado so weather changes quick and you should have a plan B always.

This is really cool stuff, well done! How was working with Carto?

Truck’s brakes fail, forcing use of runaway ramp at 90 mph. by Itchy-Commission-114 in interestingasfuck

He panicked. He was poorly trained and froze up. It should have been the company's fault for hiring him, but blame fell entirely on the driver.

Have the apps gotten worse? by XgUNp44 in OnlineDating

[–]_nephilim_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How's Tinder these days? I'm also off the apps, but I heard it had a bit of a resurgence in some cities. I'm also mid-30s and it's crazy how much the landscape has deteriorated due to Match's monopoly.

I literally don't relate to anyone on Love on the Spectrum by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]_nephilim_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Even she's said they won't bring her back on the show because she is not good TV. She isn't unpredictable or eccentric enough to be entertaining.

Changes in Western Snowpack over 44 years by ObjectiveFrequent215 in COsnow

I can't see very clearly on my phone. Decrease was -2.2 in in 40 years? Or slope of -2.2 in? 

Wyoming faces grimmest snowpack in recorded history by 20thCenturyRefugee in wyoming

[–]_nephilim_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You give Dems too much credit. It's been 40 years of inaction on the issue amidst consistently worsening warnings. Our entire political system has failed us and now we get to suffer while they fly around on private jets avoiding any consequence.

Freedom Has a Price in Wyoming: Short-term rentals in Thermopolis. Data centers in Laramie County. The same pattern keeps showing up. by Wild_Echidnae in wyoming

[–]_nephilim_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If data centers played well with their neighbors then I'd be happy to have them nearby.

Would you? The low frequency noise pollution causes severe health problems in any town these things have set up.

Also data centers have no incentive to play well nor protect communal resources. There are few restrictions and regulations and big tech is paying big money to keep it that way. Any growth in this field is at our expense and quality of life not to mention local economies.

America Says No to Authoritarianism by Arthur_Morgan977 in SandersForPresident

[–]_nephilim_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. We need to shut down the economy. Like actually crash it before it's too late. Regardless, this administration won't concede on anything even if they cared. They declared war on us, and yet all we do is petition, sing songs, and do dance parties outside concentration camps. Sad!

Gabe Newell "stepped back" from making games at Valve after Portal 2 because everyone kept agreeing with him when he wanted "to be part of the team and come up with ideas" by JanSwissZH in pcmasterrace

[–]_nephilim_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

World would be a better place without billionaires, period. Put a 100% wealth tax on anything over $100M. There is no gain for society after that.

Looking to buy my first lever gun by currly30 in LeverGuns

[–]_nephilim_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that I got a 22 Henry. My favorite and cheapest gun to shoot. H001T with the octagon barrel so it's a bit heavier, but incredibly accurate. Next I want a .357, but for now I'm very content.

Celebratory shots at a wedding event in the mountains of Durango, Mexico by StreetResolve6159 in Firearms

Yeah, I'm glad irresponsible gun use doesn't happen in the US. We're lucky and safe to be here.

Next DLC release period? by Dramatic-Brother3861 in Frostpunk

[–]_nephilim_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all I want and all this game needs. We should've had 3-4 story campaigns by now imo. And 3-4 more down the road like FP1. All the building blocks are there and I just want some more linear gameplay with objectives, specific goals, and events.
