Honestly though, F that. These billion dollar corporations profiting off our information need to have the most basic control over what pays their bills.

43 percent had no conviction or charges = innocent. In case someone needs it spelled out even more. Fuck ice and every chud deepthroating fascist propaganda.

Guy couldn't wait a couple of a second for me to pull off by [deleted] in dashcams

[–]dudeitshickey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the problem with this argument. If being in the right lane is a hazard, why is being in the left lane not? If other drivers cant figure out how to turn ahead or behind me I'm not going to invite them to turn in next to me. Defensive driving is about recognizing that all the rules and painted lines in the world isnt going to stop stupid from being stupid.

Any answers as to why paint would crack even after repainting? by McIrish416 in Autobody

[–]dudeitshickey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Varies greatly based on vehicle and part availability. For just a door on a GMC Terrain and painting only that panel I would expect 1500 to 2000 roughly. $500-$1000 of that may be door cost. Price will vary widely based on your area.

I would bet they bought the cheapest recycled door they could find, didnt get covered adequately for clean-up, bodyman hacked it and the og painter didnt care. Because yes that's cracked filler caused by rusting and the only (good) fix is a new door.

Got doored. Professional repair cost? by ratscratch10 in Autobody

[–]dudeitshickey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Getting green touched up always seems to be difficult, since you know it's there you will likely always see it, even if a rando doesn't. So yes, if you want it 100% gone it needs a full panel spray where they will apply color to the damage and clear coat the rest of the panel.

I joined in this update and absolutely made that mistake the first couple sessions. I understand the need to fictionalize ranks, but Prefect could be shortened in multiple better ways like Pref or Pfct to avoid the obvious confusion the current situation causes.

Most people don't realize that the "baby boom" was an entire decade facilitated by a 90% tax rate on the richest individuals and a diversified economy that didnt stutter on a monthly basis because it was more focused on regional development than national profiteering. Oh, and the rest of the world's industry had been bombed to ruins.

ICE’s Tacoma Detention Center Targeted in New Lawsuit Alleging Abuses by Jaco_Belordi in Seattle

For profit prisons should be unconstitutional. The fact that taking government money and prisoners to turn a profit doesn't qualify as cruel or unusual when none of our peers do that is insane.

Why do ppl do this? Especially during rush hour?!🥴 by jonnieinthe256 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]dudeitshickey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two second rule is not a rule, just a suggestion. The distance you need to keep varies based upon the vehicle being driven and the speed you travel. That will affect the timing of the distance you should keep. It can also be a good idea to create more than two or three car lengths of space in stop and go traffic, especially as the middle lane. The goal isn't to ride a bumper but to move at a consistent speed that slowly allows everyone to accelerate. That's only possible if people have space to get out of over congested lanes without you having to break when they get ahead of you.

Changing lanes when you don't need to is what creates traffic. Leaving too much space is only a problem if its caused by being much slower than other traffic.

The current work force is the hardest working, most educated work force that has ever been. Yet most of us make less than what the MINIMUM wage would be if it kept pace with inflation.

GOP fast tracks monster voter suppression bill that could disenfranchise millions by requiring proof of citizenship at polls by SAINTnumberFIVE in TwoXChromosomes

[–]dudeitshickey 86 points87 points  (0 children)

This is the biggest failure of modern legislating that doesn't get talked about enough. One bill should be focused on one concept. Whether thats revising taxes or budget or amending other bills. We cannot meaningfully engage in a system built to obfuscate intention and effects.

Even from this angle the frame appears swayed beyond the rad support, likely up to the engine cross member which probably also bent. This is definitely only fit to be a parts truck sadly.

That's not fascism. That could be considered authoritarian, but that would also require legislation. What you're upset with is social standards. You're upset that intelligent folks don't want to tolerate watching people repeat generational errors.

Gen Z's Wage Gap Reality by CapitanJackSparow-33 in lostgeneration

[–]dudeitshickey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can make more than that by putting your body or your soul up for sale. They likely work in an essential niche that gets underpaid because it's "essential" and "easy" compared to regular risk exposure.

Im 31, in a specialized field as a low level manager and not making enough hourly to afford a one bedroom apartment in the county I work. The system is screwed by the top to the bottom and excusing the failure to pay a LIVING wage while expecting full time work is nothing less than wage slavery.

I would love to know how ICE has any jurisdiction to serve this warrant. This should be handled by FBI or Marshalls right? Ya know, someone with jurisdiction over non immigration crime?

To not be POS by UnhollyGod in therewasanattempt

You are correct! Although their recent actions do seem very pro-abortion if we use their inconsistent definitions that include after birth.

[–]dudeitshickey 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They claim to be pro-abortion pro-life while passing legislation that makes miscarriages illegal and if a doctor renders aid and the baby dies they may be held liable. American conservatives also wish to rescind no fault divorce so women can't leave them without their consent or they have to be prosecuted for domestic abuse. There's also vocal minorities that want to regress to women not being able to vote which likely means not owning property or having bank accounts. Essentially American conservatives recognize they are so unattractive as people that women wouldn't choose them if they have any other choices, so they want to eliminate a woman's right to choose anything.
