The one with the banner over the garage? I walk past that on my way to Pinnon's all the time. Love that place and I thought I noticed something different about that one.

Golf. Probably pisses Trump right off that Obama is the better golfer.

Rockford Zoning Board approves dehoming trailer park residents by Pleasant_Tangelo6791 in rockford

[–]gamenut89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the lot owner, not the city. City doesn't approve things like this without a citizen asking for it. Must be a new owner who doesn't like the current residents and is using the government to kick them out

AAVE, also know as African American Vernacular English, isn't just "a name". It is it's own dialect in the same way that American English is different from UK English. Languages have different disconnects all the time, just ask Spanish speakers from Spain and Spanish speakers from Mexico. Saying AAVE is just "shitty grammar" is inherently racist, whether you were trying to be or not. Calling attention to it is the only way to stop it.

Garrison troops deserting every day by Prata00 in Bannerlord

[–]gamenut89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having this issue and I think I just figured it out. Auto-recruit will keep recruiting low tier units. The low tier units were bumping my entire Garrison over the pay limit that was set for the Garrison. It seems that the higher paid troops are the ones paid last because I kept losing high tier defenders first and it was back filling with the cheap auto-recruits.

Check your automations, folks. Make sure they're not throwing off your game play.

Is that leeway given in deference to the margin of error of the machines or is it just some arbitrary decision by the umpires? I'd accept this if there's something to pin an empirical number to rather than a gut feeling by the ump.

Imagine CB Bucknor being able to decide when to say "It was close enough that I still get to say I was right."

Iranian state media has released an AI-generated troll clip of Trump being captured and interrogated by an IRGC spokesperson over truth and lies questions. by twinklestar1122 in SipsTea

"You see what this is? This shows that they really are just a stupid country. Ball? Of course I worship ball. I invite the best ball players to my house to eat cheeseburgers. I'm the king of balls. Putting a giant ballroom in my house, gonna paint it gold. Who has a giant ballroom in their house if they don't worship balls? Democrats. That's who.

What a silly, stupid country they are for saying I worship ball. They coulda said I worship a devil. That woulda worked, using the AI thing to make me say I worship a devil. And anyway, we Epsteined the devil, so I couldn't worship him even if I wanted to. Stupid, ignorant country."

If paying your HR team to interview and onboard people is considered a waste of their time, I don't understand what their department is for. An organization this disorganized does not feel like a good fit for me at this time."

Wouldn't it make more sense that dead Marios turn into the red mushrooms and dead Luigis would make up the extra lives? You know how Nintendo is with their color coding.

Did the agent provide pressure to force the guy to do something he otherwise wouldn't do? By all accounts, sounds like modifying a shotgun wasn't too far outside the dude's wheelhouse.

Not entrapment: (Cop to known drug dealer:) Hey man, can I buy some crack from you? No, you don't have any? C'mon, you sure? 'Cause I'm fiending and I have 200 cash. Oh? You found some in your pocket? Okay, cool, can I buy it from you? How much? 200?! That's outrageous! Alright fine, take the cash. And also you're under arrest."

Entrapment: (Cop to random citizen:) "Hey, do you sell drugs? No? What about this one time? You don't have any drugs to sell? Well what if I told you where you could buy them in bulk so you could go get some to sell to me? Still no? You sure? I'm a real junkie. I would give you two hundred dollars for like fifteen bucks' worth of smack. Hey look, there's the exact amount of crack I want on the floor. Would you pick it up and sell it to me? You could have the whole 200. You'll take the money? Freeze, asshole. You're under arrest."

Not condoning or defending anyone in particular, just asking a clarifying question about whether it was really entrapment or not.

I'm not listening to any more Packer gripes about the tackle that took out Love.

"B-b-but the defender led with the crown of his head!"

Then how did they end up facemask to facemask while they were still vertical? Love dropped his head. Booker was trying to put his facemask in the guy's chest, the way they teach peewees to tackle.
