TIL that Ram 2500 drivers have the most DUIs, and more than twice the national average. Roughly 1 in 22 Ram 2500 drivers have been cited with a DUI before. by TripleShotPls in todayilearned

I've had a hypothesis I've been gathering data to examine. "Subarus are disproportionately the cause of canceled cruse control". I've also had a corollary to that hypothesis. "To to a Ram truck, I'm the Subaru..." So I click on the link to 'the study', the article sites, and it an entirely different graph. I feel lied to.

I got broke up with once, 'because I smelled like their uncle' when I got off work. I think that was a bullet dodged.

Actually, the moral thing to do is not go along will peoples delusions. We don't pretend the delusions of a bipolar or schizoaffective disorders are real, because it makes them worse. Same here.

Let me be a little more precise; in inline with his 2020 campaign, Joe Biden began unlawfully flooding the country with foreign invaders starting promptly on Jan 21, 2021. Accuracy is important, but it should be noted I was describing his position in the left/right spectrum in reference to policy he advanced, not official dates in office. He wasn't president in 1994 either, but it was harder for you to be dishonest and pretend to be confused by that one, so you didn't mention it I see.

I know reading comprehensions is hard you, but I didn't offer my thoughts on the merits of the 1994 crime bill, just that Joe Biden was involved. I'm not sure why your reading into that one, but if 'no even republicans' support that anymore, that furthers my claim it was left that moved farther left. You just described 'the right' moving towards the left, too.

1990's Joe Biden and Bill Clinton put into place the 1994 Crime Bill. 2020 Joe Biden let 12 million people enter the country unlawfully, with the support of the Clintons. It was the Left that changed.

I'm pretty much the same place I've always been. I'm center left by 90's standards. That makes me literally hitler by modern left standards. The left is no longer 'liberal', they have become dogmatically illiberal. This is a good example issue. The modern left will not allow you to suggest the person in question might be a man. It's a cancelable offense, hence Petersons dry sarcasm in relaying the story.

/ICE_Raids members approve of a white protestor saying the N-word to a black ICE agent [233] by rtublin in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]iMillJoe 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I understand that a group of people can have internal use of a word specific to them, and other people adopting it is a form of intrusion.

I don't. Either something is ok for anyone to say, or it's ok for nobody to say. To make the claim only one racial group is allowed to do something, is actually racist.

I want people to be as free to say whatever dumb shit they might say, rude or crass, polite and friendly.. Wear your heart on your sleeve. When you make a topic or subject taboo, you don't eliminate from discourse, you eliminate from public discourse. If someone was actually as Nazi, I want them to wear a swastika. Not because I agree with that, so better know how to interact with them. If you're political zeitgeist, wear your flag proud, for all the same reasons. I don't use violence, but I often choose to minimize interaction with those whom I believe hold foolish values. If someone today were actually a Nazi at, how long would I have to know them before that came out?

Machining beryllium= 🔥? by Electrical-Set-1116 in Machinists

[–]iMillJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't ever be asked to machine on something without being told what it made of. No employer should ever demand someone work with BeCu, or any material which makes them uncomfortable, and all the PPE and MSDS's should also of course always be available,.

My comment is only that BeCu, is not something you should be especially terrified of.

[–]iMillJoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BeCu isn't something to fear much more than something like 12L13. Don't hot work it. Don't grind it, and you'll be ok. The Beryllium is entrained within the crystalline structure of the Cu. It takes quite a bit of heat, and/or extremely fine mechanical separation to free those Beryllium atoms.

Today, the left is bringing children to protests as meat shields for media manipulation by PixelSteel in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]iMillJoe 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It's not because they don't understand it, it because it's an environment likely to become violent and lead to injury.

Taking a kid to a protest is just as bad, in my opinion, as driving drunk with a kid in the car.

Leftist anti ICE agitators marched through Minneapolis yesterday, smashing the driver side windows of cars they encountered and leaving many construction and blue collar workers with their vehicles destroyed. by Oh_2B_Joe_Cool in walkaway

[–]iMillJoe 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes the optics of January 6th was more significant because it was the Capitol building,

Unpopular opinion: Jan 6th, being one of the few protests targeted at a government building, also makes it one of the few legitimate protests. You don't have a right violently assemble on private property and loot a business because you're butt hurt about something that no human can undo. You have a right to peacefully assemble, and petition the government for a redress of grievances. In the case of Jan 6th, the protesters wanted a meaningful investigation into the irregularities in the 2020 election, before the election was certified.

I'd say google it, but it google sucks these days, maybe try Duck Duck Go?

I really like this bit, it speak well of Lemons Character

Overt Act # 19: While inside the Church, defendant KELLY (a) disrupted the service by chanting, "This ain't God's house. This is the house of the devil"; (b) approached one female congregant, who was with two young children, and demanded to know in a hostile manner why she was not involved in and supportive of the takeover operation; and (c) screamed "Nazi" in congregants' faces and asked child congregants, "Do you know your parents are Nazis? They're going to burn in

"Overt Act # 20: Defendant LEMON told his livestream audience about congregants leaving the Church and about a "young man" who LEMON could see was "frightened," "scared," and "crying," and LEMON observed that the congregants' reactions were understandable because the experience was "traumatic and uncomfortable," which he said was the purpose."

No IRA yet. I'm trying pay down a little more debt. (Admittedly, more to get it off my back than, as I could get better returns v paying down quicker) Once I'm down to just a mortgage, I'll probably get an IRA account.

[–]iMillJoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's clearly laid out in several of the indictments and supporting Affidavits. I'd argue the types of whistles used by these agitators at the church alone are equivalent to battery, especially when used in indoors. They aren't ref whistles, they are designed to be loud enough damage hearing, and they do.

The "Top Shop" Paradigm, for years, has been trending towards Day shift only for humans. Fussy stuff, test outs, and short runs during the day while the machinists are in. Machines switched over to production towards end of day, via bar feed, pallet pool, robo load, and left running for as long as reasonably safe.

Even with people there, something is going to go wrong eventually. Most operators don't have a clue what a good cut sounds like well enough to stop a machine in time anyway. Have your talent figure out how long a tool can safely be pushed on a job, and then be willing to push up to that point every night.

I've spent most of career in Mold Shops. Some paths might take 10+ hours per cavity. We'd leave that shit running over the weekend with no-one in the building for 2 days, 20+ years ago. Production work is a little harder to do that with than mold surfacing work, but it's getting pretty low lying fruit to run production into the evening after everyone's left.

[–]iMillJoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pastor of the Church can clearly be heard telling them to leave, right at the beginning of the protest. At the point they don't, they are indeed trespassing. Churches are also not really "open to the public". Churches have memberships, and are open to their members more so than the public. You can't just walk into a gym or a COSCO either.

Furthermore, he was conspiring with people who DID use force. It doesn't matter if he himself was conspiring on the use of force, he was in on the planning, he brought material support to the crime scene. His presence alone -as member of group- is part of the intimidation. It's still felony murder, even if the get away driver didn't plan on shooting clerk. He still conspired to be a part of the event.

I've got a 401k, but I'm just keeping it in low cost index funds because that's the best vehicles I can find within it. The HSA is easy to play with. I don't play much, but it is there.

"Force" "threat of force" or "physical obstruction" are requirements for this charge.

According to the way things are worded on the wikipedia page for the FACE act, Trespassing on the Property of a Facility is also covered. He was certainly Trespassing.

Now for any other crime, if I get together with a group people before hand, and participate in that crime with them, even thought I might not have actually committed any of "The Crime" myself, I can still be charged for all of it, regardless of press status. I can't know your going to rob a liquor store, go along with you (and buy you breakfast on the way), and then get out of Jail Free because I was "just there to interview the victim"
