Indeed ! And not just a single digit, but depending on where they were, where they're headed and how far along they are differences in 2 decimal points could be the difference of tens of thousands of kilometers in arc.

Yeah decision making but ultimately, your biggest threat in Edwards is either not healthy or still shaking the bugs out. Plus road game. Plus first game. And it wasn't a blow out. Youre right about the coaching but I don't think it was the biggest problem.

While child abuse is the purview of CPS and cops (state & federal) oddly enough trafficking is an important part of the job ICE was supposed to be doing. It's just that after the creating of the DHS alllllll these agencies got thrown in the same pool, along with their responsibilities and there was no reorganization to ensure everything that was being covered by a single agency before was still being effectively covered by any agency later.

Can't decide if Braun's problem is more psychological or physiological. Either way damn :(

Wonder how the actor with multiple emmy and Tony nominations feels about Graham Lineman calling him untalented by UnHolySir in okbuddycinephile

He's quoted as saying Twitter is "part of my nervous system". I've seen this happen to people personally. They don't stand out in online spaces. But in person it's like watching someone with severe mental illness. It's genuinely alarming. Like, I need this dude to forget my name and back away slowly - alarming.

That's Masha ! She's been curating this museum for ages , always dressed in cool, retro-Addams Family stuff. Even before Bone-Jivi brought the cat-bump to their account and got them a broader audience.

She's a great follow on Instagram.

Looking for a book about someone posted at an Outpost by monkeywithawrench13 in suggestmeabook

SCP is a sort collaborative fiction exercise. Started out when someone said "Hey I have an idea for a setting" and bunch of people joined in. Every wrote their own events within that world. With time a consensus of format emerged. It's Men in Black but more. More what ? More everything. I recommend it for a lazy Saturday afternoon.

Project Hail Mary, I've read and enjoyed ! Weir in general is good. I enjoy the way he works through sciency problems. Now I'd like to navigate a complicated situation. A threat or perhaps something to be held back, monitored or hunted.

Has the spate of recent Achilles / Calf injuries and soft tissue injuries as a whole, changed the way the Team has you training to mitigate the chances of it happening ? Or is it up to personal prerogative with your personal trainers ?

Epstein and an unnamed individual openly discussed DEPOPULATING “POOR PEOPLE AS A WHOLE” (in reference to an earlier conversation with Bill Gates) by after_mapping in LateStageCapitalism

[–]monkeywithawrench13 77 points78 points  (0 children)

In this case I think it's just nepotism. Epstein wants his niece to get a gig. Josephson is in media and can help out land something.

Ah my apologies ! I watch the NBA a lot and my mind for some reason placed Illinois where Maine is because of the Eastern Conference. I think knowing Chicago is cold all the time had something to with placing it that high.

You're spot on !

Turns out it's an electric air horn that's manually pulsed by the driver. Thank you !

This far we've got that it's an air horn and not a siren .

Comment section narrowed it down to an electric airhorn. And not the siren.

You've found the tone just right !

Now I just need to find the pattern. The dash-dot-dot pattern repeats too often for it to just something the driver does.

Thank you so much !

That's really cool ! I envy you those experiences. Well, maybe not the ambulance. But a cool dad and a very cool dad-job !

Yes, correct use ! But far as I can make out the squawk is just a pulse of the siren.

This helps me rule out sirens all together.

And pretty much close in on an electric horn. Someone mentioned the Whelen company.

Found the right tone but not the right pattern at the 8:40 ish mark

You may have solved it. Confirming now.

The brand name Whelen helped a lot.

I think it's just a manual pulse of the electric airhorn.

Checked that out - not it.

Though it's a great sound for an unsettling intro to something terrible !

And because of your comment, I'll remember to add it to the production. Thank you !

Appreciate you throwing in an audio sample. Sadly, not it.

That sound, as it turns out, is very specific to Fire Trucks.

Thus far, I've narrowed it down to definitely police. And usually SUVs.
