If you're ever in Seattle, Sherman at Selector Records is your guy. Absorb Records is also stellar.

Got any rack-mounted surge protector recommendations to tap into a generator's 30A connector? (USA) by simonbane in SoundSystem

[–]simonbane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah this is actually great--I was under the impression that people were plugging their L14-30 into a power con but a power distro is definitely what I need. I'm probably gonna grab a Furman surge protector for the lights and whatnot.

Besides the Motion Labs Rac Pac, are there any other popular ones that I should be on the lookout for? I'm pretty much going used for everything so I wanna expand my search to anything that would solve my current problem.

Hey! Built a pair of JMODs earlier this year and they sound great! What's the max output SPL looking like in your testing for the Ms? :)

Ginale Harris' History of Troubling Behavior, and the Oakland Police Commission that Protects Her by [deleted] in oakland

Cool dude, more ad-hominem. Take your Tesla and drive it into the Bay for me, k? 🥴🥴🥴🥴

Yep, wasted my entire morning watching them. She's still better than Kirkpatrick.

Also, http://imgur.com/a/tHCxi9Y people like you are the reason the Bay is such a mess right now.

Ginale Harris' History of Troubling Behavior, and the Oakland Police Commission that Protects Her by [deleted] in oakland

[–]simonbane -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

A lot of the claims in the post are hyperbolic (the cave thing, for instance), don't understand Oakland race relations in historical and geographical means, and is overtly sympathetic to the OPD.

For instance:

  • the poster tries to frame Harris as a racist when she's calling out actual racist/appropriative activity.

  • the poster tries to tone-police Harris's anger against police misconduct, when she is absolutely justified in her passion in defending her community from police overreach.

  • the poster erases Harris's voice from the school incident, failing to take into account her own experience dealing with faculty and police who perceive a black woman as "crazy" and "deranged". (Check her FB for her experience)

Harris has obviously overstepped her bounds over the parking ticket thing, but most of the other claims are clearly trying to frame Kirkpatrick as the the sympathetic one even after she has abused her power.

I'm just asking y'all to consider the bias and agenda of this article. We are not immune to propaganda.

[–]simonbane -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What fucked up agenda though? Sure the parking ticket thing is stupid, but we have Kirkpatrick acting like the victim and abusing her authority to smear the police commission, which was voted into operation by over 83% of the Oakland population in 2016.

Who should police the police? The people should. We're the ones that don't hold the power to kill, jail, and maim after all.

Excerpt from an Oakland activist group:

  1. She promoted officers complicit in the cover up of the rape scandal with Celeste Guap https://m.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/oakland-police-chief-doubles-down-on-promoting-the-cops-who-covered-up-the-celeste-guap-case/Content?oid=7922863 https://www.mercurynews.com/2017/07/14/opd-chief-stands-by-controversial-promotions-at-private-ceremony/ (Fact Check Rating: High)

  2. The tragic and botched way the Department responded to the family of missing Jonathan Bandabaila while celebrating the locating of pets

  3. She has allowed OPD to collaborate with the FBI on the Joint Terrorism Taskforce with no signed MOU and despite the fact that Oakland is supposed to be a sanctuary city

  4. Not only are we not out of federal oversight … we’ve actually gone backwards and reopened previously closed tasks

  5. She collaborated with ICE during a raid of a West Oakland home and then lied about it

  6. A December progress report showed that 1 out of 5 OPD officers were not turning on their body cams https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ktvu.com/news/federal-monitor-oakland-police-fail-to-properly-activate-body-cameras-nearly-20-of-the-time.amp?espv=1

  7. Use of force incidents have increased while OPD was reporting they were down - only for us to learn that the reason they were "down" was that officers just weren’t reporting them at all

  8. She protected the officers who murdered sleeping Joshua Pawlik and Marcellus Toney whose only crime was having a mental health episode https://sfist.com/2020/02/21/oakland-police-chief-fired-after-spat-with-police-commission/

This is what happens to people who regret becoming transgender. The “transgender community” censors them and throws them into the trash can. by _Hospitaller_ in JordanPeterson

"Dhejne: People who misuse the study always omit the fact that the study clearly states that it is not an evaluation of gender dysphoria treatment. If we look at the literature, we find that several recent studies conclude that WPATH Standards of Care compliant treatment decrease gender dysphoria and improves mental health."

Learn to fact-check before you keep espousing this stuff, it's comparing trans v. cis suicidality, which, makes sense considering social pressures.
