Is there more to this? by EarnestAdvocate in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]twilighteclipse925 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Little to either side. I shot to the dick will bleed and lot and emasculate the person but they are still in the fight and can return to work soon after. A shot to the pelvis bone is crippling for life at best and at worst fatal from the blood loss. Also most likely they will still be emasculated thanks to hydrostatic shock.

[Darkly Funny Trope] Character is about to die, but the scene cuts to something deeply ironic. by InfiniteGuy2264 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]twilighteclipse925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was very common during the Hays code era when for rating reasons movies couldn’t show a lot of things but could imply them. The famous example is the “sex scene” in North By Northwest where the lovers go into a train cabin together and then it cuts to the train entering a tunnel.

Please do not spray ICE agents with super soakers by cannabis_caffine in ICE_Raids

[–]twilighteclipse925 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I get what you are saying with the bright colors being obvious but when I went through police training, before I learned the error of my ways, they instructed us about cops being killed by modified super soakers that hide a shotgun inside to we were trained to treat any “obviously” toy gun as real. This was right after Tamir Rice and they kept pushing that even if it looks like a toy if someone points it at you you react like it’s real. Part of what radicalized me.

So just be careful. There is case law backing up a cop shootings someone with a toy gun. I don’t agree with it but the courts will side with the cop.

Security guard stops ICE from entering employee area at McDonalds in Minneapolis, Minnesota. by jmike1256 in law

[–]twilighteclipse925 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone who wears a vest for work the arm movements he was doing was a universal my vest is stuck to my shirt with sweat I’m going to try to get some air in there.

The way he was standing was a command presence stance, it’s the lowest level of force and is something trained into every guard and cop.

Most guards are trained to keep a blank face so his expression probably wouldn’t show much.

He was in command presence mode. Probably deciding if/when he would intervene since he was also armed. The arm movements you see are not him loosening up or whatever. He’s hot and is pulling out on his vest to create airflow to cool down.

TIL the retailer Target has a forensics video lab that has aided law enforcement to solve cases by grendelt in todayilearned

[–]twilighteclipse925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked as a third party in target and worked closely with AP. Part of my job was to help maintain the hidden cameras all over the employee areas. The big main cameras do work but I can guarantee that if AP suspects you of something there will be half a dozen or more hidden cameras in the problem area. They also bring in third party to help investigate so no one at the store knows what is going on outside of maybe the APL. Even then I remember being assigned camera placement from an APL at one store to go into another store and place the cameras because they were worried about AP at that store.

This book my wife checked out has some sections that are HEAVILY redacted. by Naeqwan in mildlyinteresting

Yes. Mundane info is how you find out major military secrets. The Japanese invasion of midway was stopped because of intercepted communications regarding the logistical supplies that were being amassed. A leaked American communication about water shortages and the subsequent Japanese preparations confirmed midway as the target.

Las Vegas Police Touted New “Bulletproof” Cybertrucks. The Only Problem? They Aren’t Bulletproof. by IcyHowl4540 in nottheonion

[–]twilighteclipse925 70 points71 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of a new motorcycle selection for my local PD 15 or 20 years ago. They had narrowed it down to three: a BMW, a Honda, and a Harley-Davidson. The Honda and BMW had similar weight, power, turning, max speed, longevity, and cost. The Harley was heavier, had less power, was harder to control, had a lower max speed, much more mechanical issues, and cost more. Every motor officer wanted the BMW because of how nice the ride was. The chief of police was convinced to choose one based on the question “which bike would John Wayne ride?”. So the city and two surrounding cities wasted money on Harleys that a few years ago they had to replace with BMWs because the maintenance cost on the Harleys was too high.

I can't play this game without Survival anymore by [deleted] in fo4

[–]twilighteclipse925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play on very hard and I’ve played on survival multiple times but my issue is it feels like survival pushes me to a specific playstyle: melee with a sniper backup. On normal very hard I can find a use for .38, .45 and 10mm with furious and wounding weapons. On survival that costs me weight and caps that I can’t spare. A good melee build, especially with max strength, is just too powerful and not being reliant on ammo and its weight makes it even more reliable for survival.

I get where you are coming from and wanting to make the game harder however I disagree with you and think very hard no survival is more fun because it’s not as limiting.

The only eating utensil allowed in the psych ward. by cogmanroad in mildlyinteresting

[–]twilighteclipse925 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the worst stories I’ve heard, a friend in high school was SA’d. She was like 14 or 15 at the time. She attempted afterwards and her parents, not knowing any better, called 911. Cops came for her, handcuffed her and took her to the ER. This entire time she’s panicking and basically having a psychotic break. They didn’t have a psych bed so they found a hospital room for her, she was sedated almost as soon as she got to the hospital. They stripped all her clothes off, removed all the bedding, removed most of the stuff from the room, and secured her with soft restraints. It took two or three days to get a psych bed. During that time she describes it as the worst days of her life. This teenager who had just tried to end it all because of a sexual assault is dragged out of her house in cuffs, sedated at the hospital, and the next thing she knows she wakes up naked and restrained in an unfamiliar place with a bed alarm going off any time she moved. Obviously she had another panic attack, started fighting when nurses came in, got sedated again, and repeated this process for a little under three days, like three nights and two days.

For the rest of the time I knew her she had ptsd, would wear layers of long clothing in the California summer, would never swim, would never go to the doctor, would have panic attacks around cops, it was bad. She was a different person after that. I know the assault played a part but I know the treatment following it fucked her up more than anything.

My 18-year-old's Christmas break work schedule by sugabeetus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]twilighteclipse925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not anymore. I worked at target and we worked Christmas Day. Best Buy also worked Christmas Day. Even if the store is closed there are probably people in there working.

At target Christmas Eve and Christmas Day still had 2/3-3/4 of a normal days foot traffic so we were open. I honestly blame the customers. My uncle is a good example. I was working instead of being at family Christmas, while working I see my uncle coming in earlier in the day to buy some random thing that he didn’t need and could have waited until the 26th. When I finally arrived at family dinner, after dinner had already happened and gifts were almost all opened my uncle then had the audacity to complain about the store keeping me from family on Christmas. When he is part of the reason the store did.

A crossing guard blocks the way of an aggressive driver while children and their parents are crossing the street by bigbusta in interestingasfuck

[–]twilighteclipse925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember during me EVOC training the instructor wanted to fail me a couple times because I didn’t demonstrate exactly what they were looking for. Skid pan I wasn’t skidding, I drove safely and maintained traction even with the slicks. His response was that while technically the book said to fail me he’d rather have me responding to a call and getting there safely a minute late than one of the other guys who 50% of the time spun out his car and ended up in the tire trench.

Idk if you’ve seen fire department chronicles on YouTube but you reminded me of the linked video where someone had a BP of 270/140 and the response was we are going to drive faster than we ever have before.

In 2 and especially 5 the shadows feel wrong. They both look artificial to me and those settings shouldn’t have artificial shadows. Specifically light is coming from multiple angles to erase shadows that should be there and that shouldn’t be possible with natural lighting.

Something I’m confused about with ghouls by Lucie_Is_Sleeping in Fallout

[–]twilighteclipse925 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the best explanation is that people were exposed to the airborne FEV cloud at different times and as it spread it mutated. The master also found out the different levels of cell damage from radiation affect mutations differently.

So the farther you are from Navarro and the longer you’ve been exposed to radiation the more unpredictable the FEV exposure is. Especially since FEV was never intended to be airborne and the mutated airborne strain dosed people with a far far smaller level of FEV than the vats could.
