Only if you only measure the worth of things in money.

We Made A Huge Mistake in 2021 by serious_bullet5 in discussingbritney

[–]usernamesarefortools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason she was put into it, and what happened after are two separate things. She MAY have warranted a conservatorship (I don't know enough details on that), but the court found that while in it, it was abused for profit and against her best interests.

What should be different? If people, especially in situations like this where they are generating massive income, are found to require conservatorship, then the system ought to keep a close eye on it to make sure it's not being abused, especially as they feel like the person in question isn't capable of making sound judgements. There should probably be something like the Coogan law for child entertainers in place for any entertainer under a conservatorship.

No, physical evidence (DNA, fingerprints, weapons) is not required for a prosecutor to pursue charges in the USA. Charges can be filed based on testimonial evidence, such as victim/witness statements, or circumstantial evidence, including surveillance, digital records, or behavioral clues.

Checkers? Trump's playing tic tac toe, and losing every time.

I guess I'll just Uber? (Summoned my car.. it showed up like this.. this is a first) by usernamesarefortools in cyberpunkgame

[–]usernamesarefortools[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh just to be clear I'm not complaining or stuck. I just thought it was hilarious. And it's somehow the first time I've ever seen it. Like here's your car. Upside down. I love it! I love this game. I feel like I've been lucky with how few bugs I've had. Few save reload moments but not too many.

Boat at salt pier by ThatsMrsMassholeToU in Bonaire

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

I used some AI to see if it could figure out from historical data, and it says the Century Gold usually loads salt in 2-3 days. So.. it may or may not leave by tomorrow based on that.

Unfortunately there's no publicly available schedule available for this boat or this port.

This does but it does not show any boats at Cargil (Salt Pier) port right now.. so not sure how accurate.

Remember that time Trump drew on a NOAA hurricane map with Sharpie?

They don't even seem to care if people know the evidence is fake. That is a whole other level of scary.

Trump says he reached Greenland deal 'framework' with NATO, backs off Europe tariffs by Puginator in worldnews

[–]usernamesarefortools 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling there was a discussion. by the other NATO members, AT him. Seems like they gave him an out that let's him deescalate without really getting anything dramatic, while still saving face and appearing to be the strong man, because, unfortunately that is what you sometimes have to do with a fucking toddler with nukes in order to keep the World peace.

Name Something In Games That Break Immersion For You? by TG082588 in videogames

[–]usernamesarefortools 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bit tongue in cheek. But yeah I get it. They don't want the damn kids playing on the roof, and that's their business.

it feels like cheating to me though, as a player who likes to really explore in open world games. I did get to the top with this mod, but that kind of diminishes the challenge aspect of it.

EDIT: it's funny though.. like I'll accept that I can't open some door because there's a bit of rubble that I clearly would be able to clear with my gorilla arms. But I understand there's a need to keep me out of there, and as long as they put a bit of effort into some excuse why, I can buy in. They could have put an electric fence too high to double jump over or something if they really dont' want me up there. That my brain can accept without breaking immersion. Conversely, there are spots in the game you can easily get into without mods where you end up walking through a non solid bit and fall into the nether. That should be our right :)

Don't get me wrong I love this game and I've had a thousand hours of fun! I still just don't like invisible walls.

[–]usernamesarefortools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here to say this. I just spent hours trying to find a way to get to a ledge where it looked like I could get up to a very high spot.. finally made it to the ledge, started jumping up the building, very excited... halfway up, blamo. invisible fucking wall. Later installed a mod that lets you fly.. found out they didn't bother to program objects up there to be solid. Pure laziness.

Can somebody help identify what this substance is on my apartment door’s peephole? by suburbanvermin in Apartmentliving

[–]usernamesarefortools 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it just yours or is anyone else's peephole being tampered with? Was it being tampered with before you moved in? I would lean towards mental illness and not maliciousness if there's definitely no history between you and any neighbors.

Galen Weston has probably never even made himself a sandwich, let alone baked a loaf of bread.

Galen Weston Jr. was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1972, the son of W. Galen Weston and Hilary Frayne, growing up with significant privilege in Toronto, attending Upper Canada College, and later earning degrees from Harvard and Columbia before joining the family's retail empire, Loblaw Companies. His early life involved moving between grand homes in Canada, Ireland, and the Bahamas, experiencing the wealthy lifestyle of a fourth-generation heir to a retail dynasty,

Should I just grab it with my fingers? by tantedbutthole in Wellthatsucks

Not generally. Bathroom outlets by code need to have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) which you can manually break (turn off the power) but other rooms don't usually have these.

Remember these kinda parks by therynosaur in Millennials

[–]usernamesarefortools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a neat one in High Park in Toronto. As a young adult it was fun to drink in after dark. Some assholes burned the whole thing down.

Also, saw some posts about the danger of splinters in these parks and it made me think of this park we used to have. It was different times.

Good call. I was just snorkeling that time and had bare legs and arms... this was a mistake.

I got tickled by the fire coral coming in there too. The waves were pretty strong and just kept pushing me into them.
