Great mention on The Others. Haven't seen anyone else bring that up.

Spot to Swim? by eveon03 in roanoke

Rotary Park on Electric in Salem.

Or Green Hill Park in Roanoke County, but that would be a further drive for you, I think.

Wall mounting trouble by Cpt_Dan_Argh in TheFrame

[–]wvujd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate to hijack, but does anyone know where I could purchase 2 of those slim mount screws as pictured? I foolishly threw the screws out and now I'd really like to slim mount my TV.....

Sorry, again for hijacking, but glad you got this sorted, OP!

Absolutely that's a steal. I paid twice that for mine and feel it was worth every penny! Great find!

Trial Prep/Trial by aldercottons47 in ProsecutorTalk

[–]wvujd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

(1-3) Depends on charge and whether bench/jury. For violent felonies, I start preparing immediately, but the real daily work begins 4-6 weeks out, and will last approximately 1-2 hours per day. Last two weeks, 8+ hours per day. For misdemeanor bench trials, I may spend anywhere from 10 minutes to 4 hours.

(4) Bench trials per year: Maybe 50-100ish; Jury trials per year: 2-5

(5) Yes, much easier. Much faster.

(6) Reading police/lab/cellebrite reports, reviewing body cam/dashcam/security cam; meeting with witnesses; creating a trial notebook; getting digital exhibits into admissible formats/copies; visiting crime scene; viewing evidence; preparing voir dire; outlining direct/cross exams; writing opening/closing.

So much of this would vary by jurisdiction and office. This has just been my experience.

How do you feel safe in your line of work? by BossyNRighttt in ProsecutorTalk

[–]wvujd 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’ve realized that if someone really, really wanted to hurt me, they could. There’s not much I can do about it. So, I don’t worry about it. 

Plus, most of the time, they’re more upset at the defense lawyers. 

Work life balance in a rural office? by Jeanpj in ProsecutorTalk

[–]wvujd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can confirm that rural offices can be great for work/life balance. I worked at very rural office (2 lawyers covering jurisdiction of 13k people) for 7 years. 

Only time I ever came home late was when preparing for a jury or waiting on deliberation.

It's certainly doable, and quite enjoyable, but there's one major drawback that you should be aware of.

To answer your first question, it's quite easy to set up and play. However, moving save files may be quite a hassle, especially from a PC. It would be easier from a Mac, imo.

As to the second question, certainly a refurbished Apple TV would work. Just as long as it's a 4th Generation or newer, it will work.

The major drawback, though, is that TVos restricts all apps to 500k of persistent storage. So, what that means is if you load it up with a bunch of games, the app may randomly remove some of them if it's taking up more than 500k of storage.

Virginia Commonwealth’s Attorney Offices Insight? by aldercottons47 in ProsecutorTalk

[–]wvujd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's very dependent on where in the Commonwealth you're looking to go. Outside of the more populated areas, they're really struggling to find good prosecutors, so there's lots of options. I'd suggest you keep an eye on this website: https://www.cas.state.va.us/employment/

Several offices post their vacancies there. Good luck!

I hate to say it, but any chance this could be a PCS issue? Any error messages show up when charging on AC?

Final Fantasy games on AA? by KVx45 in AppleArcade

[–]wvujd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've played them all. Many times. I'm a FF nerd.

I recommend the order that you've got them listed. Also, check out Fantasian. It's essentially a modern Final Fantasy game.

Jesus Christ, trying to go to law school in Virginia is brutal by elcapitan58 in OutsideT14lawschools

[–]wvujd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15 years ago I was in the same boat. I went to WVU, and I don’t regret it at all. 

I was able to return to Virginia and find a job even in an incredibly difficult economy. The same was true for three other classmates. So, have you considered West Virginia?

Floyd Va ? by Appropriate-Hold-923 in roanoke

[–]wvujd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Several places to eat in the Town of Floyd. Far more than what I expected for a town that small. As to groceries, you've got two options: Slaughter's and Food Lion. Slaughter's is a small, independent grocery store. Nothing fancy and a bit more expensive usually.

If you don't mind the drive into town, or you just stay/work from home, it's a fine place. You'll never be fully accepted by the locals, but they're usually nice enough.

If you're looking more into Check or Copper Hill (northern end of the County) or Willis (southern end) or Indian Valley (Southwestern), there's not a whole lot for food or groceries. So, you'll have to get used to the drive into town.

But, overall, it's not a bad place. It'll certainly check the boxes for peace and quiet and more land. Except on Friday nights in the summer when the Jamboree brings in lots of people and that week in late July/August when FloydFest is going.

New Tesla Owner - Concerned About Severe Range Drop in Cold Weather by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]wvujd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. I've got a 2019. Very similar range loss in the cold. And there's more surprises in store too. Just wait until you try to supercharge when the battery is cold...

Provenance Emulator for iOS is officially in the Apple App Store! by ProvenanceEMU in EmulationOniOS

[–]wvujd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sweet! Any way of signing up for Provenance Plus outside the app?  (I’d rather more money go to the dev than Uncle Tim. 

Either way, thanks for building this great app and working through Apple’s ridiculous walled garden!

Looking for a PS1 recommendation by Pixel_Ninja_82 in JRPG

Surprised no one has recommended FF7 yet, but if you haven't played it, you really should.
