  • /me playing platformers and yelling at my controller for fucking up realizing it's normally just me... until you find out OH HEY my B butting IS actually starting to stick. It is my fucking controller again!

    Buy's his 6th controller in 6 years

    Seriously the the amount of stick drift, flick reverse, and sticky buttons controllers are allowed to have nowadays is ridiculous. I've dropped decent cash on higher end pads too and they still suck. PowerA Blue wired is where it's at.

  • /me watches some dude post hateful contrarian bullshit on a light hearted comic.

    "It's not even funny and this shit comic comic has been done before. Quit self promoting on reddit bitch!

    Edit: Why am I being down voted!? Fuck you know it's true! Mods temp banned me apparently. I don't care I'm never going to block her so I can always down vote!"

    Somehow everyone who commented on his parent comment has every comment in their profile down voted for the last 50 comments...

  • wasn’t really a great indicator if your opinion was popular or not, it was more if it got that groups niche.

    ... That's called popular opinion lol.

    Of course it matters where you say something. It's literally no different than IRL.

  • 200,000,000,000 / 200,000 = 1 million homes.

    There are about 140 million homes in the USA.

    You have 2.5 people per home in the USA.

    You would essentially be able to buy everyone living in Chicago or Houston their own home per population.

    Chicago, IL (Population: 2,670,406)
    Houston, TX (Population: 2,378,146)

  • FWIW, a speedy trial is mostly bullshit and negated now through Amendment 14 due to Due Process. There's a lot of jargon when it applies to this shit though but the highlights are below. Most people waive their right to a speedy trial due to evidence collection, finding a jury that's unbiased, and so many other things. Particularly for high profile cases.

    Length of delay. The Court did not explicitly rule that any absolute time limit applies. However, it gave the example that the delay for "ordinary street crime is considerably less than for a serious, complex conspiracy charge."

    Reason for the delay. The prosecution may not excessively delay the trial for its own advantage, but a trial may be delayed to secure the presence of an absent witness or other practical considerations (e.g., change of venue).

    Time and manner in which the defendant has asserted his right. If a defendant agrees to the delay when it works to his own benefit, he cannot later claim he has been unduly delayed.

    Degree of prejudice to the defendant which the delay has caused.

  • ... this is me with excel files for random bookkeeping shit lol. Everyone's are so ugly... but I'm making these look nice for all of like... 3 different people that use them lol. So at least when I have to do these random tasks twice a year... they look nice! Even if the old stuff worked or doing it by hand with a legal pad was sufficient... I gotta have that Excel column auto sum damn it!

    ADHD is a bitch sometimes.

  • My condolences on your pop.

    Regarding leaving behind biohazard... You'd be surprised that the vast majority of first responders aren't trained for it and are liable if they try. Yes, it's kinda crazy and varies heavily by state.

    First responders of any kind aren't trained for the cordiality or technical aspects of cleaning up biohazard scenes. It's very common. They're trained for patient care and that's it. They leave messes behind. They won't wash blood off your sidewalk. It's like walking into a personal nightmare for most people. Trained EMTs and paramedics are supposed to keep their PPE bagged and taken out with them, but if things get hectic, which is why they're there in the first place, stuff gets overlooked. Someone below already mentioned that it would've gotten shoved away to make room and it just gets forgot since it's not visible anymore

    The fact of the matter is that they're there to triage and get them to the hospital, not tidy up after attempting to save someone's life.

    The situation is macabre but it's a common one. A lot of people have felt that same weird surprise going back to where there loved one was to just find it a mess. There's no laws about them needing to clean. It's not the first time it's been brought up though.

    If you're in the right state of mind you can call the nonemergency county line and ask if they have cleanup services for first responder scenes... the vast majority don't though. Those that do usually take a day or more to get there.

    9/10 times it's family doing all of it.

    I work pretty closely with just about every type of first responder in my line of work just to qualify this a bit... I've had to deal with this same issue in my personal life and professional. It's the same just about everywhere from what I know.

    EDIT: I did forget to say that those cleanup services are usually going to cost YOU out of pocket. Some states or counties subsidize them though...

    Also minor grammar/clarifications.

  • For those wondering the whole "That Largely feature photos in the public domain." is literally just rage bait so people click. That's the entire point of public domain. Anyone can use and profit from them lmfao.

    The actual headline should read. "Donald Trump suspected of money laundering $5.75 million through his book publisher."

    Unfortunately it's Forbes. So it's partly paywalled and basically useless for sharing lol.

  • Was about to say Whaaat? You want me to not be able to afford McDonalds or regular groceries now? Fruit and vegetables both are expensive as fuck when you have a couple kids.

    Bananas are about the only thing that's still dirt cheap lol. Eggs have finally gone down. How about subsidize the good food too while enacting carbon taxes on meat.
