Used to work at a coroners office and the activity I saw on the sign out sheets for each persons autopsy file made me change my status from donor to not. The donor organizations (God bless them) just moved way too quick and came off as too thirsty for my taste. Not to mention (not that people would care) you look like a baseball the way you’re stitched after.

Incredible comment. I have always used a radar detector and Waze to speed pretty much whenever I want. Despite increasing attempts by state legislature to stop my speeding, I just learn more countermeasures. Keep in mind I’m talking about driving 85-90 on a 70mph straight interstate (i70) not flying thru a neighborhood

Moreover, the coming generation of cops don’t see speeding the same way older cops do, so yes you can’t speed, but in my state cops are rarely sitting in medians and doing enforcement (and definitely not going thru all the trouble to hide in the trees and risk their life to pull out on a highway), post Covid and with the new gen of cops it’s very noticeable. Savvy speeders know this, and the cops that are there are marked on Waze or are going to be detected by radar otherwise.

The rules are unwritten. Like you said, but beyond that - You can use signals intel (radar) and intel (Waze) in combo with situational awareness to avoid most situations where you’d get caught (most of the time) the decision to make this calculated risk and rely on your skills and equipment lets you avoid the law. Stuff like this happens with regulations all over I imagine

What’s your setup for fixed wing? I am trying to build a fixed wing that has a nice dji camera and good range but I’m not sure if it’s possible

There’s an app called song shift that works 90% well. It’ll transfer the music over from one service to another. Also you can export Apple songs to CSV using desktop iTunes

It locks our future knowledge to current biases and possibilities.

Another issue I see based on your comment is that segmenting based on locale (diverse mix in SF, white majority in Kansas) is that it can just take what knowledge and norms exist now and harden them.

It often does include such deliberations, if you watch state legislative committee videos on YouTube. If it doesn’t, often times a citizen is free to testify and raise the issue.

Many of these small clause discussions go on around amendments.

There is less deliberation on policies (rules) and regulations (how an agency decides to implement a passed law). There is deliberation of course but it is more opaque to the public and less record is made.

Whether it’s easy to do effectively by the public is another thing.

Can you give us a product list? I’d like to build a similar set up. What kind of cameras and what software are you running? Great setup

It’s not just you. That site is not consistent with any other US gov design language. It also looks cheap and like a QAnon conspiracy news site.

I used to work for a state agency and there was a truck that delivered office supplies called "$STATE Correctional Enterprises", all the office furniture was made by prisoners. I didnt have a problem with that to be honest because the cost savings were benefiting the taxpayer in theory. I have also looked at many prisons on google maps and you will see tons of blue collar businesses (Cintas, Pitt Ohio etc.) within the perimeter road of the complex.

Addicted youth do have more unmet healthcare needs than youth without addiction.

Anecdotally: cardiologist, inpatient rehab, dental work, maintenance medication, labs/blood work, mental health meds/counseling, ER visits and ambulance rides, and more.

These are things that non-addict young people do not usually need unless they’re big athletes or suffer from serious trauma.

Having access to these things also improves the likelihood of a full recovery from addiction (IMO).
