Previous thread - last few posts:

"Records show that the police investigation was centered around a "trap house" more than 10 miles from Taylor's apartment, and that a judge had approved a "no-knock" search warrant, meaning officers did not have to identify themselves, according to The Courier-Journal." No knock warrants should be banned in all municipalities, IMO. I understand the desire of the police to keep people from destroying evidence, but they will continue to lead to these kind of incidents if allowed to stand. Sadly, reading this story reminds me a lot of Kathryn Johnston. I'm sure there are plenty of others people who've lost their lives around the country that others could point out.

Rolling Scones?

TMP allegedly never got a proper edit due to effects shots not being done in time, so the original version of the film (as opposed to the us tv premire longest, or Ray Wise's director's cut) has some pacing issues. My biggest problem is that, in making Face the person 'running' the mission, they made Hannibal superfluous.

Ys VIII is set on an island (the main characters are ship wrecked), but it is a fantasy game. Character design isn't realistic/highly stylized.

Into Darkness is the only one I've seen once. I plan on rewatching all the movies, so will see it again but it really didn't work for me on my one viewing. But then again I love TMP... 😳

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild? (or are we PC only for this list)? Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana?

I'm looking forward to watching Star Trek Discovery when I get through rewatching TNG for the first time since it aired in first run syndication. I've expressed my opinion of modern Trek vs Roddenberry's intention here before, but even though I think Trek has been irrevocably changed (in better and worse ways), I think there's still room to enjoy the series and movies.

Most police departments that I am aware of have rigorous screening processes to screen out hotheads or people who want a license to be a thug. The bigger problem (IMO) with police is the increasing fetishistic militarization going on in police departments combined with the traditional institutionalizing that the workforce endures (and also creates and fosters in itself in some cases) that develops an "us vs them" perception of police work. This is furthered by the fact that most police don't live where they police, which helps to dehumanize the population where they do police. And indeed it is also furthered by the fact that the collective common sense of humanity is lower than ever, as are critical thinking skills, which combine to make bad judgement de rigueur instead of anomalistic.

Battle Beyond the Stars wasnt Star Wars but it was a fun riff on THE SEVEN SAMURAI, but in Space (with Robert Vaughan playing more or less the same character he played in that other THE SEVEN SAMURAI remake, THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN...)

There's logistical reasons why parties were useful. But the parties are also an impediment, imo, to elected officials representing their constituents.

If you can't have a partiless system, than the more parties the better.

Ben Franklin, wasn't it?

You need to contact obsidian support then; while possible a dev will see your thread here, this is mostly peer to peer help. https://support.obsidian.net/contact

Have you tried going to the vault or to the treasure chest area and back? That sometimes would clear up issues in the past.

Seatbelt laws as well, IIRC.

I don't know if our organization has security issues or if its a cost issue given that they already have licenses to other tools.

We can't use Zoom either, but a vendor used WebEx to show us how to do something virtually the way they'd approve us to do it with the ability to extrapolate that to our preferred platform (in this case it'd be WebEx).

My favorite MS Teams meeting was the one that was a live demonstration of how to do something in Zoom. EDIT: Wait strike that, it was a WebEx to show us how to use Zoom.

Clancy Brown was the voice of Lex Luthor in SUPERMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES

You do realize those are all actors who played Lex Luthor...?

But...aren't most people taught at government run schools, so wouldn't trusting the history teacher's version of events be to trust the governments? 🤔
