The death of the touring car, and even the sedan really sucks. We need more large 4 door cars that can fit four adults comfortably with reasonable trunk space. My first car was an old Chrysler LHS and it’s still the most comfortable car I ever drove.

That was one of the last old people brands, especially with the vinyl top.

There used to be semi regular Posts tracking posts and monthly active users. You might be able to find them. Over the past couple years, there’s been a consistent flat to negative trend in activity, the general consensus to this wasn’t concern, some were even happy.

That’s all Lemmy has is meme and shit posting, and even those are getting slower.

Lemmy is shrinking significantly since the boom of the reddit appocalypse. It’s a problem a lot of people here like to ignore or pretend it’s not a problem.

Prices are starting to go down in slower markets. Even just holding steady is good news for buyers as the high inflation makes that price more affordable in the long term. Interest rates might make the decrease irrelevant though if they go higher, as that takes away a lot of buying power.

There already is a blood spot test for rare but serious diseases that states do. It depends on the state though for a specific list of what gets tested.

To be fair there wasn’t really any evidence. The guard claimed it was a contraband search for a hat the inmate was wearing, but the guard followed the guy back to his cell from a separate building and never actually found the contraband. The guard claimed the inmate destroyed everything after the search. There weren’t any witnesses, and any camera footage that could have proved anything was not retained by the prison.

It’s clear to anyone that remotely understands how prisoners are treated that this was clearly a guard abusing their power, but privileged white women don’t have to face that reality.

I’ve been selected three times for jury duty. Two were county and one was federal. As far as pay went, county payed awful, it was less than minimum wage. Federal paid a bit better, and I got mileage to the courthouse, I also had to front the parking cost and be reimbursed later.

The first time I was on a criminal trial for rape of a mentally handicapped woman, I was kicked off that jury during selection. The second time I had to go in one day, but all the cases for the day ended up settling, so they sent us back home. The third time was a civil case for a prisoner who had his stuff destroyed by one of the guards, I was part of the jury and we couldn’t reach a verdict because some people couldn’t believe a guard would just do bad things.

Disease requires mass concentration of people which was less common in America. They did transfer syphilis to Europe though.

Another problem with the sequel trilogy is the few things they did try to explore were already done better by the existing films. The other trilogies really hammered home the flaws of the Jedi order. Rich people play both sides, just like the Lando.

That’s also the color copper burns, but for all the flames to look like that would require a lot of copper mixed in the gas or something disintegrating in the supply line.

We have recorded evidence of primates fighting wars… We don’t recognize animal hierarchy as states, but the analogs are there.

The top 20 appears to be play time, but it would be nice if it was ever really mentioned.

This compact is extremely unlikely to ever be enforceable. The ensuing court cases would make 2000 seem minor.

The only time he pointed his gun at them was after they pursued him. One of them also had a gun pointed at him. He attempted to retreat which means the attackers were in the wrong.

Being present there was legal. You can think the choice is stupid, but being stupid isn’t a crime.

Kyle Rittenhouse is probably the most textbook definition of self defense there has been. There was some good lawyering to get around the age issue, but at the same time I’m not sure I want someone facing a felony because they aren’t 21. That doesn’t change anything on the ACAB front.

Both things can be true. Bring guns and posters of him to protests. Make it difficult for anyone supporting ICE.
