How many legitimate calls did the "street savvy" cop ignore?

The issue isn't with responding, it's that cops love shooting and are poorly trained.

His tweets are as trustworthy as Trump's.
Re:Maker's schedule, Manager's schedule (2009) on Saturday June 24, 2023 @04:34AM (#36456744)
I don't think I've ever had an intense meeting but the last thing any of them does is ruin my day.

My usual response is to not even remember what was discussed minutes after it's over.

But I also think most of the meetings I take part in are useless.

So when these models start learning from more and more AI generated content, can we assume they'll get worse again and eventually make themselves useless?
The tedious parts are automated.
I've been having this problem on desktop browsers running in incognito mode for a while.

It'll randomly pretend I'm not logged in.

Refreshing works sometimes, sometimes it doesn't.

Re:Quad9’s Opinion of the Recent Court Ruling in Leipzig on Wednesday May 17, 2023 @04:23AM (#35972575)
Welcome to Germany.
As an avid redditor I can say it's already like that and they will teach it nothing of value unless they limit it to a very low number of subreddits, which will still barely teach it anything of value unless the goal is teaching it current generation humor and shitposting habits, which would be very valuable to anyone wanting to boost engagement and try to sway a fairly left leaning generation of people toward whatever they're selling.

Which is today's right-wing billionaires and their pet politicians.

That sounds a lot like that delicious regulatory capture that giant companies like very much.

Very reminiscent of the soma FM station where they have music over an SF police scanner.

That's exactly my point.

Only if you're a natural person.

Oh, so it's just a fee.

If wages had risen appropriately then people wouldn't have trouble paying the kinds of prices necessary to keep small places like the ones you're talking about running.
I'm not resisting, I think.
It's a Snapchat filter for videos.
What are you referring to?

But finding and better understanding its value to society is precisely what the funding is needed for.
If popular athletes making lots of money is "even more troubling" to you, your priorities are messed up.

Re:Twitter to ban unlabelled parody accounts on Monday November 07, 2022 @04:59AM (#33503738)
Labeled parody accounts are already being banned.
Why didn't you rate the seller on their profile page? Doing it on the product page makes as little sense as removing stars for bad packaging on there.

You're talking about a car and you have no idea what happened to it.
This depends on the exact circumstances of how your career was ended.

Re:So You Want to Compete with Steam (2018) on Thursday September 22, 2022 @06:19AM (#32936926)
Steam was the first store implementing the 2 hour limit.

And for GOG not to have a limit on playtime makes sense, since (unless you use Galaxy), they have no way of knowing how much you've played a game.

Re:BlueJ – A Lightweight Java IDE on Thursday September 15, 2022 @05:49AM (#32849413)
Same experience in university. I had no prior programming experience and the professor insisting on the use of BlueJ caused me to repeat that course because I did not get the concept of object oriented programming at all.

The following year I got a different prof who used Eclipse and things started making sense.

So it's really just IRC mode?
