hobbesmaster posted:Yeah number of items is always a problematic measure. I remember seeing some crazy number for a local department once and actually dug into it and it was a fuckton of k9 safety equipment adding to the numbers. The objection is to requesting one tank, saying “sure we’ll eventually run through a conex full of doggles “ is exactly the idea behind the program. Maybe only let fire departments use the program or something. It's like you see a news article "Man arrested with FIVE THOUSAND ROUNDS of ammunition" Like, if anyone owns a 22 they've probably got that just in their range bag.

Did they copy oracles api for their own software or did they just use the api oracle published for accessing oracles software?

Lake of Methane posted:I also just wanted to say gently caress Oracle and recall that the software with a convoluted and confusing workflow that resulted in Citibank inadvertently sending $500 million out to Revlon creditors was another Oracle gem, "Flexcube." Reminder that Oracle was contracted by the state of oregon to write the healthcare marketplace for the state, and the project cost over $200 million, never worked, and caused a whole bunch of lawsuits.

RFC2324 posted:Considering I had someone with a GEWNS tag(which requires an SA account) That is not really the case anymore. A lot of active SA posters who play Eve who are in the imperium have gone to alt corps or other member corps. Which means the number of people with GEWNS tags who aren't actual SA posters but are directors or something that needs them to be in Goonfleet proper is a higher ratio than it used to be.

bulletsponge13 posted:2- we are far enough removed from my war that sharing details shocks people. Casually answering questions like "How many concussions?" With "Do you want physical blows only, or blast overpressure, too?" I don't think I can even give a count. MazelTovCocktail posted:But also braces are gross and you should SBR stuff...barring state law issues. The “ghost guns” will probably just make 80% frames FFL items, but I’m not sure that can even be done as an executive action and it probably is related a rules making process same with 80% stuff. The 80% number itself is effectively an ATF number they picked. Pretty sure they can just EO that dial down to 0% to effectively ban 80% lowers.

Hyrax Attack! posted:Whoa nice. Bob Hoskins was perfect for that role. Interesting to see their other casting options, Harrison Ford might have been ok but Chevy Chase no way. Robin Williams would have been fun, dunno about Bill Murray. He's great but not sure if non-stop sarcasm would have worked if he was bouncing off the rabbit instead of Egon. As much as I love williams I don't think he could possibly play the straight man in a loony toons adventure.

Yea, who would ever think that Ride the Lightning is a euphemism for being killed by the state? It's not like there was a 6x platinum album of the name with the title track about being murdered by the state. Edit: And it was confirmed by the very cop when he said "you should be" in response to the victim saying he's afraid to get out.

Best Friends posted:Based on what reasonable, even good Marines I knew would start posting on Facebook once they became cops, every year more sadistic and antagonistic to common society, I don't think training is the problem. Culturally cops see themselves as an occupying force on hostile streets, protectors of a decadent and unworthy public.The only solution is weakening the institution overall, shifting cop money into other avenues. From a diminished state they might fix themselves or might not, but they can at least do less harm. My own city has pumped huge amounts of money and training on our cops, and they're worse and more contemptuous of the pubic than ever. There is no "the" problem. There are many problems, some dependent on other problems for their existence, some not. Training cops to see every person around them as a target and to treat them as such is "A" problem.

Eason the Fifth posted:Serious question: Is it standard procedure for police to keep their firearms in condition 0 when they're working? It seems like having to actually chamber a round would be a good way to prevent a) uncool things like negligent discharges, and b) loving killing somebody with the wrong goddamn weapon. This is the same class of gun users who had department armorers replacing trigger springs to 12 loving pounds. And they were still NDing into their legs/suspects/cars. The only way to have a cop be safe with a firearm is to remove the firearm from the cop.

Crab Dad posted:it would be a wild waste of funds to actually fire them into the sun. It's cheaper to yeet them out of the solar system then to fire them into the sun. We're already orbiting at a bit more than half of the escape velocity of the sun, so it would take more delta v to cancel that movement than to just keep going the way we already are and join Voyager.

SchnorkIes posted:Any time you are saying you're ok with something being criminalized, realize you're saying it merits summary execution in the US. Cool story. Anyway my point, which I feel really loving weird having to point out, is that using your turn signal does not belong in the list of things one does with a car that is not a safety issue. It belongs in the list of things which are safety issues. Because using your turn signal to signal you are turning is a safety thing. It's not on the same list as things like, for example, just out of my rear end, not having your license plate light working, or having an "obstructed" license plate, or having expired tags. Those are not safety issues. Safety issues, for example, would be things like not using your turn signal to indicate you are turning or changing lanes. Speeding and weaving through traffic. Using your phone while driving. Driving in the bike lane or on the sidewalk. I hope this has been made sufficiently clear for you.
