Yes. Yes they do.

At least NCIS people had the decency to admit it was intentional

a common ammo manufacturer’s mark

Wait wait, what? So did the alleged shooter actually carve anything into the casings, or was it just the factory markings that fox is trying to spin?

Even if he does walk free, they're going to drag it out as long as they can to make his life hell. Just like they're doing with Luigi.

and then someone uses science to say “there was paper over here; must be where the note went!”

Ah yes, Bones science

Ah, the Joseph Smith defense.

Pundits made an entire career out of pure speculation. I hate watching, listening to, even reading that kind of shit - topic be damned. But especially with topics that genuinely interest me. It's just pointless fluff.

They're no better than youtube channels that post videos about cars....that are completely AI generated. One dude in an automotive discord that I'm in almost fell for one.

Upvoting for honesty.

This is literal toddler-level finger pointing.

[–] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 3 points 17 hours ago

This is toddler shit. Fucking clowns.

I would straight up start busting windows out of any vehicle with trump stickers. But I have a family who needs fed and housed, so I don't.

Yet.

Wow, what fragile egos.

Someone keyed my minivan over the weekend, probably because of some pro-trans/science stickers. Luckily the paint is not a concern of mine (it had rattle-canned sections when I bought it, I knew what I was getting), but still. I pointed it out to my wife, she just quipped "and they call us snowflakes 😂". God I love that woman.

All of this shit makes me want to play dirty now. Preach hate, get hate; and all that.

 

I'm in the process of getting my Home Assistant environment up and running, and decided to run a test: it turns out that my gaming PC (custom 5800X3D/7900XTX build) uses more power just sitting idle, than both of my storage freezers combined.

Background: In addition to some other things, I bought two "Eightree" brand Zigbee-compatible plugs to see how they fare. One is monitoring the power usage of both freezers on a power strip (don't worry, it's a heavy duty strip meant for this), and the other is measuring the usage of my entire desktop setup (including monitors and the HA server itself, a Lenovo M710q).

After monitoring these for a couple days, I decided that I will shut off my PC unless I'm actively using it. It's not a server, but it does have WOL capability, so if I absolutely need to get into it remotely, it won't be an issue.

Pretty fascinating stuff, and now my wife is completely on board as well; she wants to put a plug on her iMac to see what it draws, as she uses it to hold her cross-stitch files and other things.
