Best case scenario is all of this just unceremoniously goes away since all normal, decent patriots have to do is post the guys picture and his Trump donation record any time they try to bring it up again.

That's not exactly clear, given there was another person with the same name who owned a home in the same city at the time. IMO more likely that it came from that person than the 17yo, but who knows.

What were they doing right before that happened?

Barely pulling his hands away as the officer tried to put him in cuffs, with no aggressive behavior before then.

But back to the point, even that "safer" move still has a lot of potential to fuck someone up. And back to the topic at hand, to me was wholly unnecessary to de-escalate the situation.

Then 14 on the bonus but it took away the share score details on the bonus for me for some reason?

I've never seen the share option for the bonus level.

SwayM posted...

They dont care about these details.

Or with those details fully in mind, I've seen a local cop put someone in the hospital with fucking brain damage using the exact same move.

The kid is a little shit who deserved to be physically restrained, but that was done the moment the much larger officer wrapped him up from behind. The suplex was 100% excessive and could have fucking crippled him.

NEW CHALLENGE ALERT

The "Play it where it lies" or PIWIL challenge.

Rules:

1) You cannot reset the ball. You have to play it where it lies. If the ball falls all the way down at the last shot, tough titties.
2) You cannot intentionally play into water to reset the ball. If it happens it via a legit shot then that's fine.
3) You have to wait until the ball stops moving. idk if yall have noticed you can kind of abuse the ball from falling off ledges if you act quickly. So none of that.

Well, you can already turn on "kinda infuriating" mode which basically enforces #1 and #2 - checkpoints are disabled, so water is the only way to "reset" and that will send you back to the very beginning.

Got a Subaru Solterra last year and love it. I'd imagine it's not particularly high on value as far as features/range/performance vs price, but Subarus have always treated me well, and my location kinda limits the options (just have a handful of the major legacy brands here and lack of access to certified service for basically anything else) and makes it pretty much perfect for my needs.

Absolutely not! And I didnt say that. Just pointing out that mail-in voting has its issues too.

The solution is to have a society in which everyone is safe and valued.

Do you think mail-in voting should be changed in some way to reduce the likelihood of that? I'm not really sure why you bring up that hypothetical if not making some sort of argument against the process.

It's something that might affect a minuscule percent of votes, and wouldn't be eliminated by getting rid of mail-in voting.

Feel great about this one for a first run

The shot from checkpoint 4 to the floating platform, no problem. From there to checkpoint 5? Don't know why that gave me so much trouble.

No? The new season premiers November 26th.

How very "America first" of him. Most of us Alaskans already oppose (or are at least mixed on) opening up more land to drilling, mining, etc. for our gain because of environmental concerns; destroying our land for Putin's sake is some real bullshit.

Dad was 5'7, and at 5'10 I'm about as tall as anyone ever got on his side of the family.

First runs today: 30 on the main, 49 on the bonus - with I believe 19 of those being on the final shot, lol.

Matched the average (20) on my 4th run. 2nd run on the bonus dropped to 29.

Holy cow. Came back for one random run and pulled out a much better one:

At the dealership I work for, I once found some decades-old paperwork from the previous owners taking his parents to small claims court in the 90s, lol.

Those ranking are from the 2018-2019 season before she started hormone therapy in May 2019.

The 2018-19 season includes events both before and after she started hormone therapy.

The 2018-19 NCAA championships, for example, were in Feb/March 2019. That's where she posted the highly-ranked times.

The 2018-19 USA Swimming summer championships were in July/August 2019. That appears to be where those lower ranked times come from.

That'd be nice - but the prospect of her knocking off Sullivan for a senate seat would be cooler.

Thankfully the efforts to repeal ranked-choice have failed, and Juneau is actually considering switching to it for local elections.

Hah, listening to Bill's latest podcast brought me back to this topic. Too Many Puppies has actually been popping up on my Spotify a lot lately.

Primus sucks!

Just on where I stand and can project for myself, I could probably get there by retirement age. Assuming I outlive my mom, though, it's basically 100%; heard enough from her after my dad passed to be quite sure of that.

Got through quicker than I expected on some of those shots in the middle, then "made" the last shot just long enough to get credit before it rolled into the water.

I'll come back to the bonus later... was crusing pretty well, one shot away from the last checkpoint at like 15, then made a stupid shot that sent me back. Another 15+ shots later of not getting back up there just frustrated me too much, lol.

Hadn't noticed the kinda infuriating mode before - I feel like this is one of the few levels where I'd have the patience for it, lol. Actually did much better than my first normal run:

Instead of the constant jokes and rage, why not discuss ways to help?

Things are getting bad and many people would rather focus on jokes. It's a bit sad honestly. Before I get the "people can focus on more than one thing", I want to remind you: I rarely see ways to help on this board. Small site or not: being stuck in this kind of echo chamber isn't healthy. Plus the very few protest/organizing/similar topics are generally ignored.

Are you looking for ways to help get Trump off the roof?

Yep. And it used to remember that, but now I have to change it from 1x every day.

That felt very familiar, especially the ending. Are they repeating? Or maybe there is not enough variety in the layouts and it's already feeling too "samey" for me.

The end section of the 8/4 bonus level today is definitely the same as (or at least very nearly identical to) another pretty recent one.

I liked this one, lol. Those long vertical shots with fairly safe landings are one of the few types I'm really comfortable with.

Well, I did the first few checkpoints a good half dozen times before this, but kept having the Return to Checkpoint button completely stop working. Finally got it working as normal and had a solid run.

Ugh... then was having a great start to the bonus level, but again the Return button stops working :(
Ooh, if anyone else runs into this issue... opening the menu in the upper left then clicking Return to Checkpoint with that open gets it working again.

Having a lot of issues with responsiveness from the game today for some reason. "Return to checkpoint" button and the zoom button just not doing anything when tapped. Will try again later.

There really needs to be a easy mode so everyone can enjoy the game. People who disagree are cringe and treating this like a dick measuring contest.

34 on the bonus - the middle section between the 3rd and 4th checkpoints gave me more trouble than anything else, when I probably could have done it in 2 or 3 short shots a lot quicker.

I recently tried to play it, but the controls felt very janky and I didn't have the patience to see if I could push past that.

Notice the stroke count is the same. Not sure what you did differently.

Your original phrasing sounded like you were saying that you could tap the ball around on the checkpoint area without using any strokes. I'm sure everyone already knew about "Return to Checkpoint," and using that when you're already at that checkpoint doesn't necessarily improve your lie.

CRON posted...

Here's a tip a lot of you probably already know: if the ball is about to roll off of a platform, there's a very small window of time where you can make an additional hit to save it.

lol yes, this one has saved me a couple times. Including a few days ago where my final shot counted to beat the level just before it rolled off into the water in the background.

Ugh, really struggled with the final shot - 35
And both the final shot and the one about halfway through the bonus - 40

19 today
34 on the bonus. My final shot stayed on just long enough to count, then fell in the water in the background, lol.

Article in the OP has been updated:

"At approximately 8 p.m. Pacific on Sunday (0300 GMT on Monday), Alaska Airlines experienced an IT outage that's impacting our operations. We requested a temporary, system-wide ground stop for Alaska and Horizon Air flights," Alaska said in an emailed statement to Reuters on Sunday evening.

The news of Alaska's IT issues comes at a time when tech companies Google and Palo Alto Networks have warned of the "Scattered Spider" hacking group's interest in the aviation sector.
Canada's WestJet Airlines was struck by an unspecified cyber incident in June, while Australia's Qantas (QAN.AX) experienced a data breach in July where a cyber hacker accessed the personal information of millions of customers.
It remains unclear whether Alaska's outage is related to Microsoft stating on Sunday that there were "active attacks" on its server software used by government agencies and businesses.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/alaska-airlines-requests-ground-stop-all-mainline-aircraft-faa-website-shows-2025-07-21/

July 20 (Reuters) - Alaska Airlines (ALK.N) has requested for a ground stop for all its mainline aircraft, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) status page showed on Sunday.
The company also requested for ground stops of all Horizon Air flights, the regional subsidiary operating Alaska Airlines flights.
The FAA status page showed all destinations being impacted by the ground stop of Alaska's mainline aircraft, and Horizon's ground stop.
Alaska Air Group maintains an operational fleet of 238 Boeing 737 aircraft, and 87 Embraer 175 aircraft, according to its website.

No reason given yet, but on their website they just say they're having IT issues.

25 on main
27 on the bonus... and probably 15+ of those were on the final shot, lol

There is a speech by one of the characters near the end of Season 2 that is directly aimed at Trump and MAGA. There is no other way to interpret it.

I believe the head writer has said that this was pretty well all written years ago and based on how the slide into fascism typically goes. They didn't intend for the shoe to fit so well for the current administration, they just happen to also... look like a duck and quack like a duck (or perhaps a goose?).

People fawn over it because it's really damn well made television.
