Later

n August 2012, Wurzelbacher drew criticism for a comment he made about illegal immigration. During a campaign rally for Arizona State Senator Lori Klein, Wurzelbacher said, "For years I've said, you know, put a damn fence on the border, going to Mexico and start shooting."[95]
When asked about the comment later, he said that he didn't care about being "politically incorrect." Klein defended Wurzelbacher, telling reporters his comments were just a joke.[96][97]

Published reaction to Santa Barbara, California, mass shooting

In an open letter to the parents of victims who died in the 2014 Isla Vista killings,[98] Wurzelbacher wrote of his right to "protect my family" stating, "As harsh as this soundsyour dead kids don't trump my Constitutional rights ... We still have the Right to Bear Arms ... Any feelings you have toward my rights being taken away from me, lose those."[99][100][101]

oh you think it's a terrible idea to use a phone that isn't getting security patches anymore?

It's definitely a risk. Wouldn't be surprised if the phone could last a decade with a new battery.

But companies are greedy.

Before 2010. Two cherry Verizon phones. 2006 and 2007. Lost them both in the span of 6 months going to work with slippery dress pants. Didn't bother with phones again until 2010.

Nokia (with a keyboard) 2010-2014
Nokia Lumia 1020 2014-2017
Pixel 2XL October 2017 - November 2022

4 years. Average

My first smart phone was with the Lumia 1019. The camera was nice, but it used the windows store/app and OS, and that was garbage.

Do you how know how many cemen would want to fuck one for free?

Things I like about the reboot

-Lu Kang and Raiden role reversal
-Kung lao being put in the spotlight and cheezing hilariously against the Lin Kuei
-tarkatan being a disease

Things I don't like/really bug me

-Scorpion being Subzero's brother. I don't see any benefit or redemption to this, but I guess we'll have to wait and see
-lightweight Smoke and lin kuei being assholes
-kronika back?

Cinema is dead. Hollywood is dead. Long live family guy cutaways.

I don't think going to the cinema will die anytime soon. Regal, Century and others exist. People are going to the theaters and watching the blockbusters

Nothing can replace high quality picture and sound on a gigantic screen with comfortable seats and with recliners. Heart break had never felt so good.

Hmm I should buy.

Gen 2 was awesome. I owned the third versions for the first 4 generations (skipped 3) only, so I got the refined versions.

Whitney gave me trouble with Miltank. I don't remember Elite 4 being that bad. But it's been a decade since I played HGSS (which iirc has four generations of Pokemon), and Crystal, 10 years before that.

Gen 2 was great for it's time. I honestly don't see any big flaws with HGSS.

I disagree.

I will say that I wish we abolish daylight savings time or have it permanent.

I handwash as I go. I cook every single meal from from scratch due to dietary issues that give me restrictions and pretty much prevent me from eating out. I find it easier to just wash and clean as I go.

What is funny is I hated doing dishes as a kid. It was always a whole sinkful. I vowed when I was "grown up" I would have a dishwasher. When I bought my house I was so happy to have a dishwasher but I only used it a few times and never used it again. I haven't touched it in like 15 years now.

And now you use it to store stuff

I don't know if you're Asian, but it's definitely an Asian thing. Lol. Yeah I like washing by hand too.

Through truth be told, you do save more water using a dish washer.

I don't know shit about cancer. I was under the impression that an overall cure for cancer was borderline impossible because all cancers act differently. Was i understanding that wrong or something?

They announced this almost a year ago. Any updates?

Yes a one cure all for cancer is impossible at this point. The best we could do at the moment is personalized to an individual with cell therapy.

I've never received a summons for jury duty. Maybe it's because I don't drive and don't have a driver's license? Hell if I know.

Even if I get summoned, I have a legit medical reason why I can't sit for an extended period of time so I think I'd get dismissed

Are you pretty young? Nah they could still summon you. If you can take the bus, you can. But if it's too far awa, no reliable means if transportation got school, etc then you're fine.

lilORANG posted...

They don't really care. They mail out hundreds of juror summons in the event the 40 or so they need don't show. Proving you were deliberately ghosting would be hard too bc the summons are not certified mail so they can't really show you got it, unless you were dumb enough to post about it online.

Or if you sign in online.

But I dunno. Wouldn't be surprised how many cases per year people get summoned and fined and actually didn't get it in the mail, or they did not didn't respond.

Ultima_Fury posted...

It would suck so bad if I got selected to be on a jury of a high-profile case. You know, the ones where they have you sequestered. Your phone is confiscated, cant watch the news, confined to your hotel room, and only watch movies that the court approves. All in an effort to not influence your decision and it could go on for weeks.

You're actually not allowed to do any research on any case you get assigned to anyway.

I mean that situation you mentioned takes it up a notch, but it's for your safety.

Arcanine2009 posted...

one thing if you legit didn't get it, then by all means, fight.

Less

That can also count as hardship on my area. If it's too far away, not in your county, no proper transportation means, etc ,that could dismiss you ,where I live at least.

Payzmaykr posted...

Is there a fool-proof lie to get out of it that they cannot catch you on.

You have to take care of someone and they are financially and physically dependent on you. Like your parents.

It counts as a hardship. Do what you will. I genuinely had this.

If you show up, don't come in with a fake wheezing and cough and ask to be dismissed. That's what one guy did today. And he sounded completely fine when he asked, "am I finished now?"

If you are legit sick though, you should be able to get it dismissed/deferred by a few months at least. Even COVID (unless you live on a red state). Just show some proof just in case.

If you also recently just moved, you can be dismissed as well.

The first time I got called in, was 8 years ago. I had a crappy contract job that would not compensate me at all for jury duty. I told the judge that was my financial hardship, and they said too bad not a good excuse. I then said I had to pay my mom's medication and take care of her, which they then dismissed me.

When I went today, the judge I talked to was more lenient. Simply having your job not covering you to be here and you had bills to pay, was financial hardship. They also pay round trip for gas now. Times have gotten better, but my judge was fair. I did also tell them I was the sole provider and has to help my mom out financially--which is true. But I had to get back and see if my job covered compensated.

When I got back, the case was dismissed because the court date wasn't today after all apparently.

Payzmaykr posted...

Because Im thinking about it. They literally want me to go out of town to participate in a trial. I dont know about that

Where do you live (what State, if American), If it's in your county, you have to go. If it's out of county, you either call or show up in person to them you're not eligible.

Don't Ghost. You could get fined or jailed. I get that some people just claim they never got the notice, but it's not worth risking banking on that. Just go if you are called in. Stay there and report financial hardship (if it is.. like you have to pay bills and your employer isn't going to cover you.. especially if it's more than a week).
[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

They do fine you if you are called and you don't show up. They can send you to jail too. That's not false.

Is it really worth the hassle and peace of mind trying to fight it, if you knowingly did get it and you just pretend you never got it? It's one thing if you legit didn't get it, then by all means, fight.

Have you played the first two games? FR closes up the Trilogy and answers most of the questions.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

We don't talk about Brun-Sorbo.

Once I went there and found out how short the trial was, and work would pay for it, I was hoping to be selected.

But I also had that sense of guilt for my coworker.

Welp, my case got dismissed because they got the scheduling for the date wrong for some reason. It's not gonna be today, so I'm relieved from Jury duty for the year.

Payzmaykr posted...

Oh, wow. They want me to BE THERE at 8 am? In another town?

Funny thing is, I never get it near the court near my town (~5 miles away) I've been getting it 25 miles away and not at the next places.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I dunno. You're playing with fire. Why take the risk of being fined or imprisoned when you can respond and have a 50% of getting called in. And once you get called in, there's a good chance you can be dismissed due to financial hardship .

What do you do? Maybe the employees feel overworked when there's one less person around. Of course that's not your problem for scheduling PTO ahead of time anyway. And maybe they were just bad performers as well (the ones who got fired)

I've only been seated on a trial once. The trial was for a man who had sexually abused like 7 different girls ranging from 5 to 11 years old, over several years. The 5 year old was his niece and she was in her early 20's when the trial happened. It was fucked because she confronted him on Facebook and he was saying that she knows she liked it...

He's in jail for the rest of his life. The deliberation lasted less than 5 minutes. Wish I could remember his name though to link an article or something.

Anyway, my jury duty lasted a week and a half for that one and my job paid for my hours. IIRC, if your job doesn't pay you, then the court does. But it's usually an insultingly low amount. So I hope your trial doesn't last long

Wow that's terrible! I'm surprised it didn't end sooner for you.

Thanks.

Ill answer these too, since I went.

At least for Illinois, I received something like $18 per day. It wasnt even enough to pay for my parking in the city (Chicago), let alone gas. They did pay for food, through.

My job has a time off option for jury duty. It is covered like a vacation day, only it doesnt count as a vacation day.

Right. As long as it doesn't eat into your vacation...

I was given like a $30 per diem to cover lunch and dinner.

The trick to getting out of jury duty is to say youre prejudiced against all races and religions.

I know that, but I could never do that.

Getting out of jury duty is not my concern at the moment, as long as I get paid from my work. It would be a hardship if I couldn't. I straight up told the judge today I wasn't sure and had to get back to HR and my boss. I have to get back to him in an hour.

I actually save money by going to jury duty vs going to work. It's also a very short trial .I just felt really bad about leaving my coworkers with work, and hope that I don't get even more work next week when I come back.

I am a little nervous about doing it. It's not gonna be a cake walk.

Speaking about getting out of jury duty. This one dude came in late (around 9.. but that's fine, nobody was called anyway at that time). Dude faked a very obvious loud audible wheezing sound twice, and was told to step aside into the hallway. He then asked on a very normal voice of he was excused from Jury Duty, and they said he would only be deferred by 3 months. Lmao. If he just waited and got in line to argue for hardship. He's get 12 months.

Devilanse333 posted...

I actually served on a jury. A teacher on trial for abusing a student. We found him guilty. It sucked. They pay you s*** while you miss work.

I got summoned a second time. I had no intention of going through it again. It was for a tobacco lawsuit. I filled out the questionaire with over the top answers.

I got a letter saying thanks/no thanks.

Get out of it if you can.

They do pay for your gas, right?

Was it covered with your work? Cause you could have said it's a hardship and not go if they weren't gonna cover your wages.

Bump

Smh

I got called in for Jury Duty today. Has anyone actually went through it all?

My work is weird in the sense that I don't have any days allocated for it (like a week's worth of pay). I can get no deduction in pay as long as I work part of the week.

Luckily I have a short trial that should end by Friday. I have some anxiety about this. First time doing this all the way, and I feel really bad about leaving work for coworkers, and having more work when I come back next week. I also just came back from last week.

I dunno. Yu-Gi-Oh dark duel stories see ed straight forward to me.

It's fun if you have friends and raid with other people, i.e. join a local discord group.

I just read the description of the video.

I had a coworker like that at my current job. Both factors. Grandiose, pathological lying, and manipulation. Sucked at her job, and very hard to train, and blamed others for it. No accountability whatsoever. Almost got fired. She got lucky and got laid off. After the lay off, said her old old workers being incompetent and implying she wasn't. I honestly thought she was a sociopath.

My boss from my last job was narcissistic as hell. Threw people under the bus, brown nosed her boss, sweet to others and nasty to me when others were not around. Wish I reported her. I just feared her.
