tl;dw: Sam Hyde was going to have an Adult Swim show similar to Tim and Eric. Heidecker felt threatened and got Hyde's show cancelled before it even started.

BTW the average cop makes 69 K in GA, and the average teacher makes 39K.

I'd much rather teach kids than have to deal with the shit cops deal with lol.

Sounds like TC didn't read up on the actual ruling because no, you cannot just go to Walmart now and pick up a Glock and carry it in your sockband

Actually, I can here in Arizona.

No, it's not. Have you never been in NYC's subway? Would you pull a gun in a crowd?

If someone was trying to shove me onto the subway tracks or attack me for being Asian, you're God damn right I would.

But wait! There's more!

Amazon now testing drone delivery:

Amazon picks California town as first to receive drone deliveries

June 13 (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O)said on Monday that customers in Lockeford, California would be among the first to receive drone deliveries later this year.

This would be the first time Amazon makes drone deliveries to the public, and it follows several pilots and mission-specific programs from companies such as Walmart Inc (WMT.N), United Parcel Service Inc (UPS.N) and FedEx Corp (FDX.N) .

The online retailer said it was working with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and city officials for permits.

The drones will have the capability to fly beyond-line-of-sight (BLOS) and will be programmed to drop parcels in the backyards of customers in Lockeford, which has a population of about 4,000 people...

Pulling a gun in the subway is a great way to shoot someone that isn't your target.

It's also a great way to shoot someone who wants to shove you onto the subway tracks.

Big news from Amazon, as the Seattle company announced they have their first autonomous mobile robot, and it has a name. Proteus.

According to Amazon, Proteus is pretty talented and can safely navigate around human employees, which is a definite step up from earlier iterations of a robot that they had to keep locked up in a cage.

Proteus robots apparently have advanced safety, perception, and navigation technology which keeps them from running over humans who may cross their path.

Okay, so they have what appears to be a functional robot whom the company doesnt have to worry about calling in sick or raiding the petty cash drawer. But there are some downfalls, specifically labor concerns for Amazon. The company had to announce that they were not building robots in order to hire fewer humans.

Heres a quote from the head of Amazons robotics division to Forges. Replacing people with machines is just fallacy.

Okay. Not exactly reassuring for warehouse workers hoping to keep their job a long time.

There could be lots of robots on the Amazon payroll, as more appear to be on the drawing board. According to a story in the Verge, the company is trying to perfect a root that can deliver containers to workers instead of having them risk serious back injuries by breeding or climbing to reach items.

Warehouse workers are reportedly injured at twice the national average...

How much did that cost you

They're $7 each on drop, but some of them were selling in the secondary market for like $2-$3. They drop them in blind box format with a chance at different variant covers. I mostly just want a set of the commons to read them and for the cover art. I have some of the other variant covers too.

Where I live in NY is actually pretty fucking safe(not counting a lot of drug addicts who don't (and shouldn't) have guns.

And what about those in NY who aren't as privileged as you and live in dangerous areas or have to commute through dangerous areas? What about all those subway attacks and attacks on Asians that we see almost on a weekly basis now in New York?

Also, if you live in California, Chicago, Detroit, Portland, Seattle, Baltimore, etc., will you conceal carry now?

We keep hearing about all these subway attacks and other attacks on the streets in NYC. Will you be conceal carrying now that SCOTUS says you can?

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/europe-may-shift-back-coal-russia-turns-down-gas-flows-2022-06-20/

FRANKFURT/MILAN, June 20 (Reuters) - Europe's biggest Russian gas buyers raced to find alternative fuel supplies on Monday and could burn more coal to cope with reduced gas flows from Russia that threaten an energy crisis in winter if stores are not refilled.

Germany, Italy, Austria and the Netherlands have all signalled that coal-fired power plants could help see the continent through a crisis that has sent gas prices surging and added to the challenge facing policymakers battling infThe Dutch government said on Monday it would remove a cap on production at coal-fired energy plants and will activate the first phase of an energy crisis plan. read more

Denmark has also initiated the first step of an emergency gas plan due to the Russian supply uncertainty.

Italy moved closer to declaring a state of alert on energy after oil company Eni (ENI.MI) said it was told by Russia's Gazprom (GAZP.MM) that it would receive only part of its request for gas supplies on Monday.

Germany, which has also experienced lower Russian flows, has announced its latest plan to boost gas storage levels and said it could restart coal-fired power plants that it had aimed to phase out.

"That is painful, but it is a sheer necessity in this situation to reduce gas consumption," said Economy Minister Robert Habeck, a member of the Green party that has pushed for a faster exit from coal, which produces more greenhouse gases.

"But if we don't do it, then we run the risk that the storage facilities will not be full enough at the end of the year towards the winter season. And then we are blackmailable on a political level," he said.

Russia on Monday repeated its earlier criticism that Europe had only itself to blame after the West imposed sanctions in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, a gas transit route to Europe as well as a major wheat exporter.

The Dutch front-month gas contract , the European benchmark, was trading around 124 euros ($130) per megawatt hour (MWh) on Monday, down from this year's peak of 335 euros but still up more than 300% on its level a year ago.

FILLING INVENTORIES SLOWLY
Markus Krebber, CEO of Germany's largest power producer RWE (RWEG.DE), said power prices could take three to five years to fall back to lower levels.

Russian gas flows to Germany through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, the main route supplying Europe's biggest economy, were still running at about 40% of capacity on Monday, even though they had edged up from the start of last week.

Ukraine said its pipelines could help to fill any gap in supply via Nord Stream 1. Moscow has previously said it could not pump more through the pipelines that Ukraine has not already shut off.

Eni and German utility Uniper (UN01.DE) were among European companies that said they were receiving less than contracted Russian gas volumes, although Europe's gas inventories are still filling - albeit more slowly.

They were about 54% full on Monday against a European Union target of 80% by October and 90% by November.

Germany's economy ministry said bringing back coal-fired power plants could add up to 10 gigawatts of capacity in case gas supply hit critical levels. A law related to the move goes to the upper house of parliament on July 8.

Alongside a shift back to coal, the latest German measures include an auction system to encourage industry to consume less gas, and financial help for Germany's gas market operator, via state lender KfW (KFW.UL), to fill gas storage faster.

RWE said on Monday it could prolong the operation of three 300 megawatt (MW) brown coal power plants if needed....

I wonder if subway attacks will go down now that law abiding citizens will be able to conceal carry in New York.
