Wow, great job, you save him from suicide... by killing him... 🤦‍♂️

Hall was born Chen Zhi Bo (Chinese: 陈志波) on October 31, 2001, in Shanghai, China. Shortly after his first birthday, he was adopted by Gareth J. Hall and Fe Hall, who are of African and Latino and Filipino descent respectively. He had his name officially changed to Christian Joseph Hall. As a child, he was diagnosed with reactive attachment disorder and later depression.

On December 30, 2020, Hall was dropped off at his workplace at a convenience store by his mother. He walked to an overpass of Pennsylvania Route 33 above Interstate 80 near mile marker 302A, and at 1:30 p.m., Hall called emergency services to report a "suicider", resulting in the arrival of police. Footage of the scene showed him pacing around and clutching what appears to be a gun. Initial reports said Hall placed it on the ground after being ordered to do so, and began negotiating with the officers, but soon picked it up again. Around 1:38 p.m., Hall was shot seven times by the troopers.

He was taken to the Lehigh Valley Hospital-Pocono in East Stroudsburg, where he later died from his injuries.

Initial reports from authorities stated that when the officers told Hall to put the gun on the ground, he complied, but at one point during negotiations, he picked up the gun and pointed it in the direction of the police, causing them to shoot him. A video of the incident with evidence contradicting the claims surfaced in February 2021. The video shows Hall raising his hands before he is shot and falls.

According to his family, Hall reported that he had been experiencing a mental health problem. Fe Hall told WNEP-TV, "He needed help. He was looking for help, but instead of getting help, he was killed in cold blood by those who were supposed to help him." Civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump also stated that Hall was in need of help and seemed to be contemplating suicide.

Also, I think my mom would've read this story and be like: "Is this what you want your future to be?"

Like... the fuck? You think I chose depression? Jesus christ...

Also: I wanna comment on the adoption thing...

Dude must've have an identity crisis lol... I mean I as an ethnic Chinese still have my Bio-parents and I already sort of have an identity crisis for being so young when I arrived in the US...

Him having different ethnicity parents must be extremely confusing coupled with the adoption thing, and being in a white majority country and facing perpetual foreigner stereotype and racism while simultaneously having zero connections to your ancestral culture...

I've just completed moving lemmy.ca and piefed.ca away from using Cloudflare's proxy service, this means traffic now comes directly from our server instead of being routed through any US based companies. Pixelfed.ca is still on deflect.ca for the moment.

Let me know please if you run into any problems or errors!

Note that in order to avoid making too many major changes at once, our DNS is still hosted by cloudflare. I'll be moving that away from them later this week

Zhuhai Fisher Girl is a granite statue in Zhuhai, China, designed by Pan He and completed between 1979 and 1982. Standing 8.7 metres (29 ft) tall in Xianglu Bay and weighing about 10 tonnes, the statue is of a fisherwoman holding a pearl high in the air, inspired by a local legend recorded in various versions. Commissioned during the development of the Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, the statue was cited by supporters as enabling the city to establish its own cultural identity, though its cost and depiction sparked some controversy at the time. Since its installation, it has become part of Zhuhai's growing tourism industry. Zhuhai Fisher Girl was designated a cultural relic in 2014, and later plans have proposed expanding the surrounding area into a larger recreational and tourist site. This photograph of the statue was taken in 2024, with part of the Zhuhai skyline in the background.

In an otherwise great book, so much of it is filler content about how many suns there are. I don't care about that personally and find it distracting. By feeding the trilogy into ChatGPT, I was able to streamline it and reduce the plotline to one sun- ours for simplicity's sake. Now there are over 40% fewer words.

HUNDREDS of protesters demanded the US keep its hands off Cuba at a protest outside the country’s embassy in London today.

Anti-imperialist groups staged the mass unity protest to highlight opposition to ongoing conflict in the Middle East and restrictions against Cuba and oppose recent escalations in “US-zionist aggression” worldwide.

The protest was timed for the same weekend that the Nuestra America international humanitarian aid convoy was set to arrive on the shores of Cuba.

Samsung, SK Hynix, and TSMC depend on oil, gas, helium, sulphur, and bromine coming from the region, or through the Strait of Hormuz.

Marko Papic, chief strategist at BCA Research ... predicts a severe hit to chip production if the strait isn’t back in operation within a month.

Could mean higher PC component prices, or even a halt in production. Could mean global recession.

WORKERS at the start of their careers in often insecure roles deserve the “right to switch off” outside of work hours, the TUC’s Young Workers’ Conference heard on Saturday.

Union representatives from all industries unanimously supported a motion to protect young people from having to respond to messages from their boss or go online outside of work hours.
