I vaguely recall a similar approach to detecting law enforcement by scanning for BT signals from common law enforcement BT devices. I don’t recall if they were body cameras or communications equipment or something else, though. Sound familiar to anyone?

I have little to no interest in going to a movie theater. Not just now, but very likely ever again.

I just don’t see the appeal—the crowds are so consistently awful, unless you wait until a given movie’s theatrical run is almost done and no one else is there. But by then, sometimes the movie is already in streaming and I can watch at home.

I CAN be convinced to support business models which seem innovative, however.

For instance, theaters have offered different ticket prices for both age (children/seniors) and time of day (matinees). I would ENTHUSIASTICALLY support a theater which innovated on those points.

For instance, keep early movies cheap for kids. However, retain special “child” pricing throughout the day. I would love to see ticket pricing for children increase by lower ages and later times.

Take a 2-year old to an 11a movie? 5-bucks.

Take a 2-year old to a 9p movie? 500-bucks.

Also, usher enforcement of etiquette should become more aggressive. I wouldn’t mind a police detail enforcing that shit…just be clear with the tickets.

You want a police detail enforcing a ”quiet” theater—buy that ticket and pay the higher price.

You want a cheaper ticket and watch with a bunch of people playing on their phones and talking, go cheap and don’t complain.

Some people love the theater—it’s big, it’s loud, it’s fun. If you like it, go for it. In my opinion, anyone with even a modestly decent modern TV and sound system can wait a bit to catch their movie on streaming and always have a better experience.

Sometimes when browsing the “All” feed, I will come across a post and recognize that I definitely do not want to see posts from its community in the future.

It would be nice if “Block Community” was added as an option from the “more” (…) button in each post of the feed view.

Unless I am missing a simpler way to block a community from the feed view which doesn’t involve navigating to the community feed in question and then choosing “block community” from there…

I love the idea of a bunch of woodland creatures (completely unaware of what mirrors are) investing heavily—and aggressively—in mirrors and mirror-related technology.

The anatomical proportions of the patient are hilarious.

Though, I would say the physical therapist appears to be enjoying her work.

This reads like it never even went to trial. The article says a jury “failed to indict” and the man was “never charged”.

I’m assuming it was a grand jury and somehow a bare majority or jurors couldn’t find cause to charge the man (who—at minimum—pointed a gun at his daughter’s chest and pulled the trigger) with any crime whatsoever.

Not a single charge or trial?

How?

Anyone know for sure who Salvatore Nuara is?

There is an article to read…

 

West Bank Palestinians spend time with Conan.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The truck also had one of those “don’t tread on me” decals, if it helps narrow it down.
