Trying to find honest work, it's not so easy. I had a fellow give me $200 about a week ago which was really nice. Was able to get my phone turned on and eat a couple of real meals. I'm back down to $5, about to go dumpster diving for my next meal. Happy to provide any proof to my claims you might want, or check my profile. I been documenting my adventures there.

After generously receiving some cash from Mike so I can survive the next couple of days, I'm still finding myself with nothing to do during the day. Would love to help out someone in the community who needs something done. Got a strong back and experience moving, dirty jobs, light electrical and plumbing, building fences, that kind of stuff if you've got the tools. I'm terrified of heights so tree trimming is probably the only thing I won't even attempt. $10/hr I'm yours.

Just got let out of jail with nothing but a half charged phone and my ID. I don't have a home to go back to now. Need $50 to get my phone turned back on. willing to walk anywhere in town. I can do hard work.

Edit: THANK YOU MIKE. Dude just found me under the bridge and gave me $200

If you get out of town and away from the lights you can see the start of the Perseid meteor shower. It's going to be going on until the 13th. I thought it was UFOs at first. Its really beautiful now that I know it's not aliens.

With all the talk about Flock safety right now, I'd like to collectively address all the people saying "So what" with a local tragedy that was enabled by flock cameras that people seem to have forgotten.

If the officers would have been forced to do even a little bit of investigative legwork instead of being able to just ask an AI where Daniel was, they would have discovered that he didn't really do any of the things he was being accused of. If you make a cop's job trivially easy in a way that encourages cutting corners, they'll stop taking it seriously and when a cop isn't taking their job seriously people die. That's been proven right here in our city. Its the same story with the fire chief incident; laziness driven incompetence is a real problem among our officers and flock safety is demonstrably enabling that behavior.

Listening to the house of the rising sun on youtube and it just hit me that this classic song from the 60's has a period-correct original music video with it and it's got me wondering; why? Film was expensive as balls back then and there wasn't really a practical distribution method. Old variety shows are the only possible answer I can think of.

What us this? I have never encountered this before. The implication is that an AI decided that this post was evil and needed to be deleted (It wasn't) with zero human review. This was not the moderators of the sub, this was not a reddit admin manually removing it, apparently, they used a word or phrase that pissed off an AI and now its gone.

Is my assumption correct? Or has reddit just decided to change the message you get when you get admin-deleted?

About 5 years ago I found a fresh roadkill deer and I had a friend who was struggling to feed his dogs so I called fish and wildlife and they texted me a salvage permit for it within 5 minutes and the nice lady on the phone told me that they had a physical map with a bunch of push pins in it where people had reported roadkill and somehow that was extremely useful data for them. Now every time I see them, I call it in.

Would you appreciate a member of the public like me? Or am I just taking up their valuable time?

It's called "glance AI" and it's a prepackaged unremovable app on all Motorola smartphones. Until a recent update you could disable it but since an update a few weeks ago it keeps re-enabling itself.

Occasionally, and I mean like 1/20, this stupid app that is holding my lock screen hostage will play a full volume video ad. I just got one for Chime. Can't even unlock my phone without seeing an ad. What the fuck?

A friend of mine who is a very mechanically talented is talking about completely removing the belt driven compressor from his charger, replacing it with an electric compressor from an EV, moving it out of the engine bay to make room for other ridiculous mods and beefing up the alternator. A side effect of this mod is that if one were to add a storage battery grid to this setup and run the AC off the storage battery grid, wouldn't that be ideal for a camper van? His entire budget is less than the cost of a roof AC, not even including installation. What would be wrong with doing this same mod to my van? (he's willing to help)
