  • This is the type of stuff a Union can get you. The Police Unions in the US are the single greatest advertising for unions and collective bargaining on the planet. Everything you can think of to complain about the double standard with police, comes back to union negotiated requirements.

    The reasoning behind the whole suspension with pay stuff is essentially to not punish officers who are falsely accused while investigations are under way. Let that sink in for a minute as you think about everyone arrested for a crime and waiting months or years for trials…

    Police officers are falsely accused of things all the time. There are also a ton that are correctly accused and end up receiving no punishment. The two are not mutually exclusive.










  • in order to do that we need to give them enough senators for constitutional amendments.

    It’s a bit more complicated than that. Senators only affect 1/4th of the process.

    To propose amendments, two-thirds of both houses of Congress can vote to propose an amendment, or two-thirds of the state legislatures can ask Congress to call a national convention to propose amendments.

    To ratify those amendments, three-fourths of the state legislatures must approve them, or ratifying conventions in three-fourths of the states must approve them.


  • All of my self-hosted systems are on a TrueNAS system and using the built-in app system (basically docker). It notifies me when they’re needing updates, and has a single click update process for everything. I just login weekly to see if the button is yellow, then check on it like 15 minutes later to see if anything failed to update. Yeah they’re all on the same hardware, which is probably bad, but nothing there is strictly necessary, it’s all just media stuff and for fun.

    The one service that is separate is Pangolin on a DigitalOcean droplet. I just handle that manually when it says there’s an update. Still effectively just docker, but no easy button.

    I could automate these more, but I would spend more time setting it up than I would save since it only takes me a couple minutes maybe once a week.
