It certainly shouldn't be, but I've learned never to assume that there is a law to protect labor from any abuses. Or if there is, that it is practically legally actionable in any way.

"Yes I can hear you, I don't have ear cancer!"

The bottom one about Trevor Lawrence losing $15M on crypto was deleted, the other (about the Uvalde cops being useless), the OP took the account private.

Anyway the Lawrence one was pretty specious because IIRC him taking the money in some cryptocoin was a promotional stunt, I’d be surprised if they didn’t immediately move it to something that is worth actual money. Okung was on the list too, though, and I think he’s a true believer so he might have actually lost the money.

A cop's wife got shot and was bleeding to death, didn't go in.

The Trevor Lawrence one was deleted because it was wrong. He didn’t take his NFL signing bonus in crypto. He had a promotional deal with some crypto company. His signing bonus for that promotional deal was paid in crypto. Who knows if he sold that off or not, but it was nowhere near the dollar amount that tweet had.

If it weren't so deadly serious it would be comical how they keep lying about everything thinking that it won't eventually come out. I know it doesn't work like this but I feel in a just world the answer in court to their attempt to keep body camera footage secret would just be...well look at all the times their version of the story has changed, then it should be free and clear.

The Lawrence story was echoed elsewhere by seemingly trustworthy sources. Oh well.

Uvalde news is fun because we are always seemingly days away from finding out the cops just summarily executed all the kids and buried them in a mass grave.

What a clusterfuck.

I thought my phone was hosed, which I later found out was just because someone cut a Verizon fiber cable in the area, but in those interminable 20 minutes between losing connection and getting home to wifi I decided to replace my S9+ with a Google Pixel 6 Pro.

How could a cop possibly have enough technical knowledge to hack phones? Do local PDs have access to poo poo like PRISM now?

They’re saying hacked when he probably detained a girl, asked for her phone under bullshit pretenses, used face unlock to unlock it, took it back to his car to “search for evidence”, forwarded every lewd photo he could find to himself and started blackmailing her.

Saying he “hacked it” is just cover for every cop that does the same.

He hacked their Snapchat accounts apparently. If you're a cop you can often just ask these tech companies and they'll give you whatever you want no warrant required.

US Cellular went down in the Madison area for like two hours today. I figured it was due to the heat overloading the grid.

We had a cable/internet outage for maintenance the other night that I wasn't aware was going to happen, and an unrelated outage for cellular service at the same time. I was somewhat worried the Russians had launched a cybersecurity attack on the US for an hour or so.

Ymmv but I couldn't get into it because it was kind of rediculous in how heavy handed it was. I tried about 4 eps before I tapped out.

Like a show like the Leftovers had some absolute gut punch moments and a general mood and feel of sadness but hand maid kind of reminded me of a 14 year old writing poetry about darkness.

Some critic called it feminist sadness porn and it was kinda on the money.

So my house I bought the previous owner was a LMPD officer. I was super accommodating and at the signing they talked about moving away but were staying in town for just a little bit while waiting on everything going through properly. He texted me like 2 days after I moved in to pick up some mail and then never heard from him again. But we still get mail even now and it's been 2 years now. It's like he went into deep hiding so anytime stories like this come up, I keep waiting to see if his name shows.
