Among the contributing factors to the Grenfell Tower fire: US company Arconic deliberately selling building materials they knew were substandard for the task.
I'm actually curious if their subsidiary that provided the materials knew they were going to be used for a public housing building. Could be a case of "it's for poor people, fuck em".

CW for some stuff in the history portion of the video (vikings had some fucked up rituals). He warns you tho before that detail.

Things like border patrols & the War on Drugs actually make the rewards for drug trafficking much higher, contrary to what US politicians who scream about "securing the border" would have the public think.
Recent example: two San Diego CBP agents were arrested and charged with working with a cartel on the other side of the border. The scheme alleged as described had them waving through designated vehicles in exchange for a cut of the profits. Of course, 
not exactly being known for their smarts, they publicly balled out on the money way beyond what their paychecks could explain instead of trying to hide it.

Forcing dogs to be cops is cruel in itself btw.

PulseAudio DBus support is odd.
imagine taking a bus to a friend's house. their house doesn't have a door to knock on or a bell to ring. they expect you to note down their GPS address, go back to your house and then send drones directly to that GPS location and landing it on the roof. that's how they prefer communicating.
PulseAudio is that friend.

in reply to George Takei π³οΈβπππ½ • • •That seems high compensation for just standing there. I wouldn't think you'd make more than minimum wage doing that. So 5 minutes might get you half a candy bar at the grocery store. If you're in a gas station I wouldn't even look at that whole isle. Would have to be a low cost area too because candy bars are like $2 now and 5 minutes only gets you 60 cents.
Or are people expecting to make more waiting in line than the cashier struggling to keep it moving?
