I bet a lot of folks have just quietly given up or moved to lemmy or mbin because they’ve gotten frustrated with all the issues.
I guess it’s not quiet once I post this, but I submitted the account deletion request a couple weeks back and spent some time setting my feedly back up after 1 too many spam posts. I’m already getting my scrolling fix from rss feeds again, and this is the first time I’ve been on kbin in a week.
tl;dr: you’re right.

Incognito mode has always been intended for prying eyes using the same browser, and it works fine for that.
Like right after 9/11…
Or the weapons. Have to imagine there’s a pretty wide disparity between the police and average citizens. If Prigozhin/Wagner couldn’t get it done, it’s not exactly a simple task for some politically progressive average folks.
A few seconds past the timestamp I linked:
As good as my memory is, I don’t remember that. But I have a good memory.
So you don’t remember saying you have one of the best memories in the world?
I don’t remember that.
Seems like she didn’t inherit her father’s “perfect memory”.
I got ya. I’m agreeing that he’s a coward and an idiot, but disagreeing that he might not have been trying to murder a guy. He might not have believed it was murder, because of the idiot part…but the video convinced me he was intentionally trying to kill the unarmed man in the back of his car.
At an active threat, sure. When the dude’s been searched, handcuffed, and trapped in the back of a car…there’s some personal responsibility, imo.
Would just be an idiot and a coward trying to kill a man.
You don’t mag dump like that if you don’t care. He very much was trying to kill him.
like we’ve learned absolutely nothing from the experience
We’ve learned a lot, it’s just what we’ve learned is about the nature of our employers and our value to them.
No human would be dumb enough to park there.
There’s at least 3 other cars parked there clearly visible in the videos.
I don’t believe it was, based on the other cars present in the videos.
Seems like the witnesses saw it differently.

“They were putting out some rage for really no reason at all. They just wanted to vandalize something, and they did,” witness Edwin Carungay told KGO-TV.
The witness told the outlet the Waymo was vandalized and set on fire by a big group of people.
“One young man jumped on the hood, and on the windshield.,” Carungay told KGO. “That kind of started the whole melee.”
What about contacting them and telling them you’d like to place an order but won’t be because of the long wait times (which should reflect in the apps if they’re striking)? You can include a suggestion that they pay a fair wage to attract enough drivers to meet the demand they’re failing to meet.
Sure, if you’re willing to count my house as a “fence,” otherwise the same logic would make you liable if someone breaks into your house and drowns in your bathtub. Of course it’s not likely at all, but if someone were to smash down your front door to commit suicide in your tub, nobody’s going to argue that’s your fault.
I’ll agree that leaving a firearm laying in the open in your back yard should be criminally negligent though, so can get behind that much of the pool analogy.
I’m not saying that is the case here, but I’d like to know if it is.
It’s not. The reason I called out the specific Nanovault in another comment was that a friend had locked his (the gun bumped into the internal button to change the combination and it had gotten changed and was unknown, another ridiculous design flaw). Rather than mess around with cracking the new combination, I shoved the blade of my pocket knife into it, twisted it, and it popped open. Literally the same amount of effort/force and sticking a key into a keyhole and turning it, but without needing the actual key.
After realizing how secure it wasn’t, he decided to test the other one he had before replacing them. Picked it up and dropped it from about waist height onto the garage floor (empty, no gun in it). It popped open, sending little plastic bits from the locking mechanism everywhere.
Yet, these are generally considered to meet the California legal standard of “a locked container or in a location that a reasonable person would believe to be secure.”
I disagree. The safe or trigger lock does nothing in this example, making them functionally identical situations. You’re literally suggesting making it illegal to be burgled but legal to be robbed, which is an asinine distinction.
And you’re implying that not using a safe or trigger lock means no precautions are taken. If the gun is in a locked house already, is that not “secure”? It’s as secure as a knife needs to be to not be a liability if stolen and used in a crime. Hell, a locked building is sufficient security for a pyrotechnics company to store their literal explosives.
I also specifically disagree that the barest of minimum (as you’re describing it here) is better than nothing (as defined as no safe/trigger lock). A gun locked in one of these in an easily accessible room meets your “barest minimum” criteria, but is more easily stolen than one hidden in a non-locking box in a locked apartment.
I think the better solutions focus on harsher penalties for the theft itself and more laws/enforcement around failure to report thefts.
Dumb.
