Lol coming from the one who started off with the "ackshually, by definition..." argument

Idk. Dictating what I can or can't say based on your personal beliefs seems an awful lot like an attempt to censor me. I can only speak if I'm willing to argue every single thing? Don't tread on me, bro.

Lmao are you censoring me, telling me not to bring it up? Weak.

It isn't about database functionality, it's about information sharing across jurisdictions and state lines. There isn't a national police force, different precincts use different methods. States have highway patrol, local PD, sheriff's, etc. It isn't just saying "look for plate NY-A447 338" and every camera across the nation checks for it. Additionally, not every Dept and precinct is going to have resources to throw at catching a random Dr because Louisiana is pissy about stuff. There also would, presumably, be some planned lack of cooperation across some states and potentially intra-state departments. Different places prioritize different crimes to chase. New York obviously won't be extraditing him, and I imagine similarly for other Northeast states surround NY, as well as "blue" city precincts.

I'm sure the Dr is questioning traveling and stuff; but that's wasn't what I was trying to discuss; it was merely the concept of a national surveillance system monitoring one individual on behalf of a single state (or group of randomly spaced states) throwing resources after a political win, and the necessary cooperation across dozens and dozens of different state and local departments, in pursuit of this one individual.

The big continued thing is event tickets and the different consumables they sell. Usually they combine to make a mount or some kind of limited appearance thing like a polymorph or a skin. You SHOULD be able to get all of them, +1 piece with each event, but don't quote me on that. I've skipped event tickets since the first one since I didn't know how they worked and missed the mount.

I don't think the practice of it would be hard, it's more the passing of information between depts. Open investigations get botched with info transfer, and people skate by with open warrants for "worse" charges than prescribing a medication some states don't like. I don't think the shortcoming is in the ability to do it, moreso the will. I do concede that maybe I'm underestimating the amount of red-faced cops who would love to be the arresting officer, but I'd hope they could find better uses of their time than this. I do continue to be surprised at things though, so maybe you're right.

The fun part of that becomes, how will they know? Constant license plate tracking through cameras and subsequent information sharing across state PDs to catch, what in reality, is a political crime, and only illegal for brownie points with the electorate, or will they rely on more pointed surveillance waiting for the opportunity?

Also, I know license plates already get tracked, but I don't think an Dr prescribing a legal medication in their state would warrant flagged traveling across a multitude of states just for the chance to make a political arrest. Not that it's beyond them or I don't think they would to make a point, but it would admittedly be more absurd than expected.

Sane people and his voter base (because they openly support it) all knew it was going to be this bad, and the dude said early as much. The lack on intelligence in US politics just continues to boggle the mind on an almost daily basis.

It's cause no one on Reddit goes past r/hot on their sorts. If it isn't found by people in New and given an initial boost, it dies there. Plenty of stuff has died with 3 up votes while a repost that has a bot farm behind it hits r/all every other week. Reddit now is a feed people scroll with no interaction; bots with an agenda and a select few users interact with stuff.

Let's not argue semantics and argue realistic uses of moderation.

Usually one a month at worst. A lot of times it's XP or craftng inspiration or gold buffs or double drops in a trial, etc and not a marquee event like double AP, but it's still nice.

Idk. All my personal experience in retail says they always preach about fluidity in position, benefits of working there, and how freeing it is to have a job where you just show up, do work, and leave.

In college, I was demanded to work 60 hours a week (I was part-time) with any call offs without prior approval a fireable offense (at-will state) While college classes started, which is why we were so busy. And then I got fired anyway; I'd worked for 2 1/2 years there. I bought jumper cables to jump start another employees car; I was told to do this by a manager. So I did. But I was the only one working customer service; for 2 days, I couldn't return them. I was a broke college student, I needed my $20. So another employee came through at some point, and I had them return it. They kept the money, so I didn't pocket cash out of the register, and then I got the money after my shift. Then I got fired, because I scanned my receipt while I was logged into the computer. Didn't matter that I was on camera, not returning it to myself. The printout said I did it, so I was fired. They did invite me to re-apply in 90 days when I was taken off the blacklist. I worked in retail for another maybe 6 or 7 years, so I wasn't jaded against retail just against that company. Retail is just that soulless.

I expect you'll are in a short staffed store with unrealistic expectations and people over you in similar positions, with greater demands on them, also trying to move up. I've had people work at Lowes and it's the same retail story; It's lobsters in a pot pulling each other down to get out.

I hope it works out though, I really do. It's a publicly traded company though; it demands more profits and quarterly growth. At the end of the day, what is going to matter? Employees getting out of the rat race and being comfortable, or shareholder profits?

U45 PTS Notes Week 3 (forums.elderscrollsonline.com)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 5 days ago) by CMLVI to c/elderscrollsonline
 

Will be trying to update this with each week's PTS notes, but we'll see how that works out.

 

Big news with this is the simplified Cyrodiil skills and sets running during the 2nd week of PTS cycle. I will definitely be making sure I have PTS stuff live in my PC just to see what it's like; 2400 CP on console, and never even hit level 30 on PC lol. Anything for a Cyrodiil meta change man, shits tragic right now.
