  • During a Nov. 5 court hearing, CBP Agent Charles Exum, identified as the agent who shot Martinez, was questioned by Parente about text messages he sent to friends and family after the incident in which he appeared to boast about his shooting skills.

    "I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys,” one of those messages said.

    What a psycho

  • My memorial tattoo for my soul cat Rose, who passed earlier this year

    Jump

  • My artist ended up tracing the paw print for the tattoo rather than using the file directly so depending on what you want to do with it you might not even need to do that.

  • :( I'm sorry. I had a similar experience with my first cat that passed away. I wanted a paw print but didn't advocate for it or really check that I'd get one. It was very sudden and I didn't know how to handle things like that at the time.

  • It might not be. The place I used didn't cremate for a number of days to give time for me to change my decisions. If you want it, I recommend contacting them and asking. It can't hurt to find out.

  • Yes! I got an ink paw print and a clay impression that the artist used in the design. I highly recommend the ink paw print (or more than one for different paws!) because it gives you options later. I was able to get a digital copy of her paw print which was awesome.

  • Clocks with an hourly chime?

    Jump

  • I can't recommend a specific clock, but I know a lot of mechanical clocks can do something like this where the chimes don't happen overnight. It's not a guarantee, but maybe something to look into

  • "frustrated"?! People are literally starving because of their greed, their ego, their complete lack of empathy

  • MBAs are mortal enemies of software engineers. Couple that with what one former CEO of mine said: "engineers have very well tuned bullshit detectors" and you arrive at the problem...

  • Similar story to a lot of others here

    Around a year ago I got fed up with Microsoft forcefully pushing unwanted and privacy-invading "features" on their users. It scared me to continue using it. I wanted more control and more protection for my privacy. So I decided to install Mint.

    I've dabbled with Linux in the past and use it extensively in my job, but hadn't switched significantly to it in the past. One of the biggest blockers being games. I bought a Steam Deck a couple of years ago so I was needing increasingly confident that Linux would work for gaming to some extent. It ended up working very smoothly and I haven't looked back.

    I still have my dual boot, partially because I haven't bothered to remove windows fully. At this point there's very little reason for me to not into windows. I've only encountered one game I've wanted to play that didn't work in Linux and that was an old game with mods. I might be able to get it working if I really troubleshooted it, but it's not that important.
