There’s a Black Mirror episode about a similar scenario taken to the extreme. It’s quite good.

News@lemmy.world•US teacher shot by six-year-old student awarded $10m by juryEnglish
4·5 days agoWell… yes? Did you read the article? Or the thread you’re replying to?
There are two court cases here (as you seem to understand…) - a civil case against the school, which awarded monetary damages to the teacher (as civil cases often do), and a criminal case against the mother, which awarded prison time (as criminal cases often do). Quite literally, as I stated in the post you replied to, the monetary damages she’s collecting are because the school administrator didn’t do her job. The prison time the mother is serving is because she had an unsecured firearm in her house that the child used. They’re two different things.

News@lemmy.world•Jury acquits D.C. 'sandwich guy' charged with chucking a sub at a federal agentEnglish
53·5 days agoI firmly believe that police officer testimony that can’t be backed up by bodycam footage shouldn’t even be admissible. There’s essentially no reason for a cop to not have their bodycam turned on at all times unless they specifically chose to turn it off, so there’s no reason we should have to accept testimony without it.

News@lemmy.world•US teacher shot by six-year-old student awarded $10m by juryEnglish
32·5 days agoIt’s not absolving the mother of anything. This is a civil case against the school specifically because the administrator did not do their job. There was a separate, criminal case against the mother, which came with its own penalties.

381·5 days agoLairmore had testified that the sandwich “exploded all over” his chest and claimed he could smell mustard and onions. But a photo showed that the sandwich was still in its wrapper on the ground after it hit Lairmore in his bulletproof vest.
So he perjured himself, then? Surely something’s going to come of that? No? Huh, okay, then.

322·5 days agoWell, no. She’s collecting tax payer dollars because a school administrator didn’t do anything when told that the child might have a gun.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone actually have home safes or does everyone just use bank safes? (or do you hide stuff under your mattress?)English
5·6 days agoThat was our feeling, too - if we did lose everything, we have digital backups of those documents. The chances are obviously low of having a fire, but that’s not really the point… the intent is to plan for the “what if” scenario. If you want 100% fire safety, you store things off-site, but this was an acceptable level of risk for the cost, for us. You mention floods; these boxes are rated for much longer in water, so they might be applicable to your use-case.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone actually have home safes or does everyone just use bank safes? (or do you hide stuff under your mattress?)English
9·6 days agoWe have a fireproof / waterproof safe box we store documents like that in (essentially this). It’s not going to keep an intruder from getting the documents if they wanted to (they could just take the box with them and smash it open, it’s certainly not good as an anti-theft device) but it’s waterproof and fireproof and that’s more what we were concerned with.
It’s worth noting that these aren’t rated to protect documents from a prolonged intense fire; if your house burns to the ground, it’s probably not going to help.

politics @lemmy.world•Republicans try to turn national Democratic candidates into Mamdani copycatsEnglish
55·6 days agoGiven the outpouring of support nationwide for Mamdani, this feels like a bold move. If they misjudge the population, this could end up providing unprecedented support for these candidates rather than scaring people away from them.















If you want a buzz cut (something you can do with clippers and a single length attachment), doing it yourself is really no problem at all. If you want something more complex, you probably want to see a professional.
