a tragic comedy
  • https://kpel965.com/mcdonalds-employee-may-not-get-60000-reward-for-tipping-off-police-about-luigi-mangione/

    This one was posted further up. The tl;dr is that because they didn't call the NYPD tip line, they definitely* won't get the $10,000 from them, barring major backlash that may make them walk that back.

    The $50,000 from the FBI is up in the air, but is dependent on him getting convicted. There's some wording that someone else pointed to about the tip needing to lead to an arrest AND conviction, saying that because the tip itself only lead to the arrest, they won't be paid, but I'm uncertain about that.

    I mentioned in another comment that if the 1% want us to keep snitching, these high profile situations kinda need to pay out.

  • Because they didn't read any of the sources and just heard about the NYPD requirement that they call the tip line, which they didn't do, so unless there's some major backlash, they definitely won't be getting $10,000 of the reward.

    The other $50,000 from the FBI we're all kinda assuming will have some other reason to not be paid out, but if we're being honest, if the 1% want us to continue turning on each other in the future, they're gonna have to let these high profile snitching cases go through.

  • UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione suggests evidence ‘planted’ after arrest
  • I think they're saying it definitely was Mangione who was recorded at the hotel, which if he was checking in/out is pretty easy to prove. From there they lost track of him because they didn't know his route or he just didn't show up on any other cameras.

    I agree that the wording is likely intentional to imply guilt, but is loose enough that they could claim that isn't what they were doing.

  • Banished to 3rd person
  • Did this with a car once. It was a controlled enviroment, had one guy on an e-bike with the camera at the top of a poll and then I drove around the track with the headset on. Probably would've worked better if we'd gotten the tires aligned beforehand but it did work.

  • Words on ammo in CEO shooting echo common phrase on insurer tactics: Delay, deny, defend
  • Chances are they find someone they can pass off as him and then take him out publicly enough that everyone just accepts that it must've been the guy.

    Probably not the right call if this guy was planning to go vigilante and wasn't just upset at a loss he had to endure specifically because of united.

  • FBI Warns iPhone And Android Users—Stop Sending Texts
  • Not really a work around, but you could get a VOIP number from MySudo or Hushed or a similar service and use that to sign up for Signal. Might at least be more private if you go about it with like a prepaid card and temp email or something.

  • Hard time to be non-binary Spanish person
  • I don't speak spanish but something about hearing people pronounce latinx as the gender neutral form of latina or latino sounds jarring. With that in mind, how would you pronounce latine? In my head I'd think latin-ay sounds right, but could also go latin-ee, but something about that also feels weird.

  • Why is that the Normies had shifted from "I have nothing to hide" to "Privacy is not real"???
  • The 'nothing to hide' argument seems a lot like that 'first they came for socialists and I did not speak out, because I was not a socialist...' quote. Sure you have nothing to hide right now, but what happens when something you weren't hiding becomes a target.
