My local supermarket added 8 self checkout machines, and removed almost all the cashier lanes.

For a year, they pushed everyone towards the self checkout. Every... Body. Old people were clogging up the Customer Service section because they want a human. The machines constantly failed to scan, and people would just shrug and pretend like it did.

The deviants started to realize it's super easy to steal, as they can just pay for 1/10 of their groceries and "forget" to scan a lot of things. They started to lock up a lot of merchandise, and you need a human to unlock it.

So now they have hired security guards to then scan receipts, as well as follow people in the parking lots.

The whole supermarket is kind of a shit show. I counted 5 security guards to 2 workers when I was last there. I also do my shopping elsewhere.

According to the video, a minor answered the door after the deputy rang the bell. Captions in the video say the minor closed the door after seeing the deputy, only for the deputy to open the door and let himself in.

After Shirey points at the deputy, he grabs her and pulls her onto the front porch before putting her in handcuffs. The Sheriff's Department says she was ultimately booked into the Cois Byrd Detention Center for resisting arrest and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

"This incident occurred over a month before being posted to social media and only days before the arraignment of the individual arrested for delaying/obstructing an investigation and contributing to the delinquency of minors," the Sheriff's Office said in a statement.

All body-worn camera footage has been obtained, and the Sheriff's Office says it will conduct a thorough investigation to determine if discipline is warranted.

I actually find this wholesome because while dude was initially mocking tarots, what he was really doing was being an active listener and being available for people.

So I'm all for this type of "prank".

I remember in 2005, pulling over and calling my sister for directions on my flip phone because I got lost.

I didn't get mobile internet until like 2010. Not because I couldn't, but because it was wildly expensive for a bad experience, since "mobile-friendly" was non-existent.

This was also during the era when Google Maps was a brand new website, not a app. I think I was still MapQuesting.

Remember in the 70s when the cigarette industry said their products were safe?

Remember in the 80s when the candy industry said it was the lack of exercise that was the cause of overweight?

Remember in the 90s when the gun industry pointed the blame to personal responsibility as the cause of school shootings?

Maybe just maybe industries can't self regulate. I can go on.

The only value to come out of this is getting more sound bites of old man Trump to blast onto billboards and remind people to vote.

I'm with you on this - I think most jewelery is gaudy AF.

But eye of the beholder and all.

Who is to say he didn't? He probably told him this isn't going to work out the way he thinks it will, but Delusional Man said, "Bet" and gave him a bag of money.

Of the many things to call out, this is pretty bottom.

Call her out on how even Fox News fired her for sexual harassment. Call her out on her low energy/limited charisma speeches. Call her out on how she gets to watch her ex-husband Gavin Newsom continue to get the press while Donny Jr can't get his dad to recognize him.

But point out their wedding planning timeline? Bruh that's weird.

That's the beauty of it.

Conservatives will push for laws that affect urban public schools and have their kids in private schools or live outside city limits.

A private school in London is opening the UK's first classroom taught by artificial intelligence instead of human teachers. They say the technology allows for precise, bespoke learning while critics argue AI teaching will lead to a "soulless, bleak future".

The UK's first "teacherless" GCSE class, using artificial intelligence instead of human teachers, is about to start lessons.

David Game College, a private school in London, opens its new teacherless course for 20 GCSE students in September.

The students will learn using a mixture of artificial intelligence platforms on their computers and virtual reality headsets.
