I guess we now know what someone at Flock likes in their whiskey glass.
Do you have a citation for this? I am not seeing anything on their website and they did not come up to me and demand I sign anything when I was there?
If you work on things for banks, financial markets or the federal government, you may be starting as early as 5~6am on the west coast.
(Also, despite having lived in Portland, Reno seems to be the worse city in my experience with people complaining about everything on Reddit.)
1. Burners drop trash with people offering to dispose of it for $5 a bag or so, they end up dumping it somewhere else.
2. Burners drop trash at the major hotels and casinos, who buy dumpsters to attract the burners and then people from the local area toss the dumpsters scavaging for things.
3. The normal trash dumping issues Reno has are, for two weeks a year, blamed on burners instead of the locals. I seriously doubt trash bags full of baby diapers, mail and construction debris (all examples I see on the Reno subreddit every year) are from Burning Man.
There are already legit places in Gerlach, Reno, Lakeview and Ceaderville where you can dump trash and know its going to be disposed properly, but not everyone going is really hip to spotting the trash scams and all that.
Unfortunately all this mixes with the percentage of people going to Burning Man who don't dispose of their trash respectfully and it becomes a large, hard to quantify issue.
The dispatch backend can fix this by annotating this warrant with a warning that its not this particular vehicle.
Police themselves can fix this by being a human check on dumb entries in computer systems.
From my experience being a homeless youth 20 years ago, LGBTQ individuals make up a large share of homeless youth, I would guess more than 50% at the time.
There may be less gay or lesbian homeless youth these days, but transgender youth may have grown.
There can be more depending on how you block out the cables, I have seen 5. The two Skycam limit is based on two independent systems that do not do cable avoidance in software, you just block out the allowed altitudes on each system.
There also other cable suspended systems in use to move on a line strung between two points and sometimes a track suspended under the stadium roof.
Fun fact: The Skycam was invented by Steadicam inventor Garret Brown and uses some of the same principals for stabilization.
People talking about MCAS seem to simultaneously pound the line that everything on the aircraft the pilots encounter should be trained for and forget that adding new stuff to the flight displays will incur additional training that an airline may not want to deal with.
FedEx did and they retired them in the last 5 years because they had reached the end of their economical service lifetime and not because of any major flaw.
Old CNC equipment.
Older Zebra label printers.
Some older Motorola radio stuff.
That SGI Indy we keep around for Jurassic Park jokes.
The LaserJet 5 thats still going after 30 years or something.
Some modern embedded stuff that does not have enough chooch to deal with 100mbit.
Also, in many cases the TV and radio spectrums in markets these stations are in are not saturated to the point where new licensees are prevented from operating just because of saturation.
So this is really just some group asking for public broadcasting to be punished even more.
After driving for an hour or two.
Why? Even logging an IP address in a request log is creating records controlled by GDPR.
When TV news in the US is broke and only gets along because large companies buy up stations to control the news, its hard to justify spending tens of thousands of dollars on complying with laws from another continent.
The latter is a much better system to find issues than the former, you get a chance to see a lot more issues when your actively working on the systems where the issues would be than if your walking around and looking at paperwork.
