markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Jury orders man to pay $500K for assaulting police officer who killed himself after Capitol riot1·18 hours agoRight but that doesn’t answer what the actual bar is for a civil wrongful death case to apply in a suicide. Does there need to be a criminal action first? In my example, if the suicide victim wrote a note and said “I’m doing this because my boss was mean and fired me” then there is no doubt what the cause was. However, in this case I feel like the courts would never side with the family if they tried to sue for wrongful death.
markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Jury orders man to pay $500K for assaulting police officer who killed himself after Capitol riot7·1 day agoSo how exactly does the law work with this? Civil wrongful death suits like this always confuse me. I definitely get the argument that he caused this cop to kill himself but from a legal standpoint what is the threshold for that? Like presumably if someone kills himself because he got fired, his family wouldn’t be able to sue his boss for wrongful death.
markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Completely Loses It on ‘Stupid AOC’ Over Call for His Impeachment in Wild, Marathon Rant29·1 day agoThis is legit why people started to believe in Hell- to think there is some kind of justice in the world even if there doesn’t seem to be any. Before the late BCs, most people in the Mediterranean didn’t believe in Hell, at least as a place of eternal torment for the wicked. They believed in an afterlife that was pretty bleak, but everyone went there. The ancient Greeks and certain Jewish sects began to imagine separate portions of the shared afterlife for particularly evil of righteous people to be punished or rewarded in after death. For the Greeks, these were Tartarus and Elysium, and for the Jewish sects these were Gehenna and Paradise. These concepts arose, particularly within Judaism, as a way to answer the question “why do good things happen to bad people, and why do bad things happen to good people?” And the answer was that the good would be rewarded and the evil tormented in the end, even if things look bad in this life. These ideas were floating around in the time and place Christianity arose, and became incorporated into it.
markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you think is the biggest issue with Lemmy?115·2 days agoThe people on Lemmy are mostly weird obsessive leftists who have little interest in talking about anything else and disagree with each other for having nearly identical views in the grand scheme of things. I still like Lemmy but it can get tiring talking about anything especially if you mention something that people have decided is evil like AI.
markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Trump in wake of Iran attack: ‘Everyone, keep oil prices down’English8·2 days agoHonestly I am surprised at how much it has worked so far. He told companies not to raise prices in the face of tariff inflation and so far they largely have. It’s stupid and under classical economic theories will have unintended consequences such as causing shortages but in the short term it’s been working which really sucks for those of us who have been warning about consequences that have largely not happened.
Warning - this post doesn’t contain specific spoilers, but I would recommend against reading it if you haven’t watched Breaking Bad because it may color your opinions of the ahow
I feel like you missed the point of the show if you thought the point was to show Walter sympathetically or as the good guy. The whole point of the show is that it is his pride and greed are ultimately what drive him to do worse and worse things no matter how much he tries to blame his actions on external circumstances. There are multiple instances where he does things that are completely unnecessary because at his core, Walter White is a bad person. He is not truly driven by desparation or by love of his family, but by his pride. He wants to earn his own money, and he enjoys being above the law and feels that he deserves all his money and power because he is smarter and superior to everyone. As he gets deeper and deeper into crime, it becomes clearer and clearer that his moral decay is entirely his own doing and not primarily driven by circumstances, even though Walter certainly tries to act that way. I can provide specific examples but I wanted to keep this post spoiler free.
markovs_gun@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: WD-40 is perfect for removing adhesive left behind by stickers1·3 days agoI would not recommend it though, especially on items made of plastic, finished wood, or rubber. Heat and a scraping tool are better, and barring that, a more mild or more polar solvent. WD-40 is not intended to be a solvent, and isn’t formulated for cleaning household items. It will damage or discolor a lot of materials, and it is really not worth it.

$100,000/yr * [1 yr/365 days] * [1day/3 reports] = $91/report. I assume the number is actually a round $100 and OP rounded down, so 6 cars/day * $100/car * 4 days/week * 52 weeks/year = $124,800/year, or at $91/car, ~$113,000/year
