A recent new hire at work messaged me earlier this week on Teams to ask "Do you use Teams?" I replied yes. But based on the times that they've messaged me since then (lunch hour when I show as "unavailable" as well as after hours) I think what they MEANT to ask was "are you instantly available at all hours?" No. No I am not.

Hey PDX folks! What local organization(s) do you think is/are doing the most effective job at combating homelessness? I'd like to donate a portion of my new raise.

I'm obviously not the arbiter on what is or isn't antisemitic hate speech. But I keep seeing vague claims that the protests have been making antisemitic chants, etc. I can't find any details on these supposed chants.

Clearly antisemitism is bad and wrong. But is this just one of those cases where anti-zionism is being mislabeled? Or is there seriously a problem with antisemitism in these protests?

@enobacon Yeah, I've noticed the same. Cycling much more rapidly than is typical for even this time of year.

Legal question: If a private college calls out cops to get rid of protesters and the major intervenes and tells the cops to stand down, would the school have a cause of action against the city if something happens?

Karstan,
@Karstan@urbanists.social avatar

@BlackAzizAnansi nope! None at all. Cops have no duty to protect you per the Supreme Court:

Karstan,
@Karstan@urbanists.social avatar

@BlackAzizAnansi yeah, but you'd have to have a cause of action to sue the police. Generally suits against police involve 42 USC ยง1983 which allows you to sue cops for a violation of a constitutional right (if memory serves, it's been more than a decade since I practiced law). Otherwise most cop behavior/action is protected by "qualified immunity" against civil suits.

Karstan,
@Karstan@urbanists.social avatar

@BlackAzizAnansi oh dang, but you're saying maybe a suit against the mayor? I think qualified immunity still applies here, but I could be mistaken.

I see a lot of stripped arcade cabinets given away for free on Craigslist, and it makes me wonder why people are stripping arcade machines of their internals.

What do they do with the internals? What do they use them for in absence of the cabinets?

Karstan,
@Karstan@urbanists.social avatar

@MLE_online parts for other arcade machines if it's anything like other vintage machines (IME)

how about a smart watch that's a little bit larger, like a 3in screen, and without the wristband, and it has its own sim card so you don't need a big phone in your pocket?

Karstan,
@Karstan@urbanists.social avatar

@enobacon yes please! If it rquires more than one hand to operate it's too big.
