TonyK Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 The problem I have with the curbside/takeout situation is who gets the tip money? The kitchen folks made it and someone brings it out. That's it. So where does your tip money go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea but I don’t think the cooks get any but I have not seen one at burger joints. Domino’s ask the question when you pay.

peteski Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I also heard on the news that brakes were not applied before the crash. BTW, I would have never imagined that we will have cars with built in telemetry recording capabilities! Most of us here are old enough to see that we have come a long way from what we drove in the early '80s or earlier. Basic electronic ignition with smog control, and AM/FM/cassette radio was the extent of the "electronics" in the car. Well, maybe a digital clock. And going back further - oh boy! Adjusting the timing and dwell on a point ignition, and making sure the condenser was hooked up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends. If they obtained the EDR (Electronic Data Recorder) info via search warrant or by owner consent, then it would be admissable. Generally.* Courts have long ago taken judicial notice that the technology works, is accurate, and is reliable. * There are always screwball exceptions. 🌵😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man's an idiot and should be locked up. With his licence revoked for life. It's just luck that no innocent bystanders got hurt. Just my opinion.

He was commentator at a golf tournament being presented by Genesis (high end Hyundai) and had use of the vehicle. I'm sure the company was willing to co-operate with investigators to find out why one of their brand new cars went flying off into the trees.

Courts long ago ruled that it belongs to the owner of the vehicle, so a search warrant is required and normally granted when requested. The "accident" happened in a spot where a lot of self-important rich folks have crashed while speeding and not paying attention. Maybe they will install some speed bumps or something now.

youpey Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) almost 7 weeks for a package to arrive USPS from mass to nj (a 5 hour drive). it sat in boston for over 1 month with no movement. ebay had already refunded me because they assumed it was lost. once it arrived i paid again because i didnt want to bother shipping it back. i had already replacement paint from a different place and finished the model i bought it for. now i have another model from ebay sitting in Iowa with similar nonsense of marked as leaving but no movement. im really tired of usps. however, the closest hobby store that sells models is 45 minutes away. i took the trip yesterday and their model selection is down to just a handful of models, maybe 10 total, and none of them were anything i wanted of course. they also dont sell paint anymore, so it was a complete waste of a trip Edited April 9, 2021 by youpey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems there are never any games broadcast on Thursday so I just watch the NHL show that drops in on all the games for a bit to show you "some" of the games. Gets frustrating though when I start to get involved and they leave for another game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally spaced that it wasn't his car, OWNED by him. It belonged to Genesis, so it is their consent that would be necessary to interrogate the EDR. If Genesis was not willing to consent to the "search" of the EDR, then a court-issued search warrant would be required. The driver would have no say whatsoever, unless Genesis was influenced by "protecting" the driver. 🌵😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of a hobby shop IMO. Once upon a time, I was driving around in one of the suburbs on the side streets, and spotted a hobby shop. I stopped in, the whole place was full of D&D stuff, not a model kit to be seen. On my way out, the guy asked me if he could assist with anything. I politely said no, I'm not into gaming, I walked in because it was a hobby shop. He said "it is a hobby shop, if your hobby is gaming". Not that I drove through there a lot, but the place wasn't around long. He might have done better to call it a "gaming store" or something else...
