Dude, they don't actually set the temp, they just turn the fan up and down and whatever happens happens.
My mom also does that at home with the thermostat. No concept of range control. Just manually setting the system off and on, and then clicking on the temperature until she hears central air kicks in.
So I bought her an ecobee , 2 Christmas ago. She called me last week and asked "that temperature thing you got us is still in the box...do you want it back?"

There's two theories of liability here. One is Texas tort law, the allegation that she was negligent in her actions. Under that theory, yes the city would be liable under respondent superior if she was acting within the scope of her employment. However, liability is capped at $250k by the Texas Tort Claims Act.
She probably was acting within the scope of her employment, even if off-duty, because even an off-duty officer has the ability to make arrests if crimes are witnessed and are felonies or involve a breach of the peace. So, for a lot of purposes, a cop is always acting within the scope of employment.
The second theory of liability, that implied by "excessive force," is the civil rights or 42 USC 1983 claim, also known as a Bivens claim. Under that theory, the use of excessive force is a violation of civil rights. There is no cap on liability. However, the City is not liable for her actions under respondeat superior. The plaintiff would have to prove a policy of this kind of action to make the City liable.
Apparently, both the City and Guyger are insured for these claims by the Texas Municipal League, but I don't know what policy limits. It may be the statutory $250k for the tort claims.

Unlike a number of the SW universe threads on Shaggy, I feel like I agree with most of the sentiment here.
The prequels were hot garbage ruined by terrible acting and terrible writing. I've never rewatched a single one of them after seeing each of them on Thursday night when they opened, or whatever first night it was.
TFA was fine and my kids like it. The oldsters looked uncomfortably old, but oh well. I enjoyed it, but I'm not a Star Wars guy who gets into canon and such, so it was basically just a good popcorn movie.
Rogue One has some of my favorite trailers, ever. Weird? Maybe, but they're awesome, especially the first one. The movie itself is my favorite of all of the SW movies and I like the first 3 just fine, and watched them all at the movies or on tape when they came out as a kid.
The Last Jedi offended me on deeply personal levels as a paying viewer of cinema. It felt purposefully insulting and was such a pandering piece of shit to agenda pushers that I wanted to fucking vomit at the screen. Mary Poppins Leia is perhaps the single dumbest thing I have ever seen on screen besides watching Luke Skywalker milk a fat sea monster or the entirety of Howard the Duck. This movie is indefensible and stole not only my money, but 3 hours of my time. It's fucking hard to make me not enjoy a visit to the theater with my buddies when I can get away from a bunch of little kids at the house. This one pulled it off. I won't be watching the 9th movie. I don't care if it draws $3billion and gets praised above The Godfather, I've got other shit to do. Also, they made Luke Skywalker a dislikable bitch, and I can't understand the thinking behind that. My lasting of memory of the character will be that he's an angry, whiny fuck who helped ruined the movie and the franchise.
I really like Solo. It's also easily rewatchable. I'll see more of these.
I assume the series for tv are going to be meant for all viewers? If so, outside of the true fanbois, I'm skeptical that they'll have the following they need to be worth a fuck over many seasons. Network tv has the same problems these days. Why do I want to watch shit without cusswords, real violence, t&a, and gripping plotlines? I don't.

I’m sure someone else can do the math more precisely, but what is the payment for a 230k house with a 20% down payment? I assume 1k. Another 400+ for property tax and another 150 for insurance. Let’s round down to 1500.
60k salary is 5k per month. 1500 payment is 30% of that. Isn’t 28% the max that you should be able to afford?
Perhaps i have different non-house spending habits but my house payment/tax/ins to income ratio is below 20% and that feels too much to me. Couldn’t imagine popping that up to 30%.
sound math has never stopped this country from overspending

I'm definitely going to see this because, Dark Phoenix is one of my favorite X-Men storylines,. But I'm a little underwhelmed with the trailer. It's probably because I don't find Sophie Turner to be that great of an actress.
pretty much right

I hear ya about the cookie cutter home.
However according to the chronicle, the median home price in Houston is 230K with the average at 290K. Even with the 230K amount, I seriously don't know how someone earning 60K could afford a mortgage/tax/insurance on 230K. Maybe it's not impossible but add in a car payment or two, and you're living paycheck to paycheck.
Perhaps the OP's numbers are for the Houston area and not Houston itself.

Car has dual-zone climate control.
Because everything's always too cold for her, the passenger air vents are pretty much permanently shut.
And in the rare occasions that she's feeling too warm?? Just cranks the fan control for the whole car to max.... with her vents still shut.
bitch you got your own temperature dial!

When we picked the car up and we're doing the pre-existing damage form, I wrote "the two left wheels are damaged to the point that it would be impossible to damage them any further" and we both initialed it. They tried to charge us for damage but gave in with the damage form and pics. Every single car in the lot was the exact same. Driving is not that difficult, parking is the issue, and parallel parking should be avoided at all costs. I probably added 3 or 4 scuffs to the hundreds that were already there. We ended up not using the car after the second day and just ubered everywhere. And getting the auto tranny should be a given.
you should really let your husband do the driving next time.

Based on what I've just finished researching, it's a coin flip on those two brands.
for most consumer goods, bosch plays at the low, mid, and high end, whereas miele is almost exclusively high end.
bosch is also a part of a conglomerate along with siemens, neff, thermador, so there are r&d and manufacturing sharing with those brands and probably more for partnerships/co-branding. miele remains private and is mostly, if not solely, produced in germany

Thanks for an excellent, inspiring and eye opening post Brisket. So many have become jaded and take so many things for granted. It is truly like they cannot see the forest for the trees, as the old saying goes. One part of your post really stood out to me, where he can learn to go to college;
There is so much truth and value in those few words. So many high schools, and especially smaller ones overlook this very important lesson. The college experience, especially for first gen students, and those who go away to school can be like waking up on a distant planet and far too few of our high school teachers and counselors spend any time preparing even the best of students to "learn to go to college".... and it's a damned shame as it can make the difference between success and failure in going to school.
