I hope they follow this up with a “we need to talk about prohibition” video because that is where the most harm resides. All drugs have downsides, but treating them as a justice issue rather than a health issue harms everyone.

Seriously though, I never got near those numbers. I did put about 2500 hours into TFC and TF2 before it became a bot hellscape.

I also went into NextDNS and put blocks on the news sites I got into the habit of checking. Fuck this, I’m not even in the US.

Risk that roadside drug testing could make roads less safe in c/newzealand@lemmy.nz

The key issue is they are testing for the presence of THC which can remain in the body a long time, long after it would have no effect on driving. If they cannot detect impairment, what’s the point? Now nobody with a legal medical cannabis prescription can drive without fear of being tested.

"Drivers who take medicinal cannabis for cancer or mental health or pain relief, are not willing to put themselves in a position where they are potentially going to be prosecuted for driving while taking a medication that is prescribed," she said.

There are 190 more people on the National Gang List and 80 fewer police officers on the streets than in November 2023 when Labour was in government.

Police Minister Mark Mitchell says the National-led government is seeing success and there are many police officers in training to come through, but there is "a lot more to do".
Former police officer Lance Burdett says the gang patch ban will have the opposite of the intended effect, forcing criminals underground.

Just yesterday I banned Facebook’s user agent that is supposedly only used to generate link previews. It was being extremely aggressive, making 20 requests per second. At the time I thought “I bet they’re actually building their own search index”, and here we are.
