Why is NYPD unreasonable? Need some help.?
I got a summons for exercising my rights.
I got off school at around 2:40 and I was waiting down the block in front of a deli for my dad to pick me up. Well I usually get there and my dad is usually there. So I just enter the car, and leave. But it's different now he's not there and I'm just waiting, a female officer approached us and told me and some other kids "you have to move, now." They comply but I don't because why? So I just stand there and mind my own business, then ..
female officer #1 : "you have to move."
me: "i'm waiting for my dad to pick me up."
female officer #1 : "you still have to leave now."
female officer #2 enters.
me : "why?"
female officer #1 & #2 : both spoke at the same time, basically same point. Along the lines of it's their job and I'm not allowed to stand there.
me : "im on a public street, and i'm out of school, and I'm waiting for my dad, I won't answer anymore questions. "
female officer #1 : "do you have your id."
me : "i don't answer questions."
female officer #1 : " 10- something, pick up.
-waiting and looking around for my dads car-
basically other people come, ask for id, and I say "right to remain silent."
about 4 male cops approach from my left and 1 from my right. ( who was un-knowledgeable about rights, nor where I was found.
So they walk me back to school and into a small room, where they continue to ask my why I didn't comply and I told them around 6 times. Basically I got a summons....

2 AnswersGoogle7 years agoChocolate with worms EWW.?
So around 1 month ago, my grandmother came back from her yearly trip to our country Ecuador. And she brought me some chocolates which are very popular called "Jet" their website is "chocolatesjet.com" it was like a 50 pack in a somewhat medium sized box, and each bar individually wrapped. Ok, so I immediately eat like 3-4 they were very small so that 3-4 is about the size of a hersheys bar, well after about 2 weeks, I give them out to my friends and family, because I didn't like the taste of it much. And today I decided to have 1 and I opened it and I felt that a piece of the chocolate was missing completely. I look at it and it looks as if it had been eaten or scraped off with something, and I see a freaking worm moving around. Before I ate my first chocolates I realized it was dry like instead of the bar being brown it was ashy dryish. But I didn't think much of it, and there was like little balls of broken chocolate rolling around the wrapper, but it was worm ****. and I freaking see a worm now and I think I must've ate that nasty **** too, I don't know what to do, I just now realize this chocolate is garbage and has worms, what should I do, I have tingly sensations and I've been scratching my face and ears and arms because I feel like there inside me and reproducing, and **** HELP PLS.

1 AnswerSecurity9 years agoInternet Cable Help!!!?
Hi,
I am having huge internet problems today, so I was playing online with my PS3 and it seems that it disconnected due to a "DNS Error" honestly, no idea what this means, but I can make a guess it's about the router or something.. I'm not a pro at setting up these things. But I want to see if I can fix it. I tried resetting the cicso e2000, and a rca modem box. It still said there was a DNS error.. and me being me, I took off all the cables and I forgot where to put them, I'm using my phone's internet on my laptop right now, and this is the only thing that might help me.
So, I can obviously tell where the power goes and stuff, but there is a yellow ethernet cable, a blue ethernet cable, and a white ethernet cable. I've played around with them trying them in different ports and connecting it to the modem and such, and it is still not working saying DNS error.
Also, my lying piece of **** step-father said Sprint gave him a internet booster, I'm like what, no way. He said some bullshit story on how it increases your speed. I read up on it a couple of minutes ago and the reason I could barely play a ******* game on PS3 was because it uses my internet, alot of it. Any help will be super appreciated.. I'm just at a freaking loss here.

2 AnswersComputer Networking9 years agoInternet Setup Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
So recently I've been trying to play online (ps3) and when I try to look for a game it always puts me in the same lobby which is laggy as hell over and over again, with the same people. I did some research and it says it's because your connection. So I went through the hassle of trying to get it back to OPEN nat type, and I've been playing around with this **** for like 2 hours looking up youtube videos and ps3 support pages. And it doesn't work, if any of you are good at doing this kinda stuff, please explain to me this 1 thing,
http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/Tom-Clancy-... on this page, I've been following the instructions and I'm up the the bottom last 2 where you have to go on your PC and do something with your router's settings, there were pictures but the site it was taken from was taken down/suspended so there isn't much visual help.
"#3 Configuring Your Router for DMZ and Port Forwarding
Technically, you should not need to setup both the DMZ feature of your router and Port Forwarding. But experience has shown that many residential routers do not have a fully functioning DMZ feature.
In this exercise, we will run through configuring a DLink router to enable the DMZ and set up Port Forwarding.
The router is configued through a Web browser (i.e. Firefox or Internet Explorer) of a PC on your home network. To access the router configuration pages, open your browser and type the IP address of your router you got from Getting Your Router's IP Address in the address bar and press enter.
You should be promted for a user name and password. On most DLink routers the username is 'admin' and the password is left blank. If you change the default username and password, you will need to enter that information. Your router may have a different default username and password. Check your router's documentation, try their support site, or here http://www.phenoelit.de/dpl/dpl.html
Once you get logged into your router you are ready to begin configuring it to allow PSN traffic through.
1. To enable the DMZ feature and make your PS3 the DMZ Host, click on the Advanced Settings top menu, then Firewall Settings on the left menu.
On this page do the following:
- Check the box next to Enable DMZ Host
- Enter the IP Address of your PS3 for the DMZ IP Address. This is most likely either 192.168.1.50 or 192.168.0.50. This is the IP Address we assigned to the PS3 in Configure the PS3 for a Static IP Address.
- Leave Schedule as always
- Click on Save Settings (VERY IMPORTANT)
After clicking on Save Settings your router will most likely restart. There will be a delay while the router is restarting. Once the router is back up. Move on to step 2.
2. Configure the Router for Port Forwarding. In this step we will forward all of the appropriate PSN ports to the PS3. On the menu's select Advanced then Port Forwarding.
In this section you need to add all of the ports for the PS3.
Here are the ports and what you should enter:
Name IP Address (IP Address of the PS3) Start End Traffic Type PS3-1 192.168.0.50 80 80 TCP PS3-2 192.168.0.50 443 443 TCP PS3-4 192.168.0.50 5223 5223 TCP PS3-5 192.168.0.50 3478 3478 UDP PS3-6 192.168.0.50 3479 3479 UDP PS3-7 192.168.0.50 3658 3658 UDP
Make sure you are using the correct IP Address of your PS3. The IP Address above is just an example.
Make sure and check the box in the far left column to enable the port forwarding for that line. You should have seven boxes checked.
Click the Save Settings button and let your router reboot itself. DON'T FORGET TO SAVE!
3. Enable the UPnP feature of the router. This should be the last step. Again, on the menu, select ADVANCED on the top menu then click on ADVANCED NETWORK on the left menu:
For this step, just check the box next to Enable UPnP.
Then click on Save Settings and let the Router reboot."
Here are the steps I am missing/ do not understand. Can anyone explain what the **** this **** wants me to do? And isn't there a easier way to reset your router to make your party say "NAT type: OPEN" not moderate or strict? Thanks in advance
1 AnswerOther - Internet9 years agoWhat is going on here?
I recently watched the roast of Larry the cable guy on comedy central, and one of the comedians made a comment asserting that Larry sold his soul to the devil in exchange for the acquisition of fame and fortune. I don't believe in the existence of any sentient being, malevolent and benevolent alike and try to stay above those sort of baseless hypotheses, but my curiosity does get peaked at times, which may transgress my better judgement. It wasn't the comment itself, it was the fact that this assessment is ubiquitous throughout the entertainment industry, that celebrities have sold their souls to acquire a lavish life, its tenuous, but its there. And they openly admit it nonchalantly. At first I figured it was just a saying or recurring joke when it was assimilated into music and even interviews, but through much inquiry and scrutiny I saw that this allegation has been made against many, particularly musicians.
The first was a 15th-17th century violinist whose name escapes me at the moment but the story originates from the allegory of Faust. Then, Robert Johnson, whom many consider to be the father of rock and roll allegedly sold his soul as well. According to the people who knew him personally he was a horrendous guitar player, so atrocious in fact that on a normal outing with a guitar in hand at any party, he received incessant complaints from his peers. He left his home town and when he returned a month later, he was one of the greatest guitar players the world had ever seen, which was mind boggling to many. He indirectly admits to selling his soul in exchange for becoming a proficient guitar player in many of his songs. Bob Dylan admitted it on camera without any hesitancy whatsoever, but for the most part it remains confined in the songs of many contemporary artists in anecdotal verses and subtle hints.
It nevertheless perplexed me at first and still does. Any thoughts on this?
