  • As a past victim of GBoard I will not pile on to OP for their glaring typo. Instead, here’s the quote from the Wikipedia article linked above

    Osama Khalid (أسامة خالد), a Saudi Arabian former administrator of the Arabic Wikipedia, was sentenced to five years imprisonment in September 2020 for “swaying public opinion” and “violating public morals” by making edits “critical about the persecution of political activists in the country.” Khalid’s sentence was increased to 32 years in September 2022 as part of a campaign to lengthen the sentences of political detainees, according to Democracy for the Arab World Now and SMEX, a Lebanese non-governmental organization.

    Ziyad al-Sofiani (زياد السفياني), also a former administrator of the Arabic Wikipedia, was likewise charged with “swaying public opinion” and “violating public morals” by making edits “critical about the persecution of political activists in the country.” He was sentenced in September 2020 to eight years in prison and was released in March 2025.




  • Lol I know, right?

    They are literally cancelling student visas with no notice and then arresting the students

    The only thing I can figure is they want to push a court case to establish precedent of no due process for ICE cases. That will open the door for imprisonment without trial, which then leads to “legal” slavery. Rent the prisoners to the farmers that used migrant labor, farmers pay what they did before, private prisons make money and get federal dollars per head, and the prisoners get more prison and work until they’re not useful, then deported

    Remember when people were press-ganged into naval service? That, but no pirates





  • So i don’t know which lock you had, the comment I made above describes most of the consumer dial safe locks out there, but not all.

    Yours may have been like what I mentioned, and the last number was 90 or something so people would dial it correctly, or it may have been a different design with drop gates where you dial all the numbers and stop on the last number. It may have been a start CW instead of CCW, there’s a few different designs.

    Spinning it lots of times at the beginning never hurts, it clears the wheel packs. Thanks for having a sense of humor btw lol

    Anyway, yeah, they can be overly complicated and a business should have a keypad safe and good insurance. The tech or manager or whoever that showed you how to unlock the safe was a dick for sure



  • Turn the dial counterclockwise past your first number three times, stopping on it the fourth time. Dial clockwise to the second number three times, dial counterclockwise to the third number twice, turn the dial clockwise until you feel the bolt retract. The latch will engage at about 0 and the dial will turn no farther than 85, probably it will stop at 90. Turn the lock lever to open the door

    Spent hours on that stupid safe.

    Skill issue
