Maybe. This was one of those lights where the E-W road (that he was on) has its protected left turns at the end of the cycle, and the police officer was coming North up the N-S road and was obscured from vision by a truck in the Northbound left turn lane. So it's probable that any camera shots the cop car got didn't include a picture of the driver, which would make any sort of remote ticketing dicey.But yikes, man. That's one of the top 5 worst intersections in town, you probably should, I don't know, pay attention to the light and your surroundings? Especially since the other straight lane in his direction (and both straight lanes in the oncoming direction) had been stopped for several seconds before he blew through the light. Like, it wasn't even close to not being running the red.

Just cause they didn't stop him then doesn't mean he got awau scotch free
If you're going to bribe an officer to get out of a DUI, using scotch isn't the best plan.

I might be rather quiet for a couple of days, but everything will turn out good, and I'll be back to my normal self before you know it. And of course, I'll bring a full update when I can.
Edit: It's not related to anything here; it's a family thing.

Status: WTF Epic Games!? The Unreal Engine apparently has a Crash Reporter Website project.
- First off, it's broken. The CreateDatabase.sql file doesn't create all the objects the website expects.
- Apparently the database model isn't included. Somehow it magically appears at some point (I don't know how I got it, but when we wiped the folder due to the above in order to retry rebuilding it, it didn't appear as part of the files in the download).
- Magic can happen and it magically appears! But we're not sure what appeared it, setup.bat or generateprojectfiles.bat or what else!
- The damn thing doesn't even work at the start! Because disagreement on the column names or something.
Like, how can you get this so wrong?!

THE TASKBAR BELONGS AT THE TOP!
No, it belongs at the right hand side of the screen.
With aspect ratios like 16:9, vertical screen real estate is more valuable than horizontal screen real estate.
LEFT side! The right side (of my primary monitor) is the middle of my real estate. Multiple monitors rule!
My primary monitor is also the middle one.
I still like having my taskbar on its right side so the clock is in the lower right side, where my eye-muscle memory directs me.

Update: I got to Stage 3 of 6, and captured four spell cards. That may not sound like much, but PCB is my first danmaku, and for me, beating Letty and Chen and capturing two spell cards from each is a huge achievement :D
For those who don't know what a danmaku is, watch this:

Doesn't surprise me. The market is mostly tinkerers at the moment, and tinkerers aren't going to want to pay other people to do it.
The serious users (prototyping and such) own their own gear and CERTAINLY aren't going to upload their designs to randomassed websites.
3d printing for anything other than prototyping hurts my head, though. Hell, I've seen several people proudly print inferior replacement parts for cars (clips and such) at a cost of several hours of aggravation plus materials.
Meanwhile, the only reason they're doing it seems to be that they don't know how to find the damned part in the parts catalog. $1.22 at the dealership, buddy!

I'm aware of at least one corp that was looking into 3D printing for making engine parts, on the grounds that it was going to have better results than their existing approach. I've no idea if they managed to debug the process.
