This satuday, October 17th, at 1pm we are having a protest 🪧 against the illegal mass surveillance of flock cameras. Come join us at town East square at 1pm and let your voice be heard! Flock, as well as other mass surveillance technology is a clear violation of our 4th amendment rights. The city needs to remove these! But instead of removing them, they're doubling down and adding even more. When I first got involved in speaking out against flock, Wichita had 197 cameras. Now today, we have over 400 and counting!

What on earth was that loud boom? It did not sound like thunder at all, sounded like a bomb went off

title says it all. tried woodworking in California once at a community led workshop and made a simple cutting board. looking to make more elaborate cutting boards as well as spoons and chess boards and things like that. I know about the maker space, but I’m looking for a dedicated class or someone to teach me stuff

looking to organize/promote any protests that are planned for the DT “rally” on Monday. i don’t have a HUGE following.. BUT i do know that a lot of my people are looking for a protest. anyone have any news??

I’m cleaning out the shed and really need to let go of my collection of coolers. I guess they’re used as shelters for outdoor cats (cut a hole, stuff with straw) so I will give them to a cat rescue if they want them.

2 days ago they cut service to route 26 for 4 hours leaving many of us late for work and appointments. Their excuse was “we don’t have enough drivers” what the fuck!!!!!!?? You have 3 to 4 buses running down Harry street at all times. You idiots couldn’t pull a driver or 2 off the routes that go every 30 mins? They left us stranded from 5am-10am. 26 is a major and busy route.

Then on Saturday the bus wasn’t taking cash, the cashbox was broken. So they pulled the bus off the route and stranded us for 2 hours. I hate the new routes, the new times have us waiting at the depot for 20 mins before we pull out. It’s horrible!

There is this one driver who switches at 930 at the depot and she is habitually slow and late. She has made us sit there for 10 mins past the time we are scheduled to leave while she walks as slow as she can back and forth to the window while stopping and chatting with passengers. Then she gets on the bus and takes an extra 5 or 10 mins to wipe down every square inch of her drivers area like the other drivers have some disease. She is one of the worst I have ever run into and I have been taking the bus almost daily since 2016.

I hate taking the bus. But I have no choice. I actually feel better after venting this out. I am pissed cause I literally wasted 2 day passes ($10) on buses that never came. I had to uber with money I don’t have.

i know the humane society, at one time, took them but do they still? or anywhere else that would reuse them?

*edit: it’s empty prescription bottles, like the orange ones with the white lids

Didn’t Wichita used to have a non stop to Phoenix? Is it only certain days or certain times of the year?

You can get 4 to NO SHOW to - even though there’s no location announced (but I’m hearing Century II)..

Recently moved to Wichita and been loving it so far. Currently residing with family but finally ready to start searching for my own spot. I want to stay close to my 2 jobs which are in derby and the other a little outside of derby.
Does anybody have any recs on what apartments in Derby are best? Any advice welcome thank you 👍🏼

Hoping to find a dermatologist here in town for rosacea. Bonus if they take Ambetter (marketplace) insurance but I know that isn’t likely.

If you have no idea what that is, it's a process for cars.

If you do know what this is and know someone that does it, can you please let me know how you get in touch with them?

Does anyone know any places where I could have the windshield of my 2020 Chevy Malibu replaced/repaired? I have two rock chips in it and one of them spread tremendously this morning; the spread is at least 1.5 feet long. I don’t know how realistic this would be but I am hoping to spend less than $300 preferably.

I must admit I read it on facebook but is he??

Hi, this is a deep cut.

Does anyone recall the intro sequence that played before movies at the Warren movie theatres between the 1990s and 2010? It changed either shortly before or right after the IMAX on the west side opened.

The sequence was 90s CGI with hover cars flying around a futuristic city, lining up at a futuristic Warren Theatres. There were two short sequences, one for no cell phones (a giant cellphone with a circle slash through it) and one for not propping your feet up on the chair in front of you.

If you recall any other details, or have a link to a recording, I would be very appreciative!!!!

I am posting on behalf of a friend that doesn't have reddit.

She is mid 30s and needing some socializing. She's an extrovert and unfortunately our friend group is either far away or doing big life stuff that makes hanging out difficult. Since going sober she's lost the ability to go places in the evening for socializing, which was her typical way to be around people and fill up her extrovert battery.

So tell me Wichita: are there any social groups, hobby groups, or anything that meets in the evening that is free or very cheap that could get her out meeting people? She's very artsy/crafty and would love anything of that nature.

Reliance Property Management is at it again!

As if the ridiculous "Resident Benefits Scam Package" wasn't bad enough, they're adding insult to injury by forcing all tenants to use a one-size-fits-all 1 gbps internet service (total overkill for the vast majority of internet users). Nobody asked for this, and they're requiring everyone to not only "upgrade", but also pay Reliance for ongoing service.

I can't speak for other tenants, but my lease agreement and addendum does not grant the landlord authority to randomly charge new fees mid-lease, and I suspect that other tenants have similar contracts.

These scoundrels need to be taught a lesson, and the easiest way to do that is with a class action lawsuit. I'm not a lawyer and haven't retained counsel, but I'm angry enough to consider this approach. DM me if you're a Reliance tenant and interested in making these slumlords pay.

Up to 4 per person free, we should make sure he knows how Wichitans feel.

Hey everyone!

Figured I'd make a relatively casual post here since our office recently had a technician position open up, and we're beginning the search for a suitable replacement.

We're a small MSP, primarily supporting small and medium-sized businesses across a pretty diverse range of industries. As a result, there's a variety in the environments we work with and the issues we encounter.

The position itself is relatively entry-level, with day-to-day responsibilities primarily consisting of:

• General help desk and end-user support
• Hardware and software troubleshooting (break-fix)
• Computer preparation, configuration, and deployment
• Assisting with other technical projects and client needs as they arise

As far as qualifications go:

• A background in IT or a related field is highly preferred (An associate's degree is perfectly sufficient).
• CompTIA A+ and/or Network+ certifications would be a nice bonus, but aren't required.
• Strong problem-solving skills, the ability to work with a team, and good communication skills are important.

We're not necessarily looking for someone who knows everything right out of the gate. A good technical foundation, a genuine interest in IT, and willingness to learn go a long way.

If you're interested or know someone who might be a good fit, feel free to DM me! I'd be happy to share more information about the position.

For context, I’m a single 32 y/o dad with 50/50 custody that struggles with friends due to the lack of time between work and parenting days.

Are there any decent sports/Weightlifting/Car/Slightly nerdy groups in and around Wichita?

I enjoy live music, wine, good food, anime, video games, working with my hands, staying in shape, and cozy night time movie marathons. Active duty here in town and just moved back here last year. I’ve attempted at making friends the natural way, but it always seems to fade into nothingness. Low effort and consistent friends are truly what I’m after. Male or female makes no difference to me, just for the love of god, be a decent person.
