Yes.
@paulwermer@sfba.socialThe Drone flights vs car break-ins chart in this article is fascinating: It shows a sharply declining rate of car break-ins, and then, as drone flights are introduced later in 2024, the rate of decline slows.
And "The SFPD increased patrols in bipping hot spots like Fisherman’s Wharf starting in 2023. Cops also started using bait cars and building cases against major bipping gangs. " And that correlates with the fastest rate of decline - good, old fashioned policing.

@digitalnaiv@mastodon.socialFohlenticker zur Hinrunde 2023/24: Mittelmaß mit 20 Punkten
Ticker vom 17.1: Nach 3 Punkten gegen Stuttgart - ein Sieg gegen Augsburg muss her 3 Punkte daheim gegen Stuttgart. Glücklich. Na und. Diesmal habe die "Punkteverspieler" die Punkte eben nicht verspielt, auch wenn auch ich vom Spielverlauf damit gerechnet hatte. Gut so. Und es sind 3 sehr wichtige Punkte, wenn man sich den Spielplan inklusive der Auswärtsspiele gegen die Bayern, Leverkusen und Leipzig anschaut.

@cdarwin@c.imOn Monday, the Supreme Court denied Trump’s petition for certiorari in
Trump v. Carroll
with no noted dissents.
The 2023 jury verdict finding that Trump sexually abused and defamed advice columnist E. Jean Carroll

The president is out of courts to shop this to,

And since he had to prepay the judgment and deposit it with the court
— along with interest!
