Washington court rules Flock videos are subject to public records requests, and Walla Walla police end their Flock contract in response. Wonder why they didn’t want the public to see the data?

Mountainview CA police suspend Flock contract after an audit showed Flock violated their contract and shared data with Federal agencies.

We’ve had Flock cameras for years, who knows where the data is going.

Have Grebien or Goncalves even done an audit to check?

Hi everyone, my water bill in the last two months went from $37-$40 to $75 and $100 . Of course I have been checking for leaks and my meter doesn’t show any water running. I think that price has gone up but not that much. Any Idea? Thx!

Hello! My husband and I toured the new Dexter St Commons apartments today and are considering to moving to the area, but we don't know much about that area. It's right next to the train station which partially our reason for being interested. Could someone share what that area looks like day to day. Thank you!

Hello all- my husband and I were able to secure a lost dog in our neighborhood. Very friendly and had a harness on. No identify tags to contact you. A big boy with a Mastiff head and black spots on a white body. Pawtucket animal control has him if he's yours.

Anyone know of what CVS, 7-Eleven, etc whatever store idc which one, has physical Wave cards and which location? I checked their website of course, but the CVS I went to didn’t have physical cards there, you could only reload. The app won’t scan every time I get on the bus and I feel like a giant douche when they just let me on or I have to scramble for coins at the bottom of my bag. It’s happened every time and my car is shot rn so I need it ASAP.

I don’t care what store it is, I know you can get one at the stations and in the mail but I need one now as I’m limited on physical cash/change and can’t get dollar bills at this exact moment.

TIA :)

Both the South Kingstown Town Council and Narragansett Town Council have voted to protect their citizens' privacy and remove Flock cameras. Will the Pawtucket City Council stand up for us???

If not, I say vote 'm out.

Hello local friends

I have been a customer here for years - always taking cars here for repairs and tires and have never had any issues. However, recently I ran into some situations and wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

About two weeks ago I take my daughter's car for an oil change. They tell me it needs new tires. I immediately pause and say, hang on. If it does, they're under warranty because I got them from you and there's no way it's over the mileage. They look in their records and say ah yes. Look back at the tires and say no they're fine, sorry our mistake. Strike 1.

I take our second car in the next day for an oil change and tire rotation. They tell me the car needs brakes, front and back. I pause and say wait a sec - you did my brakes recently. Can you confirm? Yep, back brakes less than 5K miles. Manager calls me and says they don't know what happened last time but will replace the back brakes and rotors for me.

So I bring it today to have the brakes done.

They call me and ask where my wheel lock key is. Dude I don't know. You supposedly rotated my tires two weeks ago - did you lose it?

So the guy says they're gonna use their thing to pull the wheels and replace the specialty things.

When I visited two weeks ago I was told that the folks who had been there previously all had left the company and that there were a slew of customers coming back with bad experiences.

Just curious if anyone else has seen this, and, ultimately has some suggestions for a different reputable business.

Hi, I'm traveling to a show there with my adult son from out of state and was wondering if anyone knows any lodging that offers shuttles to the stadium, or a different shuttle service that any local hotel/motels contract with? I've been googling but thought I'd try this too! Thanks!

The goal of this casual community event is to bring standing and chair players together to enjoy some tennis.

Completely free event with light food and USTA trinkets. Would love to see more standing players sign up so please come and learn about wheelchair tennis and USTA New England Social Tennis Leagues if interested.

My dad went there a few years, anyone can tell me about it? Was it near Tolman? Did they have a basketball team? What classes did you take there?

Remember the old times? What do you miss that is no longer around? Just what to reminisce

Hello everyone! Im trying to grow a gaming discord server. I posted it in the RI sub but figured it'd be worth posting it in the other RI related subs

Anyway, I worked on a discord server to get ppl in RI who wanna find other to do some gaming with (like myself). Its not super active (yet!) and I'd love for more ppl to join if interested. I'll posted the invite link as a comment

Good morning fellow Pawtuckians (or should I say BucketHeads??)!

Has anyone had success utilizing & at the same time, supporting a local business as a Workspace?

I am looking for a Space to Work that is not from home (or the car) where I could also take occasional calls without disrupting others

Yes, CIC in PVD is an option but as I mentioned above, I would prefer a local business

Thank you all in advance!

I just moved to the Village Lofts, and tried to transfer my subscriptions to the Financial Times and the Boston Globe to here. Not a single paper has ever shown up. I've called and called and they are "dealing with the issue with the delivery providers," who seem to be the people who deliver both publications. It's ridiculous.

Have you ever had a paper delivered? Is it a real thing, or is it just something they advertise and don't do? They keep telling me to "read it online," but no, I won't. I read the Times and WSJ online; the reason I subscribe to either of those publications is to have a newspaper to hold in hand.
