I mean, if you don’t chew you’ll choke to death on your food, so, no it’s not redundant.

It’s not about the children, as usual. It’s big pharma and big tobacco wanting to remove the biggest threat to their chantix and cigarettes scheme.

I’m sorry, did you forget this dumb shit you said?
I’m fairly sure the vast majority of those are accidental.
Do you define intentional suicides and intentional homicides as accidents or are you being snarky without a license?

Well you’d be wrong, overwhelmingly the majority of those are suicides, followed by intentional homicides, and lastly negligence (you can try and remove the negligent party’s guilt by calling them accidents all you want, but the “accident” occurs through blatant negligence every time.)

You don’t accidentally shoot anyone either, it’s negligence.

Ehhhh no.
I can get behind “ban spying on me.”
I can even get behind “ban social media, especially the kind that makes you sell yourself, though pseudononymous link aggregators are less the issue.”
But “no more torrenting at work, no more reading digitally while pooping, no more encrypted chats, now have to carry a book, a camera, an mp3 player, my GBC, and a dumb phone, just to make up for the phone?”
No.

Just buy a flipper zero and a GPIO link cable port. Give yourself any pokemon.
Or PokeHex, a flash cart, and two GBC, but it kinda sucks to use PokeHex through WINE. Can get an “official” 90s event Mew though!

The law of universal gravitation means that a bullet leaving the muzzle of the barrel travels in a straight line from the muzzle until the effects of gravity. As stated above, the effect of gravity starts working on the bullet immediately.
The barrel of the firearm must be slightly elevated when fired, or the bullet would drop and come into contact with the ground very fast and relatively close to the where the projectile exits the muzzle. In reality, the rifle muzzle is elevated, and the line of sight is downward toward the target. To put it in reference, when your sights are on a target, your barrel is pointed upward. Even at close range, the muzzle is elevated, be it very slightly and when aiming, the line of sight is slightly downward.

Don’t blame me, blame the dictionary that decided to define it by “affected by gravity” which honestly it still would be affected by gravity in the barrel even, since it’s on damn earth. I guess point blank only exists in space lol.
- Comment on The Los Angeles Police Department shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet while she was live on TV. Zero provocation. 2 weeks ago:
I’ve rethought actually, and technically, since gravity starts to affect it the second it leaves the muzzle (trajectory is parabolic because your muzzle is aimed slightly up, not because bullets defy gravity), there is no point blank past the muzzle.

Honestly I assumed that it was a lot closer than that too, by that definition since I have a 50-200yd zero on my rifle, that’d mean anything out to 200yd is technically “point blank” which kinda seems like not how the phrase is usually used.
- Comment on Call Of Duty: Black Ops 7 has been announced - can someone please explain the plot of these games to me? 2 weeks ago:
I just want to know if Sticks and Stones is back as a permanent game mode yet, otherwise no sale.
Haven’t played a BO since 2, after that they dropped Sticks and Stones, so I dropped interest.

Same but also would like to be able to meet people since half my friends died and the other half moved lol (also maybe a woman who wants to do all of the above with me would be cool, and add books). The bar was kinda the last place I could do that, nobody wants to strike up a convo at the grocers, and concerts are too loud to talk/meet or are no talking allowed (like theater/comedy).

To your comment: not only that, it’s a censor of an already censored curse word, “fck” of course meaning fuck. This is one of the more egregious censors I’ve ever seen.

But also are still only 60% effective and can be defeated with a thick coat, besides you need to have the exact distance between prongs for intramuscular incapacitation, too close, too far, or one prong miss will all likely fail to adequately incapacitate the attacker.

Depends. He used a printed glock, not an FGC2.0. The FGC uses parts like you describe but printed glocks just take glock parts.
That said, it’s still fairly trivial to acquire those glock parts anonymously.

Yeah, cute things like an unregistered glock 19 lower printed at a 45 degree angle out of pla+ you can attach to a trigger and rails via pins, rails that themselves connect to a glock 19 upper?
Hmmm…
