Is part of the AI the worms? such is life on Arrakis ;)

See Remington EtronX https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qP6Q9ZEsEo (but it obviously was a commercial failure)

That picture looks like hospital food

Understand that everyone suffers from some degree of this and the world up to this point was still built on procrastination. “If it wasn’t for the last minute, nothing would get done”

Thank you for your opinion and service. I too served and was privileged be trained during relative peace time but also had the liberal budget thanks to the GWOT. Our country doesn’t really give out medals for just shooting, but my competence and appreciation in marksmanship is owed to the wonderful cadre I had teaching me, and their passion in marksmanship in addition to the weapon system.

I’m not going to deny your point on killing. That is one application of firearms, also a powerful one, but I don’t feel that’s a reason to absolutely prohibit them for the common folk. As we’re both on HN I’m sure you also don’t “get” why folks just love some things like I do.

For me it’s the history, appreciation of the engineering, and my now civilian hobbies of hunting and competition shooting. They are one of many things that bring me joy that I would hate to lose in my healthy years.

Guns are cool. You should give them a try, I recommend at an outdoor range too. America is one of the last countries with a liberal mindset (in the true definition) that allows private ownership to exist. Like driving fast, flying or diving, there are few pleasures in life that match firing guns outdoors.

As a Canadian who never grew up with standardized testing, and also graduating with an IB cohort (from a public school) whom none of them actually went to the US (just took their boosted canadian grade equivalents or went somewheres in europe), I really fail to see how this could be that bad of a thing. The first year, or semester even is a great filter that cuts a significant amount of folks where school isn't for them.

I can also see this as a move like china did to kill tutorial services to give kids back their teen years. In a land where school is so expensive I think its worth it to spend summers working a job (and all the merits that come with that) to better prep for possibly the biggest financial decision ever for a still developing brain.

I don’t relate to the active destruction part but I enjoy looking at the twisted metals and frames of car wrecks and the like. For me it’s the reconstruction of the aftermath

500 server error :(

Maybe its super fast bots?

You don’t use email on your phone?

What if parrots also charged interest but the rates are just that low?

I feel like my Lexus is300 has actually appreciated the least out of all the vehicles I’ve looked at. So there’s that :(

I am Canadian and I just learned about this, wow

i like hackaday.io but maybe thats too specific

Was it the m60 or m240? Was it delta force BHD? Good times :)

As China becomes more wealthy they'll move out of manufacturining. There should be an list of economic colonies of China.

oh wait...

The army is structured suffering that even pays, feeds and shelters you

they wanted to restart the print job?

Great app! It's very clean and aesthetic will no doubt build trust in your user demographic.

idk why but every wife beater combo makes me chuckle https://www.twelve70.com/outfits?category1=top&item1=tanktop...

Perhaps some sort of correlation to password strength for dictionary type attacks

I am also surprised by the numbers. At first I thought numbers would be lower.

I wonder if an equally useful question is “were you ever depressed?”

Im interested in seeing if there is an overlap of those that answered no. If they’ve overcome their depression and more importantly recognize what real depression feels like for them.

This person may have been a victim of IBM design thinking workshop and is bitter

This is still one of my favourite moments https://youtu.be/OpKOm-LLRhA

This might not be for you, and not for me either.

But it's for the 13 y/o me that was figuring out how to use alcohol 120% to burn the latest games or fix my computer from all the viruses I got downloading movies and music at that time from p2p.

And if it wasn't for that pursuit that led to many other skills and opportunities, I know a lot of us wouldn't be in the financial situations we are in right now.

I guess Google and now Microsoft know I can't do basic math :(

NO PINBALL?!?!

Other than that well done :)

I still stutter once in a while, much worse as a kid, heres what helped me:

1) Public speaking, I finished up to the old ACS level at a local toastmasters

2) Subconsciously building a wordlist that I stutter more than others, and using synonyms that don't

3) Playfully smiling and saying "Bleh!" out loud if I do catch myself stuttering, and repeating what I was trying to say.

Finally: To the well intentioned non-stutterer telling us to relax and slow down, go fuck yourself

Sometimes I recycle tabs instead of opening a new one :)

One of my fondest memories during my time in the Canadian army was on the C6 gpmg range where I did my first live fire on that gun. We were expected to be at the mess line for dinner very soon, so the word of command by the time I got on it was “...in 200 round bursts”.

It was quite the display of talking guns (more like constant scream lol) with tracers at sunset
