much like anything else you will always have a small portion of the population that can't handle using some "item" appropriately, or safely.
or should we just ban anything that can be used by "bad" people to commit crimes? or should we focus on the individual that commits the crimes instead of their chosen tools?
the other presidents did the same thing. It is funny that many of the past presidents did this same thing (90/120 day suspensions) Carter - iran, Obama - 120 day ban reagan - had one.
this is more of a political move by these companies and not real outrage over the policy. they don't like trump so even though multiple presidents have done it, and many more will do it.
when the batteries run out of juice and you need to use the "smart gun".
there may be support to purchase, not to mandate that as the only type of gun. and that support will last until the first time it fails to function. (which might also be the last time it is needed as well)
considering they save the lives of police more often why would you think that was a bad thing. it is more likely a gift to criminals and we would see more police deaths if they are forced to use them.
not to mention if it gets carried to the armed forced. electronics tend not to work well on the battlefield. what happens when a whole squads riffles go down at the same time?

"Well there's the problem of police guns getting stolen and police guns being grabbed and used against the officers. Smart guns are a valid solution to that. Cars are much more complex (with extra points of failure), but modern smarter cars are much safer than older non-smart cars, no reason to believe the same wouldn't happen with guns."
smart guns are a valid solution to cops guns being grabbed, that is until the time the cop needs to use the gun and it fails to fire because the power source dies and the electronics in the "smart" gun no longer work.right.
though in most states, that is being amended to allow legally licensed parent to carry within school zones as long as they are dropping off and picking up.
the restriction adopted in 1990 has been changed multiple times in the 25 years since then.
when did we become a nation of wimps?
we dealt with snowstorms for decades without shutting down at the mere hint of a blizzard.
this country is going soft catering to whiners.
the words are being added to fundamentally change what is already there.
Does the meaning of "the People" change depending on which amendment you are reading? or does "the people apply the same throughout the entire document?
if the first is true okay, than it isn't a fundamental change.
but if the second is true than it is changing the meaning of the 2nd (not clarifying) by adding those words to specify a class of people. meaning the other 3 amendments need to change what "the people" means.
I think the hate is for the unnecessary and repugnant DRM they are going to force on their consumers in the next incarnation of the product.
Personally the DRM guarantees I will not be upgrading, I like my Dunkin Donuts coffee and i'm sure they will be considered a knock off as there are limited places to purchase them.
They must be feeling the pain of the K-cups being made by everyone. Although I'm not sure as a company that implementing DRM is the best way for them to go, I see lots of customer complaints happening after release.. (what do you mean I can only use green mountain coffee brands?) then they will go and my the mister coffee k-cup machine that doesn't have DRM in it.
" These guns are made specifically to make dodging regulations easier. This shows a disdain for the will of people. If you don't like the gun control laws then go and change them. If your political system is corrupt - go and change it."
dodging which regulation exactly, it is perfectly legal for a citizen to create/make their own guns as long as they don't sell it.
The will of the people ? People want access to firearms for many reasons this just makes it easier for someone with the available cash to purchase a printer and materials to create something for themselves.
after it being out only a couple days there was a uninstall/comment that her mother was tagged as owning a SKS (she didn't)
Lots of room for incorrect tags on this add to it the potential for criminal abuse (theft) hope he has a 5 star legal defense team.
The graphic specs have a noticeable difference in their capabilities. the PS4 is far superior in the graphics department then the XB1.
I found the Kinect to decent (at least for the games I have played with it) but I do not like the always listening part of the new connect.
The DRM was just plain stupid as the backlash started over a year ago when the rumors first came out that they were going to tank the used games on the system. Why the expected it to get better once they announced it I'll never understand. It just allowed Sony and the PS4 to severely spank them at E3 this year by being that stupid.
if gun violence was the ONLY type of violent crime I would agree with you. But it is not. each of those countries has a much higher VIOLENT crime rate than the US, and while the GUN crime is down it is hardley reassuring when the other crime goes up.
I disagree being lazy has nothing to do with it. I have found many specialized software applications while appealing because they are designed for the niche market are too costly a) to purchase and b) to costly to maintain. some users wish they hadn't spent that much on it.
I had an incident many years ago with a building company they asked me to sit in as a technical consultant on some presentations on job costing software. I knew his current setup for software. Both companies provided great pitches but cost wise one was $15,000 and $5-8,000 in maintenance fees per year and the other one was in the same realm but more expensive.
After they left I told him technically both solutions would do the job he was looking for but require him to tie himself to their companies to continue using the software as once he stopped paying the maintenance fees the software would shut down. I suggested he wait a month and purchase the job costing software from quicken (would have tied nicely with his accounting software) and spend $99 a little additional customizing and it would do the same job. with no fees.
He choose to go with the $15,000 solution and exactly a month later he received a postcard with the job costing software for $99 in the mail.
Dellauction.com sells off lease laptops typically with no OS or anything from XP through 7 and all the systems are reconditioned back to original specs.
yes but you miss the point the cars will not think it is as unimportant as we do and will log all activity (car connection) then they will add a bluetooth module that either interrupts the radio with a targeted ad for wal-mart that you are driving by based on the fact you stopped my the local pet store last week.
unfortunately it is a slippery slope when it starts being added without protections from the start.

thanks for at least naming it correctly.

as long as you remember to use the "effective means" of birth control. :)

it's not the eyes wandering that is the problem, touching would be the problem.
you can look at the menu you just can't eat any of it.
hmmm a lot of people didn't get the memo. sounds kinda like the PC is dead....
hasn't happened yet and not for a very long time, unfortunately as I would love the 20 year old fax server i currently support to die and go away.
though in most states, that is being amended to allow legally licensed parent to carry within school zones as long as they are dropping off and picking up. the restriction adopted in 1990 has been changed multiple times in the 25 years since then.
sorry no... even the blizzard of 78 cities didn't close down, we got started later as everyone dug out.... travel bans, city closures, nope.

You will be assimilated into the collective.. resistance is futile.

or those of us that have followed the former carnivore program, this is just the upgraded system to do the same thing.
damn I wish I had mod points... I would ask the senator to test to see if it worked the correct way before believing the tech worked as advertised.
