Says the guy who's plainly never been part of a despised minority treated as second-class citizens simply because of how you were born.
Well. I say that and then remember that some black folks old enough to remember Jim Crow still think that it's OK to treat gays like second-class citizens, because religion.
Liberty for him and those like him, but not for people whose concept of liberty involves not starving if you can't work, or not being discriminated against because they're part of some despised minority.
Seems like it'd be worthwhile to trial a real computer of similar spec to what he's wanting vs. a virtual server, to see relative speed and relative cost. You can get some pretty stonking powerful VPS instances if you're willing to pay for them, and with Amazon you can optimize for different workloads such as GPU, CPU, or fast IO.
There can't be that many projects on CVS who are sticking with it only because they're waiting for someone else to manage the switch to git, and you'd need a fair number to make this worthwhile, IMO. I think he may be tilting at windmills.
Why do this instead of spinning up an Amazon AWS instance on demand? It shouldn't cost much to convert a source repository with that method, especially compared to buying a whole computer.
Poorly, most likely. Enfields manufactured in the subcontinent (India and Pakistan both) aren't well-regarded with respect to quality.
At any rate, rechambering will require replacing the barrel, bolt, receiver, sights, and possibly parts of the magazine. That's most of the gun already, and you're compounding your logistics problems by having a small number of guns with this specific configuration.
Closer to 1889, not 1930. The late 1880s through early 1900s was when the common military rifle cartridges of the World Wars were developed. Trivia: the.303 British was originally filled with black powder, not smokeless.
However, it hasn't been produced in a long time (parts wear out), it's for an obsolescent caliber (complicates logistics a bit), and there are better rifles now.
The Finns came up with a good solution with their reworked Mosins: 3-piece wooden stocks. They left gaps between the pieces to allow for expansion and contraction with ambient air temperature and humidity.

You just went full retard. You never go full retard.
Rupert Murdoch bought it in 2007. He'd promised to keep it editorially neutral beforehand but quickly reneged.
No, see, you're supposed to make it *hard* for us to spot the cultists. Saying something stupid like that makes it too obvious.
It's kind of hilarious that a bunch of self-styled libertarians need to have a leader cult, isn't it?
Probably not that much. A new-in-box //c sold for around $2600 a few years back.
a/s/l?
How long has Trudeau been out of office, again?
MOAR CRACK!
Harper's running things. They're fucked.
They weren't, .303 transitioned to smokeless in the 1890s and the other World Wars cartridges were smokeless from the outset.
You say that as though it's impossible to hold ideas from different groups simultaneously. How charmingly naive.
Don't be jealous, there's plenty of me to go around.
You're 0 for 2.
That's adorable that you're keeping score.

Oh, look. Speaking of fringe libertarians, here's one of /.'s more notorious ones now, here to defend the tribe's honor against an apostate.
Run along, kid. I know better than to think you're willing to change your mind about your religion.

And then he turned into a neoconservative/fringe libertarian nutbar after that business with the skyscrapers in '01.
