As long as every official is FORCED AT GUNPOINT to go through them. Every single senator, Secretary, Tzar, even the President needs to be forced to use them at gunpoint like all of us have had to.
And every single one of the police force and security forces as well. they get the exact same treatment that is forced upon the rest of us.
Made a gun in High school shop class under the nose of the principal (he taught the class) Across 3 projects I made all the parts of that gun. when done I assembled it and it worked well for a single shot breech loader. I was paranoid so it was more of a bull barrel. I even figured out how to rifle it.
It's failing because the feed material is crap. until they figure out how to use binary liquid polymers that have a far higher strength or can melt metal and print with it... they will not get a mag that will fire thousands of rounds.
And honestly if it fires 60 rounds before failure it's a win. Figure out how to make a lot of them cheaply and you only need to use them once.
Ammo is in short supply only for the highly uneducated idiots. The rest of us that actually know something about guns have plenty of ammo, a lifetime supply of ammo.
I have at least 20,000 primers on hand (cheaper to buy a full case) and about 9000 bullets that are FMJ. Last time I went to the range, I came home with another 5000 spent brass that I tumble to clean up and start reloading. 5.56 reloaded rounds cost me $0.12 each. 7.62 cost me about $0.15 each and take almost no time to reload properly. In fact my reloads are way more accurate than anything you can buy in the store.
A friend is a machinist and has made a casting block to make his own 5.56 bullets out of lead. we are going to try shooting his home made bullets in reloaded rounds this spring.
IF they ban the bullets, those of us that chose to learn will not run out of ammo. The funny part is, most of the people making the run on guns and ammo are liberals that dont agree with who they elected.
Here is a fun fact for you. I can 3d Print an AR-15 Lower receiver right now. Print it in wax, add the sprues and dip it in the silica to make the lost wax casting form. Cast it and with very light machining I have a unregistered AR15 lower. This process is EASY for someone that has a clue. if you have access to a multi axis CNC machine I can print out lowers from blocks of aluminum all day long.
Yet the Govt does not make it illegal for me to have a forge or a CNC machine. Stop fearmongering.
"I know that the release-night guys will rush out and buy the game, and when they finish it, they'll sell it back to the store because they can recoup a lot of their money and use it to buy another new game. "
No they dont.
Buy $60.00 game.... finish it in 24 hours and return it as a used turn in... you get $25.00 MAX, that is NOT a "lot of their money" Then they put it on the shelf at $55.99
EB games will push back hard on this. Because they make 99% of their money from used games.
No it's not. They have no say in anything after first sale. I know a lot of scumbags that try to say they own it but they lost that right the SECOND they advertised, "Own your copy today"
They want to change that, then they can never ask someone to buy it. They have to say , "Go and get your limited and revokable license today!" Suddenly they will not get the criminal $60.00 to $70.00 per game they are getting.
If that do that , then the Games will be $5.00 at most.
If they think they can get $70.00 a game and pull the crap of you cant sell or loan your game and still actually sell new games to people? they are insane.
Dont waste your time with Programming for PC's you have PLC background and Electrical. so take classes on Robotics. all your skills transfer. you can easily learn AB programming and enjoy seeing your code do something instead of just display thins on a screen or send a tweet.
Corperate AV also is a field that is exploding. AMX programming, Crestron programming currently is a very hot field right now. Plus you get to work with stuff that 99% of the guys on slashdot can only dream of ever touching in their life.
Equifax also typically has the worst credit database. Most people have a lot of errors on their file. It blows my mind that anyone trusts a credit report from the amount of wrong or misfiled reports are on them.
I see the fake programmers try and use coffee every day to code faster. What a bunch of noobs. Anyone that is a true pro already knows that Cocaine is the one true way to get that project done on time and with GENIUS level code.

Hope they start by banning Inkjet printers. Those things are the bane of humanity.

Do you even know what a gun is? Have you touched one? Because every single thing you said is a complete and utter lie.

I have NEVER had to replace a battery on a nexus phone. nobody needs a replaceable battery unless you cant afford the phone to begin with.
You mean Downgrade... No LTE = the phone is LAME and junk.
I am pissed that the Nexus 4 does not support LTE.
Maybe he is Steampunky and likes pirate songs and videos...
Yarr! WE be Sky Pirates!

I dare MSFT to do this. Utterly dare them. IT will collapse the entire Xbox franchise overnight.
99% of all politicians send their crap via bulk rate. They will whine to high hell if they cant spam all americans cheaply.

Making managers that are "handy" think they are programmers cince 1992...
I say publish all their other private data. I'm thinking selling the customer list is a good response to them selling my salary history.

"The no-cal versions have vast quantities of strange sweeteners."
Really? My sugar free coffee every morning has none of those. What twisted person would defile the holy coffee by adding anything to it?
In the future all restaurants are Taco Bell... oh dear god.....
