So you are fine with being prevented from buying ANY firearm except this one?
Especially when the manufactures themselves state:
"The iP1 pistol is intended for target shooting only and will not function if it is not within 10" of the referenced iW1 wristwatch and the PIN code entered, or it or the referenced iW1 wristwatch do not have sufficient battery power, or communication between them is blocked. It should not be relied upon for purposes of self-defense."
BTW, the question being answered here didn't ask about kill switches. Why are you moving the goal posts?
Negligent discharge rates (and corresponding injury/fatality rates) amongst law enforcement and military are not significantly different from the general population.
Here is what Armatix says about the reliability of the iP1:
"The iP1 pistol is intended for target shooting only and will not function if it is not within 10" of the referenced iW1 wristwatch and the PIN code entered, or it or the referenced iW1 wristwatch do not have sufficient battery power, or communication between them is blocked. It should not be relied upon for purposes of self-defense."
Do you think the government should make owning any firearm that does not contain this technology illegal?
SB 293 would require guns submitted for testing to incorporate owner authorization ability starting two years after two “smart guns” have been approved for sale. The Armatix iP1 is the first of the two.

“My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of this horrific tragedy and their families. These events are shocking to all of us and sadly remind us of the carnage that is possible when assault weapons get into the wrong hands. It is imperative that we take every step possible to eliminate the types of senseless killings witnessed in Aurora, Colorado. We must limit access to weapons that can carry massive rounds of bullets or that can be easily reloaded. SB 249 is a step in that direction and should be approved by the Legislature as soon as possible.” - Leland Yee
There are whistle blower laws that would have protected him if he'd played by the rules. He chose to make a martyr out of himself.
Fool. That isn't how whistleblower laws work, not even in theory, let alone practice, especially in the intelligence industry.
And he did try to play by the rules; his superiors made it abundantly clear to him (repeatedly so) that his opinion on the matter was not solicited, and furthermore, endangered his career.
It's getting old hearing the same story day after day.
Until naive, delusional fools like yourself can't see the problem we're facing, it should be repeated constantly and continuously until you get the fucking message.
And as you said, this is more or less what the author found, except that he apparently has no idea how to convert kW/h per hour into watts. And for some reason, he's using lightbulbs as a yardstick, and not a PC... which is, after all, basically what is running on the tesla 24/7
It only needs markings that uniquely identify the lower before assembling it into a firearm. An unserialized lower by itself is simply an incomplete part (not illegal).
Answer: BS&F are still hoping for brazillions back, even though SCOG is broke.
A better question is, where did all the money go anyway? Novell never got paid the money that SCOG owed them.
Answer: Delaware bankruptcy court (specifically Judge Gross in this case) is utterly corrupt and broken. They siphon money away from creditors and towards lawyers, making sure that ALL creditors get stiffed, until there is no money left.
Why do you think incorporating in Delaware is so popular?
> Well, NAT saved us from a certain doom, and also provides extra security
NAT is a horrible hack. It might be a good solution for some things, but to fix the addressable space option, it is a disaster.
Talk about an almost entirely useless "broadcast" only Internet. Is that what you want?
> (might act as a firewall).
Even worse. I don't even want to begin to explain to you why you are wrong about this. The broad adoption of UPNP makes the idea that NAT provides you with a useful firewall complete idiocy....
If you want a firewall, make a firewall. Do not rely on NAT. Ever.

Because the idea (in both NJ and CA) is to make all other firearms illegal.

CA SB-293 would make guns that do not have smart gun technology illegal to purchase (unless you are a cop or work for Hollywood).

They still need a *globally* unique MAC per device. Yes, technically, it only needs to be unique per subnet, but NOBODY depends on that.
From the start, OUIs were 3 out of 6 bytes long.

It was a typo. My post should have said kWh, not kW/h.
The latter, as you point out, is a meaningless unit.
No. Power consumption is typically measured in watts, not joules, since power is generally more useful as a rate measurement than energy.
The average PC draws around 50-200W idle.
And as you said, this is more or less what the author found, except that he apparently has no idea how to convert kW/h per hour into watts. And for some reason, he's using lightbulbs as a yardstick, and not a PC... which is, after all, basically what is running on the tesla 24/7
Yes, he's a fucking moron.
If your superiors decided that an Oracle solution was best, then it most likely was.

Global warming was made for us, specifically?
You have no idea what a mutex is, do you?
All you give a shit about is shareholder value. That is all you are paid to care about.
And what if I want to run my own bootloader and kernel, on a machine I own?
He was wearing full body armor
No, he wasn't. Check your facts.
He also indiscriminately sprayed fire from high powered automatic weapons
The .223 round isn't high powered, nor was the AR patterned rifle fully automatic.

It's 80%, and yes, there is a "legal" standard for what 80% is.
