On the other hand, barrels and other components in the US are generally unregulated. It is the lower receiver that is technically considered the firearm.
No... molded metal isn't really up to the task of handling modern firearm pressures unless you make something substantially thicker than the standard barrel and even then its rather iffy.
The bolt will only fly out under the pressure of the action spring, and will do so in the general direction the shooter was aiming. Theoretically it could put an eye out, or break your thumb. But the odds of it killing anyone is fantastically small.
This guy is printing the lower receiver of an ar-15. That is just the plastic bit that holds the other bits together. Not one bit of it is subject to high pressures or temperatures. All the lower receiver does is hold the magazine, trigger assembly and buffer tube in place.
But you don't understand. If every high school graduate can code, suddenly coding is comparable to flipping burgers and stocking shelves, so they can fill those "programing jobs" for $8 an hour.
This was an economic study. It showed that the market for jobs with college degrees has grown by millions, and the market for jobs without a college degree has shrunk by even more millions. So yes, a degree makes you vastly more employable.
No. You are not getting it. It doesn't matter how hard you try, they NEVER know what they want. It will change, and they will expect you to turn everything around. Often they expect you to do that without delays or additional costs, or both. You can teach them what they want, they may even agree for a short time, but not for long.
I am not a consulting company, no it is not my job to make other people do their job. You are blaming lazy developers, when you should be blaming lazy, fickle customers who are incapable of knowing what they want or need and change their mind every damn week, and then demand that you rework everything to meet whatever happens to be their fleeting fancy of the week. Even a good architect faced with that kind of BS that I see every day has a choice of submitting or telling them to go fuck themselves, and architects are rarely allowed to tell the customer to fuck off.
>95% of failed, past due or overbudget IT projects are a result of insufficient, incorrect or everchanging requirements from the customer organization and the people on our side who interface with them. It is a result of people thinking that computers are magic, large software projects are easy to change completely after they have been nearly completed, and people will understand what they mean instead of what they say.
You can always buy a 20 dollar cartridge and once it is used up, try to hack a charging port into it. May or may not work. It would only be truly impossible if they put DRM in it, like they are starting to do with ink jet cartridges.
I also rabidly defend the right to practice and express religious freedom, despite the fact that is mental illness. It has nothing to do with how much I like or dislike porn. It is fundamentally unethical to limit the expression of someones rights when that expression does not directly infringe on the rights of another.
True feminists support a woman's right to choose what to do with her body. Denying free sexual expression to women in the name of feminism is the height of hypocrisy.
Performing in porn is free expression, and banning that expression is an infringement on the civil rights of the participants. The only "harm" resulting from porn is not from the porn itself, but from a society that is reactionary and overly judgmental. This is total bullshit to call this "progressive".
Not really. I like guns, and I am as anti conservative as you can imagine. But I am a very tiny minority here. A lot of these people can't say 2 sentences in a row without saying "NOBAMA", "COMMUNIST-IN-CHIEF", or something about the new world order coming to confiscate their bibles with black helicopters.
Guns are available if you are willing to pay a premium (retardedly so for AR or AK pattern rifles). Ammo though is horrifically hard to find unless you happen to have a gun in every conceivable caliber.
yup. Last time I looked, I could only get 300 win mag. And I don't have any guns that take that.
22LR and 5.56 are IMPOSSIBLE to find, and my personal stockpile is only 300 rounds for each of my rifles and barely over a hundred total for my pistols.
It doesn't help any I don't like spending time around the conservatives who usually frequent gun shops.

Tyranny is not the exclusive providence of the government. A criminal attacking you in your home can also be a tyrant.
Ownership is not an inalienable right.
The concept of property is not universal.

I would rather go into combat with a 3d printed lower receiver than a butterknife.

But you DO need a 1000 foot 100k ton aircraft carrier to carry the nuclear power plant to run your magnetic rail guns.

Neptune and Pluto have synchronized orbits with a stable resonance of 3/2. Pluto is effectively captured.
There are objects larger than pluto that cross its orbital path. And I am not just talking about Neptune.
because the determining factor in excluding Pluto from the list of planets is not its size, it is that it has not cleared its orbit of other bodies.

Yea, I would much rather have sex or appear naked in front of people than be forced to clean a disgusting toilet.
The no true scotsman fallacy assumes an arbitrary distinction. This isn't arbitrary.
