Individuals use credit cards to buy from businesses. In the US, no business can sell a gun to a minor or criminal, or a handgun to an adult under 21, anywhere, anytime, for any reason. It is a federal crime even at gun shows.
There is no gun show loophole. Don't believe the lies.
I can't remember if they're visa or mastercard. They sell them in a pharmacy next door so I'll read the fine print next time I'm there and post it here.
They're shrink wrapped cards with preset positive balances ($50, $100, like prepaid calling cards). It should be anonymous unless it has to be activated in some way.
If getting a plate of sheet metal back in their return envelope hurts their profit margin, then perhaps they'll find a better marketing channel. A little darwinism is good for business.
My mother told me about the "War of the Worlds" fictional radio broadcast from when she was young. It was made to sound like a news broadcast of aliens invading our planet. Many people didn't realize it was fictional and panicked.
My alarm clock radio woke me to this story this morning. Until I verified that my radio was tuned to a legitimate news station, I thought, and hoped, that this wasn't really happening.
By the time I arrived at the commuter rail station, the Pentagon was on fire and all inbound trains were cancelled.
I still don't know if any of my co-workers were inside when it happened.
It's impossible to imagine the hate that could drive anyone or any group to do such a horrible thing.
I thought about giving blood when the news media forwarded the plea for donations. I'd probably be turned away due to the incredible volume of volunteers.
So I'll do it tomorrow. Or the next day.
There's always a shortage of donated blood. Even when this is over, don't forget the gift you can provide to those in need.
And there's always a need.
Would the pay me to listen to country music?

RIAA To Target CD-R

If they charge based on how much you enjoyed the music, would they pay me to listen to country music?
The money the distributors are paying comes entirely from consumers. If they aren't directly targeting CDR buyers with price hikes, then the tax burden is spread among all their customers.
After years of happy dealings with business Compaqs, I bought a Compaq Presario 12XL510 for personal use.
It only runs Windoze ME!! Forget NT, 98, 95. After some tweaking, I have Redhat 7.1 working but, of course, it has no drivers for the touchpad, winmodem, higher video functions, etc.
Compaq consumer support sucks. No drivers. "You can only use Windoze ME."
....and I just sold three dozen Dells to my latest client. Bahahahahahahah!!!!!
Chips can't be bent, washed, crushed, heated, etc. Embedded electronics in currency, clothes, media, or durable goods will fail. No matter how small they can make the chip, it will never compare to the capabilities of the ID materials created by Inkode.
My school cancelled my email account THE DAY AFTER I GRADUATED. Jerks. I never used it, as it was a computer generated mispelling of my name which I found personally offensive and "policy" prevented anyone from fixing it.
I agree. Internet killed BBS's but never actually replaced them. The scope was so much smaller, yet there was more personal and social interaction than can ever be achieved through any internet service. I made most of my friends (even met my first girlfriend) through bulletin boards - and they were real people that could meet in person.
All these years later, I still miss my old BBS. That list really brought back some memories. A lot of old friends I haven't heard from in years.
My compliments to the dude that put it together - it was dead-on accurate for my area codes. Great job.
I bought one of those surplus laptop supplies from Marlin P Jones. It was DOA. Nice looking unit, though. So I used an inverter. Much easier to hook up, and now I can blend margaritas in the back of my Jeep at field parties =|> .
Those purpose-built 12V ATX power supplies are nice but too pricey for a homebrew system.
How could you make a living through spam? What kind of moron would actually give money to a spammer?
My favorite spam subject line: "The information you requested. 24928989".... Like I'm supposed to think, "Oh. I must have asked for this and forgotten about it. I guess I'll read it then".. Do you really think I'm that stupid? It also means that my ISP has already blocked your garbage 24928988 times.
I'll tell you what. I'll gladly accept your spam. I'll even read it. As long as: 1. You provide an 800 number where I can call and yell on your dime. 2: You answer the phone personally.
If I had to choose between trying to make a living with spam or starving to death - I'd starve.

Get one of those prepaid visa cards from the grocery store. "My best friends call me cash."

Just stuff it all in the postage-paid return envelope and drop it back in the mail.
It must be something about the midwest. When I was out there, I was so bored that I put a linux box in my car.
I posted a site somewhere during this whole mess and it's been "pending" ever since. I guess the ring admin quit and didn't tell anyone.
I'll bet Internet2 can handle more spam and get it there faster.
