Read more carefully. There is far more law that goes into the definition than what is presented here as well.
A) It does not meet this definition. B) Must be a part of A) - does not meet this definition, either. C) Isn't a muffler or silencer (which are defined elsewhere) - doesn't meet this definition as well. D) "Destructive device" is also defined elsewhere, and no, this does not apply.
This isn't a firearm under federal law any more than an air gun is.
I also wouldn't need LastPass if I didn't need a cross-browser, cross-device password management tool, which Chrome is not, regardless of the trust level I assign it.
So, in fact, even if I did trust Chrome, I would still need it.
I don't know the answer to that - but it is certainly true that we did, and still do have enough nuclear weapons to directly kill a very great many people, and indirectly cause the deaths of many, many more.
If there were an unrestricted exchange of nuclear weapons, life would likely be very different (and hard) for the survivors.
If you're sufficiently distant from ground zero, where the primary hazard is from falling debris then yes, it can be effective. Certainly, under those circumstances, you've got a better chance for survival than if you continue to stand there like a dumbass.
Obviously, if you're in the primary blast zone, there's not much you can do at all. Of course, if you're in the primary blast zone, you're not going to have much time to react once you see a flash.
"seek shelter 20 miles below surface"? Hyperbole much?
No. The purpose of duck-and-cover was to escape falling debris - in the event that you weren't within the blast radius, but were within the survivable zone of the shock wave.
In other news, Apple was granted a patent for rounded/tapered turds, leaving manufacturers of competing products in the uncomfortable position of having to license Apple's tapered turd design, or risk thier customer's assholes slamming shut.
In the late 1980's to early 1990's I worked for the Federal Reserve Bank in Atlanta Georgia. I worked on the direct deposit system along with 5 or 6 other guys in the group. To this day, I still demand to be paid by a paper check.
Why's that? You do realize that your paper check has to be cleared through the same ACH system that direct deposits use, right?

"expel a projectile by the action of an explosive"
That part.
No. It is not. The NFA covers firearms, not weapons which are not firearms.
Please, contact the ATF and inquire about a NFA stamp for a full-auto air gun and see what they say. Or a gauss gun, for that matter.

Precisely!!!11! Won't you think of the nail-flinging children?
Why? It's not a firearm, and therefore does not fall under NFA.
Not only that, but this isn't even legally a "gun" under U.S. law.
If only such a thing existed...
Oh, wait. It does.

I'm seeing a vision... of broken phones... and angry people.
I'm quite the prognositcator.
Your phone requires a microphone. Your TV does not.

Oh, I don't know - how about seeking cover? People can survive and have survived nuclear blasts. I'm not particularly sure I'd want to, though.
You go ahead and pray. I'll fap. I'm sure my efforts will be just as effective.
Fucking in church is encouraged.

That's largely useless advice. After they shoot you in the head, it's almost certain you're going to shit yourself.
Yeah, but can you imagine a Beowulf cluster of these?
Oh, wait.
What else could they hope to accomplish with such a system?
Track people in the subway system, where they cannot track them by triangulation from cell towers.
It's likely the bit about tracking and recovering stolen phones is nothing but a cover story to keep the proles from complaining too loudly.
I bet you get all the laughs at parties.

You're doing it wrong. You're supposed to PEEL them first.

what's to stop someone from picking a target anywhere on Earth?
Technological entry barriers and lack of intent.
That's pretty much it.
In chunkin' parlance, the result is known as 'pie'.
