Ruby - As required by the regulations, these records must be surrendered to the ATF Out-of-Business Records Center (OBRC) or transferred to any successor of the firearms busine ss within 30 days of the discontinuance of such business [Handwritten changes add cite “27 C.F.R. 478.129” but may just be the above referenced forms] Quick ATF search. YOU can do your OWN homework before you state I'm wrong, ok?:)
ruby - if an FFL closes it's doors, they are legally bound to ship all transaction records directly to the ATF. I'm not sure what the ATF does with them afterwards, but I'm guessing they probably catalog and convert them to digital format into a searchable database if needed at a later point.
Locke - you are mistaken. First, they are 80% finished receivers, not 90%.
Secondly, the rule states that if you create (at home, by yourself) your own finished receivers for whatever the weapon is, you CANNOT sell them. To do this, you need to legally become a firearm manufacturer through the ATF. This IS NOT an easy process.
If you, as a private citizen, build one of these receivers, you CANNOT sell it, you CANNOT even will it to your spouse, children, etc. If you ever decide that you no longer want said receiver, you are legally bound to destroy it. Go against these rules and you violate law and the ATF will put you in prison.
Since the spinoff, the desktops have gone to complete shit. New boxes with failing power supplies, bad mainboards, you name it.
Their QC blows now, and their outsourced onsite techs are terrible.
The server side has still been ok, but I'm worried they are going down the crapper too...
Sorry but it's a royal PITA to have to contend with Candy Crush, XBox and misc stupid shit in Win10 on a corporate environment.
Still fucking hate 10..

It was at great peril and disregard to himself and his personal safety that Edward Snowden went into hiding due to proving yet again the danger of a government left unchecked, unquestioned and ungoverned. It is my hope that he is allowed to safety one day return to the US and take his place among the countless heroes there.
Yeah, they are pretty sweet. I've deployed a few of them now to some sales reps at my company, and having played around with one they seem pretty cool. Still a little heavy on the price, especially if you want an i5 or i7 and decent storage... but I DO like the usb connectivity so there are some benefits to it...
I've contemplated replacing my 3rd gen iPad with a Surface Pro and utilizing something like Evernote and/or One Note. Have you found that the transition was fairly painless? Any suggestions?
Handwriting will slow down the method of output, allowing someone to contemplate the words a little more carefully. Considering that with typing, it's easy to delete entire sections and rewrite, typing for input and output purposes seems to be a little more free-flowing.
Both serve purposes. I enjoy handwriting the most, as it allows me to slow down and take a breath (something we all need to do more of daily!) Plus it allows that "gadget" side of me to shine... a nice pen coupled with a good paper...
Thanks Google, you've lost my business...
FYI - I have a four zone house that I was planning on swapping over to Nests.
That's not going to happen now...
If you even want to do away with the dual boot, and feel like playing around, go pickup a free copy of ESXi and run a VM of Windows.
That's what I'm doing now since I've been using Microsoft Money for years and am just stuck in my ways...;)
Other then that, I've taken many PC's at this point for users who want to surf the web and check their email and migrated them to either Debian or Ubuntu.
After showing them the few icons that they need to access their stuff, they are happily chugging away on something that actually fucking works.
14.4k dial-up, wow... how about mobile broadband? Hey even GPRS is faster than this!
And when setting up a community network, I'm also quite sure there are reasonably fast and much cheaper wireless solutions. Not necessarily WiFi (but with strategially placed directional antennas that should do quite well too), but maybe even packet radio like solutions?
Why laying cables in this wireless age in the first place? Cables are expensive to roll out and very hard to upgrade, especially when you are talking about low-density rural areas.
Or what about wireless connections for the backbone, and only wire the last bits to the homes, assuming clusters of homes that you want to connect? I'm from up that way (now living in the Burlington area) the problem with RF wireless up there is that the landscape is crappy to setup antenna and get any decent coverage... mountains and such... plus people are conservative up there in regards to cellphone/RF towers... the populace doesn't like seeing the landscape up there littered with repeaters which in that area would have to be at least 120' in height to make any difference for coverage. Comcast has done some drops into towns around there, but they were reluctant to wire every area up there due to the low population of some of the towns, it would be hard to recoup the cost... satellite would be another alternative, but the problem there is decent reception during the winter months (think whiteout conditions sometimes)..
Other then dialup, the only other alternative is comcast... which we all know is such a great company to deal with...
I own a Kirby upright I paid $1200 for with all it's attachments. This thing is bombproof, the motor could turn over a truck if it needed to. It did a good job, but I was still curious about the Dyson vacuum. I went out and picked one up and conducted a test. I have low-nap carpeting throughout my downstairs house that I vacuum weekly. To test how the Dyson was against my expensive Kirby, I replaced the bag in it to start fresh, vacuumed the whole house and then checked to see what was in the bag. Some lint, pet hair, gerbils, etc... nothing out of the ordinary... I THEN used the Dyson... I emptied the thing six times before I was through. Dust, fine sand, little gnomes came out of the floor... ok I was kidding on that one but seriously, you wouldn't beleive how much crap the Dyson takes out of the carpet. Stuff NO other vacuum will. Try it... take your favorite vacuum and change the bag and all the filters and crap that are in it, and use it. Then run a Dyson once through your place and see what it got that the other ones didn't... I'm not trying to sound like a commerical, but that Dyson was worth every penny...
Oh and by the way, I bought that Dyson three years ago and it still works just as flawlessly as it did when I first bought it, ppl stating that they broke the one they bought in the first week must have been doing something wrong.
I'm assuming it's either a BlackBerry or some Android... anyone have an idea?
These pricks called me once and I told them right where to go! Glad that they are finally caught!
Simple really...

work just fine for me.
easy. Blancco is too expensive for their options. I wipe HDD's all the time, and these two options cover all the bases.

sorry for the negative... but utah really pisses me off in general...

I completely agree... we need to get back to kindness. its very simple.

Buy one, you won't regret it.
