I believe a Mucci is 1/4 of a Trusses. Although there could be an imperial to metric conversion in there.

This silhouette feels like it’s stolen from every major gun, but isn’t an actual AR. That upper is closer to an AK slant at the rear and the forward barrel shroud is odd. Although I’ve seen some magpul esque 3rd party stuff.

That said, 5.56 is a round I’d be switching off of for everyone else. It’s ubiquitous, but the military is switching away from it due to body armor resistance to 5.56. Now .308 and 300 black out… most of the gun nuts all agree that the best bugout bag gun is an FN-FAL. Excellent stopping power, highly accurate, controllable, and has some great built-in features that make it perfect for survival on the front lines.

Totally forgot it was school shooting season.

For those outside the US, April is statistically VERY high for school shootings. Mostly because columbine took place in April and all copycats have since followed.

I actually think regulation is how we got them, but not in a known bad way. Originally car headlights had little to no standards, but eventually people realized they’re important to safety and so testing started happening to ensure that headlights met a minimum safety rating. The problem is that the testing was done from the drivers seat, and based on light projection in front of the vehicle rather than taking into account other humans looking toward it. I’ve been a big proponent of LED lights that dim when stopped or slowing, and even halogen/ultra dim lights for city driving, and keeping LEDs for brights. LEDs have really made a lot of brights basically useless, but the brightness, and harshness of color temperature is absolutely detrimental to other drivers.

At this point it doesn’t even matter. Whatever I type out will have changed in the last 5 minutes because we let some guy run our country based off social media posts. I think it’s currently limited to smartphones, laptops and computer chips. Which to me is basically all the tech we were trying to “bring back” but who knows anymore.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Not only that, this was his whole argument for tariffs. China didn’t even “negotiate” like all his supporters said they would. He just did it because the economy is fucked because his big brain move turned out to be awful for safety of the economy. Which wasn’t working for all of us anyways, but is certainly better than working for literally only the .01%.

It would be if I didn’t live in this hellscape. Lucky I’m in California, but they’re trying to force their agenda on us here too.

Trump just announced a while ago that now tech is exempt from all tariffs. This will probably change because fuck consistency. Everything else not tech is still tariffed.

Based on my LinkedIn and various market segments each of my friends on their is in… I’d agree we’re in one. Lots of talented people suddenly looking for a job. The question for me is how long is this going to be a recession, and dumbass leads me to believe it’ll be 3 years and like 10 months of this bullshit.

I love how you’re claiming misinformation while posting misinformation. It’s not the CEO, it’s a board member. That said, the company also officially posted these ideas on their Bluesky account.

This isn’t a “CEO” expressing a belief, it’s the board, and now the official company line.

I’m not disagreeing with their post particularly on corporate dems, but this is a company and not a persons sole belief.

Also, if dems are the party of big business then why are all these big businesses donating to Trump? Does that just mean republicans are the party of even bigger business?

Based on my simple movie watching experience neither do machines so check, mate.

Ahem, Acktually this would be more akin to the hit 2000s movie Stealth starring Jamie Foxx and Jessica Biel. Terminator is more like what Boston Dynamics does. 🤖

Note: “hit” is very loosely used here.

Read my comment again, but slowly comrade.

It’s on Lemmygrad. It’s nothing more than a Russian boot licking shithole of an instance.

Look at how they talk about Japan and South Korea not wanting to trade with China because of the US. While ignoring the literal CENTURIES of history that give us various other reasons than just “US make demand.” Obviously the US is part of it, but we give Japan and SK the strength to step away as well. It’s honestly a miracle given the history we even got Japan and SK to work together.

If it makes you feel any better the only way to play COD and understand it is to have ADHD and not remember a single point of the plot line.

However the quote “the numbers mason, what does it mean” is a cool quote and meme to use whenever someone gives me math I don’t want to do.

Uhhh

“The numbers Mason, what does it mean”

Some bullshit in between

Ghost betrayal.

Wall running and then 360 no scoping while wall peering around a corner.

More of the wettest winter we’ve had on record in nearly 50 years. The tropical storm just finished off the remaining areas that were under a drought watch.

So is Canada, but it has 64% of homes with air conditioning.

Also, maybe it’s just me, but like didn’t England, France, Spain, Italy and southern Germany all hit like 100f (38c) or higher this summer (and other summers before that)?

It’s less of a story and more a telling sign that climate change is having a direct impact on humans that it’s becoming more and more necessary for people in even European, Canadian and even PNW climates to adapt and outfit houses and businesses with them.

It’s a catch-22 though. Like, if I get out of my car for 5 minutes with it off then it just heats up to 1000 degrees. I get that the idea of quickly going in and walking out is nice, and I would honestly prefer to not have it at all (yay for just making coffee at home). However for us in incredibly hot climates it isn’t something I ever try to do. It’s 107 out today, 5 minutes with my car off turns it into like 135 on the inside. Of course all of this just adds more to emissions. Which is all of the problem….

The cost of living is lower in Canada? That’s gotta be a new one. Literally everybody in Canada complains about how the cost of living there is skyrocketing. Their home prices are worse than Cali. I was just up there in 2021 and it was pennys on the dollar for me with exchange rates, but stuff was definitely expensive up there compared to even Cali where I’m from. The only thing cheaper is healthcare and schooling but that’s just subsidized.
