Yeah China and India are tentatively siding with Russia right now, but this would put a stop to that in a hot second

Especially since there's literally nothing to be gained beyond dick waving - it's not like they don't already know that their nukes work, sadly nuclear warheads are a solved technology

Only drip machine I've found that can rival a good Ole fashioned pourover

There are quite a few genuinely great mobile games, especially when you include ports of retro/pc games. The trouble is you have to wade through enormous piles of mtxn shit to find them

Tbh yeah - all you need is to do a bit of reading on the events leading up to WW2 - if this was in a book/movie I'd be saying "come on guys, that's a little on the nose, isn't it" lol

we want to burn off excess energy.

A step further even, a lot of us need to burn off excess energy, because we're so well off (evolutionarily speaking) that we practically can't help but take in more energy than we burn naturally

Don't expect much lol, when I pointed out that this was inevitable the most common response was "who cares?"

Privacy is dead mainly because your average person doesn't actually care about it

Yeah he's skipping over the fact that windows 10 was when windows really started to be aggressive about advertising and anti-privacy measures. I agree that it's UX was pretty good, but it had big issues on other fronts

That is a fucking awful suggestion for someone who just switched from windows lol. And I say that as someone who uses Arch (btw) as a daily driver

Arch is great for power users and hobbyists, but I can't think of a quicker way to turn a casual user off Linux lol. Ubuntu wouldn't necessarily have been my first choice either, but it's a perfectly serviceable windows replacement

Yeah if you have a costume on, that's all I need to know

If you don't have a costume, I'll use the special bowl of candy full of Almond Joy's..

No, nor can you print the battery, motors, flight computer, trans receiver or basically anything other than the frame.

I love my 3d printer, but honestly when people talk about 3d printed weapons I always cringe, 3d printers can't make weapons (well, I guess you could make a plastic rondel dagger or something, doubt it'd work well though), they make plastic. When people talk about 3d printed guns, I don't think that most people realize that the only 3d printed parts are usually the exterior frame of the gun, the parts that make it an actual gun are still made from metal and purchased.

Edit: and before anyone says it, yes you can 3d print metal, but not with anything you're going to find in someone's house - for the cost of an SLS metal printer, you could buy all the usual metal working equipment to just make a gun the old fashioned way

Are those real?? And even if they are, id imagine they're for married couples, not a serial killer and his rando fans
