Yeah, somewhere along the line, we decided in America we can have profits without risks. As well, we believe you can make money with nothing more than money itself.
Making guns at home is as American as apple pie.
What does 2.0 offer me that 1.0 doesn’t? I know it has new features, but I want a good argument for those features actually being useful.
Real whistleblowers go into exile or jail, not the hot seat before congress to advocated for exactly what FB has said it want. Y’know, like Snowden, or Manning. Not like Vindman, Ciaramella, or Haugen, who receive widespread support of everyone.
You know, this really isn’t a valid experiment. If you do the probability calculations then 2-3 draws is all you need. All this is based on the assumption getting red or grey is high probability, >90%.
This is exactly how distributors do defect testing on lots incoming goods.
Hitting the nail on the head.
I don’t think you understand what it means for the inflation rate to be above the return rate of promissory notes, but the only incentive to buy such notes is to prop the system with the belief this is temporary—otherwise, by definition, you are just throwing money away (sans considerations of ownership).
Exactly what everyone needs--truth handed down from on high. /s
But I hesitate to bring that up, because I don’t believe there is ANY moral ambiguity for the use of firearms for sporting purposes. Ambiguity only arises in the face of human conflict.
I will defend the ownership, possession, use and carry of firearms on the specific grounds that they ARE tools with the express purpose of hurting, maiming and killing. The specific justification in the US Constitution for citizen ownership of arming of a militia. I also oppose the use of professional militaries as I believe they are corrupt. Fundamentally professional armies have an incentive misalignment: fight for pay, not, fight for something “virtuous”. Therefore “don’t bite the hand that feeds”.
Moreover, the rights of the first amendment can only ensured by the use of force, ultimately, by those exercising said rights. The first amendment is meaningless without the second.
We can count the rounds fired this year alone probably number great than the whole conflict in Afghanistan, all lawful use, but I want to highlight that a GUN is useful being a GUN, not a hobby tool for target practice. If it’s merely a sporting device, well then you should be happy when they take away the guns as we still have airsoft and crossbows for sporting purposes.
No, we defend firearms for what they are and justify them on that use: Force, or the threat of force.
2. We don’t nuke each other all the time either. But “God made man and Colt made ‘em equal”—the gun is an equalizer.
I think people in America think we’re some united hegemony, believing all the same thing. No. We don’t. We all have different views and are pursuing happiness differently. Sometimes this pursuit leads to injury of someone else’s pursuit of happiness. Guns, along with education, give people the means of preventing and give meaningful deterrence to those who would disrupt their rightful pursuit of happiness.
Also, guns in the US are used nearly a million times a year to prevent violence (CDC, https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/firearms/fastfact.htm...)
Finally, regarding unintentional killings: that’s why I said education on guns in necessary. Regarding unlawfulness: you must have your head in the sand to think a criminal isn’t already committed to breaking the law.
Guns for everyone.
This is why I’m growing more and more discontent with HN.
Either it was unpopular with the crowd, or the mods. Either way, though, f** manipulated discourse and whoever is instrumentally responsible.
Most plugins these days are stable, and don’t crash. I haven’t had issues in like 10 years honestly. At least if you’re paying for them from groups who have a reputation.
Git for a music project would be detrimental, going to be really honest.
Linux can run things just fine. JACK has been a relatively stable audio platform. RT pre-emption can help. The only issue with Linux I see is software support. But with Apple making some less than stellar choices, I expect linux to become more important to the daw/digital recording ecosystem
One fantastic one that does work well on linux (reaper) also has a scripting interface. Not a CLI but actually more useful.
