Wow, talk about moving goal posts… You were all enraged with his conflating Walmart and private sales, but have no problems making up stuff that I didn’t say.
As for online sales: “According to the ATF, any unlicensed person -meaning not a Federal Firearms Licensee- may transfer a firearm to another unlicensed person residing in the same state as long as that person is not barred from owning a gun. This means it’s perfectly legal under federal law to transfer your gun to another person without any extra steps as long as they are allowed to own a firearm. There is no federal requirement for having a license to do so, and you don’t need to fill out any paperwork. As long as you’re both residents of the same state, your transaction is essentially unrestricted.”

So how about state laws you ask?
“Private Transfers of Firearms Wyoming does not regulate private sales and transfers of firearms”.

Because you can buy guns at Walmart, maybe not in California, but they sell guns in approximately half of their stores in the US.
You can also go to gun shows and buy guns without a background check.
But of course you’re correct, he was wrong, It’s not as easy as going to Walmart to get a gun without a background check. It’s actually MUCH EASIER than that in more than half the US. You can just go online and pay for someone to send you a gun without any background check, site unseen, from the comfort of your own home.

I agree with that. The only caveat I have is that if you are a junior, entry level, or even just an underpaid developer being asked to work on “mission critical” code, then that code is not “mission critical”. It is code that management is obligated to provide but gives no real fucks about.

Much like a bar mitzvah or quinceañera signals the beginning of the transition from childhood to adulthood, there is the junior to senior transition for developers. It often starts with the realization that the most recent in a long line of super critical bugs you are working on has been sitting around untouched for weeks and is only now “critical” because a customer has bitched about it not being fixed. The best part is when you follow the progress of the bug and see that your fix doesn’t get touched by anyone for months because there never was an actual customer bitching about it in the first place, it was just some sales person or VP flexing their power because they felt ignored. So the bug got squeezed it into the already over packed production cycle by making it “mission critical” and assigning it to someone too junior to realize that it’s bullshit work.

Have you ever been to giggletown, because I will take you to giggletown, if you dare.

Tell me that you have never worked on anything even remotely ”mission critical" without actually saying it…

Research and fact checking is what separates journalists from hacks.
“Journalist” implies factual information, not science fiction. If someone writes a “news” story about the magic land of Xanth because they can’t tell the difference between a Piers Anthony novel and a scientific study it’s not Piers Anthony’s fault for being too “tricky”.

Woo, woo, chugga, chugga, choo, choo

I am sure that they have, but there’s a lot more to it than just that. They have to consider long term maintenance, safety, and availability of parts.

Water is known and well established, you can buy a lot of stuff right off the shelf and we know it’s short and long term dangers. Everything else gets expensive and unknown very quickly.

Clinton was the one that started selling off the helium reserves. Obama signed something that changed shit about it, so he certainly didn’t do anything to help the situation.

They are a bunch of bullies who bully other people. Bullying is nothing new, if anything it’s a mark of pride. No, what they can’t deal with is not fitting in, somehow being different. This is why they are antivax. They would rather have dead kids than some neurodiverse weirdos. Also dead children give you a huge sympathy bonus, whereas a weird kid gets you uninvited from get togethers.

So, if you really want to upset them you have to point out just how weird their weird shit is.

Well, you know… I never thought about that… That son of bitch!

Also an accurate description of the 2 hours immediately following my consuming taco bell.

Ya, but this is not a truck any more than the Hyundai Santa Cruz is a truck. It’s UTE. And anyone who does this to their Santa Cruz would also deserve to be mocked.

You have to remember to keep your remote clean. Some people never clean their remotes and he ends up pushing them all over the house trying to lick the remotes clean.

It’s nothing crazy. He just spends a couple of weeks following you around and going through your stuff when you aren’t home.

I mean, basic math already showed us that the majority didn’t want him in office either time. But even with all of the shady shit and even straight up election fraud he couldn’t have won without the votes from a large number of people who purposely chose the hate filled pedophile option.

Oh sweet baby Jesus… 🤦…
Uhm thanks for pointing that out…

The word was supposed to be “weird” and there’s no sane way, no matter how badly I smashed my big fat appendages across the screen, that spell correct could have thought I meant to type “wet”, but yet somehow that’s what it chose.

My phone finally forced me to let it update to the newer os stuffed full of ai, and now does some insanely weird spell corrections. It will even sometimes change words that I have spelled correctly to things that mean something completely different. But this one is a real beauty. Honestly, it’s so fucked up that I am just going to leave it.

You conservatives spend an insane amount of time thinking about and making shit up about children’s genitals. It’s so fucking wet and creepy.

I wasn’t trying to judge anyone. I’m just saying that I think it is best to know what you are signing up for before you commit. I am sure that the lack of a stinger is just as upsetting to someone who was looking to get stung as finding a stinger when you are allergic to stings.

I know what you mean, I also often wonder what it would have been like if you had different parents.
