[Citation needed] It wasn't a 700 hour training program for teachers to use guns. It was a peace officer training course (Law Enforcement Officer). Maybe 24 hours isn't enough, but that's 3 days of coursework normally. As opp

Money !== speech, but money is essential to speech. I can say things, but if people can't hear me, because I can't spend the money to get that speech out, does it really matter? The other thing I hear a lot is: corporations aren&#

You can cut a key in half without literally cutting it in half. Like: generate random 256bit number, xor with the key, and hand the random number to one party, and the xor'd value to the other party.

Fifth: the password is testimony. It's searching their things, but the warrant issued by the court means that it's likely a reasonable search (ergo, not a violation of the 4th).

The Ioniq5/EV6 adapter only plugs into the J1772 port. This is not how the F-150 works for V2H. The F-150 hooks into the CCS pins underneath the J1772 plug, and mostly likely uses the same digital signaling used for CCS, instead of the

Naval catapults don't apply force to the main gear either. Mostly is to the nose gear now, but it used to through the use of bridles to points on the wing (and wing spar). The bridles were a pain though, so they transitioned everything

Better solution that b64 the files is just make a zip file from the attachments with them in folders by the name of the entry. That said, I don't use the attachments feature (If I need to securely store files, I store them elsewhere).

Asians are white when it's unhelpful to the narrative for them to be a minority. See also "underrepresented minority", which translates to: non-Asian minority.

Yes, but if you cut out the wasteful spending, you can redirect that funding to not wasteful things. What spending is wasteful is another question entirely.

I'm using mine in part as a homekit bridge. Some of my smart home stuff doesn't play nice with homekit, but I can connect it up to HASS, and then I'm able to open my garage door from my phone easily.

There's no such thing as a "collective right". Every other right guaranteed in the Constitution applies to an individual. Also, "assault weapon" is a term that means whatever the gun grabbers want it to mean today.

A problem with very long range ASMs is targeting: how do you make sure the target is still within the field of view of your seeker when the missile gets to the target area, and how do you make sure it's actually the target? This is a m
