You would only make the lower with a 3d printer. Here is an example: http://hackaday.com/2012/07/26/3d-printed-ar-15-lower-works/ You would still want metal for the barrel (of course) and trigger assembly. Pretty much anything taht routes

A firearm shop will sell you the gun, but they won't pull the trigger for you. What about the torrent applications like uTorrent, Transmission, rTorrent, etc? Are they equally as guilty in your eyes?

We already subsidize Big Cable, and they have a wonderful history of taking the money and running (with damn near zero repercussions). Kansas City seems to have tried something different, and Google is actually holding up their end of the b

Hah, I just recovered some data from a banned account. It's kind of nice, because it at least contained my comment from when we sang Bohemian Rhapsody in the "Kid drugged up from dentist" thread. Quite nostalgic.

One point to make: I didn't give you any downmods, because I can't and refuse to do so. Let me see if I can explain this in more detail. I'm not saying the android market is perfect, nor am I saying that the iOS market is an ideal solution.

The logical fallacy here is the assumption that the guidelines imposed by apple won't lead to straight up draconian rules, which they almost already have. There is a reason why utopias do not exist.

I really despise the usage of a "Slippery Slope" claim, but I think that this really embodies the idea. We have enough problems as is with anti-malware software throwing false positives, so who is to say that Apple can do any better? Likewi

This is one thing I don't understand. Do the modern day followers of various religions not realize that they were founded by borderline drunks and psychonauts? These people don't just "talk to the gods" while completely sober; they're raile

I'd say that this is even more valid for home servers. Of the 7 spare boxes I have, five are 5+ years old while two are 2 year old shit home laptops (Inspiron yay!). These were all under $50 a piece when you factor in that 3 were free. All

I don't get it sometimes. Are articles like this a result of a huge supply of terrible managers, or are they the result of managers with too much time to spend blogging about what should be painfully obvious. I've never been in a work envir

I completely agree! I just wanted to point out that the problem goes far deeper than a specific demographic. It's a societal issue on a national scale, possibly (probably) even more broad.

DefCon or 5 million college bars across the country? You could have replaced those two terms and ended up with the same article. Perhaps the problem isn't just a nerd demographic issue.

I've read the article about 4 times now, and I still have no idea what the point of the title was. You didn't learn to program in 23 years or 10 weeks. I'm an employed CS grad, and I still don't "know" how to program. Don't mistake this as
