I think the first claim is cover for the 2nd. if they admit there are uncommanded discharges, their reputation is decimated and they will lose an entire batch of lawsuits. If they dont do anything, guns will keep uncommanded-discharging unt

The modern philosophy for a defense gun is that the holster is the safety. The holsters make it impossible to pull the trigger, and hold the gun securely all day. They are all supposed to be "drop safe" although there are some e

They are in a peculiar logical pickle: admit the gun is defective and lose all their current lawsuits plus many more that will dogpile on. Plus take a devastating hit to future sales. Or deny it, saving face and relying on FUD that the disc

I think what this is really about is the ability to manipulate elections. Panopticon surveillance means it will inevitably dig up dirt on a presidential or other candidate somewhere down the line. Then once they have a shot at winning, pull

There's no curiosity or intellect featured here anymore. It's just bickering about semantics or pedantry. If that doesn't anger you, great. That's like a toddler saying they don't mind sharing a pool with other kids

Just in the first week of switching back, I turned off ipv6 DHCP on my router. I left ipv4 unchanged. ( The reason is that I want to switch to ipv6 someday and I want to run my own v6 DHCP and dns). 24 hours later, my fedora Linux host name
