>What, so [pulling] the trigger automatically disengages the safety? Correct. There's a few other internal safeties to help ensure it doesn't go off unless someone is pulling the trigger and (hopefully) intending to fire. It&#x

Yep, a large aspect of flashcards when studying or the occasions when in college they allow you to bring notes to exams involves the aspect of personally curating the material and thinking about it during the process. Perhaps the gpt can fi
