Am chemist can confirm, I would look at a coworker real funny if they said un-ionized

I hope to never use them against a person
Me too. The absolute last thing I want, again as a staunch gun advocate, is to ever have to use it in a real life situation for about a half dozen reasons.
I took a concealed carry class to get my permit some years ago, which I recommend even if your state doesn't require a CC permit. They had a retired sheriff and a lawyer for two of the instructors, they went through multiple scenarios of both when do you use it and what will happen afterward. I NEVER want to have to fire a firearm in self defense, I will but I literally have to feel like my life or the life of someone else is in IMMEDIATE danger. Even then you run the risk of missing and hitting an innocent bystander, police typically only have a 70% hit rate across 2 shots (unverified, could be wrong).
God damn right! If you are new to guns though please go take a safety class first, the hunter safety course (even if you don't hunt) is a wonderful intro imo, and typically free/cheap. Took it when I was 11ish and it did a great job getting me in the mindset of always being conscious of where I point the muzzle of my firearms.
All this is from a pretty staunch gun advocate too (although I am extremely open to and encourage discussions around how to regulate them a bit more).
I had a point in here somewhere but I’m so tired i lost it so feel free use your imagination
Fuck I feel this, I have to delete comments halfway through writing them sometimes because I meandered too far from the original point and forgot was I was trying to say
Yeah I never understood the hate but today I did read a comment saying Canonical (the company that develops Ubuntu) had injected some amazon telemetry into one of the search functionalities, that and using Snap is what makes some people shit on it. I didn't verify the telemetry thing FYI.
I can definitely understand people being upset at telemetry injections.
The above is to say I don't think it's exclusively people gate keeping, dome people have legitimate issues with it.I haven't seen people shit on mint a lot and it's an easy distro. Honestly most people are super supportive of mint. That being said there is definitely some amount of gatekeeping.
Trump lies every time he speaks, it's the expectation and he met it. That's not news. Biden showed up looking like he was on death's door when he hadn't before, that is news.
It's not right wing narrative. After I watched the debate I was pissed and felt like the Biden administration had hid the fact that Biden isn't in a condition to be president because that's what happened.
Trump didn't have any coherent answers but you could at least hear him
Man only 1 in 5 people left Twitter in the US? A bit disappointing....
It's technically like 15.7M , it's the highest concentration you can get before you hit fuming (~70wt% iirc). Although anything you do with it after makes it fume like crazy anyway.
They may have, I do believe the amazon union is super new (like last 2 years i think?) so I would guess every year that passes they should have more and more power, it's fairly new and relatively small. All that is to say they will probably keep trying these and as the union grows it should be more and more effective until they actually have so many striking that amazon will have to negotiate.
Was he the one caught smoking crack?
