Those masks and them carrying weapons is an automatic felony in my jurisdiction and any shop owner pleading stand your ground would be praised by the community. They don’t like immigrants here, but they hate the federal government even more.

Definitely don’t call 911. That just gives them more backup. They look like terrorists in the streets. It’s actually illegal here to wear a mask over your face while demonstrating or armed so they are under stand your ground territory

Do we really believe that the kind of people who sign up for the military have this much reasoning ability?

The whole point is to mould them into unquestioning footsoldiers.

They aren’t as bad as police who have to actively try whereas someone can just “fall” into the army. But still, they are enemy combatants and can’t be expected to follow reason.

It is 100% there.

It’s legal because of the 16th amendment.

No, more like the differences in lenses, how they pull focus, the light they let in and f stop for the shutter.

The film Matters too, but since OP specifically asked about vintage equipment, film was a given

Army of the Dead has a super small focal point due to the lenses JJ Abrams used and it is a noticeable affect all through the movie.

The parts won’t work if you mess with the computer anymore than they will with Apple. You can hack into it and be malicious, which is what you’re talking about doing here

They certainly do tell you which parts you can add to your car that will void the warranty or make it illegal to drive on the street

Within the past week I’ve had to listen to 2 people talk about how Apple products were such shit because they couldn’t access their accounts or get into their things for work because they had forgotten their password or fucked up their two factor authentication.

These are the exact kind of people who will download some game just randomly off the Internet because they don’t have to pay for it and then when their phone fucks up, they will blame Apple

Yeah. I have no idea what the article is about because I don’t know what munching is. But the ArsTechnica headline gives me more contextual info

But doesn’t that possibly speak as much to people wanting to read something from a website with which they are more familiar with a more streamlined approach at providing the information?

There are plenty of features I see that run thousands of words that I don’t have time to read so I just catch a one or two paragraph summary posted somewhere else. Basically stealing the headline. It’s what journalism is now. Everyone just steals and uses it as clickbait. WhatsApp is on the top of YouTube suggestions for me even though I don’t subscribe
