I don't see anything about SBA in the articles above.

they thought the bird came from Turkey iirc, that's why it's named like that. πŸ¦ƒ

usually when politicians use Signal it's because they don't want their messages FOIA'd or audited. I can't really imagine Vance or Hegseth worrying about that, though, which makes me wonder if it's just horrible opsec, if they can't be bothered to use a SCIF or what?

fun fact: Windows uses 9p for bridging the Windows and Linux filesystems with WSL2. the devs had excellent taste in protocols.

you're right, apparently. from Wikipedia:

The U.S. Army defines assault rifles as "short, compact, selective-fire weapons that fire a cartridge intermediate in power between submachine gun and rifle cartridges."

AR-15 is semi-auto rather than selective fire, so it's not an assault rifle. I had mistakenly conflated assault rifles with "assault weapons," which is a separate (and more vague and contested) term.

you can still buy an M-16 or AK-47, but it has to be transferrable (grandfathered in before FOPA) and you need extra paperwork.

you can buy an AR-15 in any gun store. they even make a "JR-15," for kids. no, I'm not kidding.

that they're willing to let some of their kids die rather than get a vaccine they think might turn them trans or autistic shows how much they value the lives of trans and autistic people.

I had a bong as a freshman. I cleaned it with acetone. I then had several tubes instead.

darkly hilarious that all they had to do was put a red bar behind the "APPROVE" and it tricked the three remaining brain cells of their viewers.

My passport got "corrected" to M after being stuck in weeks of bureaucratic limbo and waiting hours at the passport agency. One of the agents even told me I should just accept it so that way I'd be able to leave the country.

Yeah, I dreamed of EZIC.
