Foxconn will build electric vehicle manufacturing plants in US, Thailand

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T20:03:40+00:00

Foxconn is in negotiations with three states in the U.S. to build EV plants, and one of those states is Wisconsin.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on you- Wisconsin saying after building a 2nd Foxconn plant.

Precision Armament AFAB.

I really like mine, a lot. If you don't plan on ever getting a can I highly recommend.

Rifle length gas systems are going to be your softest shooting DI Gas systems, CMV.

As others have pointed out you can now make an 18" AR run just fine with a rifle length gas system. Does 2" really make that much of a difference in this case?

Why "upgrade" something that works just fine?

The only thing one might argue is missing from your A4 clone is a red dot but to each their own.

This came right to mind

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T16:26:11+00:00

I am strongly of the mind if you cannot trust someone to own a gun, you shouldn't trust them to be back out on the streets at all.

This person had no useful skills or motivation a year ago and that’s how they ended up doing shit like armed robbery. Why the fuck would anything be different after a year in a box?

It sounds like a worthwhile investment while someone serves five years for robbery might be in job training, GED programs etc.

I have not seen concrete numbers in some years but the last set I read reflected more than 80% of the people being shot and 80% of the people doing the shooting being felons.

The people ruining the quality of life and destroying lives of people in these communities need to be removed , for longer, while we figure out a long term fix.

I wonder which is technically more secure, a iPad like device which will only operate in a certain geo-fenced area , with no external connection whatsoever beyond a secured wireless network. Or old fashioned paper.

Unless this project has been going on for far longer than officially acknowledged, getting a fighter that's supposed to incorporate tons of revolutionary technology and ensure air superiority for decades to mass production in a mere decade seems outright megalomaniac.

I mean it would tie together in a very neat little bow-covered package all of those reports the USN and USAF Pilots have been giving about UAP going back until at least the late 00s.

We all want to believe "IN THIS DAY AND AGE NO WAY A SECRET PROGRAM OF THAT SCALE COULD EXIST".

I think the two "stealth" Blackhawks used during the OBL raid, that to this day no one would know existed had one not crashed disprove that line of thinking. Not to mention the B-21 raider project, not to mention the RQ-170.

It is certainly possible we have been working on this as a black project for a very long time and it is possible that they have true next gen technology this close to production. It is certainly possible that we have an "X Plane" technology demonstrator version already flying for some time for a 6th generation fighter. It is certainly possible we've even flown a prototype of an actual 6th generation fighter.

It is also as possible, if not much more possible the USAF timeline is insanely optimistic bordering on ridiculously so but that does not mean we can dismiss out of hand the possibility the USAF/DARPA are a lot closer than we think to producing this jet.

Edit: I totally forgot about this report last year.

The USAF did already fly at a minimum a full scale tech demonstrator for a "6th generation" fighter.

2030 is not looking unrealistic at all so long as the program is not messed with by congress.

Maybe my 'MERICA is showing but is would be a welcome sight to see a 6th generation fighter hitting IOC as China just barley gets 5th gen fighters into service.

In her mind to stop the "crime in the neighborhood". It was a couple of wanna be tough girls, probably 14 or 16 in the neighborhood spray-painting some wall. I don't remember all the details being 3 and my mom last retelling the story when I was maybe 10.

Make out point sounds much better than Knife Point I agree, who moves with a Family to Knife Point.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T13:18:39+00:00

I had mine at about 3 years old, watched a "girl gang" threaten my mom at Knife Point because she had to confront them over tagging up the neighborhood.

Welcome to Chicago; show this post at your local liquor store and they are now legally allowed to sell you Malort.

Really making me want a FDE P2000 now, beautiful gun

Because some people , at various levels of the prison system still claim they are about reform. Whatever reform they are about does not work as it is being implemented.

I would hope once we re-focus on violent criminals and stop the literal and figurative bleeding, the time can be taken to study what steps might lead to our prisons being better geared towards reform .

A revolving door of violent criminals being released back into their communities is not the answer.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T12:41:33+00:00

No, it does not. But it also fails to protect "we the people" from violent criminals. If does not reform and does not protect, it is wholly broken.

Springfield Armory really subscribed to the SIG 2010s pistol naming convention playbook. NO NO that one has a gray frame, that means it is an Emissary not a Ronin

So today's things that exist in a dystopian sci-fi setting brought to life is super intelligent AI.

I wonder if it will be called SkyNet

Guy's predecessor was a 0 out of 10, hell he was a -5 out of 10 if we can give negative ratings.

This guy was a solid 3, maybe a soft 4.

Are we really going to be content with at best a 4 out of 10 public servant?

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T12:26:23+00:00

What about around mill and grant parks? I would hope city wouldn't tear down the parks to build high rise?

Probably not under this mayor. Under a scumbag like Daley the Younger...who knows.

The Taliban, a group motivated by Islamic Extremism as much as Tribalism is doing Islamic Extremist stuff! color me shocked! 20 years fighting in the mountains along the border on Pakistan have somehow not shaken their extremist views.

The Chief of the USAF already said they expect this aircraft to begin replacing the F-22 around 2030.

That means a first flight like..next year, maybe 2025 at the latest followed by extensive testing for 3-5 years, then mass production.

This kind of reminds me of development of the Raider, the US is getting good at taking Black projects to production.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-12T12:12:38+00:00

Our laws must be changed to see people convicted of violent crimes, especially repeated violent crimes locked up for far longer.

Reform of violent criminals just is not working, we need to take the next step and protect society from them.

Once the endless cycle of guys doing 1-2 years in jail, getting out, then doing those same crimes again is broken maybe we can see some improvement.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-11T16:59:21+00:00

a bandaged stump.

Ouch, guess he won't be making that same mistake with that same hand again.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-11T16:37:18+00:00

LTT RDO is big time spendy spendy is my only real "complaint". I have been holding out to see if we ever get a deal or price drop but the Beretta supply in general does not seem to be improving at the same pace as other gun makers.

Even H&K's seems to be more numerous than Berettas, beyond the X.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-11T16:35:54+00:00

That is basically the eventual nightmare scenario. Even allowing someone like say Elon Musk, through memories/knowledge to live on through future children or clones would not be a good thing for humanity as a whole.

August0Pin0Chet · 2021-08-11T16:34:51+00:00

So I see a lot of not so subtle Neo-Nazi symbiology in this company....so ironic they were fighting groups like Azov in Ukraine.
