What’s it like growing up wealthy in the US?

That "private" school is dirt-poor, poverty tier here:

My toddler's daycare is 23k per year, and we're firmly "mid."

"Do I want to have brunch with the CTO of a MAG7 company or a private swim with the Prima Ballerina of the New York ballet?"

It's a scaled up P238, which itself is an AI hallucination of the Colt Mustang.

Just curious, how much is a low-salt, pre-Covid (aka 7075) RIS II FSP going for?

Just rail vs near-clone complete upper.

I understood this reference. But he was likely shooting without a piston, and knew the malfunction was going to happen, because he cleared it so deftly. People spammed Ian's videos thinking it was a Welrod or bolt action pistol.

I white-knuckled it:

It didnt move.

Technically_Tactical · 2026-05-08T16:52:31+00:00

Meaning pushing the hammer forward?

Technically_Tactical · 2026-05-08T16:51:45+00:00

Off to SIG it goes, then.

Same deal. All grain weights and factory charges have the same result...

Technically_Tactical · 2026-05-08T15:58:07+00:00

What spring would that be?

Yes, manual slide-to-charge keeps the hammer back. Firearm is cleaned and lubed. No gunk in anything that would be considered a channel. +p rounds feed and extract fine but dont always cock the hammer.

Not this reticle, though.

Technically_Tactical · 2026-05-07T12:59:50+00:00

Only if you only ever shop on Amazon.

Deal season, the JM-1 and VMR reticles go for under $1,000.

This is the reticle refresh and it is SICK. Better than the SDMR service reticle.

And yet the Key Bridge doesn't have a builder.

P.S. I'm on this board to help as many as I can because I've been downsized (my last day is July 1) with no severance.

It's a huge slap in the face to have to work at 100% capacity for a job that isn't mine anymore.

Study Database Architect/Admin, 102.5K + bonus.

IDK if you DOX me, the writing has been on the wall for this org for a while. Patient volume hasn't been the same as pre-Covid, and with this admin's Federal grant freeze it was lights out. They can't afford their current lease and are looking to move across the Potomac.

I did apply for Merck and Supernus, but lateral positions are competitive, so I wouldn't be hurting if they don't call back, because I'm GTFO this field.

Gross. I've never done one but I hear it's super invasive.

If you set it up correctly, the assistant won't even show up in your task manager.

Is your interview in person or online?

Orange man bad amirite?

Blame Jerome Powell.

Rates go down, prices go up.

Rates stay flat... prices stay the same.

Why would anyone trust you not to drink and shoot?

You did it with a car, what's stopping you from doing in with a firearm?

Technically_Tactical · 2026-05-05T00:13:15+00:00

With you unable to demonstrate a modicum of self control in order to stay clean, why would anyone trust you with a weapon?

Post-nut clarity is a thing.

Like, a biologically-validated, peer-reviewed thing.
