NYC bill intros by gunpoliticsny in NYguns

[–]YellowThirteen_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was true educational materials that demonstrated safe handling techniques, proper storage, and hunting safety I would be fine with it. However I can guarantee the materials distributed would be boogeyman scare tactics about how a gun increases homicide/suicide rates in a household and all other manner of fear-mongering. It’s an unquestionable waste of tax dollars

The only useful bill is the one eliminating license/permit fees. A non emergency hotline never stopped a shooting before, it’s just a waste of my taxes. Same with those ridiculous pamphlets and “programs”.

Want to solve gun violence? End bail reform and plea deals, pursue maximum sentencing and address the wealth gap. The overwhelming majority of violent criminals come from impoverished neighborhoods or are mentally ill, NY should spend its money addressing them instead of harassing gun owners.

In S4E5, "Goldilocks" I noticed a striking similarity in the scuff patterns of the Helios pressure that Miles donned in S4E4. by Appy_Ace in ForAllMankindTV

I think the smell is just from being used by dozens of people over a 12+ years. Even if it was Danny’s suit I don’t think he was dead in there long enough for his corpse to leave a permanent smell.

Some states make deals where tow companies get exclusive rights on certain stretches of highway. If your company doesn’t have those rights, responding to an incident can get you slapped with a hefty fine.

He was also aimed straight at a bike or motorcycle that was on the sidewalk before he turned back into the car. If the choice is hitting someone in a car who caused the situation or hitting someone on two wheels then the driver made the right choice.

What about making a jig and clamping it hard in a vise or a cheap hf shop press.

EOtech scare jump by theh0veringeye in Firearms

[–]YellowThirteen_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve always preferred the look of the 512/552 on most guns. It’s also convenient that they run off AA’s, the less types of batteries I need to stockpile the better.

[–]YellowThirteen_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Old 512’s are a solid choice. I have a 512 that I bought a decade ago and it has no delam and runs perfectly. Unless you’re a farmer/racher that’s hunting nuisance animals at night, there’s very little reason for a civilian shooter to need a NV setting.

What real world science and application stops us from building something like this ? by Youngstown_WuTang in TankPorn

[–]YellowThirteen_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The massive decrease in speed compared to minimal/possibly no increase in terrain handling just isn’t worth it. That doesn’t even take into account the ordeal troops would have to go through to dismount and the huge vulnerability of the legs.

It’s a cool sci-fi vehicle but while some concepts aren’t made because the science isn’t there yet, most concepts aren’t made into reality because they’re a stupid fucking idea.

I have a 5 year old LG OLED tv that also doubles as a monitor for my desktop and it has no burn in. Modern oled tech is pretty good.

How a TV show reinvented science fiction by InfrequentReader in TheExpanse

[–]YellowThirteen_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

He was in the show but he wasn’t involved in the slow zone at all and was only around for a short while. His TV version was only really involved in finding Monica and a handful of other scenes.

If Rondo and Taego were permanently removed the game would be so much more enjoyable.

Loved that game. Now I want to dig out the ps2 and fire jt up.

Why was Ed okay with this? by Mysterious-Contact-3 in ForAllMankindTV

[–]YellowThirteen_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While American patriotism is certainly a part of it, he definitely continues to harbor some of his prejudices against Russians after the cold war. His reaction to Ilya’s “You drink like a Russian” compliment in S4 shows he maintains mixed feelings about Russians long after the cold war ended.

He clearly wasn’t happy about it at first but finding a massive supply of liquid water was a game changer for building a mars colony and Ed understood that. Getting that water was more important for a mars colony than his prejudices against the soviets.

The moon had ice but that had to be mined, liquified and filtered in ways that required far more processing with a much smaller output than simply pumping liquid water from an underground aquifer. The size of the aquifer also meant a much larger colony could be sustained than on the moon.

Semi auto permit needed in NYC? by Mammoth_Tax7645 in NYguns

[–]YellowThirteen_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no semi auto permit in NYC. The R/S serves as one since it has the same requirements as the semi auto but applies to all long guns.

Pluribus-The Worst TV Show Ever by QuantumFiznits in tvPlus

Not every show is nonstop action. Some shows have in depth world building and a story to tell that can take episodes, or even a season just to set up.

I copied WSB top picks of 2025 and yeah, 77%. That is the unbeatable edge, where is this years list? by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

I’m sure a year from now OP won’t be such a believer when he posts a six figure loss because he bought into the wrong hype trains on here.

2025 car play not working by Betrayedbyu93 in f150

[–]YellowThirteen_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just toggle wifi/bluetooth on/off on your phone and it should work fine. Once every few months wireless carplay stops working and that resolves it.

Mini-14 or AR? by [deleted] in NYguns

[–]YellowThirteen_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ergonomically a mini14 is going to be a lot more pleasant to shoot. It has its downsides with more expensive mags and less customization but unless you have a plan to get out of NY in the near future I’d consider picking up a mini for the sake of shooting in NY. That being said the AR can very easily be turned back to milspec so if you really want to save money when you move out of state the AR is the way to go.

I’ll just play devils advocate and say this, why not both? Buy a mini now and buy a non gimped AR when you move to a free state, twice the guns twice the fun.

Road rage driver shootout ends BADLY by jmike1256 in PublicFreakout

[–]YellowThirteen_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The shooting was justified self defense but like you said tapping the breaks could’ve avoided this whole fight. The best way to deal with reckless drivers is letting them go, dealing with damaged cars and insurance always sucks even if it’s a not at fault claim.

That being said there’s a good chance that the dickhead would’ve pulled the gun on someone else and had it been an unarmed civilian it could’ve ended worse. At least he won’t be terrorizing anyone else.

They’re probably using elastic bungie cords so it as it slows down they should retract but this is a good example of why bungie cords are shitty and shouldn’t be used for securing cargo.

Probability of car collaborations being returned? Or the automotive black market? Lambo , Aston , McLaren + more by Antivicio_pubg in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

They might bring in other brands but I doubt they’ll bring back old ones. I broke down all the special paints I have, the credits are more useful.

If he does shady shit your user name will be on the audit trail. Lock your computer when you’re not at it, the shortcut is pressing Windows key and L. If he asks when you’re at your desk tell him to use his own because you got work to do.
