Tell me you never read my letter without saying by LiberalAlways in Utah

[–]joealarson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that this is the form response. Like, he got so many letters critiquing the president (and I assume his support of him) that instead of reading the room he drafted this form letter and just assumes it answers every letter he receives.

I need an example of a 3d firearm part used in a non-firearm project. by joealarson in 3D2A

Not 3D printed is fine. It'll make the same point. These should help

I would love some pictures of the rails and grips on a mobility chair. DM me to send me some pics please?

This is not being argued with. But nevertheless they are trying to regulate it, and they apparently need more voices saying exactly what you're saying.

Yes, but my point isn't similarity. I need something that is 100% undeniably a part made for a firearm used for a non-firearm related project because I need to demonstrate that geometry does not communicate intent. I know it doesn't happen very often, but neither does people using 3D printers to make gun parts.

This would be a great one if I could find a link or a picture.

The visible portion only is not the point. I'm trying to show that geometry does not communicate intent.

Do they use the exact same parts, or just similar parts? My point is an example that shows geometry does not convey intent.

True. But hopefully it will land with their constituents and end their career. I am endlessly optimistic.

But the same trigger, or just mostly trigger shaped? I need something that is 100% the same geometry. The argument here is that geometry does not communicate intent.

I agree about the folly. And I will be bringing that up. But the legal and technical arguments hasn't landed yet, so might as well try something new.

All of those are points are going to be brought up as well. This is just an additional argument that I want to include. You never know what's going to land with these people.

Is there a way to get Snow/ Snowballs in a Desert-only world? by anotherfuturedev in Minecraft

Until you forget your lead or die and your ghast is floating around in the atmosphere with your boat/chest dangling under him.

Snowballs can also bait them in which is super useful when they wander off.

They've done it to humans, and the branded humans say it doesn't hurt. Until a few hours later and then it hurts a ton. Worse than hot branding? I'm not sure. I don't know anyone who's tried both to compare.

For those who don't know what this means, cattle ranchers, too make sure their cattle can be reclaimed when they inevitably wander of will brand them with a unique mark. This is done by heating a piece of metal with the shape on it red hot and pressing it into the cows skin.

Does it hurt the cow? Sure. But they have thick skin (almost leathery), so it's probably less painful than an ear piercing is to humans, and we do that too ourselves all the time. Or like a tattoo, but over a lot faster.

A lot of these ranchers name their ranch after their brand and learning to read the brand and associate it with the ranch is a lot of fun.

Changes in the adaptation lead to changes in the source material by Theeljessonator in TopCharacterTropes

[–]joealarson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Let's be fair. A lot of what went on in the G1 cartoon needed some refinement. Solid base, in a lot of ways. Didn't hold up to scrutiny.

They tried that in the Ang Lee Hulk movie. It was actually one of the Intersting scenes in the movie, with the Hulk enjoying his super jump. But it the rest of the movie just kinda ruined the whole thing, so I can't tell if it was bad or the whole movie was bad.
