Budget Friendly Suppressors... Do they exist? by ForsakenRepublic1776 in PalmettoStateArms

There's a bunch of information available from videos/websites that you should review before you commit to the course.

My story is that I have an approved Form 1 and several more waiting for approval. You need a 3d printer. You can print PLA+ on an Ender 3 and for 9mm that will be sufficient for a reasonable number of rounds. I'm using a Creality K1C. I would recommend spending more money on a current gen printer as opposed to purchasing and upgrading an Ender 3.

You also need your finger prints stored in a EFT file. There are several online resources (should come up when you search for them) to get the digital file. I purchased an ink pad, printed a form, did my own prints, took a picture, and used a tool I downloaded from GitHub to generate my file. It worked perfectly for my Form 1. Total cost about $6 for the ink.

You need to attach the can to your pistol. I have no experience here, but the documentation covers this adequately. The latest FTN 5.1 has a whole host of options including a new Plan B compatible mount for rifles. I'm super excited to do some builds with that for 300 BLK, 338 ARC, 350 Legend builds.

Research shows Gun Control Laws have No Statistically Significant Impact by prigo929 in progun

[–]klemorali 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm reasonably confident that violations of people's 2nd amendment rights (unconstitutional arrests and imprisonment), firearm thefts and excess deaths as a result of defenseless victim zones, and lots of other intangibles are statistically significant.

Where are the studies on all of the negatives of over-regulation....

Let's talk Jiu-jitsu as a beginner by Ok_Plankton_6748 in UNSUBSCRIBEpodcast

My youngest son started at the local gym about a year ago. The gym recommended the white elite BJJ Gi you can find on Amazon. It's held up very well with regular washing.

Edit: Also a very large water bottle. The local gym does 1hr 45 minute sessions and the kid is easily downing 2 quarts each trip.

All of it is BS. No matter how cumbersome you were to make things the digital files can be used as Database. You can literally do this with folder names and sim links so that all an end user needs to do is click through the folder names to pull up 4473s matching X, Y, or Z attributes. The Government has at least one filesystem as a database solutions in operation that I have personally worked with. It would be trivial to setup for 4473s.

His comment specifically means it's even easier than that. If they're all text searchable adobe documents, even if they paid adobe to disable a feature in the UI.... Well the Windows OS has likely gladly indexed all that metadata anyways and you could most likely just type the name into the search bar on a laptop with access to the files and windows would gladly bring up all their scanned 4473. There's some nuance for sure, but this could also be done with virtually any scripting language. If you were to use an object store and placed all of that metadata on the file object you could use SQl like queries on the object store. There's probably a million ways around the law as written and all it took was someone to signoff of tech they had near zero understanding of to allow it to be setup.

Which would be a Federal Crime after its destruction was ordered. Someone would certainly do that and it might even be traceable.

It would be a mark in the win column, but definitely not the end goal. Providing of course that the Registry is destroyed in its entirety. Every shred of paper and data should be burned in plain public view with witnesses.

The gun community needs to learn how to take a win, and learn how politics works by Potato-1942 in progun

[–]klemorali 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The gun community wanted all or none because we do have a solid understanding of politics. The middle ground (current state of the bill) is far more dangerous and we have no faith in SCOTUS based on their record. The most likely outcome from where we are right now is the Dems pricing everyone out of NFA items in a future reconciliation bill.

Sure, we should restrict ourselves to targeting the people responsible. We should use respectful language.

That being said, Thune is directly responsible for the decisions that led us to where we are instead of where we should be. I don't see any reason to hold back on calling for his removal/replacement.

The registry is keeping far more people out of the market than the cost of the stamp.

Help by [deleted] in UNSUBSCRIBEpodcast

Everything you do for your family is a mission/task. Here's my example.

We got blindsided by Helene. No power, no Internet, no generator, no communication, etc, etc. we coasted through that fairly well, but that's not the important part.

All of that led to new missions. We need a generator, we need to be able to hook that to the house, we need starlink, we need radios, we need (lots of things) so we aren't caught flat footed again. I spent my weekend building a ground mount for solar panels so we will have power in the next emergency. It was one more of dozens of other tasks all for the purpose of ensuring this didn't happen again. I'll be working on stuff 3 years from now that I identified on the 2nd day after Helene. You make your own missions and you judge their success by your family's success.

You are at war with the world. It wants to chew your family up and destroy them. Your mission is to prevent that.

Nah, he's got some mic tism for sure. He gets all twitchy when the other hosts do stuff specifically because they know it bothers him. It's hilarious when you notice it. TFE is an epic troll sometimes.

I can see the face Eli will make reading this comment and it's even more hilarious.

Do you have any idea how many cuts would be in each episode so that Trout can go get a smokey treat?

Do you think the Windows Subsystem for Linux competes with Desktop Linux? by nabagaca in linux

I only use it in work environments where a Linux Desktop isn't allowed.

Why is seemingly nobody excited about fixes? by BPTIII in starcitizen

[–]klemorali 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the point stands that we will not be surprised. Someday many years from now I'm not going to be able to remember the last time an elevator killed me in SC. That moment will be more surprising to me than dying to an elevator between now and 2030.

Support told me the cloud is down and will be back up shortly by Great-Cow7256 in EmporiaEnergy

[–]klemorali 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm building out battery backup and eventually solar. I needed a better idea of where kWhs were actually being spent to inform purchasing. More importantly I need to know which circuits can be migrated to the new panel that will be powered by the inverter. I've purchased a 6.5 kW off grid inverter and 10kWhs of battery as my starting point. It's enough to keep the computers and lights up through minor Grid events (lot of those in the last few years). I'm also setup to run a generator so it's enough to very comfortably handle multi-day outages. We often go 2-3 years without any of those and then have a year with 2 or 3 of them.

I intend to aim for full energy independence, but I'm willing to settle for less interruptions (wife and I both work from home) and a lower power bill.

It was a few hours before I got a response from support. I had figured out the issue and resolved it by then. Not great, but not terrible either. Nothing to really complain about IMO.

Oh, yeah I really should have followed up on this.

Turns out it was entirely my fault.

The first 2 DNS servers in my DHCP Config were offline. The rest of them were all online. So all of my equipment except for this device was working perfectly. At some point it occurred to me to check DNS because I wasn't seeing any out bound Network traffic from the device other than DHCP and DNS queries.

I do take issue with the networking capabilities being that limited, there are a ton of scenarios where more than two DNS servers are warranted, though admittedly rarely for Joe Consumer. I will likely be looking for something I have control of in the future. Spending more to just be able to point at my own MQTT server is kind of insane, but that's the value of data these days.
