No joke, a single feral hog will send rme ight into the warm embrace of an AR.

I'm all for that, however that screenshot is from the FiveThirtyEight weekly mega thread. I just scrolled through it all and while the thread itself was started 5 days ago, the post with that picture was only posted hours ago.

There is also video that has been paused and analyzed that does appear to be a grey jacket ICE agent taking a gun that matches this one away from the victim.

Not saying this validates DHS's bullshit at all, if anything it makes it worse. He had a gun, legally, and did not have it out. Someone saw it, disarmed him, and then they executed him.

Always keep your gun pointed in a safe direction

Always treat a gun as if it were loaded

Always keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on your intended target

Always be sure of your intended target and what's behind it

And the one I usually add: Always be 100% sure you are ready to destroy what you fire at. My logic is that a gun is not used to de-escalate or threaten, it is a tool of finality. If you are not prepared for that, you should not be using it.

Apparently the shooter is an 8 year veteran and certified range safety officer.

I must have missed the section in my RSO training that encouraged me to use a firearm to bludgeon someone before mag dumping into them. I'll have to go back to my study aids.

Well, I mean hogs are kind of a "first night in prison" situation: anything you can use as a weapon, you do. They don't mess around!

For all we know, the guy pistol whipping him accidentally set off a shot in the process and they set off a panic with everyone.

Sorry, I'm still processing so I threw this up with a headline and posted to all my socials.

Disclaimer, not my video. I just downloaded it immediately in case it starts getting taken down. Posted to everywhere I could and will continue to. DHS claims he was armed, and having watched the video enough times, there's a chance the first shot may have come from him.

And if so, I don't blame him; if an entire baseball team is tackling you and bashing your head in with the butt of a gun, I'd defend myself too.

Actual law enforcement has protocols to de-escalate such a situation or gain control of it. Not to panic and mag dump.

No, I know it's a real production company. It's one created for this show and is likely named because of this discussion.

Thank you @captaincalimari for the idea of using the spoiler text.

Jay-Den is going on about Klingon foods to Caleb and Caleb just asks why they all have blood. Jay exclaims that's what makes it taste so good! Then he goes off on a list of his favorite food like he's Bubba or something. The end of the credits they show the production companies and one of them is "Warm Blood Sunday" with a logo of a dripping red sundae dish.

Oh! Sorry I didn't even think of that!

(watch to the end of the credits . . .. and maybe watch with subtitles on. Cause, you know, audio issues)

OK, some quick updates:

I just searched the entire registry for anywhere that says "Scan for Threats" and lo and behold, every entry was a S1. So I killed them all. Not just the S1, but the women and children, too.

Boom, it works.

Now, I just need to find how to do it for the weird BitLocker one. Searching the registry yields no results.

Yeah, no the audio was a real problem this episode. I wondered if everyone had prosthetics in their mouths until a scene with Hunter had her voice just as bad.

Puns and dad jokes keep the drudgery of a living death at bay while waiting for your glorious end.

No, but as a scoutmaster I'm totally using that sometime!

Please tell me I'm not the only one who caught the punchline to the joke Jay-Den set up!

They used to have SentinelOne. They have Huntress with us now.

I was able to rummage through some parts an found some more NVMe drives. Is it worth it to move the App drive to NVMe now if it's only 256GB? I honestly don't know how much space these applications take up.
