8-year-old Utah boy dies after shooting himself in car while mother was inside store
  • Not sure how much I buy this as anyone who can describe a stock Glock trigger as a “hair trigger” doesn’t understand what that term actually means nor do they have a basic understanding of gun safety.

    Before ANY sort of mechanical safety is even considered - why the FUCK did this child have access to any firearm. A safety on a firearm was never designed to stop a user who is willfully trying to use the weapon nor is it a child safety device. To imply that’s how it should be used is irresponsible and I highly recommend editing your post to reflect this.

    Do you also think we should ban garbage disposals because there isn’t a safety to stop my child from sticking their hand in it? What about a safety lock for the disposal switch? Will that save the child’s arm?

  • Excretion-related thermodynamics
  • The body is not a perfect thermal insulator so you must note that the liquid in the bladder is constantly losing heat due to dissipation into the surrounding tissues then the environment around the body. The greater the temperature differential between the body and the environment, the faster the rate of transfer. Your body won’t (or at least it’ll try its damndest) to not let that internal temp drop, which will take more and more energy to maintain as the external temp drops.

  • installation instructions needed
  • So docker is just a wrapper to provide the execution environment for photon in this case. You’ll either have to use docker as it’s really nothing more than installing the docker engine and that’s it, you just run commands provided by the photon dev.

    Or

    If you really don’t want to use docker for whatever reason, you’ll have to reverse engineer the actual code stack within the Dockerfile in the project that is used to build the image you’d otherwise just run. Again this is more more involved and the whole reason to use something like docker in the first place.

  • ‘His rhetoric has made Tesla toxic’: is Elon Musk driving away his target market?
  • I mean my wife and I are a perfect example. After moving into our home I had every intention of getting a Tesla for us both and putting in a home charger. I will say we LOVE our Hyundai Ioniq 6 and will be waiting to see what they release next. Tough shit Elon.

  • How do sport shooter bring their gear to international events ?
  • Oh! I actually can personally answer this one. I’ve been a competitive air gun and rimfire .22 LR for years and even attended college on a rifle program scholarship at a D1 program (yes! The US has a major collegiate rifle program)

    Traveling internationally depended much on where you were going. We competed at the international junior Olympic championships just outside of London one year in the UK. We had to package all ammo and firearms separately, in locked containers which ultimately wasn’t that big a deal. As with flying with firearms in the US, it ultimately comes down to how familiar those such as gate agents and check-in staff are at the airport with their country’s firearm travel laws. Flying out of the US was always easy as they’re used to firearms, but flying back to the US was sometimes a nightmare and we’d get to the airport up to 6 hours before a flight to deal with any BS.

  • What do you folks do for IRL privacy in terms of CCTV, facial recognition, etc?
  • lol you don’t necessarily need these but any IR reflective materials around or on your face is best. Most of the high resolution facial scanners on the market use some form of UR depth mapping and it screws out all up

  • I love my Kolari shades I picked up when they were running their kickstarter. Fantastic to use indoors and out. https://kolarivision.com/product/kolari-shades-ultra/

    Oh and if you have need enough to worry about fingerprints, best to just get rid of them outright and deal with the rather short but uncomfortable recovery for your fingers to heal back over.

  • JPMorgan Chase warns 86 million customers they might have to start paying for their bank accounts
  • The only reason I have found to stick with one of the large banks is to interface with a wealth management team. I have yet to find a credit union who can offer the same types of services as say, Merrill Lynch Wealth Management.

    Savings accounts are one of the biggest scams of all time; 4.2% interest? Oh boy! You have $10k in the bank so that gives you a whopping $420 at EOY.

    Compare that to existing avg returns on WM accounts of nearly 18% where that same $10k generates $1800.

    Don’t have to like the game but play the game to win. And it costs me zero time and effort but still lets me dictate where it can be invested (aka fuck Elon)

  • Microsoft Edge nags users with a 3D banner to change Windows 11's default browser
  • Tried Ubuntu, Drauger OS, Fedora, and Popos. It’s specifically the laptop hardware that’s giving trouble and as far as the drivers go it’s just really a mess because of X11 vs Wayland issues with Nvidia making it all the more difficult.

    Heres my current core issue: I need to run nvidia official drivers as the ones provided via open repos don’t support eGPUs/multi-gpu setups. The problem there is nvidia official drivers only support x11, so then I’m forced to used a sunsetting windowing system for my daily driver, which I just can’t bring myself to do.
