Not saying you should, I was just pointing out that you can get Internet/connection to your garage/workshop for like $100 these days. I’d assume most shops with that large of a footprint have some sort of IT service, in house IT, or buying it from a vendor that has that setup already.
Ok then why bring it up? Are you doing stuff in the workshop that requires you to activate multiple windows machines? Activate the single cnc machine and be done.
Why are you not using a 2.4ghz or 5ghz wireless bridge?
I’ve got a 5ghz bridge between my garage and house, and it goes through 2 trees and still gives me around 900mbs. It’s over 350m away too.
Not saying that the guy bitching about people who don’t have Internet to active win11…just offering you an idea to fix your lack of Internet in your workshop.
Perjury and jail time. So far there has been zero actually consequences.
Yes because my guns in a safe attack people all the time. No this isn’t comparable at all. This is stupid people owning dangerous animals, that have a mind of their own.
This guy is an textbook example of a dumb strawman, especially the gun trotting yankistani dumbass kind.
It’s not, you type don’t care about people dying, you just don’t like it when guns are used.
Alcohol doesn’t kill someone else out of nowhere. Long term alcoholism or drunk driving does, for which you have to be on the road or nearby it, which everyone and their grandmother already know are inherently dangerous are people inherently become alert and cautious around roads.
It…kinda does. Did…did you not read my comment that 12-13k people a year are killed by drunk drivers? Shit that’s even more random than gun violence? Alcohol has 0 net uses in society…so why aren’t you mouthy about alcohol? Is it because you don’t give a shit about deaths just how they die? Gonna answer for you and say yep.
Can you fucking take out alcohol in a busy mall, spray everyone, and kill them?
Random Mass shootings equate to less than 200 people a year death wise on average. Most mass shootings are targeted and not random. In which alcohol is still king of killing people at random on the road.
Holy fucking shit, are you even aware of the mental gymnastic it takes to equate guns to alcohol?
Considering how far you had to jump around not to get the references… I understand the topic pretty damn well. You on the other hand are another “guns scare me, please ban them all, and I’ll magically feel safe”
Why not say let’s ban water because everyone who drinks it dies?
Yes because I forgot how everyone needs alcohol to survive. Gotta get my 8 shots a day to feel healthy.
it seems the only argument the pro-gun side seems to be able to muster is “it wouldn’t 100% work, so there’s no point even trying”
That’s not what I said at all, what I said was focusing on our citizens well-being will have a much greater impact on gun violence than trying to ban guns.
do you agree with charlie kirk, it’s worth having a few (tens of thousand) deaths a year to be able “protect your god given rights”? (makes perfect sense, if you don’t think about it)
12-13k people die a year from drunk driving deaths per year, nearly as many as all gun homicides combined (sans suicides which make up 2/3rds of gun deaths). So by your logic, we should ban alcohol and that’s the best approach.
Also trying to use that piece of racist shit as a “gotcha” on gun rights is pretty weak, you gonna also toss out that hitler liked bread so I must agree with him too right?
the onion title is not “funny” imo, it’s upsetting and true, which is kind of a black comedy when you see people genuinely argue for it
I argue for it, because people like you suggest that the dems use political capital to try and push more gun control when it has very little support, instead of trying to actually solve our societies problems that would have much greater effect on gun violence.
nobody is talking about prohibition, “just” regulation, but also guns are nothing like alcohol or heavy drugs even
Nearly 4Xs the number of people die via alcohol consumption (178k on average) per year than all gun deaths combined. That’s not even adding in drugs. So you don’t really care about deaths. Just how they die.
And yes, you aren’t suggesting regulation, you’re suggesting a ban, because that’s what a buy back effectively is.
you could do it quicker, like australia did, with a gun buy back scheme
Australia had a 60% turn in rate on around 1 million firearms, of which they now have more guns in civ hands than before the buy back. Yet still have a lower rate of gun deaths than we do. Why because they actually have safety nets and give a fuck about their citizens. If we had a 60% turn in rate, there would still be 100+ million firearms in civ hands. 100xs more than what Australia had.
regarding suicides, guns are way too easy. with most other methods, one needs to invest a more mental and physical effort, in which time they might change their minds, or others might intervene
Jumping off a building or hanging or any other form of suicide are the other 50% of suicide. So yes firearms are effective and heavily used but you still have 50% using other methods.
also insert the onion article title
While that’s always a funny bit, it literally doesn’t get the other reasons why it won’t work. Prohibition doesn’t work, but it’s gonna magically work on firearms?
Banning guns isn’t going to bring the numbers down much if any. Way to many guns out there, it would take 100+ years for the guns to dry up and even then you’d still have them. You’re other points are correct, if we want to curb this violence then we need to focus on why this happens (in this case gang violence). So drugs/poverty/education/safety nets all need to be introduced.
And just another point about gun deaths. 2/3rds are suicides, which is a “why” not a “what tool” was used.
Social media is what started this shit. Myspace got it rolling for people who have zero self awareness to jump online and mouth vomit their lives and info everywhere. Then Facebook took up the mantle and it’s gotten even worse, it’s what happens when you give people tech they don’t understand.
How many months old does my account have to be, before you stop talking like a conspiracy theorist?
Considering you acted like you’re not an alt, but only come to this sub and have a new account… basically doing only shit an alt would do. No conspiracy theories about it.
And why do you think “If you like them so much, why don’t you go live there?” is in any way some kind of clever stance? Don’t you like dissenting opinions? You want them gone?
Authoritarian opinions are not worthy of being discussed. Just like I don’t give two fucks what a Nazi says, I also give no fucks what authoritarians say.
It’s true, that quite a few comments are here, it’s because you’re all such a reasonable bunch of nice folks. I want to know what makes you tick — it’s a bleak picture, tho.
Sure thing.
Your account is 2 months old and almost all your posts are on this sub also talking tankie bullshit.
You don’t sound like cowbee so…one of the others.
As I offered cowbee, please move to russia or DPRK or china… I’ll pay for the ticket.
Massive inflation, dollar weakens even more, debt is sold, economy shits itself because the buying power is even worse than it is now…which in turn means people lose their jobs and the cycle continues. It’s snowball effect of shit…
