Laundry is comfy. Shrimple as that.

I’ve been off Reddit for a couple of years, but that’s still sad news. That was a legitimately good community, and the name flip was good, and I think they were partnered with worldpolitics which was the flipside community.

Privating protests definitely had some teeth in the short term, but not in the long term

Toothless.

I think to say something broadly popular with the voting base and then forget about it after the election. Decent plan TBH.

Obnoxious late 90s-early 2000s over the top stuff like Limp Bizkit. I don’t know what happened. I always hated it until last year and then it just clicked. Please stay back.

Be not afraid.

Unironically, I would play this.

Baby pygmy hippo in a Thailand zoo. It’s not just a lemmy thing (I’ve seen a few posts about the hippo, but not a flood), but a whole internet thing. All the social media feeds have the hippo as the cute thing of the week because it’s a hippo, but tiny.

Not like the privating protests ever had much in the way of teeth anyway. The overwhelming majority of mods weren’t willing to actually leave, so it was just puffery. Any mod who was on reddit during the API protests and is still there has proven they will cave to whatever rules reddit throws at them.

It’s not uncommon to see massive trucks with insanely bright LED lights (a certain personality type), which puts the lights just about windshield level on a sedan.

What’s extra fun is now the lights also blind drivers going the same direction as the truck, as every mirror in the sedan is filled with light.

It interests me.

Yes, finally. This is exactly the kind of case I’m looking for. Now I can dig into the details of the court documents.

My interpretation of the passage was that, upon racking the slide, you’d have a trigger pull weight between the two.

Your interpretation is simultaneously correct. If you insert a magazine on a closed Glock and pull the trigger nothing will happen. You need to rack it once to get the first round into the chamber. When you fire that racked round, you get the intermediate trigger pull- but also any other round you fire has the exact same pull.

I think the way it was explained above is bringing in other types of triggers as a comparison (DA/SA triggers), and if you don’t know anything about them, you just end up more lost trying to read it out.

That is just one of the things that seems very off to me about the claim.

my guess is that it happens sometimes

I just want to see one case.

Maybe someone on Lemmy has found one.

And so, my question.

I’ve seen the claim about Target online for years now, sometimes even with people in comments saying they know someone (or know someone who knows someone) that this happened to, but even after all this time no easily found court case. Nobody who ever says they have first hand knowledge ever comes back to say what case it is. It seems like this would be a slamdunk piece of content for one of the various YouTube channels that covers legal drama, but I haven’t seen it. None of the news articles covering Target’s Judge Dredd tier stoploss ever have an update linking to a case. I just want to see it.

As infamous as Target’s stoploss is, I figured people more plugged in would already know where to look.

Thanks, but not relevant to my question.

semiautomatic pistol full auto with a fucking shoestring.

The shoestring machinegun that got the ATF letter was a Mini-14 (which importantly had an exposed reciprocating charging handle) if I recall correctly, and it was still very janky. I’m trying to figure out the engineering of the same concept with a Glock with just a string and I am having some trouble.

Just the trigger. A safety in the “handle” would be a grip safety, which some guns have but not Glocks (unless it is some obscure small run model, but certainly none of the common ones). It looks like an extra panel on the back of the grip which is squeezed into the grip when held.
