Thank god I’m safe! And I will be dead and gone before it happens here. It’s going to be decades before 5G is implemented where I live. Hell, 4G is spotty and unreliable even yet today. Even 3G was terrible.

Having recovered a dead body from the bottom of a lake, I can positively affirm it’s not good for you.

Everything needs warnings because if used incorrectly they will do damage to you in some way. where do warning end?

Because it’s what we have to send. It’s not like we have a lot of extra Sherman tanks we can send anymore.

There is rail and I’m pretty sure Russia still has plenty of cargo/transport planes that would be capable.

Ironing clothes died long before millennials. Grandma quit ironing before you were born. Wrinkle Free shirts and pants started showing up in the 1970’s and were common within the decade.

It still happens more than it should. It took me 4 tries to get the nVidia driver to take on my “gaming” laptop with Fedora 40, (it wouldn’t accept the public keys for some reason). And I had to wait for some updates that took 2 weeks to show up. But, the onboard Intel chipset ran Nouveau just fine with no waiting and tinkering. I think people are still having some issues with nVidea and Wayland yet. I know I still have some minor ghosting issues with a couple of AppImages I really need to use that would prefer straight X11 over X-Wayland.

Now that didn’t bother me because I’ve been using various distros since buying my first boxed set CDs with RedHat 5 from Walmart of all places for $25US. (I still suffer from PTSD thanks to rpm hell). But I can see how a stumbling block like that can turn newcomers to Linux distros off.

Aww man, I don’t get any Aniston panty shots…Just pictures of cute puppies. I like puppies.

FB does have one thing that keeps me checking in once or twice a week and that’s the group that is run by our small town, (Pop. 107), and little area community. It helps to keep us all up to date on community meetings and events as diverse as the County Fair and school closings for blizzards in the winter time. Sometimes people will post historical photos they have and tell the story of the photos for everyone to read.

Oh my bad! Of course it needs sliced had boiled eggs! I’m prepared to be shunned for the next year…

That was from a fear of food poisoning from it being left out in the sun to warm. But it was more of an issue if real mayo, (with raw egg yolk), was used. If you used some type of industrial grade Miracle Whip untainted by anything real you could ID as an ingredient, it was far less of an issue.

Besides, what’s a little e.coli gonna do? Besides make you all shiny clean on the inside.

As a Midwesterner, potato salad is made with a mixture of real mayonnaise and yellow mustard. Finely diced onion and celery with a dash of old and flavorless paprika for color to round it all out. Salt and pepper to taste. You wouldn’t want it to be too spicy you know.

Some heretics will add diced dill pickle on occaision - my one Grandmother would sometimes do this after drinking too much. This is generally considered a social faux pas, though us Mid-westerners are too polite and kind to actually say something about it. But we will look askance at you. And your children will never play with our kids ever again.

As a retired toolmaker - yes, yes I do. And a whole lot better than you. And I actually posses the tools, skills, knowledge required to manufacture a firearm completely from scratch - a lathe, mill, drill press and even a 3D printer. I suppose technically, I’ve built several “ghost guns” myself over the years. I sourced all the parts individually, including a stock blank, fitted them all together and built a fully functional firearm. They were all muzzle loading rifles, but they were real firearms. There is a vibrant, though niche industry, that caters to us “mountain folk” and our desire to touch the history. It was a truly fun and educational process that gave some real pride of craftsmanship in the end product.

The point still stands - full auto weapons are very uncommon, legal or otherwise, in public hands and you for sure won’t ever see such a thing as a full auto ghost gun on a public target range. Even cops don’t get to own full auto weapons in the US. At least not without jumping through some very, very, very difficult and expensive hoops that pretty much make it impossible.

Some highly regulated, very expensive to buy, and rare, weapons you mean. Full automatic weapons are far from the norm on any target range.
