  1. Well, 2d guns are about as useful as 2d waifus, and I still don't have a way to prove whether or not 4d guns can be interacted with in our universe, so.....
  2. starting with this shit again..... TLDR: Bans parts kits, effectively bans individual manufacture of firearms, retroactively makes it illegal to posses individually manufactured firearms unless you take active and immediate steps to make them comply with the new law. BTW, those steps might not even be possible because you have to talk a local manufacturer (maybe dealer as well, IDK) into "issuing" you a serial number for your weapon. They are not legally compelled to do so, so you might not be able to. Just for funsies, it also effectively bans selling parts kits that you already own. Also, bans the sale of aluminum, steel, and other materials, because of poor wording by idiots. My prediction is that this will not become law, but they just keep pushing the envelope with this shit. Also, I love the name "3D Firearms Prohibition Act". The language doesn't specifically state anything about additive manufacturing, so I will assume that it is for the prohibition of three dimensional firearms (which it basically is).
  3. Note how the pepper spray did basically nothing, and the first taser deployment failed.
  4. Especially out here in the west. It's over a one hour drive to the state capitol, and I'm really close to it compared to other parts of the state. It's a coastal issue where all the major urban centers are, especially on the east coast where you can drive for an hour and get to a different state. I guess it doesn't seem that odd to me, but I've driven to and through a fair number of states on road trips growing up, and I've worked as a driver before hauling supplies around Colorado, Nebraska, and Wyoming. While the country is really large, you can cover a fair amount of it if you really want to in a day. It was about a 26 hour drive from Rochester NY back to Colorado, and we did it practically nonstop. If you push it a little bit, you can get from Seattle to Miami in 48 hours. (Probably shave a couple hours off if you push the speed limit a bit.) Granted, that's assuming you have someone to trade off with, or some amphetamines.
  5. Clearly this means that we need a nation wide ban on high capacity magazines. That will stop these mass shootings for sure. After all, when the magazine is empty you have to throw them away, right? I leaned that from one of my state representatives. But I'm all seriousness, that is the argument of the anti gun crowd. They need to outlaw things they don't like outside of their jurisdiction because people can illegally bring them into their jurisdiction. Montana shouldn't have high capacity magazines because they can illegally end up in L.A. Besides, we all know that those toothless redneck rural bumkins are worthless filth compared to the erudite and a sophisticated metropolis dwelling master race, so they shouldn't even have rights anyways. That makes it OK for the large urban areas to dictate how people hundreds of miles away can live. These are the same morons who say that we need to abolish the Senate because it's not fair that 45 million votes have greater representation that 55 million voters. THAT'S THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE SENATE YOU INBRED FLIPPER HANDED DING DONGS!
  6. The threat of safety glasses: how eye protection used by the military can help terrorists commit mass shootings!
  7. Ermagerd! Civilians have access to military equipment! Next let's get an article about surplus military trucks in civilian hands and the danger that it represents. So if the military has it, it's automatically too dangerous for civilians to have, right? Fear mongering click bait article is just that.
  8. The T114 is a meme mobile, that's about it. It can be nasty, but it can't carry. Plus side, you get to run it in a completely baller 6.7 American line up, and it doesn't care about facing 7.7s. In my opinion, it would come down to what BR you play at more. I haven't driven T114s, but I've killed plenty, and I've only been killed by them a handful of times. They are great ambush vehicles. If you already have the T29, M26E1, and Super Hellcat, then yeah, go for it.
  9. There are screen shots and videos floating around showing that voter registration may have been altered after the fact to say that he is a registered Republican. It's possible that those are doctored, as well, but this whole thing still doesn't add up. Either way, the guy has a history of being a whack job. Considering everything that has happened lately, what with Christine Ford's ties to the IC, the shit show that has been the Mueller investigation, all of the political violence against the right that goes unreported, etc, this whole bomber thing seems to be tailor made for an October surprise. This guy is almost a perfect caricature of what the left thinks that Trump supporters are. Just like the fake bombs that were sent, this seems like an over exaggerated prop.
  10. Astroturfed AF, records being scrubbed/altered. This just keeps getting more fake.
  11. It certainly is a possibility, but if they are just doing this for the lulz, they picked a really bad time.
  12. I hesitate to call these things bombs, considering that from what we have seen so far they appear to be incapable of actually exploding. The one that we have a picture of just has a digital clock with no alarm features, not to mention the myriad of other glaringly obvious problems with it. It's not like it's that difficult to cobble together a timed fuse with modern electronics. You could get everything you need at an automotive supply store or hobby store without even raising any eyebrows. While it's more difficult to make proper high explosive compounds, there are plenty of other options that you can substitute that are also readily available. The person who made these wasn't trying to build a bomb, they were building props. If they were trying to actually build a bomb, they must be a text book example of the Dunning-Kruger effect. If they thought these were going to explode, they must have also thought that lemon juice turned you invisible. That certainly is a possibility, but that seems incredibly unlikely to me.
  13. That may be, but playing a stock top rank tank in PvP is an incredibly painful experience. This should make it faster to research parts, FPE, crew, and adjustment of fire (the 4 things I would consider absolutely necessary, not including any specific ammunition you have to unlock). But playing without any of those is just asking for a bad time.
  14. It didn't change the fact that end tier stick vehicle grind is painful enough to deter people from playing it. I've been trying to grind out there parts that I need for the Abrams in the PvE mode, and it's takes hours to unlock a single module. It takes you longer to spade a vehicle than it takes to unlock the next vehicle.
  15. It's not ideal, but it's a move in the rights direction.
  16. Japan is pain until you get the Chi Ha Kai, then it's playable. You can jump from that to the Chi Nu, then the Chaffee and the Na To. After that, I have no clue, but my next jump will be to the ST-A series and the Type 61. After that you have no choices. Use the STB to grind the Type 90, and throw as many free backups at them as you can.
  17. I see that they used the "wall hanger" methodology for their firearms selection criteria. Also, fuck every last one of those assholes, because I'm willing to bet that many of them are of the "for me but not for thee" persuasion when it comes to the 2A.
  18. That it's the face of abject despair and dread of someone who just got caught with their hand in the cookie jar. She knows exactly how fucked she is.
  19. Not surprising, psychological disorders are usually a package deal. Sometimes you can luck out and only have one abnormality, but more likely than not you have comorbidity with some other disorder.
  20. I question why we should even be encouraging it in the first place.
