> Few people would bring an illegal firearm into NYC or other major US metros

Someone is. They recover thousands of illegal guns in Chicago alone every year.

> These are parts that take very little stress and can be relatively easily printed and used to hold together all the other parts that actually hold the stress of firing the bullet.

A lot of the polymer guns (1911, AR15) need to be reinforced with metal at certain places for any kind of reliablity. A Glock doesn't need to be, because the material was invented by the designer of the gun and the gun was intended to be a polymer frame from the start.

I think they only sell the unleaded race gas at the pumps now but I may be wrong.


Things were named fine back then. Small Business Server, Office, Frontpage, Internet Information Server, Visual Studio...

That was back when they were going wild naming everything "Active". Active Desktop made sense, Active Directory? What made that "Active". ActiveMovie? It's just a video playing framework... ActiveX?? X?? ActiveSync, I don't want my sync to be active. ActiveStore was apparently a thing?

It's like ChatGPT, that goes with "Sora", instead of "Image Generation", which would have been very clear

Was there ever a web-based Jigdo?

This would be great for real estate ads. Make the rooms look their actual size and dark and dirty. Lived-in, if you will.

A new CA law is addressing this somewhat:

> Under Assembly Bill 723, real estate agents and brokers who display photos of a home that have been digitally altered with editing software or artificial intelligence must include a “reasonably conspicuous” statement “disclosing that the image has been altered.”

Why is it addressing it? It'll just lead to every single ad having this statement.

To address it you actually need to force them to provide the originals alongside the edited pictures.


For non-Americans, an American Football field is about 1-1/3 acres, a little smaller than a football/soccer field at about 1-3/4 acres

Not sure if serious because you're converting from football fields to acres, but the acre is another unit that non-Americans generally don't use.

Acres are still widely used in the UK and Ireland for measuring rural and agricultural land. The legal documents for the land will use hectares, but lots of people and documents will use acres outside of legal documents.

India has has a substantial number of acre users.


They all blindly chant "no datacenters" across all forms of social media.

Ironic.


Very few people work in datacenters
