I know to empty the breech and not just take out the magazine
It is so very important to know that there is a right order in which to do this, too. Many many NDs come from people racking the slide then dropping the mag. At least one life that I know of would have been saved by getting the order right
Yep yep. I will only trust that the chamber of a gun is empty if I can shine a light down the front, and see it from the back. Even then, damn bullet goblins can pop a bullet in there in the blink of an eye, so you still want it pointed away from anything that can feel pain
Mint is considered the best replacement for Windows because Cinnamon more closely resembles Windows. Personally I can’t stand GNOME, but I’ve heard it more closely resembles macOS

News@lemmy.world•Australia is banning social media for kids under 16.

Woah hey look I was right
The government says firms must take “reasonable steps” to keep kids off their platforms, and should use multiple age assurance technologies.
These could include government IDs, face or voice recognition, or so-called “age inference”, which analyses online behaviour and interactions to estimate a person’s age.
Platforms cannot rely on users self-certifying or parents vouching for their children.
Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and Threads, began closing teen accounts from 4 December. It said anyone mistakenly kicked off could use government ID or provide a video selfie to prove their age.
Snapchat has said users can use bank accounts, photo ID or selfies for verification.
I do not respect gendered languages. I will not apologize for misgendering a pencil. The right form of “the” for an apple is “the apple.”

Hot take: correct use of em-dashes is one of the best ways to tell that a text isn’t AI generated. Humans know where to put those things, even if we can’t define the rules in words. ChatGPT just slaps them things down willy

Paraphrased. Ag-gag laws exist in many countries besides the US, and I can 100% guarantee that your region is just as abusive to your farm animals as the US or Australia.
And I’ve given you an answer as to why.
You’ve given the answer as to why do dogs get a pass, but that’s still not an answer as to why should dogs get a pass. Unless your ethical framework is really as base as thinking “me liking something makes it good and me not liking something makes it bad,” in which case I don’t think you’re really capable of engaging in this conversation.
So, your worst case scenario, is that people agree with you. You don’t think that’s a bit counter-intuitive?
What does this even mean
I do multitask by doomscrolling on the toilet, at work, or even on the toilet at work sometimes. It does buy a few more hours for doomscrolling in bed
















Capitalism is so cool dude I love having inferior transit of 1s and 0s because some group of leeches in California own the shape that those 1s and 0s pass through
