You have very few guns being snuggled into CA

Shut the fuck up. Literally almost all of the guns used to kill people here come from your fucking shit hole embarrassment of a country.

Don’t minimize our issues because you shit your pants every fucking day and pretend like it’s normal.

Gun ownership is a cancer on society, and America is becoming a fucking cancer on the world. Clean up your own fucking mess, and stop encouraging people to do the gun equivalent of literring because you’re a cowardice wreck. Use your guns to oppose your oppressive government, or shut the fuck up about guns being a necessity to oppose government oppression.

Hungary has kept Orban in check through just showing up in the streets, but Americans think they’re special snowflake children who need point and click murder machines they won’t use to enact change. It’s a fucking embarrassment.

I’m Canadian, where 90% of illegal guns are smuggled up from the US.

Your mess is fully in our lane.

Make a relevant argument, or keep your mouth shut. No one needs to hear you talk other than you.

Gang violence is not a gun issue. It’s a educational, safety nets, and jobs issue.

Omg, so the US is the only country that ever experienced a lack of jobs?

Oh no! How I could be so stupid and forget that the US is a unique special snowflake child that doesn’t experience any of the same pressures of literally any other country on earth!

Grow the fuck up amerocentric child.

Yes, I see it differently. Notice how literally every single other country in the entire world doesn’t do what the US does?

And there it is, the same disingenuous that the right uses for thier bullshit causes.

It’s not disingenuous in any way shape or form.

You have basically said that children killed in gang shootings don’t matter. Try not to throw right wing shade around when you’re parroting their racist talking points about which people do and don’t matter.

A pool has no use, you cannot use it for defense or putting food on the table.

Lmao, bruh, it’s this niche little exercise called swimming, you might have heard of it. Try and pull your head out of your ass before pointing us to all the examples you have where ICE has been stopped by people with guns.

On top of that, the stats in the child deaths include 15-19 year olds, most of which are from gang shootings, not random 5 year olds being shot.

Yeah. So?

More children drown every year in pools than by gun deaths, yet no one is screaming to outlaw pools.

I do not understand why gun nuts cannot fathom the difference between something that has utility and can result in death, and something that serves no function other than being a point and click murder machine.

If you remove all guns, there will still be a thing that is number one.

The children who are not gunned down will not be killed by something else. It just lowers the overall death rate.

“Needlessly” is extremely undefined. Lots of things occur that are needless or claimed to be needless.

No it’s not. It’s defined in relation to the child death rates of peer countries.

Guns are the number one cause of death for American children, after automobiles, and America already has a higher automobile death rate than virtually all it’s comparable peers.

Since 1999, 400,000 American children have died needlessly.

Honestly, Germany should be thanking this man for pushing their country forward.

Again, no, because that’s not a resolution, that’s a pixel density at a set distance.

While I get your point, this is an article, not a whitepaper.

If someone says something that is obviously not a thing, like ‘the perfect resolution of an analog painting’, then it means the author probably didn’t actually understand what they read and so you shouldn’t trust their interpretation of the underlying news.

That’s not a resolution, that’s a pixel density at a set distance. It’s also arbitrary on Apple’s end, not actually a meaningful universal measurement.

Really makes me try and catch myself complaining and just to stop it.

A lot of conversations revolve around ‘dont you just hate this one process, or people like x, or y never works’ and it’s always weary and exhausting, but much more so since I became the tech guy and realize how much people default to stories like that when they have nothing else to say about your profession.

If you want to say ‘ive noticed that x never seems to work properly and I’m wondering why it couldn’t be fixed with z’ and are genuinely curious I’m more than happy to problem solve and/or explain complexities, but most people never want to hear a complicated answer about systemic forces.

To demonstrate the efficacy of the tiny screen, the researchers reproduced The Kiss, a famous artwork painted by Gustav Klimt. The image was shown in perfect resolution on the screen, which at approximately 1.4 x 1.9 mm was 1/4000th that of a standard smartphone.

This makes me doubt the author of the article’s credibility. What exactly is the “perfect resolution” of a hand painted piece of art?

The underlying paper is published in Nature which adds more credibility to its significance but an article that presents none of the limitations, drawbacks, or broader industry context that might hold something like this back isn’t adding much. What was the colour depth? Refresh rate? Is it thrown if the external light shifts and changes? How many children have to be sacrificed to the machine gods to produce it? Etc. etc.

Yeah, yeah it is. It’s got Conor McGregor in there as a villain, so you have to be ok with that, but if you are, it’s honestly just a lot of fun. There’s an unhingedness to it all that really tickles me in the right spot.

It’s not just shaky cam, the sequences straight up don’t necessarily make cohesive physical sense. Like they show hits and moves in orders that don’t properly flow into each other

I find it funny that one of the director’s latest movies is the Road House remake, where they used a new technique that lets them show every impact in incredible clarity. Feels like he really took the shaky cam criticism to heart.

Yeah, iirc first book is basically the length of the first three movies and entirely revolves around Carlos. I loved it when I read it in high school.

The movies were also pretty great, but i think I always expected that as I grew up I would understand the action sequences more, and it turns out that no, the action sequences are just nonsense and don’t actually make sense.

I think the first Bat Radio debuted in the 1966 TV Show, so from that point onwards the signal really has served no practical communications purpose.

It has however, always been canon that the signal is not just about communicating to Batman, but also about communicating to criminals that Batman is out and on the loose. It’s more psychological warfare than communication device … Though why Gordon isn’t allowed to use the Bat Radio and has to go on the roof in the rain to turn on a high voltage spot light is never fully explained. I assume he lost his privileges for a reason.
