  • Shooting buckshot over residential areas? Police will forget the theft and be all over the shooter in no time!

    From Wikipedia: Shotguns have an effective range of about 35 m (38 yd) with buckshot, 45 m (49 yd) with birdshot, 100 m (110 yd) with slugs, and well over 150 m (160 yd) with saboted slugs in rifled barrels.

    These drones fly at the end of shotgun range. Even if you only need to damage a propeller it doesn’t sound very effective. I’d sure like to try, but shooting my 12ga in town is a strait path to jail.













  • Well I changed my nvidia settings from on demand to a lower value and rebooted Mint a few weeks ago. Then there was no display at all and several hours/days of searching led me to reinstall Linux again and I did not have good backups. There was probably an answer there, but my frustration with Linux is real!!! I still refuse to use anything else and flop between manjaro and mint. I think having proper system backups and a live USB ready to go is helpful…I’m much more defensive running Linux because I keep getting shitty surprises, but I still feel better about it over using windows.





  • Sir, I have seen my entire living room melt before my eyes, and the size of objects was so distorted I thought I had shrunk below my furniture. I heard voices all night from the outside thinking someone had found me. I also wandered outside and fell in love with the grass and the midnight dew but thought I was in a different world. I’ve also completely lost my vision due to visions and globs/blobs of color and realized it can completely remove you from reality and provide a solid ego death. I was riding rainbows and did not recognize a single object around me.

    I don’t think you are giving them enough credit, although I am also skeptical depending on the dosage.




  • I raise my own chickens and love them very much. I’d also eat one if they got out of line, and I ate the males as soon as they were big enough (only hens allowed here locally). Its both an amazing food resource and source of joy seeing them every morning and giving them treats as they wander my yard. They are very happy.

    I also buy chicken from the store still because I usually raise for eggs only. Point is, I am around chickens every day by choice and don’t see it the same way as you.
