Not sure what the canon says, but it really seems like blaster bolts travel considerably more slowly than a high power rifle bullet, so I’d still pick the slug thrower.

UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto News@lemmy.world•Entire Chain of Command Could Be Held Liable for Killing Boat Strike Survivors, Sources Say51·4 months agoI am hopeful that we might get a progressive. That’s why the DNC didn’t want a real primary, it’s what the people want.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•White House throws commanding admiral under the bus in killing of alleged drug boat survivors1·4 months agoExcept they don’t. These are laws passed by Congress just like every other law.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto I Made This@lemmy.zip•3D-printed PLA "dial wheel" to manually brute-force a combination lock-box7·4 months agoI would really try to mechanically defeat this rather than brute force it. Something like this method:
Also, the gates on these are ALWAYS bigger than one letter, so you could probably actually go with 13 places on the dial and cut your work in half.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto Palestine@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Toddler star Ms. Rachel named finalist for 'Antisemite of the Year' amid Gaza advocacyEnglish111·4 months agoIts wild that they have lost all the guile and subtlety that used to let them get away with pretending that this shit isn’t what it is. When did “The Israel Palestine issue is complex and there are clear arguments and atrocities on both sides that require a nuanced approach to solutions” turn into “You cannot be against murdering babies because those dirty Muslim babies don’t count, your an antisemite.”
Like yeah, we always kind of knew that those were the same thing, but now they aren’t even pretending.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Shout out to my engineering homies.English182·4 months agoThe US could cut its arsenal by 90% and still have nothing to fear from anyone. That shit isn’t for defense it’s to threaten the rest of the world.

UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto News@lemmy.world•Entire Chain of Command Could Be Held Liable for Killing Boat Strike Survivors, Sources Say25·4 months agoBecause the vast majority of Western nations (including the US) consider it to be a war crime to deliberately make a military strike against survivors of an attack that pose no active threat.
Even that assumes that the original strike has military merit in the first place, which isn’t really the case when they are blowing up unarmed boats that might or might not be carrying drugs.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto News@lemmy.world•Entire Chain of Command Could Be Held Liable for Killing Boat Strike Survivors, Sources Say24·4 months agoI guess some of these people expect to still be around in a couple years when there is a new administration that might feel like it’s a good idea to prosecute people for crimes they committed for trump.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•Trump slapped with major lawsuit as Costco demands refund on his tariffs191·4 months agoYou expect Costco to sue on behalf of your company for tariffs paid by your company?
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•White House throws commanding admiral under the bus in killing of alleged drug boat survivors3·4 months agoRight, except the problem is that it creates a very easy argument under which everyone involved COULD be prosecuted. Probably not by THIS DOD, but we still have elections in America and this makes it easy for the next bunch.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•White House throws commanding admiral under the bus in killing of alleged drug boat survivors18·4 months agoOrdering that operations be conducted on the basis that there be “no survivors” is also specifically cited as an example of a war crime by the same manual: “Moreover, it is also prohibited to conduct hostilities on the basis that there shall be no survivors, or to threaten the adversary with the denial of quarter.”
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•White House throws commanding admiral under the bus in killing of alleged drug boat survivors10·4 months agoThe manual is the interpretation of the meaning of existing laws. Its not new law and changing the manual doesn’t change the law. And neither Hesgeth or Trump have the authority to change those laws just because they want to.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto politics @lemmy.world•White House throws commanding admiral under the bus in killing of alleged drug boat survivors106·4 months agoOh look, exactly what Mark Kelly was talking about. Shit rolls down hill guys. Remember that when someone orders you to murder people.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto News@lemmy.world•Trump told crews working on his White House ballroom to ignore permitting, zoning or code requirements: report13·4 months agoSeriously. i get ignoring zoning and permitting because fuck everyone else, but skipping CODE requirements just means your building fucking sucks.
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto News@lemmy.world•Costco sues the Trump administration, seeking a refund of tariffs13·4 months agoMy stepson works for Costco. They are a fantastic employer compared to other retailers. They also do legitimately promote from within, including for business office professional positions.
Why does this look like a porn parody of itself?
UnspecificGravity@infosec.pubto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•don't do ai and code kids10·4 months agoSure, but if I built a 14 inch demo saw with no guard and got the government to give me permission to give it to kindergartners and then got everyone’s boss to REQUIRE theie workers to use it for everything from slicing sandwiches to open heart surgery, I think you might agree that it’s a problem.
Oh yeah, also it takes like 20% of the worlds energy to run these saws, and I got the biggest manufacturer of knives and regular saws to just stop feeling everything but my 14 inch demolition saw.

Sure, unless you have a device capable of running linux that has a touch screen and integrated controller. Like, i don’t know, some kind of deck for running steam?
