    Flock cameras, you are being spied upon ( Major privacy concerns)

    I've been following this part of the story. They found what the cameras record, but they also got the encryption key used to communicate with "home base". So it's bad enough that the images are saved on the device (or at least a good portion of them), but with the encryption keys they could...

    Bad shoot in Indiana has lessons for you here in NYS

    The idea that you have to wait until a criminal gains access to your domicile before you can confront them and prevent whatever crime they were thinking of is just more evidence that our .gov WANTS us to be victims. Once a criminal crosses onto your property it should be your RIGHT to make sure...

    Michigan Drivers Could Pay by the Mile Under New Road Tax Pilot

    Let's start by auditing all the tax money declared for "road repair" to see where it is all going. It sure as hell doesn't seem to be going to road repair. Between the potholes and some asshole's idea of a road surface being "loose stone and oil" (wanna kill motorcyclists much?) they obviously...

    Supreme Court blocks mail in ballot law

    Do we really want the .gov to be able to track who voted for whom? I can understand marking mail-in ballots as important election material for tracking purposes. Let's go back to the method that used to work: the person has to request the ballot, should have to fill it out it in front of a...

    Sugarbush Armory in Attica filed for bankruptcy in March

    Everything I've read so far said it is likely a recoil spring too heavy, preventing the slide from moving back far enough for the spent case to interact with the ejector. Either way, I'll try to get to the range and see if I can get some go pro vid of the malfunction, and write up what I've...

    Sugarbush Armory in Attica filed for bankruptcy in March

    No mods. At least not before I started trying different recoil spring weights. Which didn't help, BTW. Metro Arms Corp, Manila, Phillipines - Imported by TriStar, North Kansas City, MO. TriStar American Classic II 9mm 1911 5" barrel 10+1 rounds supposedly comes with: 19# mainspring 11#...

    ummmm... ex-NYS Motor Vehicle Inspector here, and what we have to go through is entirely too draconian. The tiniest infraction, such as a crack in the windshield or a small hole in the floor, is an automatic fail costing people hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. Most people cannot absorb...

    Alexandria Ocasio Cortez - The gift that keeps on giving

    Well that's a VERY low bar to jump. :) I wouldn't hire her as a garbage collector. She is a vapid poser. Poster child for penicillin. Probably has a stamp from the CDC on her saying "biohazard zone".

    I think some will. #walkaway was a real thing. There's no evidence it ever ceased to be. Many honest democrat voters are fed up with the bullshit going on in the DNC right now. How do you think Trump got elected in the first place (or the second, for that matter). Moderates, fence sitters...

    Federal Government Backs Supreme Court Challenge To AR-15 Bans

    so what does NY use when they decide a great idea for a road surface is loose stone and oil? (maybe they have a secret desire to kill motorcyclists and people in convertibles?) I know the oil they use is fairly thick and sticky. I've had to scrub it out of my arm after wiping out on my...

    Alexandria Ocasio Cortez - The gift that keeps on giving

    They need her. She's their hand puppet. I'm sure this isn't the first time she's had someone's had up her (literally as well as figuratively?). Her apparent intelligence is a ruse. Her only claim to fame is that she can remain awake to read the teleprompter and not wander off looking for some...

    School me on Data Centers

    Don't believe it. This is a straw man attempt to negate the legitimate concerns of people who would end up living next to one of these mammoth industrial complexes. The majority of people opposed have no ties to China. And the concerns they raise are not because of something they read on CNN...

    City council UNDER FIRE for allowing non-citizens to apply for police department

    I'm fairly sure MOST of the non-citizens being allowed to become police are those with legitimate authorization to be in the country. If they allow an illegal to become a police officer any and all arrests made by that person are tainted and will not stand up in court. But how would a foreigner...

    She's not hurt at all. She is completely clueless about just how stupid she sounds. She won't believe anything the Right say about her and the Left just keep telling her what a good girl she is. You can almost see the blinders and halter on her in this pic.

    I used to think the midterms were a done deal for the Dems. Then they started shooting themselves in the feet with the whole DSA bullshit. Taking a page right out of the Republican playbook (never let a sure thing play itself out). Now? It's iffy. I think the dems have a little more sway...

    When Lesser Force Fails: Who Gets a Last Resort in Times Square? What we learned yesterday

    Expecting the government to overthrow the government? That's an exercise in futility. As we've seen the last year and a half the government has no interest in actually cleaning its own house, only talking about it to drum up votes. Even low hanging fruit (*cough* jumbo james fraud *cough*) is...

    Charlie Kirk shot (merged threads)

    By that reasoning it would be ok to snipe Robinson's lawyer? I'm pretty sure he used hateful words in the opinion of anyone he sat across from in court. Does harsh words now equal a death sentence? I predict a lot of lefties would be on the receiving end, not the trigger end.

    Woman fights off alleged carjackers at Columbus gas station

    When Lesser Force Fails: Who Gets a Last Resort in Times Square? What we learned yesterday

    I don't think we are at the point where we need to suspend the Constitution. There are plenty of laws that just need to be enforced, especially against those rogue State legislatures and activist judges who consistently seek to violate the Constitution and The People's Constitutional Rights.

    The problem is they aren't pandering to one of the larger male-dominated cults, so therefor everything bad in the universe MUST be because of them. We're seeing it returning here in America.

    There's a flock camera just down the street from me. Yesterday the pole it was on is leaning at approx. 50 degrees off vertical. either someone did a shitty job of installation (it's been there for months though) or someone decided they didn't like it and tried to pull it down.

    US-Canada Trade War Threatens Electricity Imports, Prices

    Hopefully we'll see something similar to how Trump got elected. Democrats so pissed by what the democrat party is doing they deliberately vote AGAINST party lines. It's hard to see anyone voting for corrupt jumbo james for any reason. Even a ROCK has a better chance against blubber.

    Gov Hochul disses, rejects piece of Chicago-style pizza during DNC interview: ‘It’s kinda funny looking’

    Pizza Hut is an acceptable substitution if you don't have time to drive out of your way to get better. The missus also prefers it, for some reason. Organ Stop in Phoenix is better, but that's because of the ambiance. The pizza is very similar to PH. You'd probably find the Crypt Keeper...

    So the best way to incentivize farmers to invest in building herds is to crash the prices of beef? Doesn't seem to make much sense to me. Maybe they should have spanked the blue states that try to restrict herds due to "cow farts" instead.

    Now California will regulate what tires you can buy for your vehicles. 70% of them sold today will be banned by 2033

    But a tire at the proper pressure will have less rolling resistance than the typical over-inflated tire most people keep. Proper tire pressure is best achieved by using the chalk test to verify you are utilizing the entire tread. Not just a narrow band in the middle, which is what happens when...

I could have told them that it will occasionally work fine with 10 rounds. And how "terribly dirty" can a gun...
