Unfortunately, so called legit sites do this shit now too. So you may find government, school, or work forcing you to interact with asshats like this.

Wow, talk about moving goal posts… You were all enraged with his conflating Walmart and private sales, but have no problems making up stuff that I didn’t say.
As for online sales: “According to the ATF, any unlicensed person -meaning not a Federal Firearms Licensee- may transfer a firearm to another unlicensed person residing in the same state as long as that person is not barred from owning a gun. This means it’s perfectly legal under federal law to transfer your gun to another person without any extra steps as long as they are allowed to own a firearm. There is no federal requirement for having a license to do so, and you don’t need to fill out any paperwork. As long as you’re both residents of the same state, your transaction is essentially unrestricted.”

So how about state laws you ask?
“Private Transfers of Firearms Wyoming does not regulate private sales and transfers of firearms”.

Because you can buy guns at Walmart, maybe not in California, but they sell guns in approximately half of their stores in the US.
You can also go to gun shows and buy guns without a background check.
But of course you’re correct, he was wrong, It’s not as easy as going to Walmart to get a gun without a background check. It’s actually MUCH EASIER than that in more than half the US. You can just go online and pay for someone to send you a gun without any background check, site unseen, from the comfort of your own home.

I agree with that. The only caveat I have is that if you are a junior, entry level, or even just an underpaid developer being asked to work on “mission critical” code, then that code is not “mission critical”. It is code that management is obligated to provide but gives no real fucks about.

Much like a bar mitzvah or quinceañera signals the beginning of the transition from childhood to adulthood, there is the junior to senior transition for developers. It often starts with the realization that the most recent in a long line of super critical bugs you are working on has been sitting around untouched for weeks and is only now “critical” because a customer has bitched about it not being fixed. The best part is when you follow the progress of the bug and see that your fix doesn’t get touched by anyone for months because there never was an actual customer bitching about it in the first place, it was just some sales person or VP flexing their power because they felt ignored. So the bug got squeezed it into the already over packed production cycle by making it “mission critical” and assigning it to someone too junior to realize that it’s bullshit work.

Have you ever been to giggletown, because I will take you to giggletown, if you dare.

Tell me that you have never worked on anything even remotely ”mission critical" without actually saying it…

Ice cream is delicious because it is sweet.

It is possible to state something that is both completely correct and totally wrong at the same time. Your statement is exactly that.

It’s not like citizenship you don’t get to be a planet just because your mom is.

Research and fact checking is what separates journalists from hacks.
“Journalist” implies factual information, not science fiction. If someone writes a “news” story about the magic land of Xanth because they can’t tell the difference between a Piers Anthony novel and a scientific study it’s not Piers Anthony’s fault for being too “tricky”.

Woo, woo, chugga, chugga, choo, choo

It doesn’t fall off, but it does start to break down pretty quickly. And ambient UV light makes it fade even faster. But if the print is dark and bold, and you store it someplace cool and dark, it should last a year or 2. Having said that, I have noticed that somehow, for some unknown reason, the registers in departments where you make big purchases, like say the electronics department, always seem to print much much lighter than the rest of the registers. It’s some kind of unsolvable mystery that can never be understood.

More like Uncle Pedo sold both of your kidneys to the triads and now he’s trying to blame the family’s anger at him on your asthmatic lungs not being good enough for the triad, so that’s why he sold them the second kidney instead of 1 lung and 1 kidney.
