From a certain point of view, you are 100% correct.

From a different point of view, he's a person with meat and blood held together with a fleshy bag thing, and propped up by calcium sticks. Or "inefficient bag of mostly water" if you wish.

Not everybody is useful. Every body can be good fertilizer.

The most reliable one I have uses an AR style fire control group, and large metal pieces for the bolt, and pre-hardened hydraulic tubing for the barrel.

There's plenty of metal in it, all held together via 3d printed parts and frame

The only things I needed to buy that I would consider "from a firearm" or "from a gun store" would be the fire control group. Everything else was bought from McMaster Carr or local hardware stores.

Spot on with the woodworking. I've made a couple stocks for my grandfather's old broken long rifles. It's just more time consuming. (also my 3d printer isn't that long)

The ones I have use 3d printed frames, the fire control group and barrels are metal with 3d printed pieces for making the rifling.

All the parts that take repeated heavy abuse are reinforced with extra thickness or different infil, but by weight I'd say it's about 50/50 metal/plastic.

The 3d printed lowers are quite basic, and since they aren't designed to take a ton of stress anyway, it's not really hard to find a decent design.

All my parts are printed in pla+, and I do minimal work afterwards to make things perfect, only what is necessary for the mechanical parts to cycle properly.

I actually haven't been keeping up the last few years, I wouldn't be surprised if there are even better methods than the ones I've used.

Important to note: 3D PRINTED FIREARMS DO NOT BREAK WITH A FEW USES

Firsthand knowledge.

200-250 rounds and still going strong, inspected before and after firing every time

No damage so far.

Beyond that point, I agree with everything posted.

Fertilizer for a field.

TERRIFYING PRECISION and ARCHITECTURAL GENIUS of checks notes

"Knowing how shadows and windows work"

Man, the bar is unrealistically high for some people...

As someone who never planned on playing Balatro, and was kind of getting tired of seeing it on my feed the way I got tired of helldivers 2 stuff right after release.

I would happily toss a tenner to the dev for a lawyer over this.

.... Dodging?

Is that some kind of move weaklings make when they can't take a hit?

This comment brought to you by The Tank Gang (heavily backed up by Supports)

but provides no evidence of wrongdoing

So surely it will be rejected and nobody being sued will even need to show up since nobody even has any evidence?

Surely....

I read it more as "saying this will contribute to" rather than "proof of"

must’ve read David vs. Goliath and sided with the Goliath.

Bold of you to assume that they can read, or that they have read the Bible.

In my experience not even "devout Christians" do that last one.

Clearly they never spoke to Bobby Tables.

saw war as a thrilling, life-or-death, adventure.

That just sounds like psychopath-lite...

Oh man, I missed bullpupping memes...

if the characters behave too unnatural

My wife doesn't get this.

I can't stand watching some movies because every part of the movie is just one character doing something unnatural or outright insane that nobody would ever do, and the people around them react in similarly unnatural and insane ways.

And certain old movies (especially holiday oriented ones) that lean heavily into the "everyone here is a bumbling idiot" trope crank this up to 11.

If you enjoy said things, awesome. Good for you. Keep watching them, it literally does not affect me. I'm genuinely glad you have entertainment. I just won't watch it with you.

Five) is a good one. Like "oh shit.... I fucked this one up too much, I guess I'll see how it turns out but I'm gonna start over with a new batch"

I'd love to see someone more creative with writing than me do some writing prompts with that premise. Maybe have someone from this universe ascend or something and actually confronts god as they're spending time with their new family creation.

六> is also a good one, it reminds me of the idea that every single person is God. And when all of humanity has finally lived and died, god will become a single consciousness and join the rest of their kind. It kind of pairs poetically with Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot.

1: you are absolutely correct

B- YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT MY MAMMA REEEEE

She's college educated with a degree to teach math k-12, which just goes to show even a good education isnt always enough to make people see logic and reason.

The way I figure it, one of a few possibilities is true:

1 there is a god. He lets all the bad shit happen, and therefore isn't worthy of dedication.

B: there is no god. Shit happens. Nobody is there to be worthy of dedication.

III- there is a god. It kicked off the big bang and sat back to watch. Either it has the ability to affect positive change and doesn't, or it can't. In which case, it's still not worthy of dedication.

The end result is the same for me

"Slow, or quick?"

shitty game devs couldn’t cater to their paying customers

Oh look, OP caught one!
