The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

It's frightening that this is the state of gun ownership in the US, and that the companies making the poison are probably now also selling you the cure. But all things considering, this might actually be a useful application of the tech.

Sure thing, buddy, corporations, and police forces and governments never overreach or do things they’re not supposed to do or get hacked or have crazy fucking leaders telling them what to do, I want you to think about what you just said and tell me again if it’s a good idea https://youtu.be/O-2tpwW0kmU
