Well you know what they say, the camera adds 10 lbs.

More options is always good (they can miss me with that gen AI trash though)

I wonder how easy it is to use compared to GIMP or Krita?

(I still suck with Krita but that's a me thing lol)

Audacity does as well and I use it to edit pictures sometimes.

Yes pictures.

You can get some interesting effects from it.

The shaft was only a 7.3?!?

Well we know what they're into...

Yeah the 22LR is for fun for me not for defense. The 5.56 and 30-06 are quite expensive per shot by comparison so they're shot less for fun and more for making sure I'm still skilled with them.

9mm Parabellum

I've never heard 9mm referred to as that (had to look it up to be sure) but yeah 9mm and 5.56 NATO rounds are great choices as they're available basically anywhere here in the states. So is 30-06, 308, and 22LR.

Personally I've got guns that take 5.56, 30-06, and 22LR. The 22LR are consistently the cheapest ones to shoot and I usually buy them by the box of 500. Among my friend group the only deviation is those that have handguns, they've got guns that take 9mm and 38 special as well.

Remember folks: don't just buy it, train with it.

And if you can get like minded friends to do the same even better.

Personally I'm not a fan of handguns, I prefer rifles but both are good at poking holes.

Also be sure to pick a firearm that takes a common type of round, the last thing you need to worry about is trying to find some obscure round type when you need it.

Born too late to die in war over oil, born too early to die in war over oil, born just in time to die in war over oil.

Those "Private Not for Commerce" plate make me laugh every time I see them. I work in freight and every time someone shows up with those to pick up their freight I can't give them their freight due to DOT.

They also almost always don't have a valid license of any kind as well, which means that even if they did show up in a valid vehicle I can't release it because I can't confirm the identity of whose picking it up.

I'm paid by the hour so I have a right proper giggle every time explaining it to them.

Magma is stored in the balls I see

That explains a lot

After awhile it's cozy y'know?

The roar of heavy machinery whirring away for 9+ hours a day, pulsing at thousands of RPM, the calm of solving puzzles in the chaos... it's peaceful.

The news folks always ask me how I keep my sanity in all the noise and chaos, and it always makes me laugh. It takes a special kind of crazy to do my job for as long as I have and it shows.

Every day loading and unloading trucks with 60 other forklifts all blasting around on a dock with only 130 doors while going 8mph. It rains, you get wet. It snows, you plow through it. It's 100F outside, it's 110F on the dock and 120F in the trailers. The sun rises, you get to watch it rise over the snowy mountains. The sun sets, you get to watch it over the water.

It's not for everyone, but damn can it be right for the right kinda of people.
