Yes. Because the internet has never existed before. I read the anarchist cookbook in my government class on my high school issues school iPad.
It was a public high school in Indiana. Idk if I would label it as good
Well my high school certainly couldn’t afford one! But that’s mostly cuz we didn’t even have smart phones back then lol
There’s a lot more grants for them now. I live in the poorest county in my state and our poorest school has a bunch of carts full of iPads. Of course I’m sure that’s not the case for every state but most of the schools in my county are 1 to 1
I was just joshin but that’s cool tho. We got yelled at for checking our flip phones lol
Same. Had one teacher who got off on confiscating phones. Also he taught us logarithms so we could learn log tables instead of use calculators. Real Luddite. Dude was also a pervert and coached the girl’s track team. And an awful teacher. My god this man should’ve been in a jail not a school
Lol every school has at least one of each of those.
That was the only thing t9 eas great for, sending msgs covertly.
We had a guy like that at mine, he was one of the computer class teachers and always made sure to help out the girl wearing the lowest cut shirt each day smh
Wait a minute, wtf is a school issue iPad? That's what property taxes pay for now? This is bullshit
Pads are useful due to convenience. They are simpler devices to pull out of a bag and interface with compared to a laptop. A laptop is objectively better for most tasks but the whole getting it out and unfolding it is a chore.
It's kind of hard to explain. They're just way more portable than a laptop for quick-access stuff.
I have a laptop and a pad at home, the pad gets way more use because it's just easier to cart it around the place as a mobile internet browser... And that is more or less all it is, an internet browser.
If opening a laptop is too much work idk what to tell you...
I never said it's too much work, I'm saying that if a better device exists people would prefer to use the better device.
If the task is simply to have a notepad and web browser then carrying a pad around all day is just more convenient to carrying a laptop around all day. The laptop has a million extra things it can do of course but ultimately the 2 things you do with 99% of your usage as a student are to scribble down small notes which you can do with a stylus and get automatically converted into typed font or browsing the web.
Same goes for general around the house use really.
A laptop is only necessary when your work is more complicated than web browsing and taking notes, for example if you need to do video or image editing while mobile, or 3d editing, etc etc. More complex tasks. For most people's usage a pad is simply a more convenient device.
Nah tablets are semi useful garbage. They don’t have an onboard keyboard making them useless for school. Only good for consuming media.
I remember when the first gen iPad came out. I thought it was a joke and no one would buy one except for niche uses. Here I am today and it’s one of the most popular devices and I just don’t understand why. Literally everything it can do a laptop or a smartphone does better.
Hero. Will never forget what he did, unironically braver than any troop.
Willem van Spronsen. He raided a ICE facility.

:xi-lib-tears: now remember kids, release the prisoners too.
If the book version of Fight Club is to be believed, you file a deep X into the tip of each one, causing it to split open on impact. It may or may not be true, but I'm not gonna put myself on more lists by looking it up.
It's true, but obviously it won't work as well as a bullet made to be HP from the start.
It is generally considered the better choice for self defense.
That's a different situation. In self defense you're most likely facing a single or maybe low number of opponents, who most likely have little to no training, who most likely have no armor. In this case hollow points are good because they expand on impact and dump the majority of their energy into the target.
In a situation of collective defense you're more likely to face a societal breakdown scenario, so armored opponents become more likely. Armories will eventually be raided, and even an average police station has hard armor/soft armor on hand. In this situation ball ammunition is the go to because it's plentiful, reliable, and generally good enough. It's not armor piercing, but at this level of combat training and resources are going to be the deciding factor essentially 99% of the time.
Full auto rifles are so dumb. Any one who has used one will tell you full auto fire is basically pointless. There are exactly three situations where full auto is useful 1: laying down covering fire when you have lots of extra ammo. 2: Shooting into a crowd of unarmored people say like at a concert or school. 3: Shooting the shit out of old cars for fun.
You can also just make a semi auto a "full auto" using a rubber band if you really needed to, so having a full auto in the US is just attracting needless federal weapons charges for a gun that could otherwise be totally legal and thousands of dollars cheaper
full auto is for noobs.
You forgot the most important one, wasting government and military officials as they view state parades, that's what they get for signing deals with Americans and zionists.
Even for that semi-auto is better unless they're all sitting together and your goal is to wound but not necessarily kill every one.
They were all sitting together in Egypt that one time so it worked
Wouldn't hollow points be bad when fighting against an organisation like the US Military? I think even most Kevlar vests should be able to stop a hollow point, even if it's a rifle round. Though my gun knowledge is very limited.
Basically, yeah. Though I could a potential school shooter scenario where this would really exasperate an already shitty situation.
Yeah this tiktok stuff sounds very school/mass shooter inspired. Like if you're fighting the actual military I don't see a fully automatic assault rifle or hollow point bullets being useful outside of a few niche scenarios. But those kind of things could make a mass or school shooting 10 times worse.
yep if you actually wanted to learn some useful skills you'd learn stuff like land navigation, hunting and trapping, rifle marksmanship, etc
basically learn to be a hunter. Which are just good skills in general
It would be so dope to have a vegan hunting group.
You could skin a cactus together
peyote, tho, peyotes get the wall. of blotter paper. under my tongue.
Just use the commonly available Peruvian torch or San pedro instead. Peyote takes for fucking ever to grow and its population has been massively hurt by people picking it to trip. I guess I'm a cactus guy now.
Folks, I'm getting the feeling that President Xi isn't actually personally curating my tiktok feed. Damnit I had some real good videos I wanted to show him
President Tiktok vs. President Tweet battle royale to the death
Hollow points aren't illegal most places
Full auto can be accomplished with a coat hanger.
I vaguely remember hollow points are actually good because they don't over-penetrate walls and such, so bystanders in the next few apartments/houses are safer.
That's technically true, but I'm gonna be real with you. I've never seen a bullet go through less than 2 sheets of drywall. That's going into another room either way.
Yeah, shotguns with buckshot pellets is probably the best way to make sure you're not gonna spray bullets all through the neighborhood. It's either that or maybe we do socialism so people don't need to do crimes to pay rent.
i had knowledge of printing [Parody Retracted NonActionable] for years. even thinking about finally doing it now that my printer is mostly dialed in
There is premade gcode for ender 3s that prints way better than anything i can slice myself.
oh, imagine someone played a prank on me and slipped that gcode into my dms? i’d be so owned
Sorry fed(mostly joking), you gotta find it on your own (its super fucking illegal (even in the US) to just openly distribute the files). That being said they aren't hard to find and if you know detdisp on twitter you already know where to look.
Afaik the legality is questionable but not yet outright legal. I had a few strangely try to follow me home over my bouts of curiousity.
