Yeah pretty much, I think. Though technically bolt action means the lever is directly operating the bolt IIRC, I’m not sure that’s what the AR 15 charging handle is doing

Turn your semi auto AR-15 into a semi AR-15 with this one weird trick

HK416 IIRC

Yeah, the “lidar is useless” guy whose cars are consistently crashing into things when visibility is bad is telling us that he can do the same thing with missile targeting systems… Sounds like a great idea

Not sure if you’re joking but the German Stielhandgranate was literally nicknamed “potato masher” by soldiers, so there may be some truth to that

“Vous” is the first one that comes to mind in french. But since it is also a more formal (and/or “respectful”) version of “tu/toi”, it can both designate a group of people or a single person, depending on the context (just like “you” in English). Sometimes people will use “vous tous” (literally “you all”) to make this clear.

It is a little better than the “you” situation in English since if you are speaking with someone that is not using the singular form of “vous” to speak about you (which is basically anyone you are familiar with unless they are your boss or In-laws and kind of oldschool), it is instantly clear what they mean at least.

Amazing. I feel like there is a similar story (of the “why would you even do that ?” variety) behind this label as with the MAS-36 bayonet hole

Huh. Not as bad as I expected. Also I am somehow not surprised that this has actually been done enough to be documented

Don’t eat the C4.

What if I wanna taste the forbidden dough

Too credible

I’ve never had to use it for important stuff tbh. But alongside a regex tester and a sample of the stuff I intend to use it on, I’ve had good results with an incremental approach where I tell the LLM what I want to change with the expression until I’m satisfied

All my homies hate regexs. That’s actually the best use case I found for LLMs so far : I just tell it what I want it to match or not match, and it usually spits out a decent one

Tell me about it, all the juniors were doing it at my old job, and I was usually the one tasked with fixing their shit. And since we basically didn’t do any form of mentoring (including code reviews) it was such a pain in the ass to get them to change their ways

Nah I’m depressed but still curious af

Found the American. In France that would be a huge ripoff compared to what the other providers have to offer. Like, literally any VDSL offer is around 30€/month (or under) and no caps

Could even be a lever action. Or that’s one big-ass trigger guard

This. I didn’t spend nearly 1000 bucks on hardware that ensures that I basically spend more time on the POST screen than on the rest of the entire boot sequence to keep the thing on 24/7

Let me rephrase it then : “in order to not bomb your civilian ass, we need to know where the Ukrainian armed forces are located”. Even if the Ukrainian army was using their own civilians as meat shields that wouldn’t make much sense because the Russians would still have to bomb civilians in order to bomb the army… So the only explanation is that they’re basically saying “rat on your army, or else” here.

I keep joking that we should make video games mandatory for millionaires when this subject comes up but I legit think that playing some grindy game or management games would make this type of people less greedy to some degree, because at their core they appeal to our seemingly primal urge of always hoarding more resources.

Including cooling because casings actually absorb quite a lot of the heat generated by the propellant iirc (which is then easily removed from the weapon by ejecting the spent casing)
