Get on the grindset, steal consumer electronics and catalytic converters from your own family.

Executive dysfunction go brrr

I feel like there’s a followup with that fucking dragon as the giant hologram, and I’m trying not to imagine it.

Mmm fecal microparticles

There’s some subtle differences in the frame shape and other things that I’m too dumb to articulate. The only marks I can see are import marks from “CAI” - Century International Arms, which would be strange to see on a USGI 1911.

I think this model is a Star BM, and surplus retailers were hocking these things for ~$250-300, about 6/7 years ago. I almost got one but decided against it.

It’s some Star model pistol, looks like a 1911 but not quite, and in 9mm.

A cheap springer airsoft pistol works pretty good in my experience

Even back then, once the public support died down a bit they just had the NYPD bulldoze the whole thing. Since then the police have only gotten more brazenly violent against protests that are not in the establishment’s interests.

Shit will get “wild” when instead of picket signs and bullhorns, people start bringing rifles and pipe bombs. Otherwise the outcome of any meaningful protest will be the same no matter how many people show up: an unforgiving police crackdown.

AI’s most successful accomplishment is going to be its ability to parse the astronomical amounts of personal data corporations and governments have been collecting for the last 20 years. Enshittification and the identification, surveillance, and targeting of dissidents.

My take is that it’s a joke of “what anarchists think they do” as the top comic vs “what anarchists actually do” as the dilapidated trap house.

I’m not an anarchist but something tells me that going to Lemmy to shit on anarchists wouldn’t be well-received.

Then it becomes an issue of intent, and how someone looking into you might interpret your intent. You might end up legally in the right but still end up harassed, jailed, and/or put on trial with all the costs that entails in the meantime.

If you’re underwater financially or you’re clearing out an estate sale, its a legal avenue, but I wouldn’t make a habit of selling self-made guns.

My read on things is that a lot of kids are also lacking in basic computer skills like typing, since their main device is a smartphone.
