Bitch, I did the guest checkout so I wouldn't have to make an account. It's never "faster" or "more convenient" to check out - my browser already has my details saved, I don't need my credit card and personal info stored in yet another poorly secured database just waiting for the next breach and another free year of credit monitoring.

Take your accounts and mailing lists and fuck off already.

I guess it was inevitable that my fellow millennials would carry on the age-old tradition of shitting on the younger generation's new slang, styles, and behaviors. I don't know why I thought we might break the cycle.

Your Independent Grocer

Bullshit branding on point.

Yes, but choose one with a smaller beaver tail. The 75 series would be far too pokey in the clavicle.

Suppressive fire is a thing, and it does look like this would be good enough to do that.

The real limitation is magazine capacity for that role. Slap a drum mag on there instead and you've got a winner.

security experts Runa Sandvik and Michael Auger demonstrated that naive software design left the rifle's aiming computer open to remote hacking when its Wi-Fi capability was turned on

Not even "smart" weapon designers are taking embedded device security seriously enough. I wish I were surprised.

They don't care as long as they can get in, make a few bucks, and get out. Long-term stability isn't the priority anymore, just quick profits.

I thought the earth was breaking one heat record after another this year?

On average, it is. But the other effect of climate change, and a big part of the reason it isn't generally referred to as "global warming" anymore, is an increase in weather extremes worldwide. Rainstorms are wetter, droughts are drier, cold snaps are colder, and heat waves are hotter.

A single strand would be a delight. I seem to always get a full face full of web.

As someone who works in taste

Is this an exotic way of saying that you're a chef?

I don't think I'll ever get used to seeing things from my childhood described as "Vintage and Retro". I know it's inevitable, but it still feels weird.
