It's sad to see people making comments such as, "I don't own any guns. I'm secure in my masculinity." What exactly does this mean? I'm happy with the size of my Mr. Winkie. I have gay friends even though I'm straight. I've had sex with a few women... So why paint all people with a broad brush? I choose to exercise my rights as an American, it's your choice if you would like to do the same. Sorry if you don't agree with the rights I have, maybe I should fight to take away the rights of others that I don't see any need for? Sounds fair, right?

The only thing I would actually consider a "weapon" would probably be my Boker Kalashnikov modified Wharncliffe Automat.

Seeing as I always carry it on my person, and it is always within arms length. All my other knives are mostly just collecting dust, even my $200 Benchmades lol... I suppose if it came down to it, any of them could be a "weapon", but this is just what is usually available.

Get some ballpoint pens for your arsenal bro.

I've got Beowulf upper on my AR15. Fifty-calibur bullets FTW. Home defense of course. Shoot first, bury the body later if you know what I mean.

Now in which warzone do you live in to feel the need for an AR15 for protection?

Just bought my new primary concealed carry pistol, a Kahr 9mm sub compact. It's small enough to carry very comfortably as it only weighs in at 15.9 ounces unloaded. This particular pistol shoots like a dream considering how small it is.

An "update" - I had my Boker taken away. Was pulled over by an officer on a bad day I guess (5 miles over the speed limit), and to avoid my ticket he basically offered me a trade.... My knife, for him ripping the ticket up. I of course obliged him, since technically a Boker isn't a "common pocket knife" by Florida standards, so that was also obviously to avoid further troubles & technicalities...

I now carry a much smaller, Kershaw Scallion, which in my opinion is much more civ friendly. $200 Benchmades still collecting dust. Lolweapons.

First AR...just picked it up today. Can't wait to go to the range.

How much did it run you? I need a good rifle for general hunting, recreation, etc., and I like the M4/M16 style of weapon because I'm used to it.

$675...I haven't seen them much cheaper than that online either. I bought mine right from the local gun shop.

$675...REALLY! Ones just like that are $1,000 to $1,500 here.

The S&W M&P15 is the cheapest AR-type rifle out there now. Before the M&P, the lowest price was found on the Stag Arms (still a great company). The biggest differences between the M&P and almost every other AR is the lack of forward assist and there's no door over the ejection port.

    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
