oh and I'd rather not say where I live, sorry. It's a state in the US that has alot of ###### in it. Maybe that'll help.

It must really be a ****ty place! Hell man there are 52 States and about 270 000 000 people living in America. Tell IK .:. 47 what state you come from! I am sure he will not find you amongst all that! :blink:

yup...we are hunters...

2 remington 870 combo pump 12 gauge shotguns

1 winchester 20 gauge breakbarrel shotgun

1 .22 LR rifle

1 air pellet rifle

1 remington .270

1 30-30 lever action rifle

all hunting guns...and they can also be used to protect the house...

this reminds me of Bowling for Columbine...

If guns made people safer then america would be the safest place in the world... but sadly its not even close

Michael Moore can be so against guns but when he speaks about how much they are not needed in this country and then well just read the link

Give me my guns!!! What would you do if someone broke into your house and all you had was a butterknife to protect you and your whole family?

While I personally don't own any guns becuase i'm 19, my dad has always had guns and will pass them to me when he dies. I'm sure in the near future I'll buy some. They are so fun to shoot anyways!

He never said that all guns should be illegal.

The point of the movie was to discuss what makes America so violent.

did they add two more states without telling anyone?

Where's the;

"No, because its not right for me. However, I don't wish to infringe upon other's rights by disapproving of them altogether."

Maybe not in so many words, but you get the point. <Null Vote>

I would never consider purchasing a firearm. It just doesn't seem like a wise choice for the family I will one day have when I grow older. Here in California I could legally own a firearm even if I'm only 16, but I must have an adult present when I'm in posession of the firearm. If you're 14 or under, you can't handle a firearm at all.

I'm totally against owning them for "self-defence". The cirminals are usuaully the ones with the shoot first mentality.

I would like to shoot some handguns at a shooting range though. I admit, its fun to shoot a gun at a target ... I shot with a .22 when I was a teenager for a few days.

Side note: for real kicks I'd like to shoot a .50 cal desert eagle sometime in my life. Would you need to be super strong to handle the recoil or is there a trick? Yes, I know a box of bullets are going to be bloody expensive.

That is such a narrow-minded quote that I am not surprised it came from that Buffoon.

Guns are not, nor were they ever, meant to make the world safer. They are meant as a tool to help protect, but not guarantee, your rights and privileges and namely your safety.

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
