The startup claims that all use of AI for the military will be consistent with OpenAI usage guidelines, which are determined by OpenAI itself.

Hoppes #9 (for cleaning firearms). Dad was in the army and would come home smelling like it.

Oh man, how has ‘The Fall’ not been mentioned?!

It’s one of the most visually stunning movies I’ve ever seen, and the story will tear your heart out.

Someone has been watching too much Clarksons Farm, lol

Confused the shit out of me for a sec

REDACTED

I guess “undesirables” don’t count as part of the citizenry? You’re only reinforcing my point, that the government stripped firearms from the people they wanted to kill/oppress. If it wasn’t worth doing, nobody would have done it. Instead, Pol Pot, Hitler, Idi Amin, Stalin, Kim I’ll Sung, Mao, Mussolini, etc., have ALL taken away firearms in some way from their peoples.

Almost every tyrannical regime in the 20th century systematically disarmed their citizenry, leading to some of the greatest atrocities the world has ever seen. It’s not a coincidence.

Just to say something different then the definition, I would describe it as both a representation of, and the justification for, the government’s monopoly on violence.

Perhaps, but I’d guess the risk of assassination rises with influence as opposed to their own views on violence

To be fair, so was Malcolm X

Crazy flick

So it would resemble the beginning of the universe, but smaller. Neat.

In my experience, it totally depends on the shop and what kind if environment the owners are trying to cultivate. I’ve been to super competitive shops that are crazy anal about sticking to game rules, rude to newcomers, etc, and I’ve been to others (like my current shop) that realize we’re a bunch of middle aged fucks playing with toys (40k is my shit).

More often than not, though, the vibe is going to be a welcoming one. As others have said, its more people to play games with! Especially in the plastic crack community, where there’s certainly a 30 year Warhammer veteran just waiting for a newbie to dump their lore knowledge into.

Local gaming shops are good options if you’re in an urban/suburban area. Many run regular events for TableTop Role Playing Games like Pathfinder and DnD, Warhammer, board game tournaments, etc… Many also host discord servers so folks can make “LFG” (Looking For Game) type posts.

Obviously its going to depend where you are, but I’ve found it to be a great place to socialize when I’m bored.

After some further reading it seems obvious that the two incidents are entirely unrelated, but it was a fun rabbit hole for a sec!

Edited to say “usually”, apologies, lol
