  • Jesus Fucking Christ, pick a side, article:

    Average age of shooter was 16
    "It’s not really about gun ownership"
    More than half of the shooters got the firearm they used from a family member or a relative. About 30% got a weapon from the illegal market, while 22% obtained weapons from friends or acquaintances.

    So 70% got it through someone who legally owned the gun already, and 30% bought it illegally. A 16 year old cannot purchase a gun legally.

    SURE SEEMS LIKE PEOPLE OWNING A GUN IS A FACTOR, THEN, HUH

  • Firstly, your 'instance' is just like your email server. It doesn't matter if it's @yahoo.com or @google.com, I can still email you and you can respond. Some people even have their own servers.

    Next, imagine if Facebook, Instagram and Twitter users could all follow each other's posts. The posts are already pretty much the same but we just add @Facebook or @Twitter to the end. You could log in to one, but see posts from the others. The only difference is the layout and design of the interface, like the difference between 'Gmail' and 'Outlook'.

    You can also move between servers easily if you want. Sick of @Facebook? Move to @Instagram without losing followers.

  • Seriously - the most dangerous roads I've ever been on were in Texas where there were 12 lane highways, and crazy people who wanted to drive 100MPH past you in the right-hand lane, all while people are merging on and off the highway.

    Doing the speed limit meant that EVERYONE was driving faster than you, which meant that you were a lot more likely to get rear-ended from someone who didn't see you in time. You have to speed to stay safe, and then you add in construction zones and it's just a death trap.

    Where is our public transportation option?

  • Or better yet - don't interview him at all. Do an exposé piece on him that details everything and run it primarily in his district if you want to actually affect change.

    The fact that he's being interviewed only adds to his credibility, and no matter what happens here, people are going to think he's just misunderstood, since "He'd be in jail if this were all true, right?"

    He should be.

  • Do installs of the same game by the same user across multiple devices count as different installs?

    We treat different devices as different installs. We don’t want to track identity across different devices.

    Jesus Christ. A single user can freely install the game repeatedly and bankrupt a creator.

  • Something which, notably, happens on around 1% of all applications, but is prosecuted less than 0.000005% of the time.

    From 2008 - 2012 there were 32 million background checks, and 373,900 rejections.

    Between FY 2008 and FY 2015, an 8-year period, ATF formally referred 509 NICS denial
    cases that included 558 subjects to USAOs for possible prosecution. The USAOs
    accepted for consideration of prosecution 254 subjects (or less than 32 subjects per
    year) and declined to prosecute 272 subjects.

    32 prosecutions a year for an average of 6 million background checks (completed, there is a much larger number for bg checks initiated)
