I used to care about stuff like this. But then I stopped and life has been great!

I have never been asked by a bank, credit union, or investment broker if I am conservative. Can a conservative explain to me What the hell is the issue?

It would be cool if they brought back the self-hosted security camera solution UniFi Protect.

I think it's crazy to use anecdotal evidence to decide to continue to use a gun with a small chance of accidental discharge.

Dont all guns have a small chance of accidental discharge? Improper handling and ignoring the firearm safety rules is not something I regularly do.

There are really two separate claims being made about the P320 and unintentional discharges.

One claim is that the gun can fire when dropped at a certain angle from a certain height. The voluntary "recall" lets you send it back to Sig and they replace some parts. I think the cause was because the trigger itself was bulky enough for a drop to give it enough inertia to fire, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

The other claim is that the P320 can fire without being dropped, and while holstered, seemingly on it's own. That's all I really know about it.

I own a P320, and I consider it an unsafe weapon at this point. I have not had the self-recall fix done and I'll never chamber a round in it again, so I guess it's a paperweight now.

I've had one since before the military adopted it. I've been carrying it for years daily. It has never once went off on its own. I run with it, jump with it, have carried it in a small cross body bag. It has never just fired by itself. I have over 5k rounds through it.

The only time my gun has went off was when I pulled the trigger. Has your gun ever went off without pulling the trigger?

Most of the videos I see on YouTube are people who were fiddling with the gun, in some kind of physical altercation, or carry some sort of back on the side they carry. I didn't get the fix from Sig either.

It's called the Kebab menu now. I'm a fan of chicken.

Seriously though, I know I'm getting old. But I feel like it's younger designers that didn't grow up using old interfaces. I don't like the switch to this new paradigm where every app has to recreate the wheel with their UX.

This was a cool read. Thanks for sharing.reminds me of the first time I saw a beehive as a city boy. It was a indoor wall hive at the West River UM summer camp near DC.

It's not my <insert company name>. Has been my mantra lately. If I mention that a quarterly update cycle for mission critical software is too long in the context of security and the desktop enginners don't agree...I just repeat my mantra. I did recently develop a fix to a stupid bug a company said was working as expected. So I don't always stick to the mantra. But I'll disagree once. But then I commit to whatever management wants no matter how boneheaded. They're smart enough to see their dumb idea failed without me rubbing their noses in it.

Espanso looks promising but Atext (paid) fits niche very nicely for me.

With atexts gui it makes building new entries easy. I even have a keyboard shortcut to use highlighted text to quickly make a new entry.

I have used it to write emails, make automation's for certain websites that take keyboard shortcuts. I use it to build query searches for certain websites I use frequent (kinda like firefox back in the day).
