I remember the fiasco about the Tim Hortons app constantly tracking your location data even when the app wasn't open. Apparently it kept track of your visits to their competitors.

Horton hears a who?

i'm sure other countries have no idea where the fearmongering comes from in the US lol. I mean I have a gun and sure the area where I live isn't the safest but i'm not really expecting someone to bust down my door and kill everyone inside my apartment, nor do I expect to get robbed at gunpoint walking to my car and I tend to avoid areas at night time that are riddled with crime.

meanwhile you have dudes in affluent areas who are gun nuts under the guise of "home defense" just hoping they get to shoot and kill someone, with their tacticool flashlight, cerakote'd gun, 20,000 home cameras and 3 shotguns and 4 pistols

maybe some of these carry ninjas should go help leon fight the ganados

Better to have it and not need it then not have it and not need it.

i feel like if you regularly feel the need to carry all that stuff, you should either A) move to a safer place or B) become a cop

besides, 100% of threats are stopped with a gun.

Forgot to mention people with magholders on their belt too lol

unironi see dudes post their every day carry setups and it consists of a knife, pepper spray, stun gun, and a gun with a flashlight. At that point are you carrying or being a mall ninja?

im gonna try to level all my jobs to 90 again before Dawntrail. Forgot how grindy this is

FFXIV also put me to sleep during 90% of it.

less gameplay, more roleplaying and stepping out of orange circle

truly epic and exciting to hear from the director of the game

just got wendys and paid through the app so i can get a $5 discount. Hooray!

i've been seeing QR codes popping up more, that link to apps. Like really?

I just stayed at a resort where to get service you either had to download the app, or pick up the phone, dial 0, ask to be redirected by the operator who may or may not be busy, to get sent to the correct place and try to communicate what you wanted, which they might not understand because of the language barrier as they speak spanish. Never staying there again.

The app is like thebonly thing that makes mcdonald's affordable now.

I have so many food apps from when I use to eat food.

my mom stopped at wendys yesterday and said she had a coupon from the app.

i was like do they just raise the prices of the food and put their old prices as "coupons" to force people into using it

Bruh

yes ik he's gone now, but he still ran this site for many many years

it's happening less these days but when websites or businesses force users to download an app kind of grinds my gears. Want to redeem your reward points? Use the app. Want a discount on our shitty overpriced fast food? Use the app. Want to not deal with the worst UI in history on our website? Use the app.

I'm surprised GameFAQs didn't go the way of the app yet, but I guess that's because SBAllen clings on to the "old" style of internet

flying to Japan is still expensive, sorry that not everyone wants to drop $2000+ a person on roundtrip plane tickets. Sure if you live in a sleep pod i'm sure actually staying there isn't that expensive

yawn

Doing my second play through with mods that actually effect gameplay (first was just some lewd stuff and a clock) and I found one that gives warfarer 3 slots for each individual vocation and man, it is fun being able to use almost any ability for any vocation I feel like at any given moment at a press of a button.

at that point though you might as well just use a one hit kill mod because the game will be ridiculously easy lol

@akagami_shanks Did you decide what RMR your gonna put on it/ if any? I just ordered my P-10 and debating if I want to run an optic on it. Comes with supressor height sights so I'll at least be good there with my can on it until I decide what I wanna do.

I have an amazon bought optic on it, it was still like $150, but I don't plan on shooting every day so it does the job fine for me. AT3 tactical

I passed the conceal carry training. All 4 of my references submitted the questionnaire yesterday, i paid $76 to the state, and have to pay another $150 to my local PD

not too shabby though, many people take months of shooting to get comfortable and on my 4th time shooting i pass with flying colors, only missed one shot that was just a little bit to the right of the head, otherwise i was a deadshot and landed shots. Head, neck, chest area, spots that would pretty much immediately down an attacker

Juhanor posted...

Hired last I played, she was level 11?

It's OK. IMO has gone a little too hard on the "wait a few days" type of quests, splitting strider into thief/archer kinda sucks especially with no advanced versions of either, some minor design choices that make me think "man I miss X from DD1..."
Not bad so far but not perfect.

was it worth 70 bucks?

how is the game

got an adjustable holster, taking the CCW training tomorrow, gonna practice at the range first so i don't embarass myself with my shots since i have a RDS and the zeroing might be off

Samurai_Man posted...

I have 5 Glocks ha... They just work.

smh you should have bought an obscure gun so TRUE gun nuts know that you're serious and not into mainstream.
People are weird lol

Patriotwolf posted...

Another glock guy. Original

Thank you for the bump

guess my bodys getting stronger, even though i took almost a week off the gym, i did an intense session yesterday and my knees aren't killing me. last time i could barely walk

Tyranthraxus posted...

I agree with this.

they took a stance on it with their response posted in the article. Technically they didn't have to say anything but they went out of their way to say it's a judgment free-zone.

Smallville posted...

yeah isn't like nj touhger than ny state, like texas or florida takes some of the least time?

nah https://sightmark.com/blogs/news/states-ranked-by-how-strict-their-gun-laws-are

cali has the most strict laws.

got a flashlight/laser combo, thought it wouldn't fit my gun so was set to return it, then i saw a YT vid that made me wanna try something and now i have installed it. Couldn't get the pin to come out for the magazine catch so i gave up on making the gun left handed friendly, and i had to buy a new mounting plate because the sight i bought uses a different style plate and my gun only came with a No 2. plate. Ugh. Gonna zero it at the range tuesday with my girlfriend and i'll have my home defense gun all set up

It's a trans-woman, the person refers to them as a man several times

with those strong facial features I can tell lol

the comments on the fox news article are funny. people talking about cancelling their PF memberships.

It's a weird reason to cancel, Cancel because it's a shitty gym, not because they technically enforced their judgment free zone policy lol

Ah yes, pesky background checks. /s

yes, its returned in less than an hour in every other state, hence the INSTANT in the acronym since the database is maintained by the FBI. But go ahead and miss the point

UT1999 posted...

you mean like a laser dot sight? are those expensive?

the underbarrel laser is a meme because it's kinda useless but i thought it'd be funny, it was only 30 bucks

Smallville posted...

you say they are unnecessary , you would want them banned? Are glocks your favorite gun brand? heard they are really ugly but might be the best.

i don't think they need to be banned, i just don't see myself really owning any of the big name ones, I'm fine with my self defense weapon.

I have disassembled my glock to install the optic when it comes in tomorrow, and to swap the magazine release from the left side to the right side and that was probably one of the most stressful things i've ever done lol

i gave my body a bit of a break because i think i have been stressing it out with my lack of eating and the scale drops 2 pounds lol. I ate like absolute shit towards the end of this week and my body is like "Phew, we're not starving thank god"

Smallville posted...

oh yeah like ar 15 style prob much more expensive than a glock, not sure if glock makes long guns.

They don't

went to the range today and shot a 556 and my glock. Rifles are cool but unnecessary for sure.

Bought a red dot sight and underbarrel flashlight for home defense from amazon, should be fun

TC donated to Amouranth several times and still doesn't know what she looks like apparently

Smallville posted...

Would you ever want like an ar 15 or rsomething similar, like a long gun? Is there like a limit to how much you would spend on a gun, like a grand

would I get a long gun? Sure, but I'm not an enthusiast so I wouldn't drop like $2000 on a gun. My limit would prob be like $800. I have no real purpose for a rifle besides shooting it at the range, at that point I might as well just rent it lol

Smallville posted...

did you get a pretty good price for you glock that you bought, like below avg.? Are glocks your favorite gun brand?

from what the community said, I was slightly overcharged.

I bought it because it was the brand I was most comfortable with as when I went to the range 3 times before deciding to buy a gun I used a Glock all 3 times. So I'm immediately familiar with the gun. If I do buy another one I'll get a Springfield hellcat or something. slightly unlikely I'll buy another gun but you never know

GranTurismo posted...

so you don't plan on getting a concealed...permit.....iirc some states are like much more strict to get one than other states, like night and day.

Not at the moment, it's pretty expensive and a lengthy process. Also has a lot of restrictions that are currently being challenged in a federal appeals court so I'm kinda waiting and seeing what happens with that, I'm perfectly fine with not using it though, NJ has pretty low gun crime rates and I don't live in the hood anymore. Better safe than sorry though in the odd chance I actually do need to use it one day. All it takes is one incident.

GranTurismo posted...

so used guns are almost always pretty solid guns right? yeah i guess way better than buying a used watch. Still probably as good as new. Not sure if you would save a ton though.

Well they ARE used for a reason. I imagine most are fine though but you don't really get to break it in yourself and it might have more wear and tear than you think. I'm no expert though and probably never will be. I would have saved almost $300.

GranTurismo posted...

how much was this, from an online gun dealer...etc..., isn't online usually cheaper but much more of a hassle? Would you ever buy a used glock?

$709. In store in Howell NJ, I was hoping to buy a used one for cheaper that I saw they had on their website but they didn't end up having it. It's better to buy in person IMO, online in NJ charges too many fees and many dealers rather not deal with the hassle of making stuff NJ-compliant.

Ok says the person buying a murder tool as if its the most normal thing in the world. Mental.

Cry about it buddy

masterbarf posted...

Do you keep one in the chamber?

How's the trigger pull weight?

No I only plan on using it when I'm going to the gun range, unless I get a concealed carry permit. It's a pretty heavy big boy gun too, I can see why people like compacts now. If you carry this thing around you're definitely gonna feel the weight

Zwijn posted...

Guns are the single most American cultural thing I just dont get. Completely alien concept to me, this just creeps me out for some reason. Uncalled for probably but thats just how I feel, its weird shit.

ok

they should triple the wait and do more extensive background tests tbh.

It's already instant, and with no background check if you're a criminal or have criminal intent, it's called stealing or buying it illegally.
SkittyOnWailord posted...

I assumed the gun range would provide the ammo. Or at least the indoor ones. I don't know anything about it though.

Many ranges are bring your own ammo. The ones that do sell ammo tend to have it way overpriced. I got 5 boxes of 50 rounds each for a little over $100. At RTSP each box would be $29.99, and it would cost me over $150. Sure it's cheaper online but I was already there, so might as well.

LonelyStoner posted...

I mean, if someone is threatening your safety and youre legally allowed to carry just aim for non vitals. People can shrug off pepper spray and tasers.

Can't legally carry until I take a $200 instruction/use of force course and pay another $200(soon to be $400) to the state, and then pay those fees again every 2 years lol.

I'm a pretty big guy but if the taser and pepper spray don't deter someone I guess I'll have to get down and dirty... I don't like fighting but if I have to I will.
SkittyOnWailord posted...

5 boxes of ammo. How many people do you expect to defend yourself from? Or is it for one really big intruder?

Have you ever heard of going to the gun range and practicing or shooting for fun?

background check came back, I have it now. 5 boxes of ammo. Also bought a stun gun and pepper spray for non lethal self defense, hopefully I never use it but hey this worlds getting crazier

SgtBash posted...

I ignored my ex when she kept trying to add me on Facebook.

She dumped me then a few weeks later she gets with an old mate, they have a kid together then the kid died, she moved onto another guy.

Then I found she moved back down to England.

I suspected after she dumped me it was because she'd secretly been with the other guy behind my back.

thats usually what it is when you suddenly get dumped and they're on to someone else in a very short amount of time

Did it help with your insecurity and your irrational fears?

Yes I feel much more secure than I already am being surrounded by armed security at work along with secure doors, and living a few minutes away from the police station.

Next.

a pistol

thronedfire2 posted...

how much did it cost?

I want to get a gun but my state doesn't let you buy guns if you've consumed marihuana in the last year(autocorrect just changed marijauna to marihauna, I did not know that was a thing now).

but any drunk idiot(we have a lot of them in massachusetts) can buy a gun.

$649 for a gun
$709 in total with NJ NICS fee and tax

Killmonger posted...

Pics?

I will have pics when the gun is officially made available to me probably friday/saturday. NJ makes you wait days in an attempt to annoy people exercising their 2nd amendment right and it's a wonder it hasn't been challenged in court yet lol

ask me anything
