$600 for 32GB ram seems bananas

I did most of my CS class tests this way within the last year. It’s not that bad because prof doesn’t care about syntax so much (unless that’s what we’re testing on of course) and details, but wanting instead to make sure we understand broader concepts.

We’ve been using Apple Wallet (and Google Pay) with bar code scanners with some success, but the bar codes sometimes do not scan correctly and we get garbled or completely wrong data maybe 1 in 20-30 scans. Tried various scanner settings/speeds, etc, no dice so far, and the scanner/pos combo was the one recommended by our processing vendor. Both were among the highest dollar models. This looks like a very cool project!

Assuming ir means infrared, you could get one of these (or any ir transceiver) and decode the signals and use it or whatever to send them out if your $thing dies.

Brits gave up their firearms in 1997. Less than 30 years later, they're being arrested for Facebook posts.

You don't know what you're talking about when you decide that 'well regulated' means what you think it means. It is because you have done no research on the topic. Here: https://www.heritage.org/the-essential-second-amendment/the-...

If a person shouldn't have firearms, then they shouldn't be on the street. They should be in jail/prison. Period. I don't know that anyone that has argued that prisoners should have guns. You would have to be a fool. If a person shouldn't have access to guns, then they shouldn't have access to any other freedom. The ultimate purpose of owning firearms is to fight a tyrannical government. For that purpose, less limits is better for the people. This right is absolute, and anyone espousing otherwise is a tyrant or a fool.

Might have read it but clearly didn't understand the point of the sacrifice and the new covenant. You shouldn't be telling young children they're going to burn in hell for eternity any more than you should talk to them about sex.

Murder is wrong.

Every citizen worth a damn should own guns and the idea that they should not be regulated by the government is enshrined in the 2nd amendment to the US constitution. Every gun law created since is an abberation that should be abolished.

>> Nothing is sacred.

This is the thought process of the morally depraved, upon which every tyrannical government establishes its power.

Citizens should be allowed to own UAVs, nukes, tanks, helicopters, and jets. It says in the text: "shall not be infringed." Besides that, who do you think is going to do the fighting, exactly?

This problem didn't happen in the 50s and 60s, when people brought their guns to school for funsies.

Worst take today. The 2nd amendment was the SECOND thing the founders put in for a reason. They just got done fighting a war against the government with WEAPONS OF WAR. It was written specifically to enable fighting against tyrannical government, which is VASTLY worse than all mass shooters combined.

If every adult that could carry a gun did, there would be much less mass shooting. It would be minimized shooting, in fact.

It only takes believing in 1 miracle to be able to believe in any of them. It only takes witnessing one miracle to witness many.

It was clearly told to the American people that this would happen before the election, repeatedly. This is what the American people voted for.

The US Treasury can't track $4.7 trillion in payments. Medicare sent $2.7 trillion overseas to people that weren't eligible. Pentagon lost track $2.5 trillion. Social Security sends $100 billion a year to people with no identity. Department of Education spends $50 billion a year to make your kids gay. USAID spends $50 billion a year to make everybody else gay.

And you think all of that is 'not fraud'? IDGAF what it's called, people should go to prison and no other president has even tried to get in touch with this filth.

You can mount it as a network drive. Which means you can run Voidtools Everything on it to insta-search files and grep through wsl.
