Staying positive is good. It’s a bad cold, which just happens to kill some people, spreads very quickly, generally has zero preventative care other than sanitation, requires intensive care for for those it affects the worse, and generally overwhelms most any healthcare system. If you don’t think that China as well as the many parts of the world essentially pausing (quarantines, curfews, lockdowns, travel restrictions, delayed or shutdown shipping, loss of business to small businesses, etc etc etc) for weeks or months will have global consequences, I wish I could be as optimistic as you. I sincerely wish, hope, and pray the optimistic people are right this time.

I have! And my iPod was stolen out of my unlocked vehicle when I did.

Nice. https://charterfirearms.com/collections/pitbull/products/79920-9-mm-pitbull-rimless-revolver That is seriously making me want one.

You couldn't be criminally prosecuted for carrying at work, unless your employer specifically meets "posting" requirements. You could be fired for carrying, you could technically even be fired because they thought you carried in the past, or even because you had a Glock poster in your office or posted a photo of you shooting at the range to Instagram. The kicker...is that you likely would never find out "why" they fired you, other than the fact that they fired you. That is what "At will" means. In my opinion, that's exactly how it should be in the United States. A private company should be able to conduct business however it wishes, in my opinion.

The other night I noticed this on a truck in front me me. I recognized it as TN code so I snapped a quick photo so I could look it up later. The registration plate issued for passenger motor vehicles shall be attached on the rear of the vehicle. The registration plate issued for those trucks with a manufacturer's ton rating not exceeding three-quarter (3/4) ton and having a panel or pickup body style, and also those issued for all motor homes, regardless of ton rating or body style thereof, shall be attached to the rear of the vehicle. The registration plate issued for all other trucks and truck tractors shall be attached to the front of the vehicle. All dealers' plates, as provided in § 55-4-221, and those registration plates issued for motorcycles, trailers or semitrailers shall be attached to the rear of the vehicle. So, I figure his truck is >3/4 ton and that's why he's doing it that way? Is there a why other than I can?

Decriminalizing minor theft. That’s honestly the first I’ve heard of this. Brilliant idea, everyone! I can beat that, though. THERE WILL BE A 0% CRIME RATE IF WE DECRIMINALIZE EVERYTHING. This will end well, I’d say.

Like Trump or hate him...can we all at least agree that the Jr's seem like smucks?

Huh...according to a report I'm reading... 35.7% of the passengers were...Canadian.

Anyone want to create a Meme stating that the flight's nickname was the Lucy?

Is it a question of if, or which one?

@Fourtyfive I merged your topic with the original. Didn't think we needed two threads going.

I did read that Iran tipped off Iraq regarding the missiles, and Iraq also tipped us off regarding them. Seems nearly a play out of a Clinton playbook.

Looks like someone had the unfortunate coincidence of a plane crashing. Bets?

Technically, though, aren't these letters only "good" for the person that the letter is written to? (I think that's a trick question). The answer depends on how much lawyer you can afford.

They're...52 cards in a deck. Just saying...

I love scripting things. It’s something probably 90% of people never attempt or even know is possible. But you can automate so many things with a bit of research.

How are you running it? Via task scheduler, via cmd, or clicking the batch file? No issue in adding the following line to the very end/exit of the batch file: exit

I don't know exactly what the operating structure for the "Alarms" directory is, but you may or may not consider implementing a variable = today, mkdir variable, and then copy everything into that new directory. Your backups directory would have a long list of directories by date and then copies within for all the files. This would only be really beneficial if the files change sometimes and if you may want to go back to look at previous versions. If the files are large, though, it'll compound linearly everyday. I'm more experienced in Bash scripting than writing batch files on Windows, and even though the concept is the same I wouldn't be the exact person to look at for a Windows 98 environment. I don't know that it would work, but I'd write something like this. https://pastebin.com/z1VQmXXW I'm on a Mac right now with no access to a Windows computer, I wouldn't expect any of that to work properly but I put it together quickly just to give an idea of what could be done. I do have a Windows computer at home and everytime I exit Adobe Lightroom it automatically creates a backup of its database. The backups get stuck in my Dropbox folder. However, the backups do end up taking decent space eventually. My solution? I wrote a batch file to automatically find those backups in that directory older than 14 days and delete them. I threw it in the Startup folder on Windows 10. As such, it automatically purges those backups older than 14 days when I boot the computer. Again, just ideas of what can be done.

I imagine it'd depend on the FFL. Some FFL's will accept a firearm (shipped to them) and then transfer it to someone. In that scenario, he could have shipped it to an FFL near you. I'd honestly find the closest FFL that you like, call them and simply tell them you'd like to have a firearm transferred from your FIL out of state.

I'd say a $30.00 transfer is cheaper than a lawyer.

Yeah, two thoughts. The chances of it causing an issue? Not very high. The cost of going to a local (in TN) FFL and performing a transfer? $30.00 +=$10.00. The peace of mind knowing that there is no legal issue at all? 100% priceless.

I saw an ad today on Instagram for an outdoor company. It's like a short video clip. All I could think...is... Do they breathe?

I'm not entirely sure whether "Rosesimin" was illegitimate. Oftentimes you will see a label generated but it make take days for the pickup or drop-off to occur. I haven't researched them to see whether other people have had issues or not, but keep in mind that PSA (Palmetto State Armory) itself has been the subject of such discussions simply because they took weeks to ship in a world that expects Prime equivalent shipping on everything. Regarding @flyingtiger1825@gmail.com, at first I wondered if it/he may be an attempt to legitimize Rosesimin (as in, Rosesimin searches the internet for topics such as this thread and posts on them in an attempt to make it seem like Rosesimin is legitimate). But it doesn't make sense in any form, and is not even specific to the thread itself. I wanna know how @flyingtiger1825@gmail.com knows @TerryW's pants are waterproof in the first place.

Regarding stocks, does anyone use Robinhood? Sign up using this link and you'll get a free stock, as will I. A bit of shameless self promotion, sure. But I enjoy using them because they is no selling/buying fees. You can buy a single stock of Ford and not have to shell out ~$5.00 to make the trade. They make their money by selling a monthly subscription service. To be completely transparent, I've been using Robinhood for years without issue. It isn't the most advanced platform out there, but suffices to me perfectly for simply buying, holding, and then later selling.
