Not even that. - You forgot about the ribbon-switch. - You Duct-tape the ribbon, and then you only need the finger for a second. (1/3 of a second, actually)
I'll just have to ""Friend"" you instead...
Ever since they used it on the intro to The Lone Ranger, as the hero sped across the countryside on horseback, that song has run through my head whenever I'm in a hurry.
Although, I could probably use more bikini-babes in my life.... I'll have to try THAT one next time...
Allow me to demonstrate
It's a small world after all, It's a small world after all, It's a small world after all, It's a small, small word.
It a world of laughter, a world of tears. It's a world of hope and a world of fears. There's so much that we share, and it's time we're aware. It's a small world after all.
It's a small world after all, It's a small world after all, It's a small world after all, It's a small, small word.
Now.... You're Welcome.
Dywolf,
I am aware we agree about the author of TFA.

As of the idiot at WIRED... Look a the name... How can you say that he doesn't have an axe to grind? It's probably a pseudonym for that express purpose!

Recent history shows he doesn't have to resign early to affect his succession. If you were watching in 2005 you would know that Pope John Paul II did exactly that and basically put him (the current Pope) into office as his hand-picked successor.

AND, leaders (religious, political or even corporate) selecting others who are like minded is called "Organizational Consistency" and is not a ""bad word"" in most places.
It took 6 impacts before the material failed- Just like a walnut that you hit with a hammer to get at the food; the first hit might be absorbed, but even if you're not swinging brittle shell material will develop cracks and eventually the shell will collapse into tiny bits allowing you access to what's inside.
In this case, "what's inside" are the internal parts of the weapon, and having access to them is not what you want.
My IT industry friends are the most well armed guys I know.
All of the high-stress areas are also in the UPPER receiver. If the upper receiver, chamber, barrel, bolt-face, cam-lock, and main spring are all from "typically manufactured" steel and aluminum parts, then using this weapon is not any more dangerous than firing a mass-produced AR. - Just less reliable.
It's a shame that NOBODY in those companies has figured that out yet.
We've known for 40 years what comes from Mars and shakes the earth...
It's the "Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator".
Marvin has been searching for YEARS for that darned thing; ever since Buggs was able to get it away from him. Let's hope that he's not looking at the news today.
That said... It's not a relevant issue here. Manning is not a war hero. He is a traitor.
Ever since then, I was wondering why Japanese scientist weren't worried about Fuji. - Now I know: They ARE worried.
