Have a newbie try and use Linux and they will be ripping out their hair. It is NOT FUN.
That is the biggest bunch of horseshit ever. My 75 year old mother bought a HP laptop at a Black Friday sale. I was running Win10. It ran like shit, to the point it was almost unusable. I persuaded her to let me switch it to Linux. I installed Mint with KDE as the desktop. I didn't hear much more about from her. I wasn't even sure if she still used it. Two years later, she called me because Mint was telling her it needed to upgrade. On my next visit to her place, I did the upgrade. But I first check the system uptime...
642 days
She used it every day. Basic stuff like browsing the web, email, and the occasional document.
So stuff that shit right up your ass so far that it comes out your eyesockets Everything after Win7 has been a fucking shitshow

This idea is only vaguely interesting if there is some sort of way of discovering these mini-sites.
I think they had a name for a site that used to run a service like this... It was called Yahoo.
Then along came their competitors and the advertisers in hordes. And that whole concept became a stinking pile of shit.

It's funny how search engines work. I mean, we came up with them in 1995... And some people haven't gotten the hang of them yet.

No you conspiracy nutter. because the criminals all moved there as a result of this ruling.
You obviously have zero clue regarding the demographics, or real estate market, of Brookline. The criminals that live in Brookline have Harvard MBA's. The street thugs and gangbangers all live in Roxbury, Dorchester, and Southie.

One of the disadvantages of the Gyrojet was that it required a change in the spin rate to account for a change in the angle of fire. Which makes it completely unsuited for a system such as this.

But it looks like all they did was hook up a stockless AR-15 platform rifle to a belt-feed system and hang it under the drone. I think they even left the trigger group intact and have a mechanical arm activating the trigger?
This is a stripped down Ares Shrike. At the very least, It's a Shrike upper receiver, barrel, and rail system. The rail system on this is virtually identical to the one used by Ares Defense.

He told them he was working on a nuclear reactor, had radiation burns and mentioned alpha waves
And this is the point where any reasonably intelligent person would have realized he was full of shit. Alpha waves are brain waves.
Alpha Rays... Now those are bad.
