Not that easy to remove, you think a methhead can muster the concentration to remove the fibers one by one, then pull on the bail?

Gun barrels are mass produced and are all the same… That “science” is a lot like lie detectors, mostly bunk.

“But bullets and cartridge cases that are fired from different guns might have similar markings, especially if the guns were consecutively manufactured. This raises the possibility of a false positive match, which can have serious consequences for the accused.”
That’s double speak for “we manufacture the evidence to fit.”
Do they ever fire from a control group? Show me the “striations” on a dozen guns of the same age and use.

For AI that no one asked for and at best seems to be used to make comical videos of unphysical unrealistic situations that never happened.

It’s an old geezer’s car compared to a stadium super truck, if they were street legal…

Just today for example I called some guy scum and threw a plastic bag in his face because he took his dog to the beach and wouldn’t pick up his shit.
I’m getting there. Interacting with people is exhausting. On public transit it’s just endless annoyances and I feel the snappy bit inside me is getting closer.

You’re not much of an engineer if you can’t see how fallacious your argument is.
Memorizing endless arcane trivia that changes every six months is a parlor trick, not engineering.
The same way memorizing all the SCPI commands of your oscilloscope doesn’t make you an engineer.
- Comment on Crying is a free action 1 month ago:
That isn’t real engineering, sorry.
