If battery technology improves, it'll become viable.
Imagine they optimize a battery 100x. Which isn't impossible. Think someday we only had 10MB hard drives.
This could also be used for cars etc. With proper battery technology, there's no limits to what we can achieve.
Air rifles have been around for centuries. Lewis and Clark used one. Very cool technology for it's time.
The next development in rifle technology will come from higher pressured chambers and increased metallurgy. It'll allow the use of super high powered propellants, decreasing amount of weight carried significantly in powder and brass. Imagine a .22 LR rifle with the power of a .223. Or a .308 style rifle with the power of a .50 cal. -

Originally posted by stl1 A Google sampling of black vs. white pay:
In 1979, the average black man in America earned about 80% of the average white man ($15 versus $19 per hour). By 2016, this gap had grown such that the average black male worker earned just 70% of the hourly wage of the average white male worker. The data for women (panel D) show a similar pattern.
Disappointing Facts about the Black-White Wage Gap
Mostly due to a handful of rich white men, bezos, musk, gates etc. The same ones the feminists aspire to be. They don't aspire to be treated equally to the coal miner. It's not a black vs white issue, it's a rich vs poor. Even if there were no blacks, there'd still be wealth disparity. Take England for example. Some dialects are associated with lower class. -
2020-07-29 at 6:25 AM UTC in Only 99 Days Until Trump Gets Pink SlippedThe election results may not be respected by supporters of either party. Whether it's excluding illegals from the census, or mail in ballots (or lack thereof), no matter the result, half the country will be divided.
Anyways, we'll be patrolling the borders here. Don't even think about heading north when shit hits the fan. -

It's been 60 years since the civil rights era. Most Vietnam refugees have done extremely well since then despite starting with nothing and often suffering as severe "racism" as blacks.

2020-07-24 at 8:15 PM UTC in Technologist: let's have a 'constructive conversation about systemic racism'Yes the "invisible racist" is as ludicrous as the "invisible Je w controlling the world" or the "invisible man in the sky".

2020-07-24 at 6:54 PM UTC in Technologist: let's have a 'constructive conversation about systemic racism'Individuals are either successful or unsuccessful. At this point in time of society, if you're unsuccessful, you're doing something wrong, regardless of your skin tone. There's a big fuss over nothing. It's really not that difficult to see. It's not up to whitey to help darkey make good choices in their lives. Many lower-tier immigrant groups have successfully done it. The opportunities are there.

2020-07-24 at 6:14 AM UTC in Technologist: let's have a 'constructive conversation about systemic racism'Systematic racism ended in the 60's with the repeal of segregation etc. It doesn't exist anymore.
Stay in school. Work hard. Don't do drugs. Wake up early. Show me a black man that does that, and I'll show you a successful black man. -

Originally posted by vindicktive vinny snipers, artilleries and mortars only started to rain down after people began to starve.
people just dont wake up one day and decided to hmmmm, maybe ill just artillery a bunch of people downtown.
If they fear the other guy will do the same, sure. Just like USA should've attacked Japan as soon as the oil blockade took effect. Instead they starved Japan and got "surprise attacked". -
2020-07-23 at 2:15 AM UTC in Technologist: let's have a 'constructive conversation about systemic racism'Liberals are attempting to basically convince you of the invisible man in the sky named 'racism'. If it's not part of the laws of the system, or the system goes as far as ours has to implement anti-discrimination laws, of course there's no systematic racism. The system is overwhelmingly anti-racist (only anti-white, no Asian student quotas).
