“I’ve got bullets with your name on them! Wait that didn’t come out right…”
Is this a borderlands 3 screenshot? Or 2?
Bullet vending machines? Just in case you find yourself running out of bullets while out and about in the city? “Damn it. They’re out of Snickers bars so I guess I’ll just settle for some 9mm.”
An entire country of fucking cowards 😂
Hey hey hey, half cowards.
For when you run out of 5.56 before third period biology
Your going to have to disect the lab rat live, fresh from the dumpster.
TBH shooting a rat with 5.56x45 would leave you with more cleaning up than dissectable rat.
The world would be better off if certain people ate a bullet. But those people usually are not in the vending machine target demographic.
'murica, fuck yeah!
The morning riot used 2 more mags than usual.
Same reason as any other vending machine, impulse buys.
Ammo should never be an impulse buy, and I say this as a strong proponent of the 2A.
Want or need?
Always the question.
“Well hell, I should try something different in that gun that doesn’t work quite right. Wonder if this works better?”
There. Impulse buy.
Experts find that water is wet.
“It is easy for an underaged purchaser to go online and click they are of legal age, purchase ammunition, and have it shipped to their house,” added Magers
WTF America, do amo marketplaces really have the same security standards as p**nhub ?
Don’t you need to provide an ID to verify your age for porn in some states?
About to be all states, under his eye.
Yup, in my state (Utah), there’s no required legal process to carry a firearm concealed, and you can buy a firearm w/o any required checks from a private seller (not ammo though), but you need to prove your age to access porn. That seems a little… odd.
WTF America, do amo marketplaces really have the same security standards as pornhub ?
FTFY
Don’t be silly. Porn sites could permanently scar kids for life when they see a nipple, obviously they need much better protection than something benign like shipping explosives to their house /s
luckily we have this cybersecurity export to get that info
Ok, how about no bullet vending machines because that’s obviously dystopian and if you desperately need bullets and can’t wait to get to a gun shop you have bigger issues
Can’t wait for single use, plastic, vending machine guns ala Cyberpunk 2077.
Does it print ir inject them itself to replenish its own stock?
But voting machines are safe, right? /s
Won’t anyone think of the gun owners that have social anxiety that can’t bear to look the guy at the gun shop in the eye and don’t have the time to wait for an online order because IVE GOT TO DO IT TONIGHT IF I DON’T DO IT TONIGHT ITS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN
/s
Any vending machine can be hacked. We used to get free sodas from one twenty years ago.
America is the stupidest damn place that has ever existed
To be fair, England also exists
England still claims 10% of American stupidity as debt service.
At least we didn’t even consider bullet vending machines or drive through liquor stores.
I find it far less disturbing.
Yeah looking at the history it’s very problematic, but England has always retained a some sense of… morality. Fuck monarchy and all, but I find it very challenging to imagine the UK going as insane as the US is currently.
Like when you read shit like this, I know who I favour historically:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bamber_Bridge
Hey everyone, lockpickinglawer here. Today I’m going to show you how you can open one ammo vending machine with another ammo vending machine.
Alternate #1: your pickup truck’s steel bumper.
Alternate #2: your cousins Oxy-acc torch
Alternate #3: bricks. Lots of bricks.
That’s more McNally’s style tbh
vending machine that sells bullets
Sometimes I truly do love the absurdity of my country
Why does a vending machine even have AI in the first place?
Because AI is racist and the US never developed gun laws until a bunch of black folks in California and decided to use their rights
Because it is currently the most advanced way to pretend you are doing age verification when really you aren’t that is available on the market.
How about this: scan your state issued ID. My license has a barcode, and bars already scan it, so it’s a solved problem, no AI needed. The process should essentially be:
- scan license
- snap picture of face
- send to police for lookup - needed to verify you’re not a felon or whatever, there’s more to it than just age verification
- accept or reject transaction
The only AI that needs to exist would be at the local precinct, and used for related ID verification checks.
Or how about this, instead of all this BS, put the vending machine in the store and have a clerk check your ID like they normally would.
I dont understand 3. That’s AI or you’re waiting 6 months before 4
That is clearly an invasion of privacy and a my # amendment rights /s
But that is boring, that might actually solve the problem and doesn’t have any hype keywords to get anyone to overvalue your company and buy it.
Things like this are literally just so that there is a test case to make it up to the Supreme Court. They do something ridiculous that obviously violates the intent of the law but mostly stays inside the letter of the law, in hopes that the Supreme Court will take it up and overturn the law. So, yes, the fact that the vending machine can technically sell bullets to minors is a feature, not a bug. Why is their endgame getting rid of age restrictions for firearms and ammunition? You’d have to ask the death cult themselves about that one.
You mean like… buying ammo online?
I guess the local sales organizations couldn’t let online stores have take over the entire dystopian market.
