I'm not confused at all. 3 out of the top 5 states for homocides are the most gun restricted in the nation. Relaxing gun laws correlates directly with reductions in violent crime. As for the other two states they have very strong stand your ground laws and there are 1.5-3 million self-defense instances using firearms per year and those homocides are one of the best arguments for the right to bear arms

Nice try to deflect and redirect back on me but this is slashdot. "Oh, you shouldn't take my crazy paranoid shit so literally, you must be dumb" is a wild take at a place where people post far more extreme shit daily, mean it all, and get modded up for it.

If you're being sarcastic or don't mean it you do need to say so but in this case given your post history, I think you did mean it and now try to flip the script when you realized how nutty it looked after getting called out. I may be stupid and I may be an asshole but I'm not a delusional paranoid stupid asshole. I passed basic reading comprehension class in third grade. That's sufficient for a dead site like this where the same crap gets posted every day by the same people and gets modded up by other crazy people.

Tx kbye!

That was some weird ass drug induced crazy af shit!

Where can I get some of that?

But can your guy get me some that doesn't make me wildly paranoid? It's not a good look.

Tx kbye!

I was exactly in the field supporting researching working on software to do layouts. If you worked in the field doing layouts it's near 100% likely you used that software in at least one job.

Little bro got all mad because jacks got called out for making obviously stupid claim that field has existed since the dawn of time and has seen no original work.

Don't be mad, little bro. Be less stupid than me. It's not hard. I'm really stupid, but you still failed the test.

Hey that's a cool story, little bro. PCB layout was created by God on day 8? It's always been here. No one has ever done anything original in that field.

Weird, how yeah, I was in that field for a few years, so it's super weird how I was supporting all these folks doing research in the field. If only they'd talked to you they could've learned it was all a lie. It's always been there. No one has ever done anything original in the field. It's always existed.

I didn't learn a thing from you. I already knew your ego was bigger than your brains and knowledge base. Status quo maintained, little bro.

So no one ever has designed anything original? It was all always here?

Cool story, bro.

Networks? There are no intervening networks.

The high speed traders are directly physically connected to the exchanges sitting on the same data centers in cages as close as physically possible.

None of those trades goes over anything like public net, vpn, or whatever you're thinking of.

Completely private direct physical links on site.

To be fair, it hasn't done it in a while after a few firmware updates. Probably too many complaints. It now bee lines across the open floor until it finds a wall, whereas before it would get almost halfway, get drunk and wander around, then I could see on the live map it suddenly decided it was inside the semi-nearby couch and from there it was hopeless until rescued and reset by human hands.

It still gets stuck in tight places. For some areas like the bed, I turned it 90 degrees and pushed it against the wall. For others like the gym I just marked as a no-go zone. I moved my wife's office boxes around so it can't get stuck in her storage area.

Not ideal but it still does well enough on the 90% of the house it can reach. We have solid tile and wood floors, very few rugs or carpets anywhere so surface type isn't an issue but it will get baffled by a small bathroom rug. It's too thick to climb up but the robot is strong enough to push the rug around so it keeps recalculating the path and area shape. It can spend 10-15 minutes working its way out of a bathroom rug so I move those beforehand. The gym baffled it completely. It would drain battery to zero in there. Couldn't even find its way back to dock after almost an hour of bumping into everything at random.

  I know my review sounds horrible but it really isn't as long as one accepts the innate limits of such a device. But customer support really was horrible. Absolutely no excuse for them. I wasn't looking for a refund or freebie of any sort. Just help on the "getting lost in large spaces" problem. They started badly and got worse from there. CS is why I'd never buy again, not the device's limitations and issues.

It's an S7 Max V.

The get lost problem happens when it crosses a large open space with no objects to check against. It can't cross featureless large spaces without often getting confused. Typically it will suddenly decide it is 10 feet over, often inside a couch or other furniture. This is a known problem on the forums and from support.

It also gets stuck in tight spaces where there's a single narrow path in and it would have to turn around to follow that same narrow path out. For example in one of the guest bedrooms the bed was about 18 inches from the wall. In theory it can fit down that path, turn around and come back but it can't. My wife's office has a small maze of cartons. Can't do that. Gym has random weights and equipment. Can't do that. One of the back doors has some tight spaces from furniture and other stuff. Sometimes can't do that but usually makes it.

But I do give it credit for being 99% successful going under the dining room table with 8 chairs plus table legs making an ugly and randomly arranged maze. It only got stuck there once. And it was kind of funny and not it's fault that it bumped into an oven grill that was temporarily precariously leaning against a kitchen wall which fell on it and it panicked and shut itself down.

It has a mop function but it isn't really mopping. I think of it as "making the floor slightly damp". It's better than nothing but I have done countless hours of mopping in my life and that's not mopping.

Overall, I am happy enough with it but support does suck and I imagine there will be better or at least as good for much less from other companies when it's dead.

If I knew then what I know now I would've got a much cheaper no name model, saved a bunch of money, had something almost as good and been less annoyed with the failures.

I had one of the earliest roombas back in the day. It ran around all day when no one was home, picked up a ton of dog fluff, but the random walk was terribly stupid. It was ok for its era. I'm shocked to read the latest models still do that. That's pretty crazy and explains why they'd lose buyers and go out of business.

I have a Roborock. It mostly does what it's supposed to although map editing sucks and it often gets lost and can't properly reset its position. It needs to be rescued pretty often which is a major fail.

The super fail is Roborock customer support. Always rude, always useless, sometimes actively hostile as if they find customers needing help annoying. Some of the worst CS I've ever experienced.

When it eventually dies I don't know yet what I'll replace it with but it won't be another Roborock.

Does that also apply to Biden shutting down the Canadian oil pipeline and freezing out new drilling and exploration and cancelling existing already issued permits?

Typical 2025 slashdot posting template:
Trump does $thing: worst thing ever, clear constitutional violation! Corruption! Orange Man Bad! +5 informative!
Biden does exact same $thing: brilliant! Saving the world one step at a time! Good honest Joe! +5 informative!

Can't make this shit up. No point in making a joke, the fruit isn't hanging low, it's on the ground.
