Server Move and Outage Reports / Re: So I'm going to guess that .Net is no more. It was a slow death.

« Last post by GOEX FFF on Today at 12:30:35 PM »

I'm guessing if will be done soon, there will be a few hiccups, it will look and feel different, and everyone will be complaining about how much they hate it. Older members will cry about the good old days and new members will think is the best firearm website EVER. OT will have a new feature that roots out and deletes douchebags and bots.

I guess I could be considered an older member. I lurked from about 2005 and then joined .net in 2007.

I won't bitch about the way it may look different or anything else. Just as long as the site works again, it's easy to adapt to tere hanges.

Off Topic Discussion / Re: Ford Lost $130,000 on Every EV It Sold in the First Quarter

I take it that they either view it as "go woke, go broke" or they are using consumers as the guinea pigs to work out the kinks.

Either way, it's a demonstration that the production/sales side isn't ready for prime time when it comes to EV's.  That's without noting the sheer lack of infrastructure to support them.  (I can't think of a single, publicly available charging station in this neck of the woods.)

I guess I'd have to assume they just figure it as the cost of transition. . . The Hidden Costs of Transitioning to Electric Vehicles - https://www.government-fleet.com/10210702/the-hidden-costs-of-transitioning-to-electric-vehicles

Lack of demand is also a huge issue. Real men don't want stupid e-cars.

Same on my IPhone.

So now I compose the post in IPhone notes first.
I then copy it and paste into my new post. It will do it again after saving but then I edit the incomplete post by hitting the edit icon on the lower right (not the modify button on top) and then paste it back and hit save. That always works for me.

It sucks

Handguns / Re: 1911 is better than Glock

« Last post by OlderThanDirt on Today at 11:39:29 AM »

Just recently Glock was announced an official gun of LGBT community, every proud owner of Glock is part of proud community automatically.

Does this mean I'm supposed to rub my pecker on a Glock or stick it where the sun doesn't shine? Do Glocks now automatically acquire a target is it's a cis white male? I'm not sure what the new procedure entails.
