All The Cool Kids Are Doing It

I was looking to get a suppressor for my SCAR, or at least explore what is needed to do so, and found the following within Michigan's firearm laws (of course, this was released BEFORE it was legal to own a suppressor):

Sec. 224. (1) A person shall not manufacture, sell, offer for sale, or possess any of the following:
(a) A machine gun or firearm that shoots or is designed to shoot automatically more than 1 shot without
manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger.
(b) A muffler or silencer.
(c) A bomb or bombshell.
(d) A blackjack, slungshot, billy, metallic knuckles, sand club, sand bag, or bludgeon.


And I'm cutting it off there. Because I need to know what all this cool shit is. Blackjack? Sand club? What the fuck is that? I don't know, but I WANT IT.

Heavy Machining - By Bay Cast Technologies

If a 10 foot diameter part is spinning at 19 RPM and you're cutting the outside edge, then you're cutting about 120 linear inches of metal per second. Coupled with the right feed rate and depth of cut, you've got these bullets rocketing off the part. The cross-section of the chip is approximately 1/2" x 3/16"... so we cut about 1.5 lb per second. Holy shit.

A 1/2" x 1/2" notch get cut off the entire rim of a 10' diameter part in about 5 seconds. We had to shut it down because it was too dangerous.... lol.

Look who I found

Skyrim: First Impressions?

That intro was fucking great. I let the dragon kill me so I could play it again. An execution is way better than the Census and Excise Office or prison. They really fixed faces this time, not every character looks grotesque anymore.

This graphics card is excellent, a GTX 560 Ti. I turned every god damned setting to ultra and it powers through a forest without a noticeable drop in the framerate.

Steam fucking blows. I pop in the disc and Steam comes up and proceeds to attempt to download all 5 and some odd gigabytes of the game at 40 kb/s. Luckily I managed to find a workaround 5 minutes into the 23 day download estimate. Then it had to download 200 MB patch? right after install. Steam fucking blows.

OH MY GOD ITS THE END OF THE WORLD

I completely forgot about this game until yesterday. I just ordered a new graphics card and 4GB more memory along with a preorder. Are you guys going PC or 360 for this one?
