truffles: alrighty mate, just sips of tea
nubbins`: those are less than a buck each in quantity
asciilifeform: ~1 tall
nubbins`: ah, smaller than a business card
mircea_popescu: which "weren't there" when we begun taking them out
mircea_popescu: for the benefit of "i can write a website too!" crowd : this is the result of removing about 14 different bias sources
nubbins`: are the final dimensions known?
pankkake: too good to be true, scam
mircea_popescu: it's definitely up there.
mircea_popescu: i daresay this is the best 2,5mb random sample i ever did see
mircea_popescu: so in the most recent rng tests for the cardano we now see Entropy = 7.999926 bits per byte.
the20year: except in vietnam with the US army
the20year: Yeah, that's been the US tradition for a while though
asciilifeform: in that most bayonet charges did not end with a mass perforation, but with one side fleeing
mircea_popescu: (which is why the us army has been evolving towards smaller and smaller units as the quality of recruits sunk)
asciilifeform: if i recall, bayonet is the original 'MAD' weapon
mircea_popescu: an army however is about the weakest not the strongest link
mircea_popescu: no argument there.
the20year: Eh, i'd bet money there are plenty that still could use them effectively
nubbins`: point of the day
mircea_popescu: people all over the us train in reading and writing.
the20year: I don't know , when i talked to a guy in 2003-4 about his time in Iraq, he seemed to indicate his unit trained with them. I do believe the marines still train
the20year: Tell that to the scotts
mircea_popescu: the20year and don't know how to use them
ozbot: Jack Churchill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the20year: Thus why police have the 21ft rule
mircea_popescu: course that training is prohibitively expensive
mircea_popescu: a trained man with a sword is a better asset in close quarters than dudes with guns
asciilifeform: for further anachronism value: chariots (albeit with maxim) saw plentiful action in the russian civil war.
the20year: Rourkes drift comes pretty close to that
asciilifeform: there are persistent rumours of a Polish ww2 lance charge against a tank column.
the20year: Or italian cavalry in ww2 attacking soviet positions, a bayonette charge in iraq in 2004, the last usage of a sword in combat in vietnam , ect
the20year: Sure, but if you're curious what happens, there's plenty of information out there on when it does ocurr
asciilifeform: maxim against cavalry, 'drone' against rusty truck in afghanistan...
the20year: would have been no different than 1800s, 1700s, 1600s - massed infantry in static lines trying to take positions held by machine guns
the20year: Granted if you want to see what happens when you use line warfar against machine guns, just take a look at ww1
asciilifeform: famous 'before their time' techno masterpiece...
asciilifeform: the one where the air bottle sometimes burst?
the20year: Well, in the 1700s you had the giardoni air rifle which was a rapid fire gun
the20year: Maxim is still being used today
the20year: They were used from the late 1800s through ww2
truffles: imagine if they had those back in the day
ozbot: M1895 Colt-Browning machine gun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the20year: Anything prior to 1899 is legal , granted some states have other rules. Sadly the maxim and potato digger aren't covered
asciilifeform: this legal oddity rings a bell. i once wandered into an antique shop near wash. dc, and they had an Ottoman musket for sale. no paperwork, etc.
the20year: I have a 1895 mauser that's an antique....is an absolutely awesome rifle
ozbot: Antique gun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
asciilifeform: how did it come about that they aren't considered arms?
the20year: Even though they might take modern cartridges
the20year: Same with guns manufactured prior to 1898 that aren't considered firearms anymore
the20year: It's easy to find and date them based on serial numbers, sales price is quite high though, around $2,000 for a tec-9 or 22 that sold for say $150 prior to 1980
asciilifeform: with traceable pedigree, etc.
asciilifeform: i recall reading that they're bought and sold rather like famous paintings.
the20year: Technically, if you can find a open-bolt gun that was made prior to 1980 it's still legal
asciilifeform: right. 'open bolt' schema is easy to manufacture, and for that (among other reasons) is forbidden in the u.s.
the20year: Both at a cost of just a few dollar (equivilent) at the time
the20year: The Sten and PPS-43 were both primarily made by children during ww2, and they are still being used around the world today
asciilifeform: point remains, that the military significance of 3d printer is small, while that of the hand file and forge, remains great.
the20year: Ammo isn't too bad if you want to set up the process ,or just make a muzzleloader
asciilifeform: that was the point
asciilifeform: the gun is the easy part
the20year: If you want to go the firearms route
asciilifeform: the original discussion was, i think, about what could in principle be made with one's own hands, out of commonly-available raw materials
the20year: There's absolutely no reason in worrying about all this theoretical stuff, just buy cheap and stack deep if you live here
the20year: Easy to buy ammo and stock up in the US
