"Defending your own life when in immediate danger to me is a basic right of each person. " Lemon Drop 11/17/2023 03:10 pm

Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008) Private citizens have the right under the Second Amendment to possess an ordinary type of weapon and use it for lawful, historically established situations such as self-defense in a home, even when there is no relationship to a local militia.

"The conclusion is thus inescapable that the history, concept, and wording of the second amendment to the Constitution of the United States, as well as its interpretation by every major commentator and court in the first half-century after its ratification, indicates that what is protected is an individual right of a private citizen to own and carry firearms in a peaceful manner." Right to Keep and Bear Arms: Report of the Subcommittee on the Constitution of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-seventh Congress, Second Session. U.S. Government Printing Office. 1982. Digitized September 30, 2008.

From the NYSRPA v Bruen "Today, we decline to adopt that two-part approach. . . . Despite the popularity of this two-step approach, it is one step too many. Step one of the predominant framework is broadly consistent with Heller, which demands a test rooted in the Second Amendment's text, as informed by history."

I've got a 14TB external USB drive that I don't need and could sell you. Bought it as a spare, but ended up not needing it. PM me if you'd like me to give you details and a price.

I bought a bunch of 10tb versions of that and shucked them for my DAS. B/c of course external drives are cheaper than internal drives.

B&H has quite the range of WD externals.

[www.bhphotovideo.com]

Depending on the tax rate of your delivery point, there is B&H's Payboo, a 'tax free' price option if you qualify for their store card.

Buy something on the card and the price includes an instant rebate of the state sales tax of one's given shipping address.

I don't know if this works for you, but I'll be ordering one in a few.

The prices compete with AMZ often and apparently at the moment, though there are some oddities as some sizes might be just $20 more than the next smaller size.

Or like their 14T and 16T both being $256.

Saving the tax, at 10.75%, helps take a tiny bit of sting out of the price.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

Damn. A 20TB drive for less than I paid for a 1GB external hard drive about 25 years ago. That's 20,000 times the capacity...

....

That 20TB drive is $30 more at Amazon and $40 more at B&H. I guess it really was on sale!

I really need to stop coming here. I wasn't in the market for a new hard drive, but I rationalized the purchase by thinking about the number of photos I could consolidate on one drive. And, using the my "Payboo" account, I was able to save another $20 in taxes, so why not? surrender
