Neo Libertarians. As long as its a private company with all their biometrics, they’re fine with it
Ok, how about no bullet vending machines because that’s obviously dystopian and if you desperately need bullets and can’t wait to get to a gun shop you have bigger issues
Can’t wait for single use, plastic, vending machine guns ala Cyberpunk 2077.
Does it print ir inject them itself to replenish its own stock?
Experts find that water is wet.
Why does a vending machine even have AI in the first place?
Because it is currently the most advanced way to pretend you are doing age verification when really you aren’t that is available on the market.
How about this: scan your state issued ID. My license has a barcode, and bars already scan it, so it’s a solved problem, no AI needed. The process should essentially be:
- scan license
- snap picture of face
- send to police for lookup - needed to verify you’re not a felon or whatever, there’s more to it than just age verification
- accept or reject transaction
The only AI that needs to exist would be at the local precinct, and used for related ID verification checks.
Or how about this, instead of all this BS, put the vending machine in the store and have a clerk check your ID like they normally would.
But that is boring, that might actually solve the problem and doesn’t have any hype keywords to get anyone to overvalue your company and buy it.
That is clearly an invasion of privacy and a my # amendment rights /s
I dont understand 3. That’s AI or you’re waiting 6 months before 4
Things like this are literally just so that there is a test case to make it up to the Supreme Court. They do something ridiculous that obviously violates the intent of the law but mostly stays inside the letter of the law, in hopes that the Supreme Court will take it up and overturn the law. So, yes, the fact that the vending machine can technically sell bullets to minors is a feature, not a bug. Why is their endgame getting rid of age restrictions for firearms and ammunition? You’d have to ask the death cult themselves about that one.
Because AI is racist and the US never developed gun laws until a bunch of black folks in California and decided to use their rights
“It is easy for an underaged purchaser to go online and click they are of legal age, purchase ammunition, and have it shipped to their house,” added Magers
WTF America, do amo marketplaces really have the same security standards as p**nhub ?
Don’t be silly. Porn sites could permanently scar kids for life when they see a nipple, obviously they need much better protection than something benign like shipping explosives to their house /s
Don’t you need to provide an ID to verify your age for porn in some states?
Yup, in my state (Utah), there’s no required legal process to carry a firearm concealed, and you can buy a firearm w/o any required checks from a private seller (not ammo though), but you need to prove your age to access porn. That seems a little… odd.
About to be all states, under his eye.
WTF America, do amo marketplaces really have the same security standards as pornhub ?
FTFY
vending machine that sells bullets
Sometimes I truly do love the absurdity of my country
All you need is a frequency modulator and to send four pulses of a specific amplitude at the right time in sequence, and then all the bullet costs are discounted.
Actual ammo vending machines. That can be tampered with. Great.
Could we not Torment Nexus the rest of Bioshock, please?
From what i can see here, the USA are currently socially regressing from Bioshock 1 to Bioshock Infinite.
Remember when RoboCop dispensed bullets to anyone that did not show ID?
Bullet vending machines? Just in case you find yourself running out of bullets while out and about in the city? “Damn it. They’re out of Snickers bars so I guess I’ll just settle for some 9mm.”
'murica, fuck yeah!
The morning riot used 2 more mags than usual.
An entire country of fucking cowards 😂
Hey hey hey, half cowards.
Same reason as any other vending machine, impulse buys.
Ammo should never be an impulse buy, and I say this as a strong proponent of the 2A.
Want or need?
Always the question.
“Well hell, I should try something different in that gun that doesn’t work quite right. Wonder if this works better?”
There. Impulse buy.
For when you run out of 5.56 before third period biology
Your going to have to disect the lab rat live, fresh from the dumpster.
TBH shooting a rat with 5.56x45 would leave you with more cleaning up than dissectable rat.
The world would be better off if certain people ate a bullet. But those people usually are not in the vending machine target demographic.
Humanity is fucked when you can buy death from a vending machine. Where are the vodka vending machines? No? Just things to kill people.
Cigarette vending machines used to be quite common. Even today, there are some alcohol vending machines in controlled areas (some fancy hotels have 24/7 vending machines stocked with a particular brand of champagne bottles).
A hotel I stayed at recently had a vending machine filled with beer and wine. It just worked with the honour system, no ID check or whatever.
It was fairly nicely priced too, especially for a hotel.
Vodka kills a lot of people
Did you know you can just buy a vending machine and put whatever you want in it? Vodka, blunts, heroin, Irn Bru, anything.
Where can I buy a vending machine? Is there a vending machine selling vending machines I can visit?
Not quite, but vending.com has vending machines. I think they run a few thousand each, so they’re not exactly cheap…
Humanity or America?
America or USA?
Good point
Humanity. People outside the USA love to copy the USA because they think it’s cool. Yet they copy the uncool things.
But voting machines are safe, right? /s
A society that wants to be a war zone
Any vending machine can be hacked. We used to get free sodas from one twenty years ago.
It’s like society wants to be all the fucking worst parts of Mega Man Battle Network
