This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Humanity is fucked when you can buy death from a vending machine. Where are the vodka vending machines? No? Just things to kill people.
Humanity or America?
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).
But voting machines are safe, right? /s
Actual ammo vending machines. That can be tampered with. Great.
Could we not Torment Nexus the rest of Bioshock, please?
Why in the everliving fuck is that a thing anyone needed? Just go to a gun store and show your ID if needed for fucks sake
We don't need a new way to buy bullets, we certainly don't need a vending machine for them, and if we're getting one anyway it certainly doesn't need AI, who the fuck dreamt this up and thought it was a good idea??
Amoral greedy hateful conservatives.
But I repeat myself.
Why does a vending machine even have AI in the first place?
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 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.
Bullet vending machines? Just in case you find yourself running low on 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."
The world would be better off if certain people ate a bullet. But those people usually are not in the vending machine target demographic.
'murica, fuck yeah!
An entire country of fucking cowards 😂
For when you run out of 5.56 before third period biology
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.
"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 ?
WTF America, do amo marketplaces really have the same security standards as pornhub ?
FTFY
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?
About to be all states, under his eye.
I mean, every vending machine can be hacked. Paywalled, so I can't see if there's something unique about this vending machine, but if it's got any sort of onboard computer (which pretty much every vending machine does), then it can be accessed, and it can be bypassed.
These are supposed to have AI facial recognition for matching to government issued IDs, which just sounds like a huge attack surface (or even unintentional bugs).
vending machine that sells bullets
Sometimes I truly do love the absurdity of my country
Does OSM have any bullet vending machines?
Edit it has two:

Thats genuinely amazing. The OSM community doesn't care if what you built is dumb, they just care if it's on the map
Props to them
Experts find that water is wet.
You mean like... buying ammo online?
I guess the local sales organizations couldn't let online stores have take over the entire dystopian market.
