If any design is changed as a result of gov regulations I’ll eat my entire dick.
Is this you? Kinda looks like you.
What, exactly, did you expect when you said that? How did you anticipate people responding to the tone you set in your top level comment?
See, that's what we call "moving the goalposts".
And if you think that they EU won't regulate companies and force them to change their business practices in order to do business in the EU, well, you haven't been paying attention.
So, uh, have you heard of a guy named Ralph Nader? He wrote a book called "Unsafe At Any Speed" in the 60s about how auto manufacturers were selling cars that they knew to be dangerous, and how they resisted changing in order to make vehicles safer. It resulted in the US DOT and eventually NTHSA, and a whole bunch of new regulations that auto manufacturers were obligated to comply with.
You also have things like the Consumer Product Safety Commission that can force companies to recall products--at their own expense--to fix products with health and safety defects. The results of recalls can be fines, as well as the product being entirely removed from the market, which can easily end up costing more than has already been spent on tooling and processes.
So, yeah, companies can, and do, change designs as a result of regulations.
Now, how were you planning on eating your entire dick?
I, for one, would like to see single-function, physical switches for everything that isn't specifically infotainment. I want turn signals to be a single switch, and I don't want any other features integrated into that switch, and I want each individual module to be easily replaced.
Well, if your vehicle can't be sold in an entire economic zone because you aren't complying with safety regulations, that's a pretty big incentive to change your design.
Hmmm, good point, maybe we need a Treaty of Versailles for Musk where he agrees to surrender Twitter, SpaceX, and Tesla, along with $500B in capital.
Give Musk time; it took Hitler 30-odd years to go from being a low-level NCO to murdering 6M jews, LGBTQ+ people, people with developmental disabilities, artists, political dissidents, etc. Musk has only really had significant name recognition for a decade or so, so he's still got 20 years to catch up.
...Or maybe they're constitutional violations and we shouldn't do either through legislation or through force of law?
Same principle applies; if you have a sign up warning people that you're armed, that means that there are free guns inside, as long as they wait until you're away or asleep.
It's like, don't put the empty box for the $5000 television set out with your trash, put it out with someone else's trash, so that people don't know you just bought a brand new expensive piece of electronics.
DO NOT put gun signs/stickers up. It's an ongoing joke that a Glock sticker on a truck means "free gun inside".
Sure, absolutely. That's also why you see "luxury" developments popping up everywhere; they can make cosmetically nicer houses that have a higher profit margin, while not spending significantly more than a more modest house.
But, again, this is why you need zoning to restrict sprawl.
Couple pedantic points:
You can shoot 10mm with one hand, but you should be shooting pistols with both hands regardless of the power, because it's generally less stable to shoot one-handed. (Olympic shooting is one of the few disciplines that still uses single handed shooting.)
10mm was designed as a cartridge that would have similar performance to a .357 Magnum, but for an autoloading pistol so that you could reload faster and have higher magazine capacity. Typical 10mm loads outperform typical .357 Mag loads.
There's a pretty significant difference in .40S&W v. 9mm Luger; if you look at range ammo, 9mm 115gr will run at about 360 ft-lbs, and .40 S&W 165gr will run at about 470 ft-lbs. OTOH, a 10mm 180gr will run at around 710 ft-lbs. While the 1986 Miami shootout led the FBI to believe that they needed more stopping power than a 9mm, the all branches of the US Military still use 9mm, and most police forces have moved back to 9mm after using .40 S&W for a number of years.
