There is also an MG 18, the ZB you mentioned may be a Bren gun, and there is a Japanese type 97 machine gun.

Based on the picture, he was definitely a collector. There are multiple collector's items in there. That said, he could be a black market dealer who also purchased collector's items for himself when he came across them. Also, does California not have more restrictive laws regarding Suppressors, short barreled rifles, and fully automatic machine guns? I thought they had laws regulating magazines to 10 rounds?

Article confirms that machine guns are illegal in California. He had multiple World War 1 era machine guns and other pieces that could be in museums. This guy should have just moved to a neighboring state. He had the money.

I just imagined a caretaker/servant seeing a tired Putin late at night, asking him if he was sleepy and offering him tea. Putin accepts tea and the servant returns to the kitchen to prepare the tea. The servant is immediately thrown out the kitchen window.

Could be 2 people shooting at each other. Could be 1 shooter and 1 "good guy" with a gun trying to stop the shooter. Could be 2 shooter working together. Could be loud sound mistaken for gunfire and then 2 "good guys" try to save the day and shoot at each other.

In my opinion these are in order of most to least likely.

The man said he had cared for a stray cat at his home, the bulletin said.

The cat tested negative for the virus but it “regularly hunted small mammals and frequently scratched the patient,” the bulletin said.

If a cat was frequently scratching me, I might just leave it alone. Getting scratched by stray cats is a bad idea.

Gotcha. I haven't seen the actual video.

I know with the Apple headset you can be in a "world" where you can still see you surroundings. Its a video feed of your surroundings so obviously you would not want to drive while doing it and I don't know the range. But maybe what they were trying to do is have a small screen with a video or to be charitable, Apple maps open in a corner of their vision while still having a full view of the world.

Again, I'm not saying I trust the technology for this purpose but having your GPS directions, semi transparent on a HUD would be really cool.

No you make videos of Trump saying he wants open boarders. Or that we need to raise taxes. Or police need to be de-funded. Things that are awful to his voters.

Now I'm conflicted. I want the 49ers to win for the Purdy story and to not have the Chiefs be champions yet again. Now I want the Chiefs to win to piss off the right wing crazies.
