(Sorry not trying to be a dick just some info)

Drop that taser, they're worthless. The ones the cops use are only effective 60% of the time, and those are the shooty bois with the barbs that aren't legal for civilians in every state (some states OK). The ones most people have that are only effective at contact distance anyway are basically just annoying, it's impossible to get intramuscular incapacitation with them afaik, as that requires appropriate prong spread that is only a thing with the shooty bois (if you're the right distance away to get the spread, and the guy doesn't have a heavy coat which half the time will catch the barbs.) Frankly running, OC, or if the threat is deadly a hammer, would all be better than the taser unless you're fighting a lot of naked wet dudes maybe lol.

The OC spray is great however, get the highest % you legally can in your area and preferably stream over gel. They do go bad, check the dates on it, if no date replace at least every ~2y. I use Pom OC myself, but there's many others.

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
