The picture of the still half-destroyed white house will do wonders in the upcoming partial election.

I'm happy to see it will be primarily single player. I would absolutely hate to see a production line I spent hours building and fine tuning being constantly under attack.
I like to play my RTS games like a mix of Tower Defence and Sim City, ending with a complete easy mode power fantasy steamroll of the enemy base. That doesn't work well with PvP multilayer.
Cool. Now I can not watch them by choice.

I believe concealability is by far the main reason and the rest is just a side effect. It is born and a trope of desperate necessity. Someone needs a concealable weapon, likely for nefarious reasons, but all they have is their grandpa's shotgun and no money to buy a handgun, or no willingness to go through the background check process to get one. The traceability of a handgun purchase depending on which state you're in could also be a factor.
Dramatically shortening the barrel of a firearm will reduce its power as the cartridge it uses was generally not optimized for a barrel this short. Also, if removing the choke was the goal then only the first 2-3 inches of the barrel would need to be trimmed off. In terms of usability, you generally end up with a weapon that is worse than a purpose-built handgun if you modify a long gun, but it will still do the job if all you want to do is rob a store or assassinate someone from point blank. You'd be in a severe disadvantage in anything ranged or in an actual gunfight however. Needless to say, it also completely ruins a hunting shotgun and makes it permanently near useless at it.
45 mph in that thing sounds terrifying.

And then they have the nerve to work at killing the F-Droid project because of "security" reasons.

I wouldn't be that bad if it finally got developers to optimize their darn apps for once so they make more efficient use of the limited hardware.
Macrodroid has been a favourite of mine for automating things on my phone. This is no longer the case.
It has been silently updated at some point to become a data mining and leaking nightmare. At the time of writing these lines, this app contains 30 trackers from various third party telemetry services according to the latest Exodus report. This is an extremely high number of trackers and there definitely weren’t that many a few years back. Even most junk free mobile games can’t manage to contain this many. It appears that the owner of the app has sold out and turned it into spyware to sell your data to as many companies as possible.
This is particularly worrying considering the level of access and permissions the app requires to function. If you are using the app still, I’m urging you to reconsider.
Spread the word.
