Related to understanding firearms, "rifles" and hand guns tend to be rifled. Rifling is grooving that runs in a helical pattern down the barrel. When purchasing a firearm, it's important to check the rifling.
First check that the firearm is unloaded. Empty or remove the magazine, cycle the weapon. Next, check again that it's unloaded by looking both down the barrel and into the magazine. Now, shine a light down the barrel and look down it. In the absence of a light, you may be able to reflect light off your thumbnail.
Rifling should look as though it's drawn on with a sharp pencil, and the barrel should look otherwise completely smooth and clean. If the rifling looks like bumpy mountains, then the owner probably used corrosive ammo and didn't clean it enough. It will probably still shoot, but not at all accurately.
Both the rifling and the pin can be used in forensic analysis to match a bullet to a gun. I don't honestly know how accurate this is because a lot of forensic "science" is just made up stuff that relies on the CSI effect and doesn't actually work as advertised.
However, not all firearms are not all rifled. Shotguns are "smoothbore" firearms, meaning they lack rifling. It is not possible to perform forensic analysis of a smoothbore firearm. It *is* possible to check for powder on the hands of someone who has used a firearm within the last few days, but it's not possible to distinguish between firing inside and outside a range.
I've been gathering all kinds of tidbits like this, partially just out of curiosity and partially because I've been wanting to write a story about a revolutionary group fighting a modern authoritarian society. I'm always happy to learn other bits, if anyone has anything else I could throw in my narrative (whenever I finally get back to writing it).

Since announcing our plan to launch Liberty Vans
-- equipped with chaplains, lawyers, veterans, and camera crews
-- to follow ICE raids in real time and expose them to the world,
we’ve seen an outpouring of support from ALL 50 STATES.
People are ready to fight back and shine a light on the Trump administration's abuse of our country.
We need to fund the vans,
the crews, the tech, and the training to hold these agents accountable.
And thanks to…

Humm, some downsides to that new lighting render as well as the upsides. Need to adjust where the spotlights shine slightly for the next one I guess. Comes out overall darker, with less ambient light, some shots here far too dark.

Watched "Convoy" by Sam Peckinpah (1978). What an interesting window into another era. Production-wise it was certainly a feat: dozens of trucks, locations, helicopters, stunts.
Story-wise it's "dudes sticking it to the man". The main character, however, doesn't want to start nor lead a rebellion. But the people following him project their own struggles onto him and are part of the convoy for a variety of reasons. Media tries to shine a light on this. Smart!…

Proposal from the NA61/SHINE Collaboration for update of European Strategy for Particle Physics
Building on the current program's success and driven by new physics challenges, the NA61/SHINE Collaboration proposes to continue measuring hadron production properties in reactions induced by hadron and ion beams after CERN Long Shutdown 3. These measurements are of significant interest to the heavy-ion, cosmic-ray, and neutrino physics communities and will focus on: - Investigating hadron production in the light-ion systems to explore the diagram of high-energy nuclear collisions, and to obta…

I got bored so here's some ideas I had about ways to make non-digital AI models which anyone can try if you're bored enough!
- gear ratios for weights
- pulleys for weights
- probs could get pipe diameter haha
- sunglasses (shine light through and brightest is the result)
And there's one analog one I'm trying myself which I can keep posting on if anyone cares!

AttoSHINE: Generation of continuous-wave terawatt-scale attosecond X-ray pulses at SHINE
Attosecond X-ray pulses are a critical tool for tracking ultrafast electron dynamics in condensed matter, molecular systems, and strongly correlated materials. Recent breakthroughs have pushed X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) into the attosecond domain, significantly surpassing their previous femtosecond capabilities. Building on these advancements, this work investigates the potential of the Shanghai High Repetition Rate XFEL and Extreme Light Facility (SHINE), China's first continuous-wave …
