https://nypost.com/2024/07/05/...bama-grocery-stores/ Two grocery stores in Alabama are selling gun ammunition in artificial intelligence-powered “retail kiosks” that scan buyers’ identification cards and faces before spitting out bullets. The refrigerator-sized machines, located at Fresh Value stores in Tuscaloosa and Pell City, use 360-degree facial recognition to verify a customer’s age and ID in order to make it easier for folks to get firearm ammo, AL.com reported. “One of the ways we’re changing the landscape of ammunition sales is to make it more available,” a rep for American Rounds, which operates the machines, said in a promo video — which shows the dispenser serendipitously placed next to a cooler of Bang Energy drinks in the Pell City store.

Glock 7? The thing is made of porcelain and cost more than a month of my salary. I’ll need a Beretta instead. Can I get a free pair of shoes with it? | |||

When I win the lotto I'm putting a well stocked Glock vending machine in the man cave. _______________________________ Do the interns get Glocks? | |||

Ah, this non-story is making the rounds again. Just a lot of outrage porn for the Wine Mommies.

Well, you used to be able to get cigarettes and alcohol out of vending machines. So it does seem like the natural thing to do. | |||

When I was a kid, the local marina had a beer vending machine. It probably didn't use AI to verify the age of buyers. | |||

Pulled from one of the stores. Allegedly, not enough sales. Probably, wine mommies outrage triggered the removal.

Glock 7 costs more than what I make in a month so I won’t be buying one. _____________ | |||

Our frat house converted an old Pepsi vending machine into a beer vending machine. It was a popular move. . | |||

We did the same thing! (1960's). Beer was 20 cents. The Coke machine only displayed 1 bottle at a time. So we just alternated empty coke bottles (with caps put back on to fool the uninformed visitors) with beer bottles. One dime got you an empty coke bottle. Another dime got you a beer. Want a coke? Too bad! | |||

I’ll pass on having myself scanned in order to buy ammo. | |||
