You do what the police do, and provide a proportionate response.

A gun is only to be used if you are in imminent danger of your life. A robbery is arguably not that, unless they’re trying to steal your organs or prostheses.

There’s a reason your average supermarket security guard doesn’t immediately whip out the Mini-Nuke the moment they see a shoplifter.

There’s also something to be said about the place you’re living in, where you’re to be terrified of stabbists and robberers the moment you step out-of-doors. Do you live in a hive of scum and villainy?

Larger than your average claw hammer or ball peen, at least.

Especially when it causes law enforcement to become so paranoid of the citizens they’re ostensibly meant to protect, that a mere hailstone landing on the car roof immediately causes them to believe they’re being fired upon.

That just sounds like a terrible time for everyone involved.

At that point, you’re basically turning the constabulary into soldiers.

Carry a large warhammer, like Thor.

Could they not just break the circuit for the panel, and stop it feeding back into the mains?

Is it not the other way around? The stuff in the square brackets becomes the alt-text.

Ah, that’s unfortunate, but understandable.

Particularly with the modding scene. You can’t exactly do a randomiser with the cartridge.

You can also get rechargeable AA batteries. It might be better, since there isn’t a cable, and you can charge one set of batteries, while using the other in the mouse.
