One angry day I removed the screaming from my electric kettle, my coffee grinder, and my espresso machine; all of which beeped one to three times every time a button was pressed, power was turned on, or they finished a task. It was a hellish robot symphony every morning before that.

Anyone can do it. Once you’ve learned to spot a piezoelectric buzzer, ripping them out of everything you own is just a matter of how willing you are to take the case off of your electronic devices and find the circuit board. You just grip the buzzer with pliers and pull at it gently. Most of the time the top of the buzzer will have a plastic cap that detaches and there will be a thin metal film you can just remove. But some buzzer units are fully sealed - just rip the whole damned thing off the board, it won’t hurt anything else.

edit: Here’s a video of someone else doing it. Seriously, have a blast. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6fdbq3

Yes, but isn’t it so much more refreshing to create a fictional everyman that commits murder while wearing a uniform? This is in the same class as a Stonetoss comic.

The biggest context clue for you should be the US army uniform and 3rd Infantry Division patch on the helmet. This is probably commentary on two decades of deployments in Afghanistan.

The things these people are saying aren’t even remotely as rude as the sort of things Charlie would say at an average event. Kirk suggested gay people be stoned to death. He said George Floyd had it coming. He blamed rape victims for dressing poorly. But those are all just words.

So are you suggesting these people are murderers just because they are sharing some uncomfortable words? Curious.
