Yeah, this is it.
And to take a slightly different tack, if the biochemical and electrical activity in your brain were not deterministic, how would you ever know? It’s one thing to believe that you made a decision on your own “Free Will”, but how could you possibly rewind the entire universe (or at least some sufficiently small portion of it), including your brain’s exact atomic state, and re-run the experiment to know for sure? At that point, what would “Free Will” even mean?
Honestly, the only people using these will be the rich wannabe-redneck republicans who like to post their gun collections on instagram. It’s an opportunity to virtue signal your gun fetish and nothing else.
Vending machines are great for when you need a small amount of something on the spur of the moment–but kinda worthless for something like bullets (presumably, if you’re planning ahead to have a gun on you, you would also have thought to stuff a few rounds in your pocket at least) When they start selling actual guns, then I’ll be worried.
