My guess is that they flew a drone around and filmed limbs flailing over a green screen. Edit: looks like a lot more of it than I thought was practical, but you can see them filming limb moments against the sky at the very end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MX5WVRDK63o Edit: it reminded me of this video, which is a lot of more obvious in execution. https://youtu.be/H0Ib9SwC7EI Uthor fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Jul 12, 2015 |

WorldsStrongestNerd posted:From a page back, but every person I've ever talked to who lost a finger or got an end cut off says that they wish they had opted for amputation rather then getting it sewed back on. Apparently even with a clean cut it's nothing but trouble and never heals or feels right again. Or maybe it's lovely doctors around here idk. Both my dad and my older brother lost the tip of their right index finger (to tell the truth I'm kind of worried about my own, gypsy curse style) at different points in their lives and had them re-attached and they were fine. My brother went on to become a very good guitarist. EDIT-The weird thing though, is that the fingernail never grew after that so they both had these weird baby sized fingernails on that finger.

It seems cruel to make the amputee hold his own arm in the machine... surely you could have an orderly or nurse or someone do it.

I wonder if there was a point to this x-ray, or if the intern with the ziplock bag full of arm just took a detour into radiology on the way to the incinerator for shits and giggles.

Knowing medical staff, they had a department wide pool running to guess how many shards that arm had been broken into.

I thought a little bit more about it and came to the conclusion that if somehow there was a ticking time bomb somewhere and this guy had to hack the Gibson to recapture the nuclear football and save the president's kidnapped daughter and this was literally all he had to work with, it would be genius. Somehow though, I don't think any of that was going on.

The switch on Australian outlets is SPST, and only switches the active. Or, rather, only switches what's meant to be active - add one cheapskate who replaces a failed socket on his own to save the call-out fee for a licensed electrician and assembling this contraption becomes quite the crapshoot. Also, AU is 230VAC, 50Hz, US is 110VAC, 60Hz. I really hope the other end of that is running to a switchmode power supply and not an electric razor.

Sometimes one of the living room power sockets will be controlled by a light switch near the door. It was fun times growing up when you'd accidentally plug the Nintendo into that socket then someone comes into the room and flips the wrong switch to turn on the lights and you lose all your game progress.

Laptops were initially designed for businessmen on the go, so 120/220 volt compatibility was an absolute necessity and that has held true for the entire history of the laptop. Buying a laptop power supply that doesn't do 120/220 would be a real treasure hunt, and even the cheapest Chinese knock-off probably does both.

FIRST TIME posted:Sometimes one of the living room power sockets will be controlled by a light switch near the door. Often you end up playing hunt the light as it's in some nonsense spot,- such as having a bathroom with the main switch being in the corridor and any switches in the room itself are only for appliances. A great example I have was a mate's house which was formerly owned and built by an architect. At that owner's insistence he also did his own wiring. Subsequently the entire place is illegal as all appliances run off the mains and the lights run off residual. Another fun side-effect to Aussie DIY is creating carports down the side of the house. They usually end up blocking existing drainage, so the yard floods or they build a port over the above-ground gas main.

You aren't supposed to plug in your nintendo there, that socket is for lamps. So you can turn all your lamps off and on with one switch.

Angela Christine posted:You aren't supposed to plug in your nintendo there, that socket is for lamps. So you can turn all your lamps off and on with one switch. Doesn't mean it wouldn't still happen! I think it might have just been a thing of that era but I seem to remember a lot of parents having a rule about putting the Nintendo away when you weren't using it. So it would just get plugged in wherever was convenient when you took it out to use it. It was also a more common thing to take your system over to a friend's house because not everybody had a system back then. That would also lead to it getting plugged into the switched outlet. Was it a thing for most kids to play video games with the lights off? I remember doing that a lot. That's what made that switch a ticking time bomb because inevitably someone would walk in to turn the lights on and that would be it for the progress you had made in the game.
