Yeah, but the seal isn't working as intended. So get that poo poo fixed under warranty.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:Yep, the ol' jump over the car stunt. Speaking of jumping over cars, there was a dude on a a huge German live TV show about dares/bets that was due to set a record for most cars somersaulted on risers in 3 minutes or something, while the cars got increasingly larger. The cars were a Smart, a Mini, a Ford Focus, an Audi A8, and a BMW X3. At this point, it would be worth mentioning that the contestant, Samuel Koch, had initially pitched jumping over a rolling shopping cart, a dude on a bike or something, and finally a Smart car. However, due to the way that the show's editors run their operation, different kinds of bets and their variations are pitched to them in portfolios, and they have the final say. The stunt agency of Koch told the show to shove it up their rear end when they suggested "How about he jumps over ten cars that continuously get larger?", but Koch was baited into satisfying their dumb demands. Even when they came up with car suggestions like the Audi Q7 (because Audi was the vehicle sponsor of the show), he didn't tell them to gently caress off like he should have, but tried to accommodate them. His preferred requirements were poo poo like hatchbacks, possibly an Audi A3, due to the way he needed to land, so naturally, they went with an Audi A8, the loving longest car they could possibly find. They didn't just go with the longest car they could find, which would have been the old A8 variant, but went with the longest derivative of the series, the only recently introduced A8, which was yet another 8 inches longer. But hey, gotta cradle some balls to make it, right? His first jump was over a Smart and successful, the second jump over a Mini was aborted. Third jump over a Ford Focus (?) almost went sour but he still made it. The fourth car was the aforementioned Audi A8. Driven by his father, no less. Behold. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gv06cMww1Ls&t=317s Dude ended up quadriplegic. Schadenfreude in this case is that the show host quit the following year, and the most successful German TV show in history tanked and got canceled within the next 3 years, so at least the producers' greed wasn't rewarded. They did, however, manage to absolve themselves of all guilt, commissioning accident investigations that said "Oh, dude, it was totally the guy's fault, he jumped off wonkily, brah. You guys bugging him to jump over the longest loving luxury sedan on the market had nothing to do with it."

Inescapable Duck posted:I'm pretty sure a good reason those would be made mandatory is to force truck companies to stop exploiting the drivers so hard and making them endanger themselves and everyone else on the road or be fired and replaced with someone who will. Last night I drove past a semi parked on the highway that looked like it was getting a welding job on it's tires. Got closer and nope. The right rear cab tires were on fire. Amazing sparking fire. Later found out e-logs caused the fire because the truck driver drove 3 inches too far. Also, elogs then raped the driver. True story.

Jerry Cotton posted:That's not a lot, considering. A hundred-dollar bilge pump can remove thousands of litres per hour. Still pretty embarrassing because they knew and tried to hide it. Also, it's a major prestige project that just wasted billions in tax payer dollars and is about to waste more because  if you believe their bullshit line about "repair is paid for by the contractors".

When I worked retail I remember one time waking a trucker up who had parked at the dock sometime before we all got there to unload the truck and he jumped out buck naked except for cowboy boots and a hat. He didn't really understand why everyone recoiled. Drugs are a crazy thing.

Simpler explanation is its not a trucker, that is a worker for the facility in a switcher, likely the normal person called off or something and its their first time having to slide a trailer between 2 others, not just slapping a trailer on a door with nothing around it.

When I worked in a warehouse we had truckers come in all the time who would use our bathroom after loading or unloading our poo poo. This did not stop many them from deciding the side of our building or the pile of pallets was a good place to piss.

Longfin Corp bought a blockchain company, and the CEO went on CNBC to discuss crypto and his company. Edit: further information copy paste: Longfin (symbol LFIN) just went public and started trading last week. Their IPO price was $5 per share. Right after they went public, they announced they were buying ziddu.com which does something with blockchain and this set off a mania in the stock. It reached as high as $142 per share which made the value of this very small company be worth something like 6 or 7 billion dollars. Crazy poo poo like this happens from time to time in the stock market, and there may have been some boiler-room shenanigans as well, but bitcoin mania is probably the main reason for this ridiculous stock price move. The CEO came on CNBC to say that none of the stock price's rocket ride made any fundamental sense; in other words, he was trying to tell folks his company was not worth billions and that anybody buying his stock at those prices could expect to lose most of their money.
