Dude is rad. I feel like this is just the natural evolution of combining a sulky (the little trailer for you to stand on) off a walk behind mower and the advent of powered wheel barrows. Although his looks home made and like it has scooter running gear. We were running sulkies years ago and their pretty common, both from manufactuterers and home made. It means you have to keep your brakes well mainted on your mower, and until you get good with them, it's easy to eat poo poo, but they are loving great.

Replaced the original battery from my Samsung S8+ today. She was a puffy boy, ready to pop. I only noticed because I was bored at work and spun my phone on the desk. To my surprise it kept spinning, which meant it was spinning on a high point on the back of the phone. Popped the phone out of it's case, and the battery had bulged enough to almost fully separate the back plate from the phone.

that's fun. reminds me of a friend who asked why the track pad on their mac wasn't working anymore

the right wrist area of the case was starting to separate from the battery expanding, which wedged itself under the track pad preventing clicks

I'm not sure a face shield would last on your head long with that kinda pressure

The real question is why they didn't turn the water off

The funny thing is, after doing some research about replacing my battery, apparently my S8+ uses the exact same battery as the Galaxy Note 7 that was having the exploding issues. Had to get that sucker replaced STAT.

I live near this airport and am in the flight path for this show every year but have never actually gotten up close. Last year I vowed to attend in 2023 and was thinking about going to this afternoon's show but I'm in the middle of a kitchen remodel that has gone long and thought I better be responsible and work on that instead. :negative:

I have no clue what a MiG-23 Flogger is but what I read before today's show was that it was the only privately owned one left and, welp
