It's definitely shithead kids doing it on purpose because they run away laughing every time. Get a dash cam, take the footage of the kids being assholes to the police and see what they want to do about it.

sudonim posted:What a tragic waste. What kept everyone in the area of the propane leak? Orders from management / government? Bad information? ? Lack of an authority figure telling them to get the gently caress away from the giant explosive device, combined with little common sense. I honestly don't know why those EMTs were treating the frost bite at the tank and not as far away as humanly possible. I took a propane course as part of my film work, that stuff is great, but as soon as it becomes "uncontrolled" it gets so dangerous so fast you wouldn't believe it.

Roro posted:That's a level of decadent insanity I'm not willing to attempt. I've made it before. It is so easy to do right I'm amazed how many people gently caress it up. Thawed bird, correct oil level, correct oil temperature, and a reasonable distance from buildings just in case something does go wrong. If you can manage that the resulting bird is very tasty if you don't over cook it.

IT-freude Interesting story from a very well known company supplying fantasy wargaming products in Nottingham (Games Workshop). This week, reader "James" has shared a story “from my days as a Sysadmin, at the dawn of the broadband area, when I worked for a very well known company supplying fantasy wargaming products.” Said company decided it needed an office in Europe, supplied by a warehouse in Nottingham. “To connect the sites, the ERP system needed a link between the sites,” James recalls. But the company's preferred telco was a few weeks away from launching its broadband product. The European office couldn't wait, however, so James “used an aggregated on-demand international ISDN connection so the databases could sync as required.” “This was massively expensive, but was only needed for two weeks before we could place the order for broadband. The system worked fine unattended, and everyone was happy as the ERP system worked flawlessly.” Despite the outbreak of happiness, “a week later the IT Manager called me into a meeting with HR to inform me I had been made redundant, effectively immediately.” James was escorted from the premises by security and prevented from speaking to his colleagues. Before he placed an order for broadband. “Two months later,” James wrote, “I received a call from the horrified IT Director (the IT Manager himself had been made redundant straight after me), to ask if I knew why they faced an ISDN bill for over £100,000.” Remember that bit at the start of the story about this happening at the “dawn of the broadband age”? Back then, data connections weren't cheap. So by marching James without a handover, his former employer had missed the chance to learn about the expensive ISDN connection. “I had great delight in telling them I knew exactly why the bill was so large and had they not made me redundant they would have not blown the whole year's IT investment budget in a single month,” James recalls. “Even better, they had gone over the cancellation period, locking them into a year's contract.”

If you haven't seen TFA and want to remain 100% unspoiled maybe skip this post and probably the linked video. Max Landis (screen writer and son of John Landis) has caused thousands of nerds to get super angry that he has an opinion that is less than glowing about the Force Awakens and specifically the character of Rey. The video summarizes a few dozen of his tweets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpS6TlqgLIQ Hop on to his Twitter feed https://twitter.com/Uptomyknees to see the well reasoned and thoughtful responses he has received for having an opinion. Its schadenfreude coming at you from all sides. Indolent Bastard has a new favorite as of 16:07 on Dec 21, 2015 |

OldTennisCourt posted:Dude comes off as kind of a dickhead tbh. "Ugh this icky girl is a MARY SUE from a fanfic in my fun action space movie. See she's different from how Luke Skywalker was portrayed because" Except that he does discuss Luke and how much he is a bumbler for most of A New Hope (and even in later films). He also doesn't ever call Rey an icky girl, her gender is irrelevant to the point he is making. I love that nerds are getting super steamed about this when what he is essentially saying is that flawed characters are more interesting and he wished that she was allowed to be more interesting instead of "unstoppable lead character" which is dull.

I've never really looked into it, but I'm assuming its mostly from being caught in lies or getting tagged in pictures while cheating and what not. So basically just more having Facebook as the easiest way to get caught doing/saying something stupid. Or not logging out of your account on a shared computer where your wife finds your messages with your girlfriend.
