No no no no no no I almost drowned when a wave 1/20th the size of that one bent me backwards and nearly broke my spine. A year in physical therapy to stand and walk normally again.

I’ve got a manual transmission car that often doesn’t like to start, so when I stop by the side of the road I often leave it running and in neutral, relying only in the parking brake which is weak and useless. One day this will be me.

So the bad news is we lost the generator. Fell off while we were trying to load it. Yeah, right in the water. The loader tipped over and fell in. Yeah, in the water too. But first it hit the boat. A little damage, yeah, and then it capsized and sank. Anyway now there’s a harbor guy here says we gotta clear out the dock because they can’t use it anymore. Could you maybe send down some bigger loading equipment so we can lift them out?

That munger building looks like it was designed to increase the suicide rate by causing depression from lack of sunlight. Santa Barbara / Goleta is a beautiful beach town and if you are living in a sunless prison cell there you are absolutely wasting your money.

We call him Larry, because that was the name he carved into the shoddy shop table he built in the garage. I just recently found a transformer in the roof powering what I assume was some kind of track lighting system that no longer exists, but still very much powered on with exposed live wires.

PurpleXVI posted:Isn't it also repeatedly turning into lanes vividly marked "BUS ONLY"? This is in downtown San Jose and I have almost turned into those bus and light rail lanes many times when driving in that area. Not to excuse the Tesla, which is clearly a death machine, but those lanes are confusing. I don’t normally have these kinds of driving problems.

Jabor posted:It's not really that they kill themselves (though a few might, depending on what exactly in the cell the radiation hits). Radiation damage can corrupt DNA to the point where cells can no longer reproduce long before it'll outright kill all the cells. Ionizing radiation damages DNA, but it’s not the reproduction that kills you. DNA is a template for protein synthesis. When it’s damaged, the cell may not be able to make or regulate vital proteins it needs to continue living. Some cells will die very rapidly, causing the immediate first wave of radiation sickness. Others will chug along for a while before dying. This is the second wave of radiation sickness, which hits several days later and generally leads to total organ failure. A fatal radiation dose is basically being dead but the cells in your body die at different times over the course of a few days.

Driving a Russian military vehicle in Ukraine I would have some serious concerns about catching an anti tank missile from someone who thought I was a target. OSHA doesn’t help with friendly fire.

I’ve been reading a lot about how the Russian military logistics chain lacks standard pallets and containers, and how this is a huge part of their failure. Besides the obvious disaster like above, consider that this truck was hand loaded and will be hand unloaded. Every Russian truck is like this. They have no forklifts or loading arms. They’re spending hours of manpower and truck time just loading and unloading, and things get damaged all the time. Losing a war due to lack of forklift operators

On the pro side he’s got liquid cooling keeping his bearings from melting. On the con side he’s going to hit a pot hole and flip onto a wet expressway and the vehicle behind will roll right over him regardless of whether they hit the brakes.

Almost fun if you can keep it off the walls and other cars I was about to say the return to traction is the worst part, especially if you’re sideways. It hits you pretty hard as you go from smooth sailing to instant full lock deceleration skid.
