Breaking traction when driving through a puddle.
I assumed they are super heavy and would stick to the ground, nope.
The tyres are essentially treadless drift-tyres, and any water on a polished concrete surface will allow some sliding.
This was without load and no crash ensued, just a momentary boost in adrenaline as 1.5 tons is moving a different direction as expected.
Example:
The two mirrors(2m x 1.5m) installed in the exposed brick, narrow, central room of the house, make such a massive difference to the amount of light available from the skylight, and give a feeling of extra roominess.
One mirror was down for the day during an AC install, and the feeling in the space was noticeably more closed-in.
So dumb.
Hour argument, that the final cliff fall scene in Predator 1 was two different jumps in the 2 cuts.
Can see in the first one he is rotating. Second cut is a straight plumb drop into the water.
How were the rotational moments counteracted?
They weren’t, it’s two different jumps/takes.
2 friends came up with some hair-brained arguments that you could stop rotating on the way down. (눈_눈)
The only way would be air resistance, and hands/arms is not going to be enough to create drag to counter the rotation.
Previously used OINotepad.
Now using neutriNote for quick note taking.

Smog - The Well
or some Brad Sucks
Walking through a cemetry at night, with 8 friends.
A tree ahead starts violently shaking its top branch then stops.
We all continue walking past the tree, which is around 6m high. All examine the top of it to see no person or animal up there.
Agree it was weird.
It was shaking too much to be a cat or bird. No wind at the time.
Trisquel GNU/Linux
Because it is a fully free distro, which is important to me.
I use Trisquel because it is the most user friendly I’ve found in the free distros.
Some hardware drivers are unavailable, but that’s fine, just transferred away from non-free hardware.
For compatibility, usually export to PDF.
