Some of the video distinctly shows the fact that the bases of the bollards angles outward, making them a fair bit wider than claimed (and the clearance smaller than claims). With a lot of European vehicles being front wheel drive, the base of the bollard is a ramp to launch the front end of the car from, as it…

Want to know what I see in that Google Streetview image that is amusing? That idiot concoction is meant to keep large vehicles out of town. What do you see just a little way up the road, heading away from the barrier?

A baker’s gross is zero. Why? Because if the baker is gross, he’s got no customers buying anything he makes. :D

How exactly do lasers of any sort induce “shitification”? Also, the Elon Musk satellite theory has merit. All signs point at Starlink providing shitty service.

You can pick up a 7 kw electric motor pretty cheap on Amazon, like $300-$500. And that will be like 4 times the current output.

Don’t assume your father was cheap. In my neck of the woods, towing is AAA freebie or almost $17 per mile. I got a tow last year, totaling 4 miles. Cost me $70.

Take a good look at the damaged section you removed. Check to see if it is copper wire or aluminum. I’ve always found it a lot more likely to have fire risks with the aluminum garbage. A rule of thumb: a copper penny can replace a fuse in a short term pinch, but electrocuting a can of beer or soda just makes a damned…

IF the weapon was supplied by a local small arms dealer on a rental basis AND that particular dealer also has a gun range attached to their retail outlet, this may have been the result of force of habit - most shops with a range will rent out guns in inventory for use on the range. And such ranges usually include a…

The industry doesn’t buy guns, it rents them. I can see some local guy accidentally supplying a loaded weapon for rental, especially if his shop also has a gun range attached, where guns can be readily rented (and most dealers include a magazine or two of ammunition to be used in the range). Sadly it is not an…

All actors should take some sort of firearms competency course, so their can be their own last line of defense against this sort of thing by checking the weapon one last time for themselves before filming begins.

You mean something like 3D printing the bullets of TPU with minimal structural infill, so if an accident like this does happen, it isn’t any worse than being slapped in the face with one of those floppy silicone baking pans? Hell, they could do the same thing with the primer cups, so they empty out the propellant, and…

This demonstrates why EVERY actor should invest in classes of some sort for firearms handling. They are their own last line of defense against this sort of accident and really should be checking the weapon one final time for their own satisfaction before performing the scene.

Pretty disgusting that they did this to a guy who worked at that specific dealership for NINETEEN years. Just goes to show, big business has absolutely no loyalty to its long term skilled tradesman employees.

That is because for most of the last three decades, the media has been pushing the narrative that there is only a single fab left here in the US, and the only reason that exists is to fulfill the chip needs of the US military.

TSMC is actually in the process of building a Fab here in the US, which was announced not that long ago. At a cost of $10 billion, it will take at least half a decade to build the place.

Good question, considering dingbat Biden cut off Russian small arms ammunition imports (and Russia actually imported more ammo to the US than China).

Everybody blames coronavirus, but forgets this whole inventory supply issue started with Obama’s “cash-for-clunkers” BS. That took nearly 700,000 vehicles out of circulation.

Carvana had a dealership facility in North Carolina shuttered by the state for this very same nonsense. Story covered by former Jalopnik contributor Steve Lehto.

This of course leave you with something you’ll have to live down forevermore. Exactly how many time have you witness a rhino getting its dick power-sanded to know what that sounds like? And was it a belt sander, random orbit sander or disc sander?

One of those photos indicates the flooring need to be replaced in the camper section. So there is probably a lot of hidden deterioration to be repaired besides “faded paint”.
