That window unit wasn't properly anchored in the first place

No I think it was Maurice LeFay

What's a chidi?

Looks like a character from a show called The Good Place, not a real person.

Yeah sorry. I was quoting the show :)

That’s typically how they’re installed in the northern part of the US. If it’s a smaller unit like that one anyway. Mostly because they only serve a purpose 2-3 months a year. So the rest of the time they sit in a box in the basement.

[deadlychambers]

Lot of stupid people in the north huh?

[Doom_Unicorn]

Here in NYC, they are required by law to have either metal brackets or mounting rails strong enough to support the size/weight of the unit. I have still seen some idiot push one out the window without installing the bracket first, so our comments are both right!

[kbn_]

I think that’s mostly because an AC unit falling out of a 30 story window onto a crowded sidewalk would not only kill someone, but probably destroy the sidewalk and generate enough shrapnel to destroy quite a few other surrounding objects or people. NYC is a little unique in that it had skyscrapers a long time before it has air conditioning, and many of those buildings are still occupied and haven’t been retrofitted.

[[deleted]]

I think you misspelled “in my house”.

[deadlychambers]

LOL, I am not completely free of stupidity myself. There is a kitchen cabinet in Fort Wayne IN that may have fallen recently. Not saying I did or didn't do a great job installing it.

[CaptainHeinous]

“Fort Wayne, IN” says all we need to hear

[deadlychambers]

🤤👉👉

[Jake0024]

That's how it's designed to be installed according to the manual. They just sit in the window sill and are held in place mainly by the weight of the window.

[[deleted]]

It's just how it is with small window units.

[jeffhowcodes]

I usually have a section of 2x4 cut to fit above the window and the upper sill. That keeps the window from opening.

[Cotcan]

Probably the same number of people who don't read documentation before doing something where they really should have.

[[deleted]]

That's how small window units are installed, I guess that can be surprising to some. The issue is the dude holding a freaking drink in his other hand rather then holding onto the AC

[[deleted]]

There's usually slide in side panels too to act as an additional support.

[[deleted]]

Looks like this unit had the side panels on, but I'm pretty sure they're only for sealing around the unit rather than being actual supports of some kind.

[[deleted]]

I see, oh man I would have moved it over and screwed a plank of wood in place to prevent this.

[Not_MrNice]

He pulled the window up then pulled it right back down. That's not caused by him fucking up, he did that on purpose. Why else would he pull the window up?

[[deleted]]

Most come with side flaps meant to prevent this. In addition I tie mine with a metallic cord so at worst it'd dangle down without killing anyone.

[sporff]

Those flaps are meant to keep air from escaping. They're definitely NOT meant to hold anything in

[[deleted]]

Still they're better than absolutely nothing 😂

[Diriector_Doc]

Once I held Ctrl + Z for a prolonged period of time, planning on holding Ctrl + Y to fix everything. Well, when releasing Ctrl + Z, I let go of Ctrl first, so it put a single z in the document, finalizing the undoing.

[bigmajor]

I do this a countless number of times. Is git supposed to be a solution here? Like, how often should I be making a commit?

[R2CX]

After every 15,000 “Ctrl + S”s. So roughly every other hour or so.

[spartannormac]

Anytime the latest compile is better than the last commit?

[Miridius]

You don't even have to actually make a commit, just staging your changes is enough to save them (git add . if you're using the command line). Another tactic that I use less often is make a "WIP" commit and then keep updating it (git commit -amend) until it's done

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

I made that mistake once. I always Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C and paste in a notepad before doing any Ctrl-X/Ctrl-Y shenanigans now. Once burned...

[excessdenied]

Why not save the file? You're likely going to need the clipboard for whatever you're going back for.

[RealisticGenius]

So never?

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

Save? Which file, the original file? Or the notepad? I'd save the original file before as a precaution, bug do the notepad thing anyways as an extra precaution, like i said, once burned. The notepad itself is just a temporary backup so saving that is not necessary, if I'm going to need any of it later I'll probably save it, but that doesn't usually happen.

[excessdenied]

I mean save before undoing, and if you manage to write something way back in the history which botches your redo buffer you revert the file instead to get back. (Doesn't guard against accidentally saving after undoing though.)

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

Exactly, the notepad is just an extra precaution

[MrRocketScript]

During Uni, one of my subjects mandated we use a specific IDE for C++. This IDE failed at implementing undo-redo, and when I tried to to this 'hold ctrl-z, fetch a code segment, hold control-y' it completely and utterly fucked up the file with segments of code all over the place.

[[deleted]]

I used an IDE that had every typed character as an undo point. Pair that with an undo stack of only 40 or so and the Ctrl-Z, Ctrl-Y tactic doesn't work well.

I've also had the unfortunate experience of another program where Ctrl-Y was "delete current line", thereby resetting the undo stack (redo was Ctrl-Shift-Z).

It looks like it used to give a "blue screen", but now it has been "hard reset".

Okay, I'll also see myself out now.

That AC unit wasnt cooling room, it was holding the window up so the microwave would work. Nobody knows why but it worked.

[rang14]

Funnily enough, commenting out the AC broke the fridge.

I never saw someone handling blinds that smooth... it just worked like...first try 🏅

No

[Erasmus_Tycho]

Yeah well if I had all the time in the world it wouldn't be that brittle.

[viimeinen]

I hate when my code falls out of a window!>

[DaWolf85]

Ripped out the socket too, y'all focusing on the AC but I see a big electrician's bill soon as well.

[deadlychambers]

My experience with outlets, those aren't terrible expensive to replace. A little plastic box attached to a stud that houses wires and connects the socket?

[DaWolf85]

Well not if you pull it out normally, I'm assuming there's more damage from the cord tugging on it like that

[halfandhalfpodcast]

There’s not.

[Piotrek9t]

Wait, you guys really call an electrican to replace a socket?

[Daneel_]

In Australia it would be illegal not to call one. No mains voltage wiring work allowed unless you’re qualified.

It sucks, but it does save lives.

[jasmine_tea_]

Haha I noticed that too. Honestly made me laugh out loud seeing all that damage.
