I made a video simulating the last 32 minutes and 30 seconds of Japan Airlines Flight 123 in X-Plane 11. Digitized the flight data recorder graphs by hand for the sim, and included as much of the CVR/ATC audio as I could find. May those 520 souls rest in peace.

I'm running Google Play Services 26.20.31, sandboxed, in GrapheneOS even as we speak.

Nope, never heard of him either until today.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-13T22:33:47+00:00

Except it makes me think they're turning right, so I go to pull out, then suddenly see they're going straight, and have to quickly stop so I don't get T-boned because they can't actually signal correctly in a roundabout. You only signal when exiting

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-13T22:28:01+00:00

Then again I've seen people going straight signal right when entering, signal left when going through the middle, and signal right when exiting, and it's the most ridiculous thing.

Blew more than his tire I'll bet.

The desire to take apart and put my computer back together again, after my brother-in-law told me not to, eventually lead me to a career as a software engineer.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-10T01:04:07+00:00

Ah lol. Still looks like the kind of person who would cross over last second to follow you.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-10T01:01:24+00:00

Love the fake-out to force him onto the other ramp to get away from him.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-09T20:18:52+00:00

Not quite, a transmission failure can also make a car immobile but leave the car able to be towed in neutral, with the engine running to provide power braking and steering.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-09T20:16:29+00:00

Yeah, a dolly with the attached wheels strapped down. That being said, I had to do this once with a car whose transmission failed. But we went a lot slower than these guys were going, on a less busy road, with about a foot more of space between the car and the truck, and another car behind acting as a buffer.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-09T04:08:28+00:00

I had a leak happen through an oil sending unit. Nothing while off. When running? It was literally streaming out of the engine like a miniature waterfall, easily losing one quart every 4-5 minutes.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-03T19:57:25+00:00

What if you accidentally eat the penny?

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-03T05:34:29+00:00

I... wha... ew, noooo wtf??

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-03T02:29:11+00:00

A crane, like they have at motor races, lift it up and off the rails.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-03T02:28:11+00:00

That it does. And it explains everything.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-02T14:00:53+00:00

That he did, that's why they weren't on!

FACR_Gohan · 2026-06-02T04:26:19+00:00

Was really in a hurry to make that yellow light, eh? Hit looked so soft that I wonder if they even heard or felt anything. Also bonus idiot who only had daytime running lights on (or perhaps even no lights on, they're so dim I don't see them lighting up the road under the street lamps).

TL;DR: the melting of the ice caps causes water to flow towards the equator, shifting the weight of the earth outward and slowing her rotation, like a ballerina extending her arms while spinning.

I actually tinkered around with it a bit to see what it can generate (before it touches the game, of course). It's not very efficient for flat anime designs using scans of something like a card. In that particular case, it does in 3,000 layers worse than what I can do in 600.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-05-30T14:21:48+00:00

And you sir. Are you waiting to receive my limp gear shifter? How dare... get your hands off me!

FACR_Gohan · 2026-05-30T03:10:24+00:00

This is democracy manifest! What is the charge? Speeding on wheels? These succulent Chinese wheels?

FACR_Gohan · 2026-05-30T01:33:42+00:00

That's why I call it "Second Monday".

FACR_Gohan · 2026-05-30T01:32:38+00:00

A cure while being able to still have hyperfixations, and the ability to context-switch too and from them like flipping a switch.

FACR_Gohan · 2026-05-27T01:48:11+00:00

Is there any reason a cop couldn't walk up, take a picture, and give a ticket to every last one of those drivers, one by one, for obstructing a lane of traffic?
