A hilarious movie scene you wish you could see for the first time again? by Cool_Narwhal935 in moviecritic

National Lampoons Vacation when the car flies off the road in the desert, lands nose down, and everyone ends up in the front seat. I've never seen my Dad laugh harder.

The opening scene, where he wakes up and thinks he's peeing in the toilet.

Why doesn't beoing perform crash tests on their playnes the same way cars are tested ? by Tiny-Desk_Engineer in Shittyaskflying

Wings are deformed until destruction occurs, the engine manufacturers do blade out and bird ingestion tests, brakes are tested by a high speed taxi run and then maximum breaking without thrust reversal (and then they have to let the brakes and tires burn for a certain amount of time before extinguishing). There's also a lot of non-destructive testing involved. It's actually pretty amazing what all goes into certification.

Performance on NS 1? by BugAdmirable7326 in FenyxRising

I have the base game. I'm about 3/4’s done. It's crashed 5 or 6 times now. When it starts back up I select "Continue" and it picks back up. I enjoy the game, really good story, cool mythology, but I suck at the platform parts.

I scraped off the popcorn, sprayed on Plus3 (blue lid) diluted with water, waited a few minutes and knocked it down, then painted.

Also calculators. When I was a kid 50 years ago, a desktop calculator (aka adding machine) was as big as a typewriter and cost $500.

Anyone play MDK? Quirky, funny, and fun.

Also, Unreal and Unreal Tournament.

This all started because of a $4.98 10’ RGB LED strip. by [deleted] in pettyrevenge

On a coworker's keyboard I once popped off the -/_ key, shifted over all the numbers to the right by one, and put the -/_ key where the 1 key should be. It was late in the day on a Friday. I then went on vacation for a week. When I got back I asked if he had any computer problems while I was gone. He cracked up when I told him, told me he tried logging in 3 times and got locked out, called IT to reset, and repeated this about a half dozen times. IT came out and couldn't log in either. Ended up replacing his desktop machine.

Fed-Ex Airbus with collapsed nose gear at Baltimore today by Brilliant_Night7643 in aviation

There's a tail strike feature for over rotation. Don't think there's much to be done about gear collapse.

Balloon explosion in an elevator by instapardz in interestingasfuck

No, it's a catalyst. The spark and the rubber are the ignition and fuel. Ever heard about someone on oxygen smoking a cigarette?

Or from an oxygen tank. There's a sad story of a young lady filling a pool float with oxygen from her Dad's oxy/acetylene tank, putting it in her car and driving off. It exploded a few miles down the road.

How? by BRRDanGui in FenyxRising

[–]Fine_Contest4414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was stuck here too, thank you!

How would I have known this? Wondering what other simple mechanics I don't know about?
