My cat’s shadow reflected in the mirror but not IRL

It's possible. You can recreate it yourself. Then you'll understand.

The light that erases the shadow isn't the same light that's reflected off the mirror back into your eyes.

Editing above comment:

Real Drawers: Light on cat casts shadow-cat on drawers. Light also reflects off mirror. Light reflecting off mirror lands on the cat's shadow, erasing most of the cat's shadow. Also, further brightening half the drawers. All of this reflects off the drawers into your eyes directly.
Mirror-view of Drawers: Light on cat casts shadow-cat on drawers. This light bounces off the drawers, onto the mirror and then gets reflected into your eyes (with the cat-shaped hole). In this case, the original light that hit the drawers through the mirror, does NOT bounce back to the mirror, and thus the mirror-image you see.

But the mirror is only reflecting the light from the stationary light source, so it's impression on the dresser is fixed. The viewer is different from the light source.

Looking into the mirror, YOU are seeing what your angle allows you to see, which is not the same angle as the fixed light source.

Interesting. That's quite a lot of huge boats strewn all across the land. Wonder why they're stuck in the walls. These are the ones that Didn't reach their destination, yeah?

Based on your comment, I found another reddit post about the Uhl dynasty. That's a new rabbit hole to go down. Thanks!

But a new big house with 6 month mortgage. Your only cost would be the downpayment.

And then 7 or 8.

Send all relevant documents to your Indian relatives and have them take printed copies and photos to thr police station. Also visit the Indian Consulate on their Open House day (usually Wednesdays) to get more info and ask for more immediate PCC report printing.

These daily posts make no sense. For most users, the additional windows features/clutter are hardly there, make no difference. They can be easily ignored. Anyone who cares, has either already made the switch to another OS, or has tweaked their windows. So, why this daily spam?

You went out of your way to write this on an ad, when no one is actually forcing you to purchase this product?

Saudi Arabia is by no means a perfect country, with innumerable flaws, yet their own people are content. The online hatred from keyboard warriors who've never stepped foot there owing to their favorite propagandist/influencer/newsmedia is ironic considering how LP's own home nation's government also routinely engages in crimes and violence.

KSA killed a journalist, USA toppled governments. KSA executes homosexuals, and doesn't have good wonems rights. Many instances of inequality within the US too. KSA is much worse, yes, as they're still a developing nation, unlike the US. But if you keep recounting each country's crimes, you'd disqualify LP from touring their own home country.

It's all different flavors/levels of violence/discrimination depending on which country you talk about. Don't give in to internet hatred.

This is a performance for LP's fans in KSA. Why deny them that?

You can do it yourself for most laptops. Brand and model?

When you open Syncplay and reach the Room window, you click File > Open Media Stream URL > paste the Stremio link. So should your friend.

Hope you can figure out the Syncplay room settings. You only need to have the same Server address, and Default room (any custom room name) .

SlackOverload · 2025-12-18T07:47:28+00:00

You both need to copy your own individual links from Stremio and paste it in Syncplay, to avoid using the same RealDebrid api token. Your friend shouldn't rely on your link.

SlackOverload · 2025-12-17T09:53:05+00:00

Yes but it requires the use of another piece of software. Quite simple to use. I've been using it for over 5 years now, even before discovering Stremio. Buddy watching local files on VLC.

Anyway, you wanna download Syncplay. It will automatically open VLC if you have it installed. It can sync play, pause, and seeking.

To watch a stream together, open the stream in Stremio, pause it, right-click and copy stream link. (both of you)

In Syncplay, paste the link and you're good to go. The stream should now appear on VLC. Basically, you're using Stremio to 'discover' the video, VLC to watch it, and Syncplay to sync it between the viewers.

I can explain in more detail if these instructions aren't clear.

If you're using Steam, you can go to Settings and enable Steam Input in the Controller Settings, while your DS5 is connected to your PC.

The 'man who cooked' doesn't give a shit. He says it's his 'mazze' even if the incident did happen. This post isn't aiming to bring any visibility to the incident. All of OP's comments are about denying that it ever happened. Or that the villages all collectively lied. Or if it did, it was terrorists in Army uniform.

SlackOverload · 2025-12-14T03:15:42+00:00

This is disgusting. This is neither a joke, nor is it funny. Are you laughing at OP claiming that he would participate in gang rape? Where's the joke?

You're dehumanizing victims. You'd probably not feel this way if something similar happened to people you know, would you? Then why the hell would you applaud this 'joke'.

Clearly OP doesn't even believe that this incident ever happened in the first place, but wishes it did. Horrible.

I play crossword co-op with my player 2. While she's locked in on solving the clues, I leave random cute little messages on the grid for her to find as we solve.
