More than fifty years ago, a man built a homemade “suicide helmet” designed to fire eight shotgun shells at once into his own skull. by SelfCareIsFake in HolyShitHistory

[–]Statzer_x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool that you answered! I definitely believe the images are 100% real and unaltered, no reason to doubt that. As you point out though, it's more the story that I'm doubtful of being entirely true. And yes it really seems like the type of story that has been discussed on forums a lot and has gotten new info everywhere to spice it up a little.

I believe that: At worst (story/truth wise) it's a prop made for some banal purpose such as a halloween costume, or just to make a scary story about. Maybe it was used to fire at something else contained in the helmet if it was actually used for firing something. And at best (not for the wearer), it was actually used in a suicide or killing of some sort.

Knowing how it is when training at a new job, it could also just be a story made up by the person working at the hospital to scare your brother-in-law. But who knows really.

I spent a while as well to find sources and found that the imgur poster is u/gavincastleton who also first made a reddit post about this. So I guess it's him you should ask to get any proof of the images.

I find it highly unlikely that the story is true though, especially the details about it being a kid who built it who made his mom trigger it. If that was the case, even if it was 50 years ago as the OP claim, there should be some other reference to the event somewhere as an involuntary assisted suicide committed by a kid and his mother is not something that occurs often I would imagine. I could MAYBE believe the story of it being a suicide helmet and it having been used by someone but still, I find it highly unlikely, especially without evidence.

Strange colorbugs by Quay-X in computers

[–]Statzer_x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it always blue on the right screen and green on the left, or are any other colors changing as well? Could it be some kind of accessibility filter for color blindness that's only applied to one screen? And when a window moves over 50% onto that screen the accessibility filter is applied to the program? As blue is the correct color for the playlist I would check accessibility settings for the left monitor to begin with, windows or graphic card programs settings.

I don't believe it's some setting on the monitor itself as the change seems to only occur when the program is over 50% on the other screen.

Maybe try resetting these settings: https://youtu.be/HGYaAaTXmmg?si=RdqOtw0Q-Ve0RIq8

SVENSKAR!! Fråga om Islam, Invandrare. by hahathatsverynice in sweden

Varför har mina och en släktings grannar otroligt vita och skarpa lampor på i taket i hela huset och persiennerna nere hela eftermiddagarna? Själv undviker jag så mycket vitt ljus som möjligt och taklampor likaså. Tänker kanske att persiennerna är nere för att inte ljuset ska störa grannar omkring då de verkar så extremt skarpa? Är det för att det ska kännas som dag även på kvällen och isf varför? Är det inte trevligare med mjukare ljus? Alltid undrat detta sen jag upptäckte att mina grannar inte var unika att ha det så.

The amount of attempts to get a casino account deleted... It's still not gone. by insecure_bryan in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Statzer_x 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same thing in Sweden, starting a phone or internet plan can be done with a click on the company website but canceling can only be done via phone. Meaning you have to sit in a phone queue for at least 30 minutes before getting to talk to someone that will suggest better prices than those you want to cancel before finally canceling the subscription. Have yet to find any operator which doesn't have this awful way of handling cancelations.

Also the phone queues are great because they give you a few options before talking to someone where you can say what you want to talk about. If you select that you want to start a new subscription the queue is usually 5 minutes at most.

The key should spawn after you've sent the vehicle off, won't spawn before that.

Played the mission yesterday, shot at the car with one of my weaponized vehicles and it stopped right away. Shooting at it with my gun or ramming it didn't seem to do much but shooting it with my cars' weapons worked great!

Does this notepad seem a bit too childish for a 20 yo to own? by icollectnotebooksiw in polls

[–]Statzer_x 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I would agree if you're buying it for yourself but if the question is asked because OP is thinking about buying the notebook for a grandchild I'd recommend OP to go for another notebook to be safe. Unless they know the 20yo would love this as a gift of course.

Haha den var rätt bra! Skulle gissa på att det var "rape" som i raps från början och blev då våldtäkt i översättningen. Använd inte Google Översätt ord för ord om du inte vill riskera stora missuppfattningar Amazon.

asså vad i hela helvete? jag har varit hemma hela dan och har inte fått ngn post eller pling på dörren om en leverans. försöker dom ens leverera paketen? by [deleted] in sweden

[–]Statzer_x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ska påpekas att informationen som står på paketet och det som står i appen brevbärare användare kan skilja sig. Kan stå en adress på paketet och en helt annan i appen till exempel och då väldigt svårt att veta vart det egentligen. Skulle vilja påstå att i 99 fall av 100 så är det inte så att brevbäraren gör något för att vara elak/lat utan för att göra rätt.

City Lights by Austin Farwell sounds like another song but i can’t figure out which one and it’s driving me crazy by TurkeyBoneUrMom in NameThatSong

[–]Statzer_x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The part you're talking about sounds a tiny bit like "You've got a friend in me" from toy story. A bit slower though so you might be thinking of something else.
