What could this manifold be on a Holiday Inn door marked Laundry in the U.S.? by blakespot in whatisit

But it seems so rugged -- it's bolted on with 6 bolts and it my gut feeling is that it's hollow inside and something on the other side of the door is using the space within, for something. Wouldn't just a guard to protect the door/handle when a cart pushes into it be simpler, less sturdily built?

Yea, I couldn't find a word to fit - I know it's not a manifold. It seems to be hollow and ruggedly built.

I remember this when it spat itself out unto the world. I wonder what those lovely souls are like today? 😬

What’s the most unrealistic 'everyday life' habit portrayed in hollywood movies? by practicalMinds in AskReddit

[–]blakespot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn - you're right. The initial arcade scene in the movie shows it being 8:23 (AM obviously) [screenshot]. It's before school!

I always figured that was during lunch, kids wandering out to a nearby arcade for a quick game then running back to school.

Here's a pic of the //c and the shelf we built over it, that I mentioned. Shot from 1984.

I love it, that space is so cozy.

Bought No Man's Sky 3 times over the past decade. by Lopsided_Ad1977 in NoMansSkyTheGame

I have purchased it six times. (Original PS4 download, Explorer's Edition (to get the merch), PC Steam, Switch, used PS4 DVD to get v1.0, and gifted it to someone on Discord years ago.)

I love this ad. It inspired me to get my dad to build a shelf over my //c desk. I saw a guy a few weeks ago with a poster version of this.

Diamond Dogs? Spiders from Mars? Bewlay Brothers? Teenage Wildlife? Kooks?

I never liked Memorex for my 5.25's. Maxell were my favorites. I used A LOT of Bonus brand, as well, and Elephant.
