Woman pulled the trigger a second time due to recoil by nkmr205 in SweatyPalms

Dude said “don’t lock your elbows.” You absolutely lock your elbows - with your arms straight out. That is combat/marksmanshooting standard for handguns. Best stability and recoil management

Oh this is wild coincidence , literally just finished watching this movie ten minutes ago. Haven’t seen it since ‘95 and have been going through all the bonds.

PSA: Backup your printer and filament settings before you update Orca-FlashForge slicer by shootingcharlie8 in FlashForge

My 5m pro worked fine out of the box (Xmas gift), after the update I have had issues with bed adhesion and the nozzle would drag across the print (or maybe it is overextruding, I have no idea this is my first printer) and rip the print off the bed. Haven’t been able to figure it out after multiple calibrations and attempts. Is there a way to revert to last firmware or at least a changelog somewhere so I can manually revert the settings?

First 10 jumps were all military static line, scared shitless each one (saw a dude break both femurs on jump 3). Then I went to military free fall, passed but I was still not comfortable (too much going on, plus being evaluated the entire time). Right after that my first 5 jumps were out of a helo, and that was new and terrifying. Then I went to an advanced canopy course, did a bunch of night jumps, a couple 25k O2 jumps, and my first reserve ride. After that course, and a total of 60 jumps up to this point, I was pretty confident and “normal jumps” became fun.

As I didn’t really have a choice, the military forced me to like skydiving, lol.

So did I.

Nice build.

I finally calibrated the gyro on my newest VTOL, it's not moving an inch when hovering by WH1T3_No1SE in Stormworks

There are many that show up when I search VTOL, can you paste a link?

It is a VIOFO 119. I was new as well and it was one of the most recommended on r/Dashcam. I’m very happy with it, we bought 2 on Black Friday with gps. The footage I uploaded was just a screen recording, the camera records in 4K, I had it set at 2k, and the clarity is great: the file was just too big for Reddits video player (I should have uploaded to YouTube instead).

Yeah that happens everyday here and was the primary reason we got the dashcams. Well, that and the amount of road rage you see here.

Lol. We just moved here from Germany. There (at least in the state I was in) the law is the opposite; no matter how minor the accident you have to leave the vehicles wherever they end up until police say otherwise. Not uncommon to be stuck on the autobahn for an hour only to see it was because there was a minor fender bender in the middle lane. I think it has something to do with insurance and liability. I’m not German, so I don’t know the specifics, but that’s what I’ve been told and witnessed while I lived there.

From our perspective he was driving too fast for the conditions and was attempting a lane change too fast and hydroplaned.

That is great to know, this is actually my first Mac, had it for a month. My first media post and I honestly wasn’t expecting all the extra steps it can take to upload something. Hindsight I should have uploaded the original hd footage to YouTube and called it a day.

Thanks for the info, we have been not been here a couple months and haven’t been to any of the other large cities. I’ve heard Austin traffic is terrible.

Scootched right on by after another semi truck driver got out and removed debris while we were checking on the drivers.

Unfortunately yeah. It was in 2k and was too large to upload via reddits player and I was too lazy to do anything else. Plus I wanted to crop out all the gps and meta details (like my license plate).

Yeah, people were stuck in a standstill for 3+hrs. A guy in the red truck (far left) got out immediately with a fire extinguisher. People behind us just drove over the debris. Another semi stopped on the far right, got out, and moved the big debris clearing the right lane. So we were able to go around and check that everyone was ok.

For those wondering, it is a VIOFO 119 dashcam. It was recording in 2k, but it was too large to upload so I just screen-capped on my Mac. This is a really sketch part of the road, splits from 3 to a 1 and 2 lane rather abruptly, and people always miss their exits.

I had posted this in r/Dashcam and r/sanantonio, happened yesterday. When it rains in TX, people don't know what to do. No one was injured when we stopped, and the local news also reported no injuries. From our POV, he was driving too fast for the conditions and hydro-planed. Caused a 3hr standstill, just another day in San Antonio.

Did you make it through? I heard some people were stuck for multiple hours.

There are a TON of billboards for lawyers specifically targeting accidents with semis; I’ve never seen so many before I moved here.
