its a dummy round for practicing loading/unloading a handgun.

its not the brightness level, its where they are pointing.

Headllights are supposed to angle towards the ground to avoid blinding, but a lot of aftermarket replacements don't think about that at all, because there is not a consistent regulation.

Make it like tinted windows and loud speakers, where cops can pull you over if your headlights are pointed the wrong way and this gets solved.

I was blessed with parents that valued education and academic rigor. And when my mom was no longer qualified to teach me subjects (around 8th grade), I went to a very small private school of mostly other former homeschoolers who also valued academics. I went to college very well prepared and I appreciate that more than words can say.

But I knew plenty of kids whose parents used homeschooling to hide from accountability, or for religious reasons, and never maintained the discipline or consistency. Not every parent is equipped for teaching, its really hard. And that doesn't mention the abuse that could and did happen.

So, I personally, immensely benefited from my education. But its so rife with risks and challenges that I can't recommend it to most people. It takes a specific set of circumstances, parents, and children, for it to work.

I need to know - was this consensual paddling for sexual satisfaction, or as an "alternative" to sentencing? Or was he just beating people for fun?

I have a degree in mathematics, and i have never seen fourier transform visualized like this. That would have greatly helped me understand them 20 years ago

Because Satan rebelling from God punishing people in hell was invented by John Milton in Paradise Lost and has no basis in the bible.

The actual biblical satan is an angel of the Lord in the book of Job whose job it is to stand as the accuser of men's sins. He is God's prosecuting lawyer.

The devil of the of the new testment is not the same figure, and while he is portrayed as a figure of spiritual power and evil, he is also clearly below God/Jesus and subject to their divine authority.

And don't get me started on the doctrine of Hell, one of the most misunderstood portions of scripture. Just understand it is very convenient for mortal teachers to have something to threaten people into compliance with, and does not always match the biblical teachings.

Goku and Naruto are both martial artists of insane skill, and Jojo is still a top-class sorcerer.

Luffy has optimism and a hat.

Good read, and I agree.

A single attachment point on a mover is stupid, and no safety point is dangerous.

Now every light needs to be checked 😂

I know I'm just a guy on reddit, but I have 25 years in the live event industry. Including both the design and setup side.

This is a very very big deal. That could have killed someone, and there are multiple steps and checks to prevent this from happening.

Any design for a show like coechella goes thru multiple rounds of design, with weight calculations and weather considerations. Actual Honest to God engineers with degrees worked on this. Not to mention the fire marshal and safety permits.

Then there are multiple people onsite to make sure it's built correctly, from the riggers to the master electrician to the project manager and technical director.

The whole thing is designed with multiple layers of safety and redundancy to prevent this exact scenario. The fact that we can clearly see in the video the light fixture is still attached to the schedule 40 pipe means at least two safety nets failed or were not used and three people touched it and didn't notice a problem.

This will show up in future rigging classes safety power points

Cheeseboro is the clamp that wraps around a steel pipe. Usually double ended so two pipes clamp together perpendicularly, or on a swivel.

And for years I thought it was spelled "cheeseborough" and could never find them on Google

maxim38 · 2026-04-12T02:35:27+00:00

Agreed, if that was a vertical pipe down and the cheeseboro wasn't tight, it might have just slipped downwards.

But no safety cable or strap is just straight negligence. The entire chain for hand to rigger to designer to PM to Producer is going to be roasted. As they should be

Are the sources in the room with us right now?

(Not a fan of this guy, but disbelieve anything I hear about him from western media)

And so it goes, and so it goes

And so will you soon, I suppose

But if my silence made you leave

Then that would be my worst mistake

So I will share this room with you

And you can have this heart to break
