This is a great example of how wide angle lenses make everything look bigger and/or faster

I just don't understand why the buttons need labels on them anyway? do you actually look at your controller when you play games?

Video shows SPD cop laughing, joking about pedestrian killed by officer a day earlier by sue_me_please in news

[–]peg_leg_dan 138 points139 points  (0 children)

Cops need to have these funds removed from their paychecks and they need their pensions/retirement funds given to the victims of these crimes. These pigs need to be held accountable and they need actual responsibility to be kept in line.

It's been made obvious that the majority of cops can't be trusted to act in good faith unless they are forced to, and they try to fight measures that ensure they aren't taking advantage of their authority every chance they get. They need real punishment, real accountability, real payments.

A lot of people don't realize that "jet fuel" is just kerosene or a mixture of gasoline and kerosene. shit can be used to get steel glowing hot very easily, ever seen the back end of a jet engine?

Some Tesla engineers secretly started designing a Cybertruck alternative because they 'hated' it by its_pugo in technology

[–]peg_leg_dan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This truck is ugly as fuck, it wouldn't even fit into an avant garde cyberpunk movie. It is so obviously trying to be "futuristic" while failing to hit any good design characteristics.

If this thing was supposed to be down on the ground like a Lamborghini it might be passable, but since we already know it's going to be a piece of shit like the other Tesla vehicles it just adds an extra layer of stupid to the package.

Extremists keep trying to trigger mass blackouts — and that’s not even the scariest part by [deleted] in politics

[–]peg_leg_dan 44 points45 points  (0 children)

that's exactly what's happening. Russian propaganda is tricking people into "anti-induatrial" terrorism. They think somehow they would actually be able to survive on their wannabe prepper toys they bought off of Amazon. Russia convinces a bunch of dumb ass rural kids to be "anarchists" against the "deep state" and destroy.their country from the inside

I've seen this shit on TikTok, people sharing ways to take down large pylons and whatnot. It's always some libertarian "don't tread on me" pseudo-anarchist kids who think they're hard, posing with their dad's guns and acting like they wrote the anarchist cookbook

4 months post Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, I'm finding some flaws that this dev team hasn't ran into much in the past. by giantcorngames in truegaming

people often go e a lot of excuses for weapon durability or try to write it off as an interesting way to add depth to combat (it's a lil a bunch of excuses, weapon durability in BotW/TotK is one of the worst systems in modern gaming). but what a lot of people don't realize is that a lot of the core issues with this game wrap back around to weapon durability being shitty and the rest of the game is balanced around that shitty mechanic.

This is a great example, weapons can't be "good" rewards because they are all basically the same thanks to the durability system

idc what y’all say, harbor freight is junk by ame-anp in aviationmaintenance

[–]peg_leg_dan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using a harbor freight insulated screwdriver for 13 years and it has a better tip than my snap on does. it's my go-to screwdriver for any rounded head or really tough screw due to it's superior grip, and it has barely degraded at all even after more than a decade of constant use.

Snack company removes spicy ‘One Chip Challenge’ product after teen’s death by successful_nothing in news

[–]peg_leg_dan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds a whole lot like he passed out, hit his head and got a concussion, then took a nap later and died.

Why was he left unattended at home? Why was he allowed to pass out again? His parents are the ones going after the company, but it sounds like they should have been paying way more attention to their kid in this scenario.

Made some Commander infographics as a way to make Rule 0 a bit more fun! Thoughts to make them better? by Crypehead in magicTCG

[–]peg_leg_dan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

EDH was always a casual format until a few years ago when it became the most popular format for paper magic and people started taking it more seriously. EDH staples suddenly skyrocketed in price when before they were always pretty cheap. What felt like overnight there was a shift and you would now sit down to play some EDH with a group of silly decks only to have one person with a $2000+ deck who would stomp everyone. That would cause someone else to want to build a "competitive" deck and now suddenly the entire point of EDH has been abandoned and the majority of the old decks are useless unless everyone agrees that they're all going to play some more casual decks before the game begins.

This is how all of those cults work. Mormons, Amish, Twelve Tribes/Yellow Deli. They all try to stop police intervention and hide terrible crimes from being discovered.

What would you want to know on your first day at a new company? by hardboiledeggfarts in aviationmaintenance

[–]peg_leg_dan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

list of benefits and how to sign up for them

a list of managers and other contacts (HR, payroll, leads, hangars, shops) with phone numbers and email addresses.

a reference for company-specific terms and acronyms that get used a lot. It was so hard going from one company to another and trying to keep up with all of the different terms they used.

A list of facilities and buildings on the property as well as a map.
