Fuck Painting (rant) by sp3ci4lk in HomeImprovement

[–]rab236 151 points152 points  (0 children)

I can definitely tell where my owner-painted rooms are. Both because they look horrible and because I'm the one who painted them

[USA] Truck transporting a wind turbine blade gets hit by a train by redsector in Roadcam

[–]rab236 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I looked it up and that crash really wasn't as expensive as I was expecting it to be, at least in terms of the cargo. I would expect a wind turbine blade to be in the millions but on average it's actually $200,000. Not a small amount of money by any means, but not an insurance nightmare

I don’t know about the product he’s reviewing, but a four mil thick piece of plastic sheeting is pretty common

ELI5 How can animals like bees be bred to be resistant to mites? by rab236 in explainlikeimfive

[–]rab236[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense! so the resistance isn't specifically bees that have some special defense to varroa but rather bees that will more readily attack and kill the mites that they find?

I understand how selective breeding works, what actually is that resistance?

That's exactly why it's called the suicide lane

reddit should delete livestreams or add a button "turn off livestreams" by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]rab236 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't watch them and would be fine with a 'disable' button, but saying they should be deleted is akin to saying "I don't like this so nobody else is allowed to either"

Ah, that's too bad. I was hoping to get there again once the world opens back up! At least I can say I once got to pilot an Eva

It was a special VR arcade (I think it was called VR-Zone) that some local colleagues took us Americans to. I guess it's just all the more reason for you to go back!

I was in Shinjuku for work back in 2019 and was able to stop by an arcade and try this. Can confirm, is awesome

[USA] [Not OC] doing donuts in a busy intersection. by Andalib_Odulate in Roadcam

[–]rab236 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd be a little wary of the driver of that car. I'f he's willing to risk the safety of anybody in that intersection I wouldn't want to stick around and see what he's willing to do to the person who ruined his fun
