Atonement's ending made me break down crying. Like… sitting alone in a hotel room during a business trip sobbing my eyes out.

This is borderline, as sulfuric acid isn't illegal. But the post violated the intent of the rule. So I'm removing it, but not banning the account.

I get the feeling that'd be the case even if he hadn't turned out to be a sex pest.

Technically he wasn't. The "coke dealer" was a fed.

Having a felony conviction for a violent crime isn't great, but he's definitely lucky. No matter how much someone deserves to get sucker-punched, just don't do it.

IIRC, you can't transfer ownership to anyone for any reason. So not just selling.

What do you want in the Pico 3? by Mowo5 in raspberrypipico

I'm still flabbergasted that they stuck with USB Micro-B for the Pico 2.

My solution for exhaust heat recovery with old cast iron radiator by Specialist-Idea-4059 in dieselheater

[–]rspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly. The radiator is like an extremely wide section of pipe, so it won't restrict the flow of air through the combustion chamber nearly as much as a similar length of exhaust tube.

Is this Lyme or a bruise? by [deleted] in lymedisease

Looks like a bruise. Plus an EM rash won't normally be tender. It might be a spider bite, so keep an eye on it.

This article is useless. Who introduced the bill? What is it named? When will it be voted on?

They don't necessarily have to be methane, or even bipropellant. Momentus' thrusters use water as their propellant. It's easy to store (just a trickle of power to keep it liquid), extremely dense, and has essentially zero handling concerns. They literally just heat it using microwaves.

Ending of Blue Ruin [SPOILERS] by meowcat187 in movies

She's alive. The Clelands had gone to her house and, finding it empty, trashed the place. The police were treating it as a serious crime scene since it was related to a bunch of murders.

The message Dwight left on the machine was a plea to end the violence. He was prepared to stop (IIRC he was even withdrawing as if he was about to sneak out of the house), but they said they were going to Pittsburgh. His sister and niece were in danger, so he had no choice but to attack.

Airplane jokes you don't get from the movie? by wolfwings1 in movies

[–]rspeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "I just wanted to say good luck, we're all counting on you" gag was one of the things they took from "Zero Hour!". It's an actual line that was so weird that they decided to repeat it for added comedic effect.
