I’ve also heard that in Alan Rickman’s final scene, the director called for the release of his harness early (as in hitting the quick release on the 1 of a 3-count). As a result, the look of fear on Alan Rickman’s face is genuine. From Rickman’s perspective, the stunt initiated unexpectedly.
If true, another bit of realism appears right there on Rickman’s shocked face.
Hell, I kind of want a corner bed with two headboards now.
I think I’ve found my spirit animal.
Reads as rather blantant satire to me. Perhaps you’re the weird one weirdy.
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally… bitches.
I merely propose that the original claim that ‘tailgater’s are idiots’ is only half the truth and it ignores that more often than not, both parties involved are being idiots.
Folk on the receiving end of the tailgating treatment often seem to not know about or care to respect their local laws on remaining L/R, except to pass. They appear to be ignorant of laws requiring one to pull over and allow traffic to pass if it impedes >N vehicles.
Does it excuse tailgating? No, of course not. But it certainly explains the cause of the frustration and anger that leads to it for other drivers who do care about such laws.
It may be your opinion that someone else is going ‘too fast’ but unless you’re an officer of the law, that’s not really your job to enforce. If someone wants to find out the hard way how sharp the bend is up ahead, I say let them.
Tailgaters are clearly giving off an unwritten signal for ‘you’re in my way’ and want to engage you in their risky behavior. I’m inclined to let them continue doing so in front of me rather than behind. More often than not however, I see tailgating escalate to brake checking, road rage, and two idiots clinging onto their senses of righteous indignation.
Just move over.
I forgive you
It’s just what comes to mind when people mention tailgater’s.
I agree that tailgating is unsafe and one could view the behavior as idiodic but there’s usually a reason it’s happening… to signal to you to move the fuck over.
If you are camping in the passing lane of a highway/freeway - I argue you are just as much of an idiot.
Ya, I don’t believe you can completely avoid it. I’m with you though, reduce the use of it in the kitchen and with food wherever possible.
Not only do I avoid plastic where heat is invloved but I also try and avoid plastic in places where mechanical friction or cutting is involved. Using steel mixing bowls and wooden cutting boards are two big ones for me to avoid adding bits of plastic to my food.
They were referred to as DTA’s - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_television_adapter
You’ll still require a means of amplifying and broadcasting the converted signal if you need true OTA but this gets you an analog RF signal (NTSC in the US) from a DTV broadcast.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you could take the output of the DTA and feed it to signal booster/amplifier with an antenna on the output and get short range OTA broadcast. Just know your laws on allowed output power.
That coax output you mention contains the OTA signal, but yes, you’d likely need to amplify it within the limits of your local laws to broadcast it any usable distance.
Plenty of those exist. They were given out like mad when the analog to digital switch was happening. Little boxes that would convert digital TV signals to analog for viewing on old TV’s.
Shouldn’t a Pixel that new support wireless charging? I’m surprised at how many people still rely on plugging their phones in to charge them these days. At the very least, it’s a workaround for a broken port.
Not really unprompted and likely in relation to Trump’s recent statements that the US would restart nuclear weapon tests.
1st degree doesn’t mean premeditated, it means to the highest degree. A murder charge typically implies premeditation whereas manslaughter implies recklessness.
1st degree manslaughter sounds right to me, killing someone accidentally through extreme recklessness in this case.
