Would that not require you yourself being sacked as well?

Those responsible for the sacking can be sacked too, don't forget. :yes:

Ah, looks like that cloud is away now. But I should have a few minutes on video.

(I think we need a random weather thread)

Looks more like a vertically rotating shelf cloud in that video. Can easily be mistaken for a wall cloud, but exists at the front of a thunderstorm, while wall clouds are near the end of the thunderstorm.

Wall clouds also must not rotate, but if they rotate (usually horizontally), they are a pretty strong sign of imminent tornado formation.

Like it looks today, there had been no tornados at all in Germany yesterday.

Here is an explanation of the differences:

This article is a welcome surprise.

I saw the original news headlines of "chickens smarter than young children" and the others. I'm surprised someone actually responded and formed a non-sensationalist news story. I can't say this one will reach nearly as far, but at least it was done and it's honest.

Ah, I would imagine that went wonky with the rendering a bit? Ive never tried anything like that, but it sounds like the sort of thing that would cause headaches.

I guess that means that your vessel technically has a thruster burning photons for reaction mass? :lol:

Okay, here's the image, finally.

The beams are 1 by 10 000 metres.

Reminds me of the talk Randall Munroe gave somewhere, where he talked about how he worked:
Figuring out how long you need for a task, starting at the latest point possible but you have to start because otherwise you won't get it finished.

Collected my new printer (HP OfficeJet 6700 Premium) from the local post office. While as heavy as expected (A small packet), it surprisingly is slightly smaller unpacked than feared. Fits at the Plan A location, though I must admit now, it isn't the best spot for a printer. You often walk past the paper tray that way.

Rig the paper tray just right, and you've got yourself a Verstehen Sie Spass episode right there.

No, better not :lol:

But I will look for a better table or cabinet for this one, the 20 year old one I now is a bit "dynamic"... it shakes while printing like it is Richter Scale 9...

"Near or at total destruction - severe damage or collapse to all buildings. Damage and shaking extends to distant locations. Permanent changes in ground topography. Death toll usually over 1,000,000."

Your printer changes topography, destroys your entire city and kills millions?

Great metaphore :thumbup:

EDIT: Until I quoted I cannot see anything, and links me to download a .webp. What's this?

 

[SolarLiner]

Using Chrome it works perfectly. What browser are you using?

Yes. And I need more power!

Try to get a Magrathean Planet Printer. That ought to shake some worlds.
