My fiancée called me yesterday and said "I have a question... this store has one portal gun left" and I yelled "BUY IT!" by robinwin gaming

Wait a minute...

That's not a question at all!

Chinese steel...1/3 of the welds defective on first check.

Sigh. I drive over the old one all the time. The new one scares me. Still looks sweet though.

Not sure, I just assumed it had to do with funding.

Yep! Walnut Creek and Clayton have them a few places too.

Concord

It's pretty impressive. I feel sort of proud every time I walk by them.

Our city just got them at all the schools as well.

They're great because they shade the cars and cover a pretty large area. You can hear the humming when near them, so something's definitely going on :)

I live in the Bay Area so I guess it's pretty viable here, maybe not so much other places.

NSFW decorative window bas relief - Prague [OC] [1024x683] by philmarredditin ArchitecturePorn

[–]dirtyfries 18 points19 points ago

I don't think this needs to be considered NSFW. Any place that would deem it as such makes me sad.

Also, very cool window. :)

Got to meet you at the Adult Expo Vegas 2011. You were by far the friendliest and most polite star there. Our picture also turned out ridiculously cute.

I read your Twitter for good literature picks. Keep em comin'.

Google Maps Street View is in Oakland! by AnGhostin Pitt

[–]dirtyfries 10 points11 points ago

Good! Pittsburgh needs an update. I have an ex-coworker who died two years ago. On street view his car is still in the parking lot at our office in South Side. Really sad.

Getty Center, Los Angeles, CA by Richard Meier [500x646] by lastoftheyagahein ArchitecturePorn

[–]dirtyfries 0 points1 point ago

That's well and all, but just letting you know...it's in no way an awful building. It actually belongs in this subreddit.

That being said...yeah, there's definitely some crap floating around.

It's not Photoshopped. It looks just like that. The whole place is designed to be eye-pleasing. Has some pretty sick views off the edge of the mountain too.

I don't doubt there was some post work, but that's pretty dead on what it looks like.

I'm most curious about how insurance will be handled once this takes off. Who's at fault, etc.

Clearly we should just built cars out of chrome.

WW2 Explosive Ordnance Rail Revetment - Port Chicago, CA [OC] [3648x2736] by dirtyfriesin InfrastructurePorn

[–]dirtyfries[S] 30 points31 points ago

For those not familiar, the way this works is rail cars roll in loaded with explosives, and they're unloaded into concrete magazines located in the channel.

The channel is designed so that if there's an accident, the explosion from the rail car is mostly directed upwards and not into the surrounding area.

This particular example is from Port Chicago, CA, a WW2 ordnance transfer station that suffered a massive explosion in 1944. Not far (but not photographed due to security) are revetments that were used in the Cold War for nuclear weapons transfer (essentially larger, more concrete, large numbers....and probably useless).
