Regarding the “Rust” shooting.
  • I don't actually know how they do it in movies but from this one example I'm assuming it was industry standard but I could be wrong.

    Other movies might do what you said e.g. airsoft gun or fake gun, with edited sounds later

    I do find it hard to believe the industry standard is to use real guns with blanks but it may be that way. It's a lot simpler, but obviously more dangerous

    And yes guns are very loud, after a gun goes off beside you, you will have a sort of numbing in your ear for a few seconds and you can't hear anything out of it lol

  • The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won.
  • "the things that made Reddit Reddit years ago, before it turned into generic social media"

    Bingo. From a financial standpoint reddit doesn't care about how it used to be. Being generic social media is worth more money to them

    Regarding the “Rust” shooting.
  • How would a fake gun make the sounds? Guess you could add in editing afterwards but the cleanest, easiest and most realistic would always be to use a real gun with blanks I would have thought. But I'm not a movie producer, so idk

    Could also be that even if you're able to get similar quality gun shots off a fake gun, it would cost a lot more in production etc

  • Looking for advice following hitting someone’s car and leaving my details?
  • No problem.

    Given you did hit her car or scratch it or whatever, 150 pounds is about as little as you could have expected to pay. Whether she fixes the car or not doesnt really matter but I do believe she did it would not make sense to fake an invoice for that.

    She could still TRY claim off insurance but given you have written confirmation from her that she fixed it already, I doubt that will happen

  • Looking for advice following hitting someone’s car and leaving my details?
  • I am assuming you are from the US given you state prices in dollars, which may have varying prices to the UK

    For a minor scratch I can't imagine the price being 500 dollars or euros personally, I would have imagined it would be a lot less. 150 does seem a little cheap but it really depends on the extent of the damage, if its just a small scratch it could be 150. If its a decent scrape and its deep into the paintwork it will be a lot more

  • Looking for advice following hitting someone’s car and leaving my details?
  • I would imagine him having the invoice of it being fixed and her sending it to him would hold up against an insurance claim. People settle minor stuff like this outside insurance all the time and that stuff doesn't happen

  • Looking for advice following hitting someone’s car and leaving my details?
  • If I was you I would just pay the 150 pounds.

    The invoice looks pretty similar to garages because they tend to just be ran by one or two people and dont have sophisticated invoice generation. Their systems are old school and work off pen and paper, which is what your (or her) invoice was.

    Also, you could argue that even if she didnt get the work done, 150 pounds sounds about right for a slight backup/bump into another car. If she wanted to pocket the money, or possibly wait and get the car fixed at a later date, that would possibly be her right too.

    If the invoice is inflated (e.g. Its a fake invoice and a higher amount than you damaged) thats a different story. That would be fraud. But I am not sure 150 pounds is inflated. A worry about getting it done outside insurance is people will defraud you and make their mechanic produce a fake invoice, higher than the actual amount. But its hard to see that happened here given its such a small amount.

  • Anyone here play Sunday league football in the UK?

    Do you guys think its too late for me to play sunday league football even at the lowest level with some team if I am starting football at age 26?

    I haven't played football since I was a kid but I am trying to get back into it now and have joined a local sunday league team. But I feel the others are much better than me.

    And its not just because I feel that way, I honestly was messing up so many passes in training the other night. If I was the coach I would not even play myself by the way I was playing. Several times when I got passed to I tried to pass it to another teammate and just gave it straight back to the other team. In a match that just means I am a complete liability because it will lead to conceding

    Is it possible to improve at football at an older age? Because it seems like all the others in my team have played their entire lives so I have a lot of catching up to do.

    Hi guys, what 3D Printer do you recommend for a beginner?

    I am looking to buy a 3D printer which will be used in my small business size of about 20 people. We sometimes need little parts made for holding littles pieces of equipment and after seeing a similar lab to us use 3D Printing to make little holders for their antennas, we are looking at buying one ourselves.

    What can you guys recommend? So far I have seen this video which suggests the Bambulab P1P, or the Prusa mk3S+ Kit.

    I think we will most likely buy the Bambulab P1P as this guy suggests. However he did say that its not great for fixing. "Fixing or replacing parts does not appear to be anywhere near as user friendly or even possible in some cases"

    How hard is it to build the Prusa mk3S+ Kit yourself in case we decide we want to have the Prusa given it is more easily fixable? We would prefer the Bambulab as it prints faster and is slightly larger, but might not get it due to the fact its not as easy to fix stuff.

    What way did the Titan submersible implode?

    How fast did the people in it die?

    Of course once the sub filled with water they would die instantly because it would reach insane pressures (300-400 ATM or 5800 PSI)
