  • Met a friend of a friend some months ago who customised electrical vehicles of all kinds, a battery like this blew up while he and his best friend were close to it. His friend died and he got burned real bad, the left side of his body is badly scarred and he lost fingers, hearing, most of his vision and other stuff on that side.
    We sat and talked for most of the night and after that I have a whole new “respect” for batteries. My mom uses an e-bike daily and I’ve made real sure she is aware of the possible danger. She used to store and charge the battery close to the door of her apartment, now it’s in a battery safety bag in one of the closets where it wouldn’t be in the way of getting out if something happens.
    Fucking scary stuff.




  • Yes, but less than most based on this thread. Been on long term sick leave for 15 years so I’ve had, have and will continue to have a ton of time to play games but not as much money as most so I only buy ones I really want and mostly play them immediately. But had humblebundle choice for some years and got some bundles outside of that so got some random games I never touched. Gave away most keys I didn’t want to friends and random people online, absolutely worth it just to make others happy.
