[TOMT][Internet Promo Video][2010s] A 360 degree, slow motion video for a printer company.

This is difficult to explain.

The video features a camera attached to a rig that spins it in a circle, with the camera facing towards the centre.

In the centre is an audio speaker facing upwards, covered by a plastic sheet that's been covered with printer ink/paint.

The camera is spun at incredibly high speed and records slow-motion footage of the ink being sprayed into the air as a blast of noise is sent through the speaker.

The resulting footage is mesmerising blobs and drops of colour flying past and into each other as they spin in a hypnotic way.

The camera setup is basically identical to this video by Macro Room, except the production quality was significantly higher, and the paint experiment is identical to this one by the Slo Mo Guys.

Imagine those two mashed together.

I remember it being created to promote a new range of printers, hence the use of coloured inks, but I may be wrong. i also can't narrow down a date other than saying I think it was at least pre 2020.

The reason I say Internet Video as opposed to just Youtube video, is that I can't find it anywhere on YT, and it's possible that it was hosted on Vimeo, which is now locked behind an age verification process I refuse to submit to, and can't be bothered to bypass.

Question about the order of operations in a euthanasia procedure.

A few years ago I had to get my dog put to sleep, which required two injections: One to sedated him, and then a second to put him to sleep.

So the vet inserted an IV and used it to inject the sedative, which then took a few minutes to take effect.

I expected she would then use the same IV to administer the second injection, but she didn't. She inserted a second IV line, which caused my dog to stir from being almost completely at rest. As a result, he was more awake than he had been, and made eye contact with me as he passed on.

That's always haunted me a little, and now that my other dog might need to be put down, I was wondering if this was standard procedure, or if it would be reasonable to ask the vet to either use a single IV, or at least insert both lines at once, so that he's as comfortable as possible when he passes.

I feel like an ass, questioning a medical professional, but it's my dog. He's my family.

First attempt at adding LEDs to a kit. Really brings it to life.

Kit is the Flame Toys Furai Optimus Prime IDW version.

I'm kind of irritated there's no way to filter these in the app, as I'm sometimes in the mood for one and have to go hunting randomly through the archive.

The only currated lists are in the Packs, which don't unlock if you have a subscription, and I refuse to pay twice for something.

So, without giving anything away, are there any lists of rebus or themed puzzles?
