what if you fail to compile and you get errorsdave holbon said:I live in London. No snow has fallen here this year as far as I know that would compile into a snowball.
I was gonna say that,should have had more sense than to throw it near a road_kC_ said:uhh what kind of snowball would smash a car window??
i guess shes lucky it didnt hit her freind, as it would of probably killed her
The risks of that are quite small. Not many bugs in the winter you know.FishBoy said:what if you fail to compile and you get errors
hahahaha true trueZedric said:Usually you'd compile tarballs, but I suppose snowballs work too.

well maybe they had an updated rock definition in the snowballLeeJend said:Bogus story.
When we were kids the only way to crack a car window was to put a rock in the center of the snowball. And then it's still near impossible to crack the tempered safety glass used in windshields. Even an ice core snowball wouldn't have a chance at breaking a windshield. (Bloodying a face, yes. Putting out an eye, yes. Windshield, never. We tried...) Yes, it was a tough neighborhood.
In the story it doesn't mention windshield .. just says window which makes me believe one of the side windows which probably could be broken with an ice/snow ball.Then it flew on to smash the window of a passing car...
oh well let's assume it's the windshield if that's what everyone wantsXie said:In the story it doesn't mention windshield .. just says window which makes me believe one of the side windows which probably could be broken with an ice/snow ball.
when the hooligans start studying angle of velocity, you know thiw was a tough neighborhood.LeeJend said:Same glass specification on all the windows. We usually aimed for the side windows. Being in front of a pissed off motorist was a bad idea in Philadelphia.
Besides any hit on a side window will be a glancing blow (less force transfered) and wouldn't have the added velocity of the vehicle to increase the impact energy.
Bogus story.
It can happen,was a bus driver nearly blinded here after some moron threw a snowball and smashed the window.He needed 32 stitches :speechless:LeeJend said:Bogus story.

awww hahaha get a crowbar next time and chase him backMastershakes said:Rocks, LOL
Grade 11, age 16. we lobbed ice balls into the middle of a busy street. glass was broken several times. our trick was to hide our iceballs in a deep freezer in our student union room. our intention was to get them into 'open' side windows. we didn't really care bout breakage.
sadly, we had to stop after some guy decided to chase us with a crowbar. After that we just didn't feel motivated.
