Not the kind of housing market crash the people were hoping for.

[–] numbermess@fedia.io 4 points 2 hours ago

πŸ‘ˆ there's yer problem

Looks like a fancy mixing board in a recording studio

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 69 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

It's never done that before.

[–] decolo@piefed.social 41 points 10 hours ago (2 children)
[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 17 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 7 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

It's ok, it's out of the environment.

[–] TIEPilot@lemmy.world 21 points 10 hours ago (1 children)
[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 15 minutes ago

That's why you don't build a million of them.

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 16 points 10 hours ago

They got pills for that these days

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 39 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

That thing is in shockingly good shape

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 46 minutes ago

Scale is right, too. Just need to fix the rotation.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe they build them laying flat like that and then get a bunch of Amish guy to raise it with poles?

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk 3 points 2 hours ago

I know they have a reputation as manual labourers but I feel like you're being unfair to the Poles.

[–] AgentSeven@lemmy.zip 35 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (2 children)

I know, right? They must have built it really solidly. Except for the whole falling down bit.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 9 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

seems like they should have driven in some pylons before the foundation, of course, the REAL worry now is what about all those other ones?

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 9 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

You must build additional pylons.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 hours ago

That's how it got knocked over, they built pylons, the damned Protoss moved in

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I mean since it's a small percentage of ones that fall down. And this one's already falling down and taking up that percentage. I wouldn't even worry about the other ones.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 hours ago

I am absolutely certain that's what the paperwork says :)

[–] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 7 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

forgot foundations are a thing apparently.

[–] EastofEdson@piefed.ca 1 points 2 hours ago

That's a different department.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 44 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

This is intentional they build them on the ground then pull them up. Much less crane fees

Much like the Amish.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 45 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

It fucken WIMDY

[–] justlemmyin@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Hashtag novfxnolan shot that rolling buildings shot on this set.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 31 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

What did that mean for the remaining instances of the same building? I imagine they were all built to the same high quality China is known for.

[–] cloudpersona@lemmy.zip 60 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

Actually this one wasn’t a case of bad construction quality, but bad oversight on surrounding projects. They compromised the foundation by digging out a bunch of earth next to it for another project.

[–] turtlesareneat@piefed.ca 38 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

In that case, the building might actually be built to a very high quality? I've never seen a building do that. I would think it'd save lives.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

Like those 1960 mercedes that'd survive a car crash, but people were splattered around inside.

Also, the building looks like plastic, lol.

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 27 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Right? I'm genuinely impressed it stayed in one piece. It looks like most of the windows are still intact too!

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 35 points 10 hours ago

[–] InGodWeThrust@quokk.au 18 points 10 hours ago

I think the oversight must clearly have been someone holding the blueprints sideways while they were constructing it

[–] DeadDigger@lemmy.zip 14 points 10 hours ago

I mean given that the building still looks fine and did not just smash to rubble boy is that constructed well

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 15 points 10 hours ago

It’s like they purposely spaces the buildings apart in such a way that they avoid a domino effect if one falls down like that.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 20 points 11 hours ago

The Amish will be there shortly to raise it.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 15 points 11 hours ago

Foundation game on point.

Billionaire-class mass graves during covid?

Living up to your name.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 9 points 11 hours ago

something is fundamentally wrong here

[–] mrfriki@lemmy.world 7 points 11 hours ago

Rest in piece.

[–] rugburn@fedinsfw.app 8 points 11 hours ago

They're so cute when they're sleeping
