Delta Echo posted:I might have mentioned this before... gas cylinders aren't hollow, and have a foam-type filling that prevents gas from escaping catastrophically. Even if the shell of the canister is breached, the gas will leak slow enough to prevent or prolong an explosion. It's possible for the canister to become hot enough to fail all at once, but that's with steady exposure to flames, and usually next to other burning canisters. Heating a canister until it bursts is more dangerous than cutting it with a torch. This is incorrect. The only commonly-encountered tanks that have a filling that I'm aware of are acetylene tanks, and that's only because acetylene is so uniquely unstable and has such weird storage requirements (dissolved in acetone, instead of liquefied under pressure or just very highly compressed as a gas). And the foam in an acetylene tank does nothing to slow a leak, it just prevents the spontaneous explosions acetylene pressurized above 20 PSI is subject to from propagating. Trust me, if you breach any gas tank, the contents ARE going to exit as quickly and violently as physics will permit. Compressed oxygen tanks are regarded as being one cylinder-valve-damaging fall away from turning into a torpedo for a reason. Cutting through a propane tank with a cutting torch can and has caused serious accidents in the past. The PROPER way to cut through a propane tank is to open all the valves completely to relieve any remaining pressure, entirely remove the valve so the tank is open to the atmosphere, flush it with nitrogen (preferable) or flush/fill with water (if you don't have nitrogen) and then do the cut with a cutoff disk or other aggressive blind cutting tool instead of a torch. Even if the tank is fully purged, a torch can burn improperly or sputter/go out if the equipment is shoddy or the operator doesn't know what they're doing, which can fill the tank body with unburned and potentially explosive air/fuel mixture in just a few seconds.

IRT pressure cooker chat: modern pressure cookers are pretty freaking safe and bad things only tend to happen when theyre being tampered with, which is almost exclusively people using them for stills. In particular, knocking out the fusible safety burst discs and using the resulting ready-made ~1/4" access port as the takeoff for the copper condenser tube, which then gets blocked when people try distilling grape must or whatever and a seed lodges up in the condenser tube.

I assume that the problem was that the pizza was thawed when they put it in, or the oven was not set properly. Either way, that pizza is still edible. Scrape it off the rack.

family lore still recalls in whispers the time a relation blew out all the windows at the back of the house when their pressure cooker still ruptured and flung twisted aluminium clear into the neighbour's back yard. the neighbours silence was purchased with the brandy collected prior to the death of the pressure cooker

Fresh dough base put in on the rack on the assumption it would cook like a normal store-bought pizza? Yawgmoth posted:But doesn't that end up making the pizza crust all gross and wet? I've never had any trouble with frozen pizzas directly on the rack since I always go freezer -> oven in under a minute. Baking paper lets the underside cook nicely. Aluminium foil or a tray will reflect heat away from the base, paper is about as crispy as using a bare rack, but easier to clean up.

Same reason that the big LN2 tanks are always kept chained to a large immovable object; the record at PSU for if one falls and breaks off the regulator is three interior concrete walls. Here's a fun sequence from Texas A&M, where some dumbass "repaired" a tank by removing the rupture disk and the safety relief valve and replacing them with welded plugs.

I saw a tank of helium get the valve clipped off as it was being loaded in a work truck. It tore through the side of the truck and the gate shack across the parking lot, before slamming into the owner's Mercedes that was just pulling in.

Death at the construction of the new Vikings Stadium this morning. http://www.startribune.com/1-trapped-rescue-underway-on-roof-of-new-vikings-stadium/322946061/ quote:The contractor has received nine worksite citations in connection with six inspections since 2010 for what OSHA considered serious violations, according to agency records. Total fines for all nine citations totaled more than $12,500. $12,500 seems a tad low for 9 "serious" violations.

I didn't cut it, and I only recall it was a predisposal measure. I thought it was all combustible tanks that had the foam filling, obviously. Thanks for clearing things up.

If you accidentally murder people by being negligent and creating a hazardous workplace, that's OSHA. If you intentionally murder people by killing them, that's not OSHA. Even if they were working at the time.

Do OSHA regulations cover exposing people to other people that might well kill them, a la "sending cops to hang out unarmed in secluded rooms with violent prisoners"? It's certainly workplace health/safety, but it seems kind of outside what they typically cover.

If that were the case, it would probably be an OSHA violation to have police officers engage with any kind of violent people in the first place.

Powered Descent posted:A friend of mine recently moved, and was doing the usual "try to get my security deposit back" thorough cleaning of the old place. Upon moving the fridge to get at the dust bunnies behind it, she made a discovery: That's... pretty impressive. My dad visited a friend from church who was having intermittent electrical problems - found that the backstabbed receptacles were severely heat damaged - they basically fell apart in his hands as he took them out of the outlet. He told them that they had absolutely no idea how lucky they were - this was basically a ticking time bomb that was going to burn down their home.
