KoRMaK posted:Yea im not watching that with the info you gave and no followup that says "the child didnt die or wasnt seriously maimed for life" Fragment hit the girl in the head. She screams a lot. Was released from the hospital the same night. Officer friendly was fired and I am sure was hired by another department so had no real repercussions.

5th Avenue in NYC just blew the gently caress up: Fairly catastrophic steam pipe explosion. quote:"This [steam pipe] was installed in 1932, so there may possibly be the presence of asbestos," Nigro said. "Samples have been taken and we're awaiting lab results of those samples, but we are operating as if those samples will come back positive." Yeah, I'd say that's probably a safe bet.

haveblue posted:If we allow that these things all have level 4+ autopilots, wouldn't they be able to give orders directly to the computer? Not without massive infrastructure upgrades to all the airports. The only way that a controller has of communicating with an airplane is over the voice radio or by flashing a colored light at it. You aren't going to be able to get an autopilot computer to reliably understand "follow the Bonanza at your one o'clock, report when over the radio towers, caution for coast guard helicopter doing exercises halfway between the bridge and the shoreline", transmitted rapidly across a noisy analog radio channel in clipped tones, at any point in the near future. Also, current VFR regulations put the entire see-and-avoid responsibility on the pilot. The tower doesn't give specific instructions, just warnings about traffic they notice in your area. If a Tesla can't even reliably see a semi trailer jackknifed across the road at 60 miles an hour, there's absolutely no way you can expect similar technology to spot a Piper Cub two miles away closing with you at 200+ mph. So since the tower can't provide command guidance to your plane, and the plane itself can't be expected to sort it out, we're back to needing a fully trained and licensed pilot.

Like most things, heating is more efficient when you do it in a central location and pipe it out to the users rather than making it on the spot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_heating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City_steam_system

Volcott posted:Why does new york need steam, anyway? I know they need liquid nitrogen because of telephones. Others covered the district heating, but there are plenty of cities that do this. Cleveland has steam and chilled water in the downtown area. Chicago doesn't have steam, but they do have chilled water. Universities are another pretty common area with steam tunnels running to all of their buildings.

This is one of those cases that in a sitcom the union would have charts and specialists and experts and the defense's entire case would the lawyer standing up, saying "He shot a little girl." and then sitting down, and the case would be thrown out of court. This is not a sitcom so I hope that department has good insurance!

Also he's already started firing rounds at the police and in danger of hitting civilians with his bullets/car. That poo poo gets you put down HARD by any means necessary.
