Brute Squad posted:GiP finds a treasure. That house is a CO deathtrap based on the soot lines everywhere. Those lines are where gas & fireplace soot are condensing on the colder edges of the framing and are an indicator of either a cracked heat exchanger, poor fireplace ventilation/improper configuration of gas fireplace logs , an excessive use of scented candles/plug-ins, or a combination of all of the above.

Just to make sure everyone knows why I posted the first picture - besides the electrical nightmare - those are wet cells that are being overcharged. This generates hydrogen. And it's obvious the batteries aren't vented properly. If the liquid in the batteries is contaminated, say because some dumbass used tap/well water, they could also be generating chlorine gas.

 that is amazing. For once the zestimate ($18k) is more accurate than the listing amount ($100k, then $85k.)I feel like the CO is suppressing the ability of the H to explode by displacing all of the oxygen and occupants.

Goon friend and I once met his mom at a bar and restaurant in the middle of gently caress nowhere Montana where the bathroom not only had carpet, but it was also on the walls up to waist height. You had to duck under a mounted elk head to get into it.

There's an Italian (I think) colour movie from the 60s (I think) where a dude goes to a house party and one wall in the lounge is basically carpeted and I really a) want a wall like that and b) want to see the movie again.

SENSUAL DAD KISS posted:Are you sure you're not thinking of the 1968 movie The Party with Peter Sellers? Yes. Also, the whole movie isn't about a guy going to a party, he just goes... places and one of them is a house party. Google is useless. "That movie with the girl who looks like Amy Adams" works just fine but not "That movie where a guy goes to a house party and there's a cool wall" does gently caress-all. (Turns out it was Amy Adams in that movie anyway which is correct because she totally looks like herself.) e: Jesus gently caress I'd forgotten Van Wilder movies existed but now thanks to Google I remember them again

"foundations a few metres deep" into clay and soil. Should have pulled them all down immediately. "Yes, let the next generation worry about it when all the buildings fall over and kill countless people."

H110Hawk posted:I feel like the CO is suppressing the ability of the H to explode by displacing all of the oxygen and occupants. I feel the need to point out that carbon monoxide is a very flammable gas; it's a primary combustible component in "wood gas." It doesn't kill by displacing oxygen; it kills because it's better at grabbing hemoglobin than oxygen is, so even when there's plenty of oxygen in the room, the CO is bound super tight to your red blood cells and you suffocate anyway.

On the one hand a sealed container of just CO and H wouldn't go boom because CO is not an oxidizer Otoh yeah it's not gonna displace oxygen in a room and it may makes everything worse there

It's a good thing that Colorado air is so thin, the lack of oxygen prevents the mixture of CO and H2 from being explosive!

In a similar vein. when people talk about napalm or flamethrowers "sucking all the oxygen" out of a room/cave/bunker/whatever, what actually happens is that all that burning oil produces a shitload of carbon monoxide, and that kills more people than the direct flames do.

Also this is the thing behind the old-timey suicide by sticking your head into the oven. The wood gas and the "town gas" produced from coal both contain a lot of carbon monoxide. Gas wasn't always just a nice to have commodity when you have connection to a natural gas network, it was an important power distribution method before it was feasible to do everything with electricity.
