i think my favourite are the replies "buh buh buh the handles are supposed to expose themselves if the airbags trigger" like, that's going to work reliably after a collision, and also, like it matters at all because they're still not mechanical linkages to the door mechanism

Alligators were less of a nuisance than muscovy ducks and woodpeckers, the reptiles sort of had an understanding with the neighborhood - stay out of the pond, we'll stay out of your yards. Those ducks with their acid poo poo that would strip the sealing/paint off your driveway, or the woodpeckers that would start trying to drill through an aluminum downspout outside your window at the loving crack of dawn? Nope.

ol qwerty bastard posted:musk wanted the lunar lander game as an easter egg on the touchscreen but he typoed and missed a 1 when telling the engineers to include an apollo 11 simulator Emergency procedures called for the senior pilot, occupying the center couch, to unlatch and remove the hatch while retaining his harness buckled. A number of witnesses who observed the television picture of the command module hatch window discerned motion that suggested that the senior pilot was reaching for the inner hatch handle. The senior pilot's harness buckle was found unopened after the fire, indicating that he initiated the standard hatch-opening procedure. Data from the Guidance and Navigation System indicated considerable activity within the command module after the fire was discovered. This activity was consistent with movement of the crew prompted by proximity of the fire or with the undertaking of standard emergency egress procedures. Personnel located on adjustable level 8 adjacent to the command module responded to the report of the fire. The pad leader ordered crew egress procedures to be started and technicians started toward the White Room which surrounded the hatch and into which the crew would step upon egress. Then, at 23:31:19 GMT, the command module ruptured. All transmission of voice and data from the spacecraft terminated by 23:31:22.4 GMT, three seconds after rupture. Witnesses monitoring the television showing the hatch window report that flames spread from the left to the right side of the command module and shordy thereafter covered the entire visible area. Flames and gases flowed rapidly out of the ruptured area, spreading flames into the space between the command module pressure vessel and heat shield through access hatches and into levels A-8 and A-7 of the service structure. These flames ignited combustibles, endangered pad personnel, and impeded rescue efforts. The burst of fire, together with the sounds of rupture, caused several pad personnel to believe that the command module had exploded or was about to explode.

like they saw the fire and 3 seconds later their radios cut. all we know for sure after that is the capsule was shaking around a bit as they ostensibly tried to put out the flames

this is still up my rear end so I want to spell it out: let's say someone is in a crashed tesla model 3 and the doors will not open from inside. as an emergency responder, you have buzz saws, jaws of life etc. but there is a 500v battery inside the car and you don't want your tools electrocuting you to disconnect the main battery in an emergency, there is a small access port on the front bumper. you must pop this off with a screwdriver and fish out two leads, then connect a 12v battery to them. This will power and open the frunk, but you're not done. now you need to know to prize up a trim panel inside to expose the emergency battery cutoff. once you've done this you can cut the power and begin destructive rescue of the passengers. if the main battery catches fire, you have to call off your rescue. if the front end is damaged or otherwise won't open, there is another spot in the back passenger side where you can cut with a buzzsaw and maybe disconnect the battery if your aim was lucky. There is a legend that shows you where it is, but it is only visible if the rear hatch is open. otherwise you have to know exactly where it is, and since you can't ~see~ the cable you might miss it or it could short out and weld back together while you are trying to open the vehicle. we are going to see more people die in tesla fires.

Silver Alicorn posted:Jesus it helps if he's involved, yes. other companies do use a similar setup as the Tesla thing with a disconnect in the front and a cut point on the body. it is just that BMW, Ford, Toyota, or Audi is not going to gently caress up "airbag deployment fires the pyrotechnic battery disconnect" there are little details that are better about those systems too. you need a beefy wire cutter to disable the Tesla even using the front disconnect because the disconnect is a loop of large wire that you have to cut. the BMW setup is a switch held closed by a post that can simply be yanked free to disconnect the battery. BMW even includes a hole in the switch that allows for lock-out-tag-out.

Nobody is saying don't protect it, but by the same logic, someone can pop your hood anytime and cut your battery cables. Silver Alicorn posted:put it under the hood, but not behind 3 layers of bulkhead This. You can protect it with a simple cover, if someone is already going to that level to sabotage your car, then they aren't stopping there.
