I just finished the book about the man-eating Siberian tiger and it has the anti-poaching taskforce guys who finally killed it going on in mat (that Russian dialect composed entirely of swearing) for like ten minutes

Extremely recommended read, by the way. There's two whole pages devoted to the tiger's last leap and the hairs on my arms stood up the entire time.

Are you in America? Because I'm perfectly willing to accept that Americans manufacture and buy jerry cans that suck poo poo, while in non-failed states they are great.

yeah ours have to suck now, because evaporating gas from jerry cans is pollution but then turning around and burning all the gas into co2 and destroying the entire earth is 'an externality'

VOCs will kill old white people today. CO2 will only start killing the brown people first and we maybe have a generation before they start killing white children in mass.

I thought I read it in this thread but I guess it must have been another, that those Home Depot buckets have lids and are one of the right kinds of plastic to use with gasoline. The poster who said this then posted a picture of someone filling up a Rubbermade tub which is not a kind of plastic to use with gasoline.

The reason they're called jerry cans is because the germans figured out a really good design and everyone else copied them.

Once you change the design so that it sucks, it's not really a jerry can any more...

The fuel cans used by British forces before they stole the German design were those rectangular cans you sometimes buy cooking oil in. Apparently they were single-use in practice because they were too flimsy to survive being returned and refilled.

The spring-loaded no-spill spouts on those cans can be disabled quite easily with a pair of pliers and a wire cutter, turning them into regular spouts that work like they always have :ssh:

A couple of years ago, two guys were killed on their first day on the job when a boiler fell on them after exploding. https://www.cnn.com/2017/04/06/us/st-louis-boiler-explosion/index.html

In one of the old iterations of the thread somebody posted a CAL-OSHA incident report about teenager who died on his first day working at a farm store because his supervisor had to go do something and told him to "hang loose" until they got back, and the kid decided this meant he should try and use a forklift to load haybales for a customer and then tipped it over going off a curb and died.

You can still get the old spout and vent kits from farm supply stores where I'm at. It's not a perfect solution, but it's there

It pre-dates the conversion to metric, and is actually one fifth of a mile. That clear it up for you.
