So many of these vids are like 'oh, it's Russia'. The others are like 'oh, it's USA'.

here is a man attempting to burn an EU flag, but he cannot, because of EU regulations that stipulate such flags must be made of fire-retardant materials. https://i.imgur.com/bocQwbP.mp4

Rust Martialis posted:Would have to be titanium pipes or plastic. Anything ferromagnetic near an 11.7T magnet is Not Advised. Even though the field outside the casing is relatively weak. Hospitals generally aren't great about keeping their MRI quench systems clear because they get used so rarely and it costs a shitload to restart an MRI. Every now and then someone blows the roof off a building because there was a dead pidgeon stuck in the system.

Shut up Meg posted:I find stories of stuff like this fascinating.  quote:Manufacturers and the Department of Defense have claimed that the failure rate for each bomb is about 5%.[2] This would mean that of the 202 bomblets dropped, about 10 will not explode on impact. Landmine Action has claimed the failure rate of the BLU-97/Bs used in the Kosovo campaign was higher, between 7 and 8 percent. One of the absolute fuckers of UXO clearance is cluster munitions. Take the BLU-97/B Combined Effects Bomb for example. About the size of a soda can and painted a jolly bright yellow the unexploded munition is attractive to children and adults alike. Why is this OSHA? Because these things kill de-miners indiscriminately. Why didn't it explode when it hit the ground? Who knows! What will make it detonate? Anything! A nudge with a foot, throwing it to your friend, the flatulence of a nearby termite, anything! It's been used all over the world, even in places it "hasn't". About a month after I left the project an experienced de-miner was killed in Rwanda when one just went off as he was setting up. He wasn't touching it, just clearing the area around it.

Judging from all those cubes lying around the site, they are planning on loading dozens of cubes and have probably already loaded dozens. All without planning any way to make loading easier.

All without planning any way to make loading easier. Or having adequate capacity trucks/machines... Watching the bucket get jammed back when the excavator pushes on the block makes the little hydraulic mechanic in my brain tingle. Nothing like driving hydraulic fluid back through the pressure relief valve while at full throttle on other functions.

1000 ton crawler crane that costs more than they'd ever want to spend with no guarantee of even being able to get it down into the site.

I get that people don't want their above ground pools anymore, but why not drain it with a basic siphon? There's even a lower area to drain that (slowly) into, ffs. Why go at it with an axe?!

No they should raise it so they can push it up a ramp right into the truck... They can't lower it because there is probably infrastructure under it.

https://www.outsidethebeltway.com/mariano_rivera_relatives_die_in_his_electrified_pool/quote:The pool had been wired to discourage two pet Rottweilers from jumping in, the Daily News has learned.But 14-year-old Victor Dario Avila did not know that when he jumped in to cool off Saturday. His father, Victor Sr., 35, was killed when he leaped in to try to save his son, police said. “They didn’t know the pool was wired,” an investigator told The News. “The boy jumps in, and when his father saw him being electrocuted, he also jumps in.”
