think I'm gonna crosspost myself from ask/tell since this post is probably most appropriately located itt. describing "penguin digesters" used on the Macquarie Islands, originally invented for processing whale blubber you pack birds and seals into these tanks:  then pump them full of steam and skim the oil off from the resulting slurry. I don't think anyone ate the end product or anything, instead it was used in the industrial manufacture of twine. the island still has a layer of bone visible in the sand from the couple decades when they were able to melt down up to 3500 penguins a day. At times when coal was short they even burned penguins to run the boilers.   the penguin harvest continued until a Rothschild who was an obsessive birder and ornithologist noticed and got really mad and complained to the authorities in New Zealand and got them to stop.

The Macquarie Island episode of the Dollop is well worth a listen. That whole thing was also pretty prescient in its denial of the environmental ramifications from rendering down seals and penguins wholesale. They claimed that the native animal populations were actually increasing. Hollandia has issued a correction as of 00:57 on Sep 30, 2019 |

Mr.Pibbleton posted:Why is it that the vast majority of public bathrooms in the US have a handle you have to pull in order to leave, instead of being able to push it open? The answer to most "why are doors that way in a public building" questions is usually "fire codes" or "handicap accessibility" or in this case I think a mixture of both.

Foxrunsecurity posted:Fire code, in most cases other than machinery or refrigeration rooms open doors should not obstruct hallways. Also the reason most doors these days have handles rather than knobs is because it's very hard to use a knob with a manipulator if you don't have a hand so they're generally not considered ADA-compliant. Building codes are neat and I like them cuz I'm a weirdo.

Public bathrooms without automatic doors should always have one of those foot hooks, so you can pull open the door with your foot.

Is this the first time you're finding out Charles Entertainment Cheese's full name? Because if so I have another fun fact: his backstory is that he's an orphan who doesn't know his own birthday, so he tries to quell the inner pain by celebrating every other kid's birthday
