A digger, which cannot swim, asks a barge to carry it across a river on the barge's back. The barge hesitates, afraid of being sunken by the digger, but the digger argues that if it did that, they would both drown. The barge considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the digger. Right at the shore, the digger sinks the barge anyway, dooming them both. The sinking barge asks the digger why it sunk it despite knowing the consequence, to which the digger replies: "I couldn't help it. It's in my nature."

specifically considering it for this situation on my F-14:



that wood is integrated to the playfield, so it's not coming out to be replaced. the hole that plastic drills in to was at some point field repaired with toothpicks and glue, so that "flap" of wood is currently hanging on by a thread and under blue electrical tape so the machine can still be played. would love to use that saw to take that piece of wood off cleanly, plane down what's left and then wood glue it back, rather than the bondo job that will probably be necessary without said saw

*shrug* i dunno, it was only this one use case. i mostly just really want that overengineered little thing

My gf read the Action Park autobiography written they the owner's son, and it was awesome, really funny and loads of stories you won't hear elsewhere about the insane danger at the park. Recommend it.

Probably just want to replace the panes and keep the structure itself intact which would probably be alot harder with a wrecking ball.

As someone that's used welding equipment, it's absolutely dubbed over.

Real welding just sounds like the loudest pan of grease frying in the world.

It's anti-osha as gently caress to do that, either way.

they have the radio or whatever in series with the welder so when the arc runs across the circuit is closed and music plays.

Well duh, what I was asking is if they modulated the current to produce sound from the arc like so:

I'm fairly certain that the amount of current required to ignite the welding rod like that is a lot higher than what is happening in that (still really dangerous) demonstration.

The dude in the video clip is wearing insulating clothes and welding gloves, but forgot to protect his face so he probably got a really good burn on his face from doing that stunt.

Poor thing's bottom jaw is hosed up looks to be missing most of one side and half the other. It probably can't feed itself and has been tamed enough that it's trying to get fed not actually attacking.

Croc life seems hosed up, they're just constantly shedding bits. Saw this nature docu where a croc loses a bit of his jaw in a dominance fight.

It's been a surprise to me to find out how many dangerous animals are just big loving dogs when they're not trying to kill you.

For example, I was talking to one of the rhino keepers last time I went to the zoo. Now rhinos in general aren't as dangerous as people think; they mostly only charge and murder people when they're scared. But, it turns out, rhinos that have been in contact with humans (like their keepers) long enough to get to know them are really like big dogs - to the point that on chilly days when the rhino wasn't allowed out into the outside exhibit, he would wait at the gate for the keepers to arrive and try to get them to play with him all day while they did their job. The keeper even made the "big dog" comparison himself, saying it was like trying to do work at home while your dog wants your attention.

tl;dr: rhinos are bros
