DelphiAegis posted:If there was an oil slick on top of the waters where it sank, most likely any water they took on as part of sinking will similarly have oil on top of it. Oxygen generation on submarines is (generally) via electrolysis, which is a very hot process and could ignite the oil vapors or oil on the water the sailors are in inside the sub itself. Beaten about chemical generation, but if that ship's on the bottom they're going to have no electrical power, because their battery and/or power conversion equipment will be flooded. Flooded batteries loving suck, the seawater starts electrolyzing into H2 and O2, while the short circuited batteries start to also pump H2 and heat into the battery compartment, on a Diesel-electric sub like the Indonesian one this absolutely fucks you, since btw you just lost propulsion and electric power to hydraulics, so you have no way of controlling the ship and no indications of anything, and the battery well can get hot enough to ignite fires elsewhere onboard, your only chance of survival is to blow to the surface immediately. The "fire" section on the USS Bonefish gives a good summary of a battery fire where they lost the ship but saved almost the entire crew.

Does anyone have that picture laying around of some warning signs on a (Australian?) construction site to the effect of, "In case of emergency, call 911 and company support at XXX-XXXX. If things are ABSOLUTELY, COMPLETELY hosed, call Todd at XXX-XXXX" tia https://i.imgur.com/AF7yWmo.gifv

I stopped an OSHA today. I came home from work to find my dad proudly showing me the vanload of old corrugated asbestos roofing panels a friend had given him, and asking if I could fetch my angle grinder and cut them to size so that he could roof his shed with them. After I unsurprisingly said 'no', he said that if I didn't want to do it, could he borrow my grinder. My response was that while roofing sheet may be one of the safest forms of asbestos, it's still asbestos, and cutting it with an abrasive disk is about a 9.5 on the stupidity scale. I've managed to dodge Covid so-far, so I have no desire whatsoever to roll the dice on Asbestosis.

How do you even dispose of large sheets of this stuff? Do you get a backhoe and dig a big hole?

In Austria you are "supposed" to mix pieces of it to the regular house waste (everything except paper, glass, metall, light plastic), cause NO ONE will take that stuff.

Wiki: Asbestos can be destroyed by ultra-high-temperature incineration and plasma melting process. A process of thermal decomposition at 1,000–1,250 °C (1,800–2,300 °F) produces a mixture of non-hazardous silicon-based wastes, and at temperatures above 1,250 °C (2,300 °F) it produces silicate glass.[140] Microwave thermal treatment can be used in an industrial manufacturing process to transform asbestos and asbestos-containing waste into porcelain stoneware tiles, porous single-fired wall tiles, and ceramic bricks.[141] The combination of oxalic acid with ultrasound fully degrades chrysotile asbestos fibers.[142]

They get up to the second floor rooftops at which point the picker promptly breaks down and leave them stranded; they call maintenance who tell them as it was a weekend they would be at least six hours. My friend is a trained arborist perfectly capable of abseiling down from a picker, not to mention qualified to do so at work, but that would leave the hapless engineer stranded up there solo for the forseeable. In the end he couldn't bring himself to abandon him to his fate and they sat up there all day in the baking sun while the ground team hoisted bottled water up to them once an hour. He said the worst part was it was on a residential street so they had a peanut gallery of bored Little Britain teenagers heckling them for the duration.

In all lifts that I have used there is a way to retract the zoom even if you are left without power so at least you're not stranded at maximum height but maybe that type didn't have a hydraulic zoom. They also said that the arborist could have made it out, but stayed out of solidarity. Most of all I wonder why they didn't just call the fire department, surely they would have responded sooner than 6 hours

That last one might be a bit unfair actually. He's personally a grafter, but there were some absolute casualties on the rest of the team. Way too many old lads with busted up knees and not enough young climbers to go round so it got to be a hassle to get them to leave the ground as opposed to 'hit it with a pole saw and call it a day'.
