Nenonen posted:It took me a while to register that the gyroauto's not just any car, it's a Reliant Robin. Is there some kind of "make Robin even more unsafe" contest? They're cheap, light, nobody likes them, and they're already unsafe so it's a good base vehicle for screwing around.

The original picture (which I do not have on hand) reveals that the shelf after that one is named Life, and has stuff like fertilizer.

Nah, he drove a mini - much squarer and with a normal number of wheels. (Tiny wheels out in the corners, but still.)

The Wiggly Wizard posted:I found a volleyball equivalent of that lovely factory. Check out 1:00 with that massive fly wheel and the worker keeping his hands inside the press as he engages it. I guess that guy doesn’t make too many mistakes stamping out the pieces for the volleyball because he still has all his fingers. It’s an awful lot of sewing work to make each ball, I can’t think of a better way because I assume cheap machine sewing may risk piercing the bladder hut there must be something. One more sports ball being made in poor conditions, not too many machinery dangers in this one but my back is screaming from the way they’re sitting and sewing all day. Making cricket balls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TChdxmcUfto The scissors being used at 0:53 look like the cheap ones I bought 10 pairs of, just to have a pair of scissors when I needed them (one in the desk drawer, kitchen, laundry, etc.). They’re not bad for what they are but didn’t expect to see them being used here.

I've seen so many "X done traditional way!" videos that are just people sitting on the ground and hunching over in what looks like a brutal posture. It feels like a simple stool and table would make a huge difference in ergonomics, and like, those are not hard to make. I don't understand how so much work still happens on the literal ground.

It must be fine for them. They're poor, but not "can't afford something to sit on poor". I mean, even in ultra-modern and prosperous societies like Japan, most traditional craftsmen work is still done sitting on the floor. These cultures have been doing fine craftsman work for thousands of years, the floor obviously works for them.

Kenning posted:It feels like a simple stool and table would make a huge difference in ergonomics, and like, those are not hard to make. In America they'd give you the table but not the stool, expect you to stand on concrete all day, then blame you for your injuries caused by leaning over a table and standing on concrete immobile all day. Sitting means you're lazy, you see. I once worked at a place that paid more than lip-service for ergonomics and holy poo poo, when we complained they took it seriously! The job required lifting not that heavy of loads, maybe 45lbs at most. They engineered a jib crane with a tilt mechanism to dump the load. The loads lifted by the jib crane dumped onto the "table" required a 6" lift into the machine, a 6" drop out of the machine, and another 6" lift into the next machine. So...they welded a 6" lift to the tables. After that you just had to slide tubs and baskets around rather than constantly lifting them. The sandblast cabinet was designed for somebody like 6" shorter than me so I removed the standing platform when I used it. Zero complaints even from my micromanager. Even that dumbass recent MBA grad knew trying to "bust" me for that would cause him a lot of poo poo and make what I was doing officially acceptable.

Mr. Nice! posted:I had to go rewatch that entire bit again and it's great. I also love that David Lee Roth recorded a line for the song. There's speculation as to whether or not he played the monk that said it (i think it's him) but it is 100% him saying the line regardless. ("Who knows Torq, you might win a buck!") lol I thought the same for ages, but I did a bit more digging and picked through the 'uncredited' roles on the IMDB page, and: Stan Mazin ... Dancer (uncredited)  https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0563306/ yep that's a guy who could definitely pass as DLR in his younger days; wish it had been DLR but the mystery is solved for me at least.

NoneMoreNegative posted:lol I thought the same for ages, but I did a bit more digging and picked through the 'uncredited' roles on the IMDB page, and: Yeah DLR is not the actor, but I still think he recorded the line for the song. It sounds just like him, and none of the dancers there are actually singing. Van Halen people in general did a few things off credits like that such as Eddie recording a solo for Michael Jackson’s Beat It and not getting acknowledged until years later.

They’re not bad for what they are but didn’t expect to see them being used here. Huh, those look very familiar.  That's a Norwegian burial find, from ca 500 CE. My mom has a similar pair she uses when she's doing viking reenactment; I think she bought it from a blacksmith at a viking market.
