Literally just tie a super strong magnet to the end of a rope, throw it in the water, and see what you can pull up. Usually it's just trash. Sometimes it's a gun.

I assume this is a good way to mess with ancient rocket trigger systems aka turn the river into an ultrajacuzzi?

so they know there's bombs there, and their solution is to fine anyone who also figures that out?

I think the US is dumb for not using Celsius
I assume that they know they are there, but no one wants to figure out how to deal with them. There's probably been a years/decades long battle over whose responsibility it is to dredge them out of that river and then dispose of them. Something like the EOD people not wanting to dive into the gross river to get them, and the people whose job it is to deal with the river not wanting to handle explosives. So if a couple morons dig up 86 of them, the bomb people are happy to go get them, because they aren't in the water. But a bunch of morons pulling up old explosives is a liability problem. So they just accept that they are there and fine anyone who pulls them out.

Just let those yahoos sign a waiver and fish the rest out to dispose of, they'll have a good time and get stuff done.

quote:

You know how canaries were historically brought into coal mines, because if the mine was full of carbon monoxide the canary would die first and the miners would be able to escape before they died too?

I just found the greatest thing.

This is a canary resuscitator.

When the miners notice the canary getting sick with carbon monoxide poisoning, they can close that circular hatch so no more gas gets into the canary cage, and open the valve on that oxygen tank to keep the canary breathing. In other words, they made a spacesuit for birds.

By immediately giving the canary access to clean air, the miners can save it from the poison. The bird lives. To be clear, this is not for economic purposes, this was specifically created because the miners felt bad and wanted to save the bird.

Isn’t that just the perfect demonstration of what humans are like? We started sacrificing small creatures to save ourselves, and then felt bad and spent our valuable resources on saving the critters too. Because yeah the canary was the only way to test for CO, but it’s a living creature too, dammit!

Tram tracks are extremely devious. They're fine if you go across perpendicularly, but even a slight deviation to diagonal and you risk slipping in.

Duckboards like this are another fun obstacle found at many marshy trails here. Sometimes they're built so tightly that there's no problem riding across, but sometimes you start riding across one and notice that a middle section is too rotten to ride through but now you are also on a narrow and slippery duckboard so it's hard to stop and get off without falling into the swamp...
