At some point the danger of losing that much food and having to remake it all far outweighs the benefit of having only one guy haul it

Ambassadorofsodomy posted:I don't know how big some of those giant transmission lines are, but I've seen steel pipelines directional drilled that were about a metre in diameter. The line that caused it all and that had the multiple km trail of smoke is an above ground 150kV line. The company representative states that because the lines didn't reach the 700 degree melting point of aluminum, that they're still usable. But they'll all be inspected. I have my doubts - but i am not a lineman. The train's power supply lines are 1,5 to 1,8kV DC and i don't think they run through conduit at all. You can see them surface in various places if you look closely when you're in a train crawling through a bunch of switch points, and a bit away from the rails you'll find a little substation with a transformer and rectifier. So far no pictures of the damage to the transformers, if any. There is also a type of above ground concrete conduit that the railways use. It's essentially a U shaped trough with a lid on it. No idea what they put in those.

A bunch of fire ants decided to build a nest at the bottom of a vertical sliding garage door at work. I found this out when I opened that door after a weekend and noticed a few ants scurrying about still holding onto the bottom of the garage door lip. The back at work is pretty dark so they think they are underground and are just milling about everywhere until their world is split in half and they go into defense mode and swarm everything. One of my co-workers was on vacation for a week and came back to discovery this by slinging a wave of fire ants all over one side of his body when he opened that door. Thankfully he uses an insect repellent lotion and only got stung a couple of times. At least this convinced my boss to get some ant poison and deal with that nest.

In the Ukrainian city of Chernihiv, they had a charity fair near the art museum. One of the displays was of ammunition used in the war with Russia. It turned out to be live ammunition. A 10-year-old boy picked up an anti-tank grenade launcher and pulled the trigger. It went off. https://i.imgur.com/UYuwOr8.mp4 Four adults and four children were injured, but apparently nothing more than cuts and bruises.

Maybe training ammo without a warhead in it? It’s still going to make a bang when you fire it and even a dummy rocket is going to do some damage slamming into the ground at whatever speed those things move at.

Don't most grenade launchers not arm the explosives until the grenade travels a certain distance? So firing it into the ground or a wall won't cause an explosion (but can obviously hurt or kill people nearby).

So firing it into the ground or a wall won't cause an explosion (but can obviously hurt or kill people nearby). All of this sounds like unfounded speculation. Why would there be training ammo among captured Russian weapons? Blast injuries depend on how far people are from a blast, so there is no reason to think that deaths would automatically follow. And we can actually hear two distinct blasts in the video, the first a loud one at 00:01 mark and the second, a more muffled one, at 00:07. My take is that the first one is the firing of the RPG, which as a recoilless weapon creates a hefty backblast. The munition flies for some six seconds (probably less, the sound from where it lands travels at only 343 m/s so there is some delay). It seems very much possible that the backblast of the weapon sent whatever junk was on its way at people in its danger cone. This could very easily kill you if you stood next to it right behind, but a little bit of distance will "only" beat you up really bad. It's also possible that debris could have flown from the final explosion to people within some range. We don't know how the injuries happened. But the two separete bangs tell us that the grenade did arm itself. Nenonen fucked around with this message at 19:52 on Sep 3, 2022 |
