gently caress You And Diebold posted:i mean it really shows trumps priorities, but $10million is a drop in the bucket. 5 million people are under the hurricane watch, at least 4 million more under the tropical storm watch. That $10 mil is like a dollar for each person and is going to represent a tiny fraction of the relief spending for this Letting facts get in the way of a good narrative is dumb.

If the storm surge is higher than my first floor I'll just go up to the second. And if it's higher than my second, I'll just go into my attic. And if it's higher than my attic, well I've got an axe, I can get on the roof, and we all know storm surges are legally required to never get higher than a roof.

The Nastier Nate posted:Mitch Landrieu wants to run for president, I don't know much about him based on just that, there are worse records to run on. He let the city's water board fall into a deep state of hosed-up-ness. If his term had ended right after his Confederate monument speech, he would have left office revered. But he had like a whole nother year left and everyone found out how hosed the pumping system is and how crooked the water board was and now the city hates him.

The pumping system in New Orleans was like this state of the art technological marvel ... in 1900. It's so loving old that it uses the wrong kind of electricity. 25 cycle instead of the standard 60 cycle. So they have to have a bunch of ancient power generators that no one makes parts for anymore so they have to machine parts themselves if anything breaks.

hobbesmaster posted:any synchronous generator can produce 25Hz, just have to set the right speed. I think the route they're going is strapping converters onto some part of the system so it can hook up to 60-cycle power. But this is also expensive and the project is taking forever while we get "100 years rains" every 2 years or so.

My apartment flooded from the ground up. There are apparently holes in the floor that go to the groundwater, so it was like my apartment sprung a leak. I had to move my car to the middle of the street or it would have been totalled and I wouldn't have been able to leave after this storm passes ahead of the hurricane.
