Ruggan posted:Yeah I’m no electrical engineer but didn’t he just unintentionally run that current directly through his heart? It's particularly bad because of the "perfect storm" that is a microwave transformer. You hear "its the volts that jolts, the mills that kills". 100 milliamps across the heart is enough to kill you. But, you can touch car batteries (600,000 milliamps) without issue because the voltage is low enough that your skin's resistance won't allow enough current to flow. You can survive thousands of volts from static shock, TASERs (generally...), electric flyswatters, etc because they can't source the 100 milliamps necessary, although they have a sufficiently high voltage to do it. A microwave transformer runs at about 2,500 volts. They can source up to 1000 milliamps. They have no safeties on them whatsoever. I am legitimately amazed he did not die.

40+40mph = 40mph+wall because both cars have crumple zones. The speed is higher but you've got twice as much crumplezone to deal with it.

That's what blkdiscard does, and is the only way to delete from an SSD thanks to wear leveling. Pending OSHA: my work got a ping-pong table. We put it on the mezzanine, with a thin chain stopping all the retarded fat developers (myself included) from plummeting 15 feet to the concrete floor below. For some reason we are incapable of chasing a runaway ball without looking like Peter Griffin.

I did that plunge-cutting into lineoleum with a circular saw I borrowed from my neighbor. My wife and I had been arguing about doing the floor ourselves or hiring said neighbor (who was a general contractor to do it). I was cutting a triangle so I could start cutting the floor out. First two plunge cuts went fine, third plunge cut kicked back and ate straight up my femoral artery before my jeans finally bound it up. I had the guard set such that I got scrapes along the skin, nothing more. The cut was about 14 inches long. I wordlessly walked to my neighbors house with my shredded jeans exposing my underwear and told him he was doing the flooring. It was an extremely surreal moment.

Artemis J Brassnuts posted:The thing about the “I pressed the brakes and I kept going” is that any car with functional brakes is going to be able to easily put out more braking force than the engine can deal with - especially when it’s always some generic 150hp sedan. Yeah but at wide open throttle, you get about 2 brake presses before you lose vacuum assist. Brakes without assist "feel broken" as people are only used to pressing with their toe. That, and not knowing what the other letters in PRNDL stand for, means they're just along for the ride. This is really only the case for events like the state trooper in his Altima (?), not gramps who buckles up and is through the plate glass storefront 0.25 seconds later.

You can pretty easily get a lot of liquid propane inside the fittings, that will burn for a long time after disconnected. I have one of those rosebud-burners, and it burns for like 2 minutes after the propane tank has been fully unscrewed.
