Wow, that sucks. It's probably deep enough that you'd need diving equipment and there's a good chance that thing raises enough debris to camouflage it on the floor.

But also, lmao at the woman neatly retrieving the cord and then throwing it away dejectedly. Great situational comedy, trying to get back home is going to suck a lot.

Man, Mudrunner felt like a much better game to be honest. Can set it up for proper manual transmission shifting as well (clutch and all!). Was super stoked about Snowrunner but other than improved graphics it felt like a worse game in every sense.

I was gonna say that's pretty impressive for 4 horsepower, but then I looked it up and the maximum power of a horse is 15 horsepower.

Holy poo poo.
I work on safety-critical car electronics and have had conversations like this far too often:

:v: Do we really need to check that the hardware still works every time the car turns on?
:geno: Yes. We have to check everything every time, more or less.
:v: But we already did factory testing so we know it works. It will save a lot of time if we don't.
:geno: We can't just assume that it works though. Our objective is to make the device failsafe. If we can't detect it failed we can't take any action to make it safe.
:v: But how can this part fail?
:geno: It doesn't really matter how. We have to assume it can fail and check it as a matter of course.
:v: Alright alright. Well it's calibrated at startup at least we don't have to worry about that.
:geno: Yes we do... We can't assume the result will never change. In fact we need to check the calibration every 50ms because it's absolutely critical that it's correct.
:v: Can't we just do it once though? It's going to be the same result every time.
:geno: We can't just assume it will never break. What if it breaks?
:v: I've never heard of this kind of part breaking.
:geno: OK... Let's say we don't check it. A car with our device explodes and a family of five burns to death inside. Now how are we going to prove that we didn't kill those people?
:v: I don't want to think about that. Come on. That's a bit extreme.
:geno: Even if we make no mistakes, something else could fail and we could take the blame for it. Are we going to testify in court that we just never expected it to break so we didn't check it? How do you think that'll go for us?
:v: Yeah... yeah... alright. You're right.
:geno: If you assume it fails you don't have to worry about it. It's much easier to begin by assuming everything will fail.
:v: True. Well at least we don't have to check [other thing we DEFINITELY HAVE TO CHECK]......

Wherever this is seems pretty industrial. Wouldn’t they have like maybe a heat gun lying around? Or even just a propane heater to stand in front of?

my family had a lovely motor boat when I was growing up that broke down every other time we took it out on the water. turns out most boaters are very happy to help you out and tow you if you're stuck! and we didn't even have any cute women on board..

Inflatable boats don't have permanent mounting for the outboard so you can take it off and deflate the boat. Whomever installed it last did not ensure it was tight enough.

People always talking bad about poo poo creeks, but you know what, probably not going to be flowing all that fast.

...possibly better place to be stuck in without a paddle?

This. It's two girls in bikinis within sight of a busy choke point near a bridge. They got a free tow and some beers tossed to them within the hour.
