Melian Dialogue posted:Speaking of art installations, was at an art gallery that had some massive electircal contraption to play music with like, a paintbrush playing the guitar etc and a bunch of other things, along with the schematic on the wall. Does OSHA type or fire codes or any of this come into play for art pieces? Or are these just giant deathtraps waiting to arc and burn down the gallery? It's only REAL art when a spectator is killed by the art. After that, it's a question of whether they died comedically or tragically. See also: Luis Jiminez

mostlygray posted:I'm sure I've posted regarding this before, but family farms are the worst places for safety violations. They are exempt from most requirements and your equipment is usually terrible. A neighbor of ours was de-gloved from one ankle to the other, including his genitals, because he stepped over a running PTO with loose pants. Unfortunately, he lived. I'm sure his life is hell.

Drunk Driver Dad posted:Welp, I got to feel 11,000 volts AC across the chest tonight at work. Was surging testing some coils with another dude, and he hit the pedal while I still had the connectors in my hands. The weird thing is it didn't feel like a shock at all, just like someone thumped me real hard all the way up the arms and across my chest. Other than that it wasn't that bad. He freaked out about it and I wound up actually feeling bad for him, although it was pretty stupid. Whenever I'm testing with another person and running the machine, I let the other person tell me when to hit the juice as well as visually confirming they aren't touching it myself. You're lucky that you're not dead. You need to figure out a different SOP /some disconnect to prevent this kind of poo poo from happening.

Splode posted:Yeah at some point it's a situation where they clearly don't care that much (or it's making them more money in fines than it costs to repair) because, as shown, there are plenty of ways to fix it. A quick blast of flame toward the windshield from a personal flamethrower mounted on the bridge might alert truck drivers more.

In my engineering opinion, the city should take the sewer pipeline and completely rethink it. Run it up and over the railroad tracks in a artistically-inspired parabola and use a huge pump to make the sewage flow up through the pipe and over to the other side. Make it out of mirror-finished stainless steel with plexiglass windows to let light through, call it the Arc de Merde (Arch of poo poo) and voila! an instant tourist attraction for the hoi polloi. With the roadway thus cleared, Durham can dig out the trench to their heart's delight. Everyone wins.

Bonster posted:Older post but this bridge is still down, over a year after she crashed it. I've never been able to stop and get a picture of it, but it is seriously just a tangled wreck of metal. I think they've been trying to rebuild it so it's visually the same, but Paoli is not a wealthy town. It's one of the four roads off downtown's roundabout, a major route in a minor town. I swear, some truck drivers and their companies are so stupid that it's a wonder that our roads aren't awash with blood. In NJ, there was a bridge in Kingwood that was partially collapsed by an overweight crane. How overweight? Only 90,500 lbs. That's 90,500 lbs over the maximum allowable non-permit highway weight of 80,000 lbs. The whole thing weighed 170,500 lbs. It took around two years to get a replacement, which probably pissed off the locals no end.

Talk about foreign OSHA: scaffolding at a Chinese power plant construction site collapsed, killing at least 67. I wonder if we'll ever hear of the reason.
