Office saunas aren't common but they do exist on larger office buildings. Of course, a lot of other facilities that you wouldn't think would have them have them.

71 ABV Pontikka is pretty strong stuff. Also, I'm pretty certain the NPP mentioned in the newspaper is referencing the tower of Babel that is the Olkiluoto 3 reactor project.

When he does have to talk about the corpse, he'll just be called as a witness to say "I found it in rotting asbestos-filled shithole in this particular area and only because I've been paid to audit the whole area for the sake of determining the cost of defucking it"

IMO the reason why Markku doesn't contribute that much is because he prefers to spend his money to drink at home like a true working class Finn.

RearmingStrafbomber posted:The dam made some kind of sense. (Is two-phase generator power a thing in Finland?) It could be so that the dam was originally built for providing electric arc furnaces with an immense shitload of power. But yes, it's still a thing here. As for gates, I assume they're there to control flooding in case there's an excess of rain and the river would become quite the hazard anyone downstream.

I don't think it's that, instead I bet it's just food poisoning.

I'm pretty certain those large switch-boxes you asked about are related to controlling various bits of heating, lighting and power going to different parts of the facility.

Any bets on what sorts of gasses would even be in that amount to start the whole facility to shake that much?

Ratoslov posted:What the hell is all this machinery doing here? I mean, this place is hooked up to the rail network. Even if they couldn't find another buyer for it intact, I'm sure it'd be worth enough in scrap value alone to be worth clearing the place out during the bankruptcy period. I'm guessing all the creditors were happy with selling out the inventory of rolled steel and clearing out the offices. Besides, scrapping the industrial equipment itself is a remarkably complex and challenging task.

Summer Car Center is actually a reference to a farcical event that was the Sunny Car Center's attempt at actually becoming a thing. Long story short, the businessman leading a project meant to be the largest car dealership in all of Europe managed to lose 150 000 € to a Nigerian prince scam. The people who were planning on selling the land backed out when they heard this so basically the only thing that resulted from it was a very tall advertising pole that stood in Hämeenlinna for a while becoming a distinctive landmark and a source of comedy amongst all of Finland for a few years while the business man responsible went bankrupt owing a lot of money to a lot of other people. Incidentally, the people who made INFRA also happened to have their offices in the same building as our heroic idiot of a businessman who fell for the most basic of scams. As for the pole, it is dismantled now but it still lives in memories and memes.

Psychotic Weasel posted:In his attempt to turn off the power, Mark inadvertently causes a massive gas explosion that levels the neighbourhood we're in. They should have just made the other lever there not be present, which i assume controls that part of the forklift. Alternatively, it's a one where it controls the pitch of the forks rather than the spread of them.

And the next game Loiste is making about Stahlburg has just been announced, which will be about making alcoholic drinks, eating mushrooms to get high and living in depressing concrete blocks. Basically, it's the urban Finland simulator to My Summer Car's rural Finland simulator.

Man, they really just like leaving those fuel rods around just on the station dock. Also, I think the intriguing thing in room G5 is the noose that you didn't notice but I noticed it at 19:34 As for the question of rotting bodies, maybe the area has enough radiation to kill most common bacteria and thus creating a red-forest type area where nothing really decays any more.
