To each their own but it seems silly to remove a post because you don’t find it funny when it’s not something outright offensive.

fmstrat ,

Yea, I hope this also violated a rule.

roguetrick , (edited )

I don’t. The closer this place gets to FYAD idiot kings and people migrating to new communities if they don’t like a particular idiot king mod, the better. Modlogs should be funny.

Keep it up idiot king @alphanerd4

spujb OP ,

I also love that they say it’s “not very funny,” conceding it’s a little funny but still worth mod action anyway

RecluseRamble ,

It’s about South Park, so it may have been just a little offensive.

OH NAAAH

OmnislashIsACloudApp , in This is ground control to Major Dumb...

so I actually had a friend years back who worked at a junkyard.

I was hanging out there with him one time (definitely probably not smoking anything…) and he was still clearing things out.

so he grabs a propane tank and brings it up to where he has an oxyacetylin torch, lights the torch and starts cutting into the tank.

I about shit my pants and took off at least 50 ft back behind a car asking if he was trying to die today.

apparently I was the one that didn’t know what I was talking about though because of a second later he cut through and it just popped a little flame.

he just let that flame burn until it was out and that’s how he knew the tank was empty.

apparently these things are very hard to blow up.

SupraMario ,

They don’t blow up, but they will create a bigass torch that will spin them around some. You’re not getting blown into pieces, but you’re going to be going into the er with some bbq’d body parts.

Thanks, Hank

SupraMario ,

Coal is not allowed in this household!

OmnislashIsACloudApp ,

maybe if it was more full?

the tank didn’t even move when I saw it, just a little flame about 4 inches long for a couple mins.

was super anticlimactic

Decoy321 ,

Also, if you handle them a lot, it’s easy to tell how full they are by weight alone.

LemmyKnowsBest ,

4 inches long for a couple mins. was super anticlimactic

I’ve experienced something like that before ♀️ 😭

SupraMario ,

That sounds like it had almost nothing left in the tank. A full one will burn for a good bit.

MrJollyLivesNextDoor ,
Tja ,

Because the tank was almost empty. Who knows what happens if it’s full, or overpressured, or corroded or something. Hiding behind a solid object would be my move as well.

Ilovethebomb ,

Pressurised gas is a different story, and liquid pressurised gas is even worse still.

Basically a bomb if they are in a fire.

OmnislashIsACloudApp ,

yeah this will work but you basically have to create a fire around the tank while keeping it pressurized right? you have to bring the whole tank to the point where it overwhelms the relief valve.

Ilovethebomb ,

Yup. I’ve seen news footage of fuel depot fires where they had them stored, and you can hear them popping off like firecrackers.

rcbrk , (edited )

Yeah nah, that’s not the way. Sure people can get away with it, but it’s really not eliminating the hazards.

There’s a bunch of non-obvious hazards which exist around cutting into containers which have held fuels, including but not limited to:

  • An empty propane container could have an gas+air mixture inside it in proportions which could explode.
  • Any liquid residue in an empty fuel container can be vapourised by the heat of the cutting, creating a fuel+air mix which can spontaneously explode from the pressure and heat, even without sparks (think: diesel engine principle but instead of a 0.25L cylinder it’s a 200L cylinder).
  • An empty gas canister can be contaminated with heavier oils/waxes that could build up over the years of refilling cycles, creating the same hazard as noted for empty liquid fuel containers.

Methods to reduce the hazard include:

  • Thoroughly washing the inside of the container before cutting (access can be difficult though).
  • Filling with water and cutting while full of water. (Container musn’t be sealed, and the cutting method must be safe to use in a wet environment, and further hazards such as introducing oxygen into the container need to be considered).

I acknowledge the art and tradition of good rare meat, but that’s fucking raw don’t eat that.

Aux ,

That’s called rare in Britain and it’s safe to eat. Raw is safe too. Also raw pork and venison is safe. As well as eggs and milk. High food quality standards we have.

conciselyverbose ,

For beef you’re generally fine if you kill surface germs. You can serve steaks rare because it’s not really a risk.

Ground beef is not because the surface germs get mixed in.

Zwiebel ,

We eat raw ground pork and pork/beef mix in Germany (called Mett), and ground pork is also eaten in France (Tartar)

conciselyverbose ,

There are ways to handle and prepare most meats so that they’re reasonably safe. And even the “safe temperature” people generally see are the instantaneous temperature (if they hit that, the most common sources of food borne illness they carry are dead), but you can achieve the same results if you can keep the internal temperature at a lower temperature for longer.

The guidelines for cooking are assuming some potential for exposure to contamination somewhere in the process.

Aux ,

For beef and everything else I’m fine either way. Otherwise how would I make tartare, carpaccio and mett?

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

You wouldn’t.

Beef isn’t too bad to be eaten raw, but pork has bacteria and parasites that are much more dangerous to humans. That’s why some religions ban eating pork. It keeps their followers alive.

Aux ,

What do you mean I wouldn’t? I eat raw pork regularly. Just like everybody else in Europe.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

Some people in Germany regularly eat raw pork. The rest of Europe cook their pork thoroughly.

Aux ,

I had raw pork in Italy, UK and Spain.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

No-one will stop you eating raw pork in Italy, UK and Spain.

No-one will join you either.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,
Aux ,

25% of the world’s population has toxoplasmosis. The main distribution vector is cats. That’s why we all love cats!

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

Do Germans love cats twice as much, or can we assume raw pork is also a factor?

Aux ,

It doesn’t matter as it doesn’t hurt anyone in any way, shape or form.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

Incorrect.

Yes, healthy people hardly ever notice the disease. However, the infection can have serious consequences for them if their immune system is weakened, for example if they have an organ transplant or if they contract AIDS. The parasite can then become active again and cause brain inflammation.

If the mother becomes infected with this pathogen during pregnancy, it can be transmitted to the unborn child, and the unborn child also becomes infected and suffers developmental disorders. This leads to the unborn child being born deformed or a miscarriage occurring.

Aux ,

Cool story. But again, 25% of all population are infected. And side effects are pretty much non existent.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

50% of people in (East?) Germany, and I listed the existing serious effects above.

Aux ,

If it was even remotely serious, Germans would do something about it. But it’s not.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,
Aux ,

Lol what? When did you switch to salmonella? Ran out of arguments?

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

It shows that the regulators in Germany are not as good as you claim.

Aux ,

Lol, it shows that you’re talking out of your arse.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In ,

I appreciate that you are defending your raw pork munching culture, but I’ve provided various links demonstrating that it’s not my ass that is talking.

Aux ,

If you say so.

south park is ok

niktemadur , in Hey guys, I found him.

My first thought was that this is around Belmont Park in San Diego, but that building on the left side of the picture has a bit of elevation, where the land around Belmont is flatter.

Is this in Santa Monica?
