Why would you have a gravestone before you die?

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Because, in general, the carvers don’t accept a dead person’s Mastercard.

ccunning ,

Well I hope you don’t live in an apartment. It would be awkward sitting next to your tombstone on the sofa…

tacosanonymous ,

But if you die next to it, it’s a neat story for first responders.

Also, it’s super convenient and you get to pick your own.

enbyecho ,

make the tombstone the sofa… problem solved

ccunning ,

I do prefer a firmer sofa…🤔

Modern propane tanks are too well designed to be unsafe.

Worse that will happen will be a little fireball and a flamethrower, but no explosions.

fmstrat ,

But a flamethrower pointed at another tank, increasing it’s temp and pressure…

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Just creates another flamethrower.

user224 ,

It won’t release the pressure fast enough. They’ll pop eventually.

fmstrat ,

Heated at a slow rate maybe, since the valve would fail. At speed though, too much too fast.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

There’s a safety valve.

Mtyhbusters had to weld up the safeties and shoot them with a shotgun.

When I worked in the arctic circle, we used to put the tank in the fire ring because they would freeze and nothing happened (I don’t recommend this of course.)

roguetrick ,

Satansmaggotycumfart actually tracks with me for being the type of person who takes a job up in some place like Inuvik Canada. Everyone I’ve ever known who’s done that has been fucking crazy.

Modern propane tanks are too well designed to be unsafe.

People like in the picture are the reason for that

marcos ,

We can thank them for providing quality assurance.

nilloc ,

These storage units are usually at gas stations though, which are kinda dumb to be smoking anywhere near IMO. But I still see people doing it now and then. Usually gas station employees.

I work in propane and some body actually did this ~3 weeks ago with one of our cages

It’ll not explode, but it’ll burn the cage down along with anything the cage is near should a spark catch, they’ll go up in flames FAST

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Do you work in propane accessories too?

gamermanh ,
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I’ve said it elsewhere on Lemmy:

I work in propane. I once was proud that I sold the most ez-go (stupid and basically useless accessory) in one month. my name starts with Ha-

I live in CA and prefer charcoal but otherwise I have become the professional persona of Hank Hill. My boss and I tried to get them to put “Hill” on one of my work shirts when I was still in the yard as a joke but Cintas said no

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Hank was a very good man, always there for his friends and family.

The invention of the iron stirrup allowed the unsc to defeat the covenant, while ring forts were crucial in surviving the flood

It’s not too late to have one made!

Something like that would be way beyond my price range. I’ll be lucky if I can afford a metal plaque.

At least the base looks flaired

takeda ,

You’re worried that you get a traffic cone lost in your ass?

ericatty ,

Ha, one should always be aware of the risks.

But also, VLC crashes a lot for me lately, so was hoping this was a joke that the next version would be more stable and the kinks would be worked out.

dingus ,

I thought I read somewhere that your social security card wasn’t initially at all meant for proof of identity and shit that we use it for today, which is why it’s made of fragile paper. But I didn’t actually look that up to verify so idk.

It stems from a conflict of need and want from what I understand.

The need for a national id and the refusal of the citizens for a national id. There was a lot of controversy about the SSN because it could be used as an id and the people didn’t want that being so privacy conscious, so they made the numbering system simple and that card fragile to show and dissuade that it isn’t a good id to get the SS passed.

But of course, there’s still a want/need for some kind of unified id across the nation - so it was used anyway

And thus we have a terrible id system: flimsy, deterministic, and mostly-unchangable

If you know the social security number of someone born in your hospital in the same day, it’s likely your ssn’s are right next to each other and could be guessed

At this point, I don’t think there would be much resistance to a national id, and it would be great for an update that is both securely random, and changeable so that leaking your SSN isn’t such a crazy risk, having it in a laminated card with a chip and electronic signature even better.

Scubus ,

Nah, that was changed around ~2009. Now ssns are random.

BleatingZombie ,

They’re made of that material so the card is destroyed if you leave it somewhere. It’s an intentional design choice
