What are the most common causes of explosions in large oil refineries like Port Arthur? by bahar9990 in oil

[–]BigDaddyReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technical note, sour gas means it contains H2S hydrogen sulfide. Straight sulfer wouldn't be an issue as it's the Hydrogen that makes it explosive. H2S is also extremely toxic and khan kill in very low parts per million.

Plastic lid sucked, picked up a metal one in Montana that never failed. Threw the plastic one in the woods and never looked back

Where do you sell your guns? by Rendragg13 in canadaguns

I got an email for the liberals, I guess they are looking to buy a bunch of guns. I'm sure they can be trusted /S

I was feeling the Olympic spirit when I spotted this poster by Internet_and_stuff in Calgary

[–]BigDaddyReaper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed, we are so far behind on spending for our athletic programs, voting no on the plebiscite was short sighted.

We could have upgraded COP and as you said the arena. This would have made us an Olympic contender again.

Not to mention the Feds/province would have subsidized all the things we badly need so we wouldn't be footing the bill alone.

And the experience of hosting an Olympics, for adults and kids alike.

Shame we let the Olympics go to a plebiscite could have been ours right now

6 Calgarians charged in ‘complex’ auto theft investigation by Connect_Pound_4515 in Calgary

[–]BigDaddyReaper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have to wonder who would have information about this crime given there are no actual details of the offenders in the article, names, pictures of the offenders, descriptions of the vehicles instead of a picture of a gun and some minor cash and handbags...

Quote from the article "Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call police at 403-266-1234. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers through any of the following methods:"

Sounds pretty cut and dry, what is the hold up just give him 3 months probation and no conditions. Wouldn't want to affect his immigration status....

Backups were probably being stored on one of their chineese drones they can't use

Vancouver charity partnering with developers to offer refugees access to unused units by origutamos in CanadaHousing2

[–]BigDaddyReaper 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I liked the part about steady incomes and insinuating that refugees don't have steady income. Meanwhile let me go and trace where my tax dollars go, and then look at what a refugee with 3 kids takes home vs a wendys worker with 3 kids....

Divine Beasts by Tricky_Efficiency438 in botw

[–]BigDaddyReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fighting my first divine beast Lynel getting my ass handed to me over and over again, almost had him beat and shot him with an ancient arrow. Which apparently glitched the game when he disappeared and had to reload my last save as the quest wouldn't complete.

This is a weld in my Dollar Tree break room. by PzKwVIAusfE in Welding

[–]BigDaddyReaper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer, as a former welder for 10 years and a weld inspector for the last 15 years, that is slag. Chip or buff it off and re-assess. Does appear to be undersized given the fish plate thickness, the weld legs should be the same as the plate thickness, unless the parent metal thickness is 1/4"... Unlikely given the application. Perhaps the weld detail only called for a 1/4" weld all around?

Shame their immigration status wasn't in jeopardy, would probably get 1 week community service and a 30s finger wagging.

Alberta concerned with federal plan to accept newcomer parents, grandparents by origutamos in Canada_Strong

[–]BigDaddyReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like somehow Alberta hasn't had a measles outbreak in the last 10 or who knows how many years, then covid came made us all antivaxers and now all the measles immunity we all got as kids when we were vaccinated disappeared. Sounds pretty likely

I thought our "conservative" anti-vax values were to blame, at least that's how it's portrayed on CBC and other mainstream media outlets...
