A poor comparison. Gas masks operate using negative pressure inside to draw air through the filters, and leaks would allow air to bypass filtration. CPAPs use a pump to force it in, and leaks are not only permissible but designed into the mask/hose.

For those wondering, it's likely for moving rolls of carpet.

Put the guard back on. It was there for a reason. Table saws are notorious for taking fingers. Even skilled craftsmen slip up from time to time.

#43 an odd choice for that caption. That's Alexander Graham Bell using a primitive metal detector in a desperate attempt to find a bullet in the president.

And those noises are it trying to say "just let me die already". I can't even remember the last time I saw a floppy drive.

A tad odd. One would think given her extensive history with multiple Jedi, she'd know not to shoot at one.

To be fair to the people in 1941, the full details of the atrocities being committed weren't known at that time, and after the horrible bloodshed of WW1 there was little desire to be involved in yet another European war. By contrast, Russia and China's crimes are well documented.

Not a new concept. Such a facility exists in the Mojave. It uses mirrors to direct sunlight to a center structure. It's known for burning tons of birds with the intense light at the collector, and using a bunch of natural gas to preheat the system before dawn.

There's a pin pulled at the top before it's able to deploy. There's no way to open it from the ground.

You wanna risk dying doing something dumb, go for it, but don't drag someone else into your stupidity.

To be fair, a Husky shouldn't really be expected to know how to swim. They prefer the snow.

This is one of the ways it's done in large industrial facilities as well, and not always for food. Works for anything round of varying size.

There are 9 full faces that would not have paint, and 2 half faces for a total of 10. That means the surface area of each face is 90/10=9. Each side is therefore 3, meaning the volume of each cube is 27

#13 and #14 -- I've seen quite a few of these creepy bastards.

My first thought as well. That computer probably cost more than a cheap car back then.

I'm sure it's only coincidence that MacDowell (how the locals say it) county is also one of the poorest in the entire country.

WTF was the cork puller even supposed to do? You'd think she'd have realized something was amiss.

I mean, for a couple it works out. Begs for something and ends up getting adopted.

#8 "poultry not included". Really? In a chart about mammals?

That's depressing. Was hoping for some exotic UV reactive ink, a UV light, and a lens filter.
