As in coal-powered steam trains? There’s a moderate number in tourist service around the world.

Diesel or electric trains carrying coal are still very common.

The NASA Vehicle Assembly Building is also a contender.

I’m not sure how many dividing walls there are inside Everett, but the VAB is basically one massive empty skyscraper.

It’s also torches and everything after the regulator, which run at much lower pressure. At least in NZ

I think it might be because they’re connected and disconnected regularly so misconnection is a common problem, even with colour coding. Gas work on houses involves actually putting the fittings on pipe and is done by people who should be concentrating more on that rather than on what they’re about to weld/cut.

I’ve heard flammable gas uses reverse (left hand) thread to prevent cross connection. At least for welding gases in NZ; not sure about natural gas.

Oh, indeed. I’m just pointing out that terrible & illegal DRM is hardly a new practice.

You can’t really have effective copy protection on any disc that can be played in a basic CD player; they’re just too simple.

So Sony’s approach was to put an autorun installer for a ‘music player’ on the disk too. If installed, it attempted to lock your CD drive from being used by any other software and couldn’t be easily uninstalled. And they pirated open-source software (yes, that’s possible) to build it.

SMH My Head.

Try the Sony BMG Rootkit, contained on music CDs:

In 2005 it was revealed that the implementation of copy protection measures on about 22 million CDs distributed by Sony BMG installed one of two pieces of software that provided a form of digital rights management (DRM) by modifying the operating system to interfere with CD copying. Neither program could easily be uninstalled, and they created vulnerabilities that were exploited by unrelated malware. One of the programs would install and “phone home” with reports on the user’s private listening habits, even if the user refused its end-user license agreement (EULA), while the other was not mentioned in the EULA at all. Both programs contained code from several pieces of copylefted free software in an apparent infringement of copyright, and configured the operating system to hide the software’s existence, leading to both programs being classified as rootkits.

The headline margin of error only applies at the centre (50%), and decreases towards the extremes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margin_of_error#Specific_margins_of_error

Wikipedia says that for a poll with 1013 participants and the same headline margin of error, a 2% result would be ±0.8%.

It’s more likely that this is the crowd who deliberately gives the most absurd answer possible.

Lol.

Ah, yes. People surprised that money laundering doesn’t become legal just because you use a computer to do it.

Doesn’t seem possible considering it’s a per ounce listing.

Perhaps it’s suggesting less than 1% impurity in the alcohol; i.e. methanol content?
