The AI-generated cat pictures thread
Having been playing BattleGrounds more frequently... I found this pretty hilarious.
The channel also has a number of other short videos. More PUBG related, also NPC man which is pretty good too.

It's on Facebook. Can't figure out how to link from my phone so I'll have to try next time I'm on a computer. It's a cell video of the video being played back on a laptop so the quality is kinda crap. Looks like a red car spun in front of the firebird. The firebird braked hard and she ran straight into it

Had a hiccup today at the plant. Got called in on my day off 9am.
Things were running hard, full capacity. Sudden power outage, we lost everything. Some things came back online instantly, mostly LEDs and some other random things. But it was spotty, some things that were on the same transformer(we have 3 mains transformers) would be on while others would not. I go around checking power and find some strange stuff. Anywhere from 20v to 220v on 3 phase lines, single phased badly. Some step down transformers were working some weren't. The smell in the air, some of you know it, the burnt electrical smell. It was everywhere. Once i started seeing all the bad power i made the call to kill everything. Production was sent home and all the power turned off off.(cue $5,000 an hour downtime) Called our electric provider and get them en-route, (service tickets with DTE are a nightmare(and to think our electricity bill went up $30,000 last month, that should tell you how much power we use)).
I took this photo of one of my transformers. At one point it was 265F. Thank god it's iron core.
DTE finally shows up a few hours later. This is the 13200v main out by the street:
This explains the smell.
We ended up blowing about 30 3 phase fuses, 5 480v motors, few computers lost their lives. Everything else did okay. Our provider rigged up some type of fix. They will be out sunday to replace the smoked undersized transformer.

That's one of my biggest fears.
We have two separate distribution feeds coming into the station, from two providers. I don't want to talk about how much that costs.
The mains switching system is older than I am. So is the generator and its transfer switch. Actually, the mains switch is probably older than all but a few of the people who work here.
We take in 12.6 kV, slam it down to 480, and pass it through 3,000A fuses. The genny is 1.5 MW. I don't even know the rating of the UPS, but its batteries occupy a whole room on the 1st floor.
(This is about 2/3 of the batteries.)
The UPS and its wiring are pretty clean. The rest of it scares me.
