It's a podcast about engineering disasters... with slides

[–] Crampon@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

But first. The god damn news.

Which is, itself, an engineering disaster

I currently have Liam yelling in my ears about the god damn news. What are the odds. I’m shocked to see them referenced.

The synchronicity shocked me, I had just started an episode moments before opening the thread

[–] Hathaway@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Most current? Or, which episode?

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

128: The Death of Eastern Forests. I'm listening to the hosts talk about CWD and other prion diseases right now, which is a really cool and not existentially horrifying

[–] Hathaway@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 months ago

Ooooo that’s a good episode

It’s fine, understanding advancements in metallurgy to decrease track wear is critical information I need to know.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Same! And I had no idea how suddenly important it was!

There is no time to waste. We learning tonight

If it was a good video vaguely about trains then you're okay.

If it was a bad one (or wasn't really about trains), then find another one to balance it out.

Choo Choo!

It's either WTYP or Practical Engineering
