Wikipedia tells me chlorine trifloride is even worse and we used to manufacture the stuff in bulk. The Nazis were going to use it in flamethrowers but it was too evil for them.
It was being shipped for use in rocket fuel and it ignited the steel tank, and he resulting fire burned several inches of asbestos, a foot of concrete, and several feet of dirt and gravel below that. When asked for comment one survivor screamed, "The concrete was on fire!"
You see guys on YouTube buy this stuff and other nasties like fluoroantimonic acid from chemical supply companies and use it to mediocre effect. That's because you can't actually buy the really nasty stuff, they send you the last stable precursor and you need to assemble it yourself. Instructions are not included because if you don't know already you've got no business screwing with something that will explode and cover the world in unquenchable toxic fire. When you buy fluoroantimonic acid, for example, you actually need to prepare it with hydrogen fluoride to get the real deal acid that dissolves glass and ignites rock.
Yeah, turns out that there's nothing that's actually fireproof just very fire resistant.
Everything burns with enough heat.
Not really. Everything burns with the right oxidzer is closer to the truth. ClF3 doesn't burn much hotter than a normal fire IIRC it just is really really good at reacting with things.

Yeah, by simply adding heat you will first melt then vaporize whatever you are heating up, and with enough heat eventually make a plasma of disassociated nuclear particles.
They are gigantic cuddly duckrodents. They mean you no harm.
They can be gigantic dicks though. One beaver used to taunt my grand pa. He would quietly chop down one of my grandpa's trees overnight and then right before he sailed the thing out into the lake he would slap his tail repeatedly until my grandpa went outside. I think the beaver just liked to hear my grandpa swearing at it. Beaver probably was like that because grandpa had to dynamite dams now and then so the lake would not flood.

Maybe the beaver thought your grandpa was his friend and just wanted to show off his work...

The project has a very smart and simple name: "The Punishing Signal." They connected decibel meters to a few signal poles around Mumbai. If the decibel levels ever went over 85 dB, the signal would reset and the light would stay red for longer.

That's fair. My personal sample size is only 1 and I had wood chip biscuits to feed it.
Having a content 45-lb hamster in your lap is pretty adorable.

That's a rather gnawty beaver.

I can see Mumbai's pedestrians starting to carry air horns about...
They probably just have the mic like twenty feet up. If they only did it in a handful of places, good luck sneaking up twenty feet of exposed traffic pole with cops and thousands of angry drivers watching.

Since the basic problem seems to be honking due to traffic congestion, and laying on the horn even when it doesn't do anything, messing with the lights at all sounds like it won't do anything. This is to try and encourage people to just lay off the horns in general as traffic creeps along.
How hard is it to install basic directional sensitivity too? So a bunch of people lay on the horn coming from the green light sidetrying to extend it (if that's even possible) and all right, it shifts yellow.
But like I said above, if the problem is traffic is that tied up, playing with the light timing isn't going to achieve much for you.
But also just a few people honking wouldn’t change it. It has to get to a certain decibel level.
Yeah, they had to put that airhorn right next to the mic to get over the sound level reset. That means a fuckload of honking has to be going on from a bunch of cars in order to match. I can understand why the cops want to get this stupid horn-honking crap stopped, because the noise must be absolutely awful for a city that size.
I think the whole thing is a pretty dang good idea. They aren't doing anything draconian like issuing tickets for people honking their horns without reason, they're just throwing up some negative reinforcement directly linked to the issue. The less you honk, the faster everyone goes, and the city ends up quieter. 5

Yeah, this is not something that one person could reliably effect, at least not without a horn modification that would probably get them beaten to death with spare tires the first time they used it.

OK so 2 things about those robots
1) They don't actually clean up anything, they just pretend to stand in the way of spills in an aisle
2) Before they put the googly eyes on they looked like they were made by the goddamn Cylons. Now they look like the Cylons got high and then made them.

You forgot constantly beep so you can tell it’s following you.

You might say they've really gone into the toilet?
HEYOOOOOOO.
Return of the TURDIS?
That's some crazy shit right there.

Gone right: Police are testing a system where if the honking gets over a certain decibel level, traffic lights stay red longer
If its green for you when approaching wouldn't this just encourage you to honk your horn so it stays green long enough for you to cross?
It’s not a very important country most of the time

Edit: the traffic light thing, not the beaver.
Is it weird that I feel bad you felt the need to clarify that?

You can see the lights have timers visible to the public, and you can see them get reset. I'm the video.
And I'm the light that stays stopped an extra couple seconds because you honked

Just don’t read further down that tweet to the replies. Someone named EE posted and things get... weird.
They probably just extend the all-red time.
That was my thought. Good for pedestrians though.

Also my kids are scared of it
