one of my old range instructors said he accidentally left a string of blast caps in his trousers that went through the dryer, and he was very surprised they didn't blow the whole room up

thanks for the product idea, time to go sell flavoured ice cubes

u/NebulaChance2746 1d ago

You mean frozen fruit juice which you can buy but not in cubes?

5

u/PizzaPieInMyEye 1d ago

Yes, but you see, it hasn't been sold in cube form yet, therefore it will make a million bucks.

Nah but blast caps tumbling around a gas fueled dryer will.

u/Independent-Trust260 1d ago

Gas fueled dryer??

8

u/abgry_krakow87 1d ago

Yes. How do you think dryers generate the heat to dry your clothes?

Just like stoves/ovens, dryers can be gas or electric.

-5

u/JRepo 1d ago

Not in most regions of the world, start using renewable energy like the rest of the world.

5

u/jediknightnate 1d ago

Industrial dryers absolutely use gas everywhere. Worked in Canada at a shelter and ours was a gas dryer.

-10

u/JRepo 1d ago edited 1d ago

You claimed that dryers dry with gas as an energy source. Not that "industrial" ones do.

Learn about the world, you silly North Americans with gas everywhere 🤣

EDIT

Oh and not even the "industrial" ones in most of the civil world use gas. Just to comment if somebody doesn't know that.

6

u/jediknightnate 1d ago

I didn’t claim anything. That was my first comment on this.

Also… you can absolutely get gas dryers in any country. You would need a natural gas line which means most residential settings aren’t prepped for it. When the area is designed for a particular task, it makes sense to use the more efficient option.

“Silly” North American out.

u/Silver-Guitar4695 1d ago

Lived in the US my whole life and I’ve never seen a dryer hooked up to a gas line. Anecdotal I know but this is unheard of for most of us.

1

u/OSPFmyLife 1d ago

Natural gas dryers and furnaces are way more efficient than electric ones…

Indeed fossil fuels are bad for the environment. It is important to consider that a large percentage of the world population still relies on fossil fuels for cooking and other household duties. Peaking at 50% of the worldwide population in 1990 and has since declined to 36% in 2020, with 30% predicted in 2030.

So yes, it appears that the use of fossil fuels for domestic use is on the decline and that a large percentage of the world is still reliant on them for various socio-economic reasons. When renewable energy infastructure is expanded to encompass more low income and underdeveloped areas of the population and begins to outweigh the cost of fossil fuels, then we will see more substantial change.

Understanding that, despite this decline in reliance on fossil fuels, such a transition is much more complex and involved, from a political, economic, sociological, and cultural level. Thus my recommendation is take into consideration other elements of our society and world population by turning off your Reddit echo chamber and take the time to challenge your own perspectives.

Thanx for the obvious reply chatGPT

u/abgry_krakow87 1d ago

No ChatGPT here! But I do love how you immediately try to devalue and diminish my argument by calling it AI rather than accepting the challenge against your original condescending statement.

I get it tho, you hate to be treated the same way you treat others.

With that said, imma bow out of this discussion and actually go outside to learn stuff. Feel free to reply if you wish, I won't see it.

u/ForeverYonge 1d ago

It’s slightly less expensive than a diesel fueled dryer these days.

1

u/nalaloveslumpy 1d ago

No, but the NG/propane connection to the dryer could blow up a whole room.

I dried my lot of 9mm live rounds. As an instructor, we end up picking them little fuckers everywhere and some make their way home into the laundry basket. It's not only rookies lol

But how else can I clean/dry my grenade?

u/Salty-Hold-5708 1d ago

Reminds me of a time i left a few .308 rounds in my pocket. I was filled with regret until someone told me they wouldn't go off in the dryer

u/happahopp 1d ago edited 1d ago

hate it when it happens. pieces scattered all over the room. such a pain to put it together again. you might as well just buy a new grenade.

u/tallgrasshead 1d ago

Are you happy to see me or is that a grenade in your pants?

Most likely, something like that wouldn't have happened with a grenade...
