YSK if you're pumping at a gas station and the fuel stream ignites, DO NOT REMOVE THE NOZZLE FROM THE RECEPTACLE.
If this happens to you, keep the nozzle in place, shut off the fuel at the pump with the on/off or emergency switch, and tell the attendant who will shut off the main pump and call emergency services. Why YSK: I've seen about 69 videos of people who experience this and immediately remove the nozzle and wave the stream of fire around. This will be your first instinct and it is WRONG. To lower the chance this happening, ground yourself when you exit your car by touching the door frame.

Why is Gas Analyser never inside factory pumping station?
I'm a newer player and this is my first proper wipe; I still haven't managed to do the task where Therapist asks for a Gas Analyser found in raid. I have the pumping station key and have been 7 times; nothing has spawned there, also have not had any luck with any of my other raids/scav runs on interchange since I heard that Gas Analysers can be found there. Any advice?

I have done 36 runs with a pumping station key at Factory.
Not a single Gas Analyzer. This isn't even counting the runs I died before I could get to the pumping station. Also, night time factory seems to be where all the Bears hide at.

Kayaking Chicago River - Aeration/Pump Stations
Has anyone kayaked near the aeration/pump stations along the northwest branch of the river? If so, is it safe?
We came up to one and got a little spooked, so we turned around. I would think we could pass through the middle of the channel with no issue, but didnβt push our luck. The one Iβm specifically referring to is at Devon/Kedzie.

Does anyone else feel like they are pumping and dumping crypto in the same way they push βmemeβ stocks through the media? I feel like they arenβt flinching, because they wish to not be exposed. They have more to lose than money and take every avenue to stay solvent. We are winning, Iβm sayingβ¦.π¦πΏπ₯

Latin Dragons of South Chicago. They were original finballs but flipped to the Folk nation sometime in the mid 1990s. Their hood used extend from 83rd-88th from Commercial to Colfax, but was lost to the CVLs and Latin Kings. Today they're currently on 83rd/Muskegon, 98th/Avenue L, and 90th/Houston.
