I don’t really feel a need to joke about it. It’s kinda cringe. I wish this on billionaires There’s more inequality in our nation than the height of Roman empire. But at least they led troops into battle, we’re objectively worse than that. oh a few rich people are gonna die from their own hubris. Well anyway. I’m sure I’ll be super broken up about them the next time I code someone. I think I’ll be ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not celebrating, but I do find it cathartic. We’ve both seen far worse ways to die over the last few years. I don’t care at all that these rich idiots are about to implode on the ocean floor. Billionaires demonstrate everything wrong with our system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fizzzzle Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Everything I've seen says that the best case scenario is that they're on the surface somewhere, but even then they'll run out of oxygen. If they're in the depths somewhere, they likely imploded or froze to death (assuming they had no power) before oxygen was ever an issue. I hope for their sake it was implosion.

Kal-El814 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 There’s a really interesting thread on the banned site from @LadyDoctorSays about just how fucked this sub was to begin with. Apparently no part of the propulsion system had any redundancy built in? So if one of the two vertical thrusters got cooked, you’d just never be able to ascend, you’d just rotate. Why the fuck would anyone get into this thing??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the reporter who got in the ship had a very lighthearted attitude when signing the waver that he could die. Maybe they just assumed it was safe especially for how much it cost.

mclumber1 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Rich people do a lot of dangerous/stupid things - Climbing Mount Everest, for example. The number of people who have died during that climb, and left up there frozen for years or decades is pretty surreal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, they know to take it easy and relax Missing Titanic sub search continues as officials fear oxygen is running out: Live updates WWW.CNN.COM A massive search operation is underway in an area twice the size of Connecticut for the submersible that went missing Sunday — as officials fear the craft's oxygen supply could run out this morning. Follow for live news updates. Quote He said OceanGate CEO and co-founder Stockton Rush — who is aboard the sub — and the rest of the crew would have "realized days ago that the best thing they can do to ensure their rescue is to extend the limits of those supplies by relaxing as much as possible." Based on the crew members' expertise, the "window available" for rescue is longer than "what most people think," Söhnlein said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentbob Posted June 22, 2023 Author Share Posted June 22, 2023 I think someone who rode the sub said it takes 18 civets to bolt them in. They had done 17 and then for the 18th one he said was loose. Guy told him 17 would still be fine and the 18th one really didn’t matter. That sounds like something safe I’d jump into Think this was one of the writers from The Simpsons too. Quick someone check to see if they predicted this.

CayceG Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Apparently one of the pieces of debris is the tail-cone of the submarine.

Yeah, I’d rather the instant implosion. The thought of sitting in complete darkness in that tiny space with little hope just waiting to die is the part that gets me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
