Titanic tourist submersible goes missing with search under way

[Beautiful Gunt]

Have had my logitech controller for many years now. Is it perfect? No, but is a fully functional game controller that plays fun games really well like Spongebob battle for bikini bottom. Any attempt to degrade it over this isn't being fair.

Jokes aside I’ve had mine from the year 2009 and it still works perfectly () fine. They must have bought some chinky nigger off brand.

"OMG my boss kept asking me if I checked the hull integrity and I told him that asking me to work was soooo stressful and I don't understand why I can't just do this from home so I can take care of my pandemic puppies and meet up with my friends at the marxist coffee place down the street from the houseless camp"

Good job, now get back in the kitchen.

all the women in red can stay, the rest get tossed over board. the good thing about being aboard a ship is the women in red wont say no, because of the implications.

I think you mean this one actually.

A used Steel Battalion controller probably costs more now than the entire rest of that "submarine".

You're all wrong, this is the optimal sub driving equipment

Its fascinating to me how any ounce of pity is washed away by knowing who the victims are. Such a horrifying way to go and yet people keep memeing these guys all over the place

offspring of billionaires are down there at the bottom with politicians, influencers and pedophiles in the sympathy scale

Could have been a bunch of rednecks too and everyone would be pointing and laughing too. This is very much a stupid game gives stupid rewards situation except with a submarine.

 

[Corpun]

What I don't get is that it looks like they actually went down there from some of the promo footage of the sub. Either they swapped out with a dif sub or robot to film that shit or the few dives they've done they never bothered checking on the condition afterwards.

Wither way fucking hilarious how this blew up because of a retard boomer CEO.

I can actually totally believe that the surviving widows and kids are seething more at their husbands/sons/brothers being absolutely made complete fun of by every fucking person (except Matt Walsh but he's clearly a lizardjew) on the face of the goddam planet than the fact that they're now like everyone's favorite Pokemon trainer: Misty.

NO THIS

Could have been a bunch of rednecks too and everyone would be pointing and laughing too. This is very much a stupid game gives stupid rewards situation except with a submarine.

This is totally a "hold my beer and watch this" scenario, and it being a billionaire retard makes it even funnier.

They could have survived if they had the English knob, just saying

That's way too bulky for that small of a sub. You need something that's gonna make optimal use of the space:

 

[HERE YOU GO]

The Titanic sits 3,800m

subnautica didn't even go much more than 3,000m and there were sea monsters and lava pools.

 

[Night Crawler]

I watched another video about it from this guy. He calls it an insulting predictable failure.

Then you have this rich old fucktard who wanted to go down in Russian DSV's (Deep Submergence vehicles). Do you know how many normal submarines the Russians have sitting at the bottom of the ocean? Lots of them. No fucking way in hell would I ever get into Russian DSV. They can't even keep normal submarines operating. No thank you.

That there is pure treasure. I will die hunting for that remote control. I will name my sub Indissolubili sociavit. Loading up on hubris is necessary when venturing around the Titanic wreckage, it's now tradition.

That's a funny meme.

I don't know what all the hate is about for Logitech controllers. I have been using the WIRED ones for playing computer games (mostly emulators) for a decade now and have only had a couple wear out. Shit, the current one I am using I have had for at least 4 years now and it still works great. I just mashed my way through Donner Party last night. Thank you, Logitech, for helping me navigate Chris Chan through Ke$ha's anus!

P.S. I think it is hilarious that there is more interest in the controller and preferred sandwich companies on this thread now than the retards in their homemade submarine.

They are fine for video games but you don't want to trust your life to a mini sub at 12,000 feet below the sea surface piloted with a third party xbox controller. Not even with an official Xbox controller.

Huh I figured it imploded when the story first broke. That whole "THEY HAVE THIS MANY HOURS OF OXYGEN LEFT!" countdown was fucking retarded and my family fell for it. Told them the same day "That thing imploded. They're chunky salsa men feeding the fish and crabs of the deep." and they got pissed at me for being a pessimist. Ain't pessimism, it's realism. The same thing has happened to better built subs so why wouldn't it have happened to this glued together, carbon fiber shitheap? Everyone of them was an absolute retard to get into the thing when they saw it. How they thought that thing could survive the crushing depths of the abyss I will never know.

They probably never even got to be chunky salsa. They were vaporized. If the fish got to taste them at all it was whatever fluid remained of them that passed through their gills. That was about it.

Hope the next billionaire disaster is a space tourist rocket incident.


I would piss on their carbonized body.

That last space shuttle that blew up in 2003 I think it was the Columbia. There was an Israel astronaut on board. It was their first astronaut. All they found of him was charred skull. I think on a highway in Texas. He died over Louisiana and Texas. That's how fast it was going. He got to die over two states. Totally worth it.

Oh yeah? If he's so great where's my Robotic Sentry Guns?

I want terminators.

not surprised they are dead especially after hearing about how poorly designed the sub was. i have no issue with people wanting to explore the ocean or look at shipwrecks.

in fact i fully believe we need to explore the oceans more. but much like everything else in this world dont fuck with it if you are not prepared. its why ships will have emergency power and other stuff in the case something goes wrong.

i might be wrong about this one but i am pretty sure submarines now are supposed to be sent as deep as possible to time how long it takes before implosion or any form of damage occurs.

testing and repairs are not something you fuck around with. which is why i really dont feel bad about the people who died in this thing. even if you think about it as if they were all lied to by the owner who just convinced them that it was totally safe and cool. they had no business being there in the first place. just because you have the money to do something does not mean you should do it.

Rich people are mostly shitbags. Don't feel bad about them dying. The more of them that die the better off the world will be.

The real problem is that they knew the sub imploded but wasted a shit ton of money looking for people that didn't even really exist anymore.

My buddy and I sat on my patio with a bag of weed and watched and riffed The Abyss last night. Just felt like the proper way to honor those we lost.

I watched Das Boot for the first time, as well as the documentary James Cameron made about going to the Mariana Trench.

Deep-sea Challenger is an amazing machine. I found a good Twitter thread comparing it to the groversub I'll have to link if I find it again. There's a reason Deep-sea Challenger can only fit one passenger despite being roughly the same size as groversub (need all that space for important equipment, especially life-support shit).

Nah they need something far less reliable.

 

[Blue Miaplacidus]

Deep-sea Challenger is an amazing machine.

the challenger unlike this piece of shit had actual innovations that have since been copied and improved for other DSVs. Like the penetrating comm cables that provided reliable transmission through the hull and the thrusters. However the core design didn't stray too far from what has worked for almost a century now. The pilot sphere was 2.5" thick steel, not fucking carbon fiber.

It's not amazing, but it's worth a watch for people who haven't seen the doc, and it's free on youtube. You can also watch the pilot sphere be forged, heat treated, welded, and pressure tested within the first 5 minutes.

Implying they had the space to use it. The mental image of them having to play twister to pilot the sub is funny.
