titanic gawker submersible still missing.

to put it further into perspective,  when the submersible imploded, each unit of air in the submersible the size of a airline carry on suitcase is compressed to the size of a ping pong ball.

-and what everyones nana has learned from the teevee tubes and hate radio since, is that wokism is what made the sub go pop, and that it's all..somehow...Joe Bidens fault.

I don't think I'd pick a fight with a motherfucker if I believed he could pop subs with his woke.

Ya better back off with the nana slams.  






...course my grandkids call me Gigi

That's what my kids call my gran. Nana, you see, is for the "other" granny. The married in one, lol.

Funny...oldest grandchild's other grandmother is Nana (but said with a bit of a sneer) and the two in SC have Nana Chelle.  Not sure what my bonus granddaughter calls her other grandmother.

the vaunted safety system oceangate claims will automatically detect problems with the pressure hill and surface the submersible will actually not detect any defects in the pressure hill, it can only detect failure after the failure is already in progress,m, and once failure is underway implosion would literally be milliseconds away.

[Rev. Rye]

The CEO of the company who built the submersible was on board. He is on record of having said: "At some point safety is just a waste. If you wanna be safe, dont get up in the morning". Good riddance.

He could have added, 'If you wanna be safe, don't ride in my submersible.'

You kid, but that’s exactly what he did. According to a former passenger, just to get on the boat that monitors the Titan, you had to sign a massive waiver, one that lists all the many ways you could die on the voyage, and even mentions death three times on the first page alone, even mentioning that it was  an "experimental" vessel "that has not been approved or certified by any regulatory body, and could result in physical injury, disability, emotional trauma or death".

I legit thought you were kidding, but apparently, this is real somehow.





Evidently, they were willing to look for this old speech (and ignore that he was talking mainly of age and not race or anything else), but not willing to take the five seconds of looking on Wikipedia to find out that even that aspiration didn't actually pan out, since the two crew members, well, they weren't 50-year-old white men; they were 61-year-old and 77-year-old white men.

Either that, or the right-wing Anti-Woke Mind Virus has reached the "Ubisoft Goes Steamworks Bye-Bye Always On DRM" phase.

Apparently the carbon fiber pressure hull of the previous iteration of the titan submersible continuously creaked, banged and groaned even as it stayed at titanic’ s depth.    Some noise is not unexpected when a submarine or submersible changes depth because changes in water pressure compresses or relax the strain on the pressure hull causing it flex, expand or contract, which can also have an effect on the interior and exterior fittings.    But for a pressure hull to keep making noises when pressure is constant implies continued build up of deformation even without pressure change.    That Implies the composite material of the pressure hull is gradually accumulating permanent deformation and damage.

A properly designed steel or titanium pressure hull, like those on every deep sea manned submersible in the world except4 Oceangate’s Titan, that operated within its designed limit should not exceed yield stress anywhere and thus not be subject to any accummulated damage from repeated use.
