Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

Vital maintenance work on the sub has been going on since 2015.

However, the work is almost four years late and has overshot its budget by £300million.

So they expected the sub to be in drydock for 4 years, and now been over eight years?

No, getting submarines to sink is cheap and easy. Getting them to surface again is the expensive and difficult part.

Fake edit: the British K-class steam-powered submarines might count as expensive and easy to sink:

"Of the 18 built, none were lost through enemy action, but six sank, with significant loss of life, in accidents. Only one ever engaged an enemy vessel, K-7 hitting a U-boat amidships, though the torpedo failed to explode"

"This was made worse by the estimated maximum diving depth of 200 feet (61 m) being much less than their overall length. Even a 10-degree angle on the 339-foot-long hull would cause a 59-foot (18 m) difference in depth of the bow and stern, and 30 degrees would produce 170 feet (52 m), which meant that while the stern would almost be on the surface, the bow would almost be at its maximum safe depth."

"A dive from steam-powered surface operation normally required 30 minutes. Minimum time needed to secure the main engines, shift to battery motors and dive under emergency conditions was nearly 5 minutes"

"K15 sank at her mooring in Portsmouth on 25 June 1921. This was caused by hydraulic oil expanding in the hot weather and contracting overnight as the temperature dropped and the consequent loss of pressure causing diving vents to open. The boat flooded through open hatches as it submerged."

I’m about a million pages back and reading my way through the thread, but I had something breathtakingly stupid to share.

This is from the other day out in front of my in-laws place, where some workers were installing bollards up against the curb. This is after they had finished installing all of them. See anything wrong?

They are removing one of the bollards they had just installed because they had parked their work vehicle on the curb, and had penned themselves in.



looks like there would be juuust enough space between the pollard and the lightpole behind the vehicle though? Maybe would've need to move the trashcan but it looks like it could fit very close. Also looks like the way they came in :shrug:
