ngl the thought of looking at the titantic while taking a poo poo sounds pretty cool

dying a horrible death 2 miles under ocean does not sound cool

Safety? Who needs it, just don't be stupid
Insurance? gently caress it, just a waste of money
Health coverage? Just don't get sick
Regulations? Just government fat cats getting in the way
Laws? Pff, don't get caught
Retirement? Eh, never gonna retire, gonna stay young and invincible forever

The uruk-hai defender has logged on.
I can't get over the fact that according to David Pogue, the journalist who did a story on the company a few years back, they "considered" adding a beacon after the sub got lost for five hours but didn't actually do it.

MY OPINION IS SEERS OF THE THRONE PROPAGANDA IGNORE MY GNOSIS-IMPAIRED RAMBLINGS

Alive or dead, if they recover the sub the inside of that sub is liable to look like something out of Event Horizon's crew logs if that's true.

I wouldn't want to hear Celine Dion on repeat for even 1 hour, never mind 96 or whatever number it is.

don't feel bad for the crew, if they're still in there they probably passed out or died from carbon monoxide poisoning long ago

but those speakers are still playing celine dion on loop, and a bunch of naval officers at reconnaissance stations have to keep listening for days until the battery finally runs out

I looked at a submarine tweet and got hit with blaring audio from an ad. I don't usually use twitter but is this normal? I thought the world got together and eliminated the idea of Internet ads with auto playing audio like 20 years ago.

You follow the path
fitting into an infinite pattern.

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.



The answer here is, "internet at that depth not possible to deliver except either comedy sonar option or via bluegreen laser," which should beget an interesting set of talking points and possible satellite improvements considering what I've posted itt so far.

This is too poetic to be reality

Man builds submarine, fires safety engineer who says it will sink, claims safety regulations are for chumps and he's too smart for his sub to sink
->
Man offers submarine tours of a boat that famously sank after ignoring its safety engineers and declaring itself unsinkable
->
Passengers all die while listening to a looped repeat of the soundtrack from the movie where this exact same thing happened
