Given that a Elon is already mad at Snopes for using that tweet to confirm that Starlink was providing them internet, I think that’s wise.

I might be thinking of a different submarine murder case (:shepface:) but IIRC a goon helped build that sub and posted about it a few years before it was involved with a murder

Oceangate was sent a letter from industry experts warning about defects and design flaws.

quote:

This letter is sent on behalf of our industry members who have collectively expressed unanimous concern regarding the development of TITAN and the planned Titanic Expedition. Our apprehension is
that the current experimental approach adopted by Oceangate could result in negative outcomes (from minor to catastrophic) that would have serious consequences for everyone in the industry.

quote:

Your marketing material advertises that the TITAN design will meet or exceed the DNV-GL safety standards, yet it does not appear that Oceangate has the intention of following DNV- GL class rules. Your representation is, at minimum, misleading to the public and breaches an industry- wide professional code of conduct we all endeavor to uphold.

I have come to discourse on the profound inequities of the American political system.

I did some back of the napkin math assuming the sub holds 2.5 meters of air which gave them roughly 6 hours past the life of the scrubbers before they die of hypoxia. I'd say for certain that if another 16 hours elapses before the sub is recovered and uncapped, they're definitely 100% dead of hypoxia, assuming no other scenario occurred like implosion or windows failure leading to instanteous drowning/crushing.

They'll be long dead by 16hrs. That's way past current air supply estimates.
