I'm sure the staff/team were aware they were cutting corners and not following regulations, and Im sure the CEO had instilled a "Dont talk to cops" policy as far as Govt agencies, including the Coast Guard and Navy, and whoever. They probably were aware for whatever reason it had imploded. They were then also stupid enough to talk to the media about it.

Bad Purchase posted:everyone who made fun of the controller needs to sheepishly admit they were wrong now We don't know that, didn't you see the sharp protruding nipple things they'd hotglued to the sticks? Maybe they let the 19 year old play some doom on the way down because he was bored and after a particularly stupid death he got frustrated and threw it - nipple first - directly at the window which was pierced and cascaded into the implosion event.

Eric Cantonese posted:PPP loans were intended to help small businesses pay their bills and their employees during the Covid-19 pandemic, especially given the fallout from all of the lockdowns. The program was definitely gamed, but if you were actually using them as intended, you were eligible for loan forgiveness. Turns out nobody cared if you actually kept employees on, which was the program's supposed intention

So wait the sub just blew up like 1200 feet down from the surface? Which is 300 higher than it's rating Lmfao the hubris

Sure, be it a tidal wave from a meteor/earthquake, or plane that will smack into it from 40000 foot up. Thing is, it will have to seek me out, as I won't be dumb enough to try to enter it past knee high on the beach. And definitely not in a car sized pringles can.

Maybe they realized something was wrong and tried to ascend but couldn't due to lag. You can't prove it didn't happen.

well I hate to break it to everybody but you know another thing that a real professional sailor would have are various recoverable logging devices so people can know exactly how you did or didn't gently caress up while you were floating out there alone . but now here we have Stockton hopefully there's something in that debris field that somehow tells us it really was the window. I want to know the modes of failure very badly

Archonex posted:I should also add that this is in line with the support vessel's crew behavior prior. When they lost the sub for five hours during the CBS report they cut internet access to the ship to keep the CBS reporter from tweeting out for help to the outside world. - $250,000 a ticket - A cheap Bluetooth Logitech controller prone to disconnects and failures. - Tiny bolts holding the hatch in place. - Using carbon fiber for the hull and not titanium. - The acrylic porthole was only rated for 1,500 meters. - Firing (and suing!) the safety engineer for refusing to certify the sub. - Refusing to x-ray the carbon fiber after pressure testing. - On one of the excursions, one of the impellors was installed backward. - They "fixed" it by using the controller at a 90-degree angle. - The CEO refused to hire industry experts and wanted "new innovative blood." - The CEO removed audio contact with the support vessel because it was too noisy. - The support vessel knew they imploded for three days without telling anyone. - PPP loan forgiveness. - Governments and companies spend millions on trying to dredge up a few techbros while at the same time flipping over boats in the Mediterranean and leaving 750 people to drown - Active hull monitoring system was acoustic system that most likely gave warning only milliseconds away from disaster. - Tiny bolts holding the hatch in place were most likely corroding carbon fiber. - Flammable materials onboard was a fire hazard. - Ballast was bunch of pipes attached via hooks to side of sub. - Toilet was a single ziploc bag in a metal box that you cant move. - Toilet was located Infront of the only window.

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:So wait the sub just blew up like 1200 feet down from the surface? Which is 300 higher than it's rating the submersible as built and operated, had no rating. some of the components had individual ratings - like the acrylic front dome window - its manufacturer says it would be safe to use to about 1,300 meters (~5,000 feet), or less than 40% of the depth of the Titanic. the carbon fiber hull had no particular rating. the electric thrusters and other external components looked to be off the shelf standard parts and so they each presumably also had various ratings. I don't think the sub imploded just 1,200 feet down. More like at least three quarters to the bottom, considering it was on the way down and 1 hour and 45 minutes into its nominal 2-hour descent. I assume the descent rate would be more or less constant. Titanic is at 12,500 feet.
