I think that Ballard's team first went to the Titanic in the 80s. Maybe even earlier since they discovered it on their secret military contract first and only went back as civilians later

Why would you even want artifacts from the Titanic anyway "Hey check out this cool snuff box I got! They brought it up from the Titanic! Isn't it cool and funky and -- wait, hang on, do you hear that kind of sound that's kind of like a moaning? No? Huh. I think I've been hearing it a lot in the night. Also, the last couple weeks my sink and shower keep backing up with rusty saltwater and I can't get it to go clear. Random lol"

well-read undead posted:wait, why would holding the controller sideways help having used the piece of poo poo controller he used 12 years ago, it doesn't have gyro controls what I assume he means is that instead of having the D-pad under your left hand and the other buttons (X/square/triangle/O or A/B/X/Y) in your right, you kinda, have the D-pad close to you and the other buttons far, and you can then use the analogue sticks at a right angle to the intended direction

yeah since it's got 2 thrusters, turning is firing them in opposite directions, forward and back are firing in the same directions. if you gently caress up and install one thruster backwards, now turn is forward/back since the old turn command would make them push in the same direction now that one is flipped. so yeah rotate the controller and keep on going, safety is for suckers

lmao did they really skip one of the bolts? for all the vacuum seals i've done it's definitely not the same, you kinda want to get all the bolts compressed nice and evenly. but since it's water and they've got tons of pressure maybe it doesn't matter.
|
# ? Jun 23, 2023 01:11 |
|
not only did they skip one of the bolts, their tightening order was just clockwise from the one they could easily reach without a step ladder all the way around.
|
# ? Jun 23, 2023 01:13 |
|
if only they'd hand-tightened all 18 bolts, maybe 350 times surface pressure wouldn't have defeated merely hand-tightening bolts
