This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

Oh Jesus, the kid knew this was a bad idea before he even got on the sub but did it for his dad, who didn't know any better :yikes:

My play it safe was afraid to dive. He packed his Xbox controller and kissed his mom goodbye. He waited his whole drat life just to take that plunge and as the sub crushed in he thought, “well isn’t this nice?” Isn’t it ironic… don’t you think?

people saying its normal to use that controller are absolutely hosed btw. unlike a video game where you can set them down or literally throw them in the case of Stockton rush because it might fall in such a way as to maneuver the sub in some way which kills you. You can bind a button that you have to hold down but now it becomes unintuitive and uncomfortable. It's not even waterproof lol. I don't care that it's not what killed him it's going on the list. this is after I watched the tweet where he explains throwing the controller around to people and lets them drive

Stockton should be at the top of every engineering failure powerpoint they give at all the engineer schools. right next to tacoma narrows, challenger, rbmk reactors etc.

Yeah I don't disagree with this

Like the whole using a controller does make sense, in that video games involve an altered 3 dimensional movement schema and intuitive controls, and for this a RC controller or video game controller is at least understandable.

What isn't is the cavalier attitude

Like you say "we use an Xbox controller" and I'm imagining a hardened thing on stick like at a 90s McDonald's or W/E that has been tested and calibrated by a technician

Not a thing you are throwing round on a sub and giving to the crew to drive the groversub around on with Madonna tits
