Vampire Panties posted:you would think there would be a more robust backup system for a 200m dollar floating apartment complex Pretty much every about cargo shipping is ruthless margin optimization and insurance tolerances. The best example of this is piracy. It’s significantly cheaper to pay the occasional ransom or for insurance to bail out some containers or a ship than do anything about piracy. Real guns and security increases operations costs, training, and insurance. The same goes for any better process or technology. If it is not better financially at scale, nothing is changing.

Heh, NYTimes managed to dig up this expert.quote:In some bridges, engineers may elect, instead of fendering, “the alternative of making the pier exceptionally strong,” said Shankar Nair, a structural engineer with over half a century of experience who is a member of the National Academy of Engineering. But the visual evidence so far, he and others said, suggested that the pier was simply not strong enough to survive the collision.

This of all been prevented if they had just built a taller bridge that the ships could of used to go over the other bridge.

Build the bridge at sea level. Then build a ship elevator with a fun slide for the ship to go back down.

Why tf did they build the bridge on the water, where the boats are??? What did they expect would Happen??? No way to avoid this, says only place (the water) where this happens.

Lmao imagine blaming this on foreign crew, you’d have a stroke if you saw the condition of the average American flagged and crewed ship. It’s absolutely appalling what the coastguard waves through for the home team while being complete fascists with everyone else.

I'm not on twitter, but facebook has been a surprising lack of conspiracy posts about this. In fact, I haven't seen a single one as yet. I'm hoping to use it as an excuse to prompte my "its to take your attention away from Kate Middleton's body TRIPLE" rumor.

These type of cargo ships are stacked so high that it's acceptable for some containers to fall overboard.

I've been wondering if perhaps the second power loss may have been a desperate attempt to "re-boot" a system that had come back on line badly after the first recovery. It really seems to start veering when they re-gain power the first time, and the second power loss doesn't seem as total as the first Do we know what sort of propulsion the Dali uses? Is it one or more screws mounted conventionally on a shaft with steering from a rudder... or dose it use steerable electric pods powered by generators? Could the first recovery have bought those pods back on line asymmetrically or have kicked their direction out of centre?

Tallest person in the world at the moment is apparently 251 cm, so like a regular sized slingshot and rock would probably do if they went on a rampage or something.

Cable Guy posted:It really seems to start veering when they re-gain power the first time It's been pointed out earlier with internet ship telemetry that the "veering" isn't as big as it looks like from that shot, it's a camera angle thing. But yes they were probably trying to restart the engines ASAP and bypassing all the normal procedures for an engine failure, which is why the second power loss.
