a 3km rope tethered to top could've saved them.
literally that's how high tech you have to be, but they are idiots who went with the "oh nothing bad will ever happen! safety schmaftey!"
can't believe these people are so rich yet so stupid. Like even people in 1600's, uneducated, were smarter than this. This retard killed 4 people and shame on govt for not requireing any certificaitons or standards. Yet I get a speeding ticket just like that.

basically, a really smart failsafe, to get the sub back to the surface in case of catastrophic power failure.

Always over engineer well beyond the operational requirements, so that if something goes wrong, nobody loses their lives.
Cry more about it, but it's completely valid to **** on him, after he got people killed. Regardless if he was actually woke or just cheap and using woke as an excuse, the existence of woke got these people killed. Always hire based on competency, not quotas or wokeness.

Just wanted to cut corners and use minorities, women, or younger guys that are too excited about getting a job in their field to call him out.
Likewise I see liberals on Twitter happy that someone richer than them died or saying chit like no one would care if it were a poor person etc. Overall some people are focused on the wrong things everytime something like this happens. We honestly don't deserve the internet. Can't think of a single situation recently where politards don't insert their perceived victimization.

But I'll bet anything there are still people that would be willing to go down in a similar ship next month.

Just lol-too late & the Americans sent a plane too small for it anyway.
In the past few hours two ROVs, remote operated vehicles, have descended to help in the search for the Titan. However, efforts to fly out another ROV - called Juliet - belonging to the Guernsey-based deep-sea survey firm Magellan have hit a snag. It was initially loaded late this morning onto a US military aircraft at Jersey Airport but they struggled to fully get it on, according to Magellan's chief executive Richard Parkinson. That means they now have to take if off and wait for another aircraft to arrive.

I'm sure they're using strictly calibrated wrenches too.

The only thing I could guess would go wrong here is because he's using the extension, maybe it's undertorqued at the bolt, but I presume they've accounted for this.

That is the level of stupid here.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.
