So cool you work on submarines that is extremely cool, I am in a way different industry, mining. Jeez I wished we had your safety record of only one lost submarine. Our industry has gone through a couple of mines in the same period.

But wow, how does the safety of submarines compare to other industries, granted outside of war times, like compared to trains or even other seafaring vessels

Ok it probably was prepreg now that I think back, but I saw the application video where the just rolled it on no vaccume bags to remove any voids or cavities

Usually these program’s rules seem very tedious and restrictive and I can easily see one person looking at this and think they are in place to stifle innovation and keep the little guy out.

I remember how he said to not have regulatory approval because of of this or that, but why not get a regulatory expert to have a look, might not approve your vessel but might show clearly missed safety critical blindspots.

But these rules exist for a reason, they where usually written in blood, it’s how I know this incident added rules to your SUBSAFE program.

I think this was the original sin, the root cause. One man’s vanity and arrogance, which made him blind to his own shortcomings. He build something great, let us not lie, but we can clearly see in hindsight the obvious truth. Well if what people that know way more than I do are right, the vessel imploded quicker than the neurons in your brain, so it must’ve been an quick painless death

There’s how you spell the word

I have worked in underground mines, and this scenario of being bolted inside gives me way more cluster phobia than any experience I have had

I have no issues with the controller either think it was a great addition, were I had a gripe is that it was the only way to operate the vessel, so not an addition but the sum total of controls.

Like if you were bolted into a vehicle, with no way to interact with the outside except a tiny window and only a game controller, it is a lovely piece of efficient engineering and does everything you need, but if this controller maybe gets damaged for example it’s cable was unfortunately pinched off by someone’s shoe. When you realise at a 1000m the closest thing to a god is that controller working and taking you safely back to surface in time or being stuck and hoping the guy who got you into the mess, that his, only other plan the dissolvable ropes on the weights actually work and you get to surface and get found and unsealed before air runs out.

Was the issues not multiple, like the carbon fibre hul not made using vacuum technologies but just like roll on the sheet and some epoxy in a warehouse, that carbon fibre being strong tensile wise but not compression wise, the titanium carbon fibre interface and their different stress deformations due to pressure, having the Titanic OST playing the whole time, like multiple safety shortcuts and maybe using a game controller as your only form of any interaction, like what happens if some kid bites the cable or something

Yeah cinnamon, they have the balance of just enough customisation if you want to fiddle and plain enough that a noob can just start working with it

Yeah, it’s a nice almost out of the box and getting started distro. I have tried Arch and Manjoro about 8 years ago, not for me, nice customisation but it is really too bleeding edge with the rough edges that go with it. After trying a crap load of distros I like the boringness of Mint

Thanks

Imagine a ±6GHz CPU with 3D cache. Now we just have to wait for LTT to fuckup the graphs
