Imagine being a billionaire with the ability to build your own submarine and for your ballast system you choose a bunch of fucking metal pipes

These fuckers are so fucking cheap down to the very core of their being. I only wish it would minecraft themselves more often.

To think they actually got a swift death rather than suffocating inside a pitch black tube. Both are a hell of a way to go, I honestly feel bad for the kid that was dragged along on this doomed shit by his shithead bougie dad.

Can't believe a bunch of rich people saw this and thought ”Yep, I wanna go see the Titanic through a small cheap LCD monitor in a sub steered with the 'little brother special' controller”

[–] booty@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

no kidding, i dont even understand the point. i can see digital images of the titanic any time. if im gonna travel all the way the fuck down there to see it i want the light to reflect off the titanic and into my actual fucking eyeballs, you know what i mean?

It still cracks me up that that fucker went with a Luigi ass player 2 controller and no one even considered where else he might have skipped on monetarily.

He turned into chum before he rose up

tbf you can't stand in that tube, even more so when it violently decompresses.

[–] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you're going to spend millions of dollars on some stupid shit like this i can't understand the mentality behind not just spending a little bit more so that you can fucking stand up in it

[–] Delphinium@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Or see out of it without the use of a TV? Like wtf is the point of going down in a can? I can do this shit with a meta quest and noise cancellation. So fucking rich and you half ass a submarine, do some R&D asshole

Gamers desend rapidly as a homogenated paste

I feel like slurry that used to be a billionaire would float, but I could be wrong.

The crabs got it as it oozed out.

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

what is the context with this one?

[–] Ildsaye@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

My first guess is that it's a pressure cooker, though unlike the Titan, it pressurizes its contents deliberately.

Instant pots seem to have a good reputation, though I've seen a former roommate go through a couple of them - they are computerized and can be bricked if the building has unsteady current, as in our case of bad/old wiring. So, perhaps it could also be a play on 'innovation' making things less reliable.

Gamers supercondense

They knew it was a death trap. They were told.
