Quote HistoryQuoted: This could be true, and perhaps some selection bias. Meaning, unhappy people are more likely to be online than spending quality time in the real world. <<< notes my own 20,000 posts and wonders if there is a need for some self reflection Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Just a casual observation but those that seem to gleefully take part of it at any chance that they can get, are either living in a high stressful job and need a way to vent out to feel better about themselves or are living shitty lives and need an escape to mock at the unfortune of others. Sometimes we get to see those shitty or stressful lives being lived because they're going to inevitably post about on here or in team asking for privacy but have no issues with the public seeing them mocking dead people here in GD. This could be true, and perhaps some selection bias. Meaning, unhappy people are more likely to be online than spending quality time in the real world. <<< notes my own 20,000 posts and wonders if there is a need for some self reflection Lots of hobbies to do and people to spend that time with, we all should make the time for that instead of on here and other medias. Its already a messed up world with so much hate already. Why contribute to it? Makes no sense and is a bit appalling to seeing those wanting to participate in it. Very sad lives being lived with those people. |

I'm sickened too. I'm sickened because Stockton Rush the CEO of OceanGate hated guys like me.
He hated old white guys. He hated me and I dont care if people make fun of him and his stupidity. And I don't care if people don't like me. I've been hated for years and I'm used to it. |

I don't know if its been said.
The "media" covers bullshit stories like this one 24 hours a day for a week. In reality 87% of the populous doesn't give a damn. Its just garbage media coverage. Meanwhile the world is burning to the ground. Government is stomping innocents like mad and the media is twiddling their thumbs. And somehow "we are the bad guys". We are just abused children of alcoholic media trying to get by while the piss on us and tell us its raining. Any "university", that offers a "journalism" course should just call is what it is. "Cock sucking". |

What I don't think I'll ever understand is these multimillionaires/billionaires whatever, were fairly sharp dudes who probably did tons of risk analysis all the time to get to that station in life.
Then someone comes along and says hey for a quarter mil I'll take you down to 12,000 feet under the ocean in this carbon fiber tube. I would have thought that would push alarm bells like crazy to them. Guess not. https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxbusiness.com%2Ftechnology%2Ftitan-sub-tragedy-billionaire-jay-bloom-says-he-son-were-offered-seats-that-shahzada-dawood-son-19-took Las Vegas billionaire real estate developer Jay Bloom revealed this week that he and his son had been offered two seats on the ill-fated Titan submersible but said he declined to join the expedition over safety concerns and scheduling issues. ================== He also included several text exchanges with Rush, including one in which he informed the OceanGate co-founder, "My son’s friend researched what could go wrong and put a little scare in him. I’m trying to talk him down. He’s excited, but scared about the danger," after Rush had asked him when the two might be available. Rush responded he was "happy to have a video call with him. Curious what the uninformed would say the danger is and whether it’s real or imagined." The billionaire first shared that he had been invited on the expedition earlier in the week, when the submersible was still missing. "So this is crazy," he wrote, "I got invited to go on this dive. If I accepted, I would’ve been one of the five onboard right now." His texts also showed that Rush had offered him a "last-minute" price of $150,000 rather than the standard $250,000 for a space on the Titan. |

Quote HistoryQuote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: https://www.foxnews.com/media/online-mockery-titanic-submersible-leaves-cultural-observers-sickened-garbage-dump-vile-commentary The tragic saga of a submersible that went missing during a voyage to see the wreckage of the Titanic came to an end on Thursday, as the five passengers aboard were declared dead following an apparent implosion of the small vessel. But the story that captivated the planet, in part due to the ongoing fascination with the Titanic shipwreck, also revealed an ugly underbelly on social media of mockery and even disdain for those aboard. "Like a digital Tower of Babel, social media is evolving into an increasingly ugly and chaotic space — a real-time repository for our worst impulses, uninspired musings, scatalogical humor and ill-formed thoughts that should be kept to ourselves," Los Angeles Times staff writer Jessica Gelt noted. It is an online Mall of America: vast, vacuous, relentlessly commercial and soul-sucking. And in a time of immense crisis — political, ecological, social — it has become a garbage dump of vile commentary publicly aired because that’s just what we do now." The U.S. Coast Guard confirmed Thursday that a debris field found about 1600 feet from the bow of the Titanic is the missing OceanGate Titan submersible that was carrying the passengers. For the past week, there had been hope that the vessel could still be found intact before oxygen ran out. During that time, with news coverage of the possible rescue mission saturating the airwaves, a number of factors contributed to it becoming ripe for acidic social media commentary and jokes. And while dark humor and mockery didn't change the fates of those aboard, it was still a sad reflection to some cultural observers about modern humanity. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/1874/IMG_4923_jpeg-2861267.JPG Who is going to be responsible for the 8D and 5 Why?

We don’t need any of that traditional hard work, rigor, or discipline. In fact, fuck the laws of physics, and failure analysis can go suck a cock.” Except they forgot the universe doesn’t give a shit.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I am just a layman and not a seaologist, but it seems pretty clear that once the implosion happened, they should have just held their breath and swam into the Titanic to find a trapped air pocket. Yeah, they went from 15 PSI to 6000 PSI in a nanosecond. They superheated compressed air probably flash incinerated everything in an instant before the water got to it. At least they couldn't have possibly known it happened. Just poof. Gone. |
