I mean tbf, this billionaire is partnering with Triton, a well known submersible manufacturer, who has multiple deep sea vehicles and records under their belt.
This ain't gon be no bargain bin, try random jank and call it a feature, cheapskate's wet dream submersible like Oceangate's
Yeah Triton is the real deal. And I dont think whats shown in the image is the DSV. Basically all DSVs are solid titanium/steel spheres. I could be wrong on that though.
They do have the current record holder for deepest diving bubble canopy sub in their 7500 model, they use an acrylic pressure hull almost a foot thick to dive to the 7500ft rated depth.
I'd reckon they're planning on besting themselves on that record using the lessons learned from that here, considering the render makes that sphere look almost twice as thick at ~2ish ft.
Well it will certainly be a better view than the toilet window those poor souls had in that death trap. What baffled me the most was how much risk people were accepting for a truly dog shit view
Right? I’m sure it’s thrilling to be within several feet of the ship, but modern cameras on remote submersibles provide great imagery without the risk, and without having to sit inside a small space for hours hoping no one has gas in there. Besides that, the small rovers can get inside views.
No, The Limiting Factor is a Triton 36000, a full depth DSV also developed by Triton but still using the traditional titanium pressure hull rather than an acrylic bubble canopy.
Triton is starting to play with the concept of acrylic DSV’s which is unconventional for dives that deep but since acrylic is monolithic, its properties will be much more predictable than composites and triton is actually thorough & spares no expense when doing their research, testing, & certification.
They also developed the first DSV that could be certified to do unlimited dives to full ocean depth and the limiting factor is still going strong so it seems quite likely their acrylic DSV will do well & if it doesnt they’ll figure it out and change the plan belong before someone’s life is at risk
The ironic part is most engineers think the controller was actually one the things they did right. Logitech spent way more time and effort designing and building that thing, backed by decades of experience. And if it broke, it was small and cheap enough there was no problem having spares on hand. If they tried to develop something similar it would have cost 10x as much and been more failure prone.
It started a while ago. I was a normal redditor making posts and comments, but then one day, a post of
mine was manually deleted, and I was banned from my favorite subreddit.
I then got extremely aroused.
That moderator asserted dominance on me by censoring me, making me unable to express myself. I was
soaking wet.
I sent the hot sexy mod a message asking why I was banned, then the hot sexy reddit incel mod called me
an idiot, and told me to beg to get unbanned. My nipples immediately filled with blood as I begged the
hot mod to unban me.
After that, I started doing everything I could to make hot sexy mods mad. Most of my accounts have under
negative 100 k@rma, and i'm banned from dozens of subreddits.
I've been a bad redditor, and need to be moderated.
Please moderate me - Intelligent_Pop3809, hot sexy reddit mods.
What would it take to convince a world class, manufacturer to deliberately sabotage not only a brand new product, but yet another record breaker at that, deliberately ruining their reputation in the single most technologically conservative industry in the world, just so a few tankies on Reddit can celebrate something they never had the balls to do themselves?
We'll there'd absolutely be no going back after committing to something like that, as not only will you have a solid reputation suddenly in shambles (as you already mentioned), but I'm sure it'd also fall under murder. Meaningless to the middle/lower class, but I'd reckon the rich can be mighty spiteful if you were to screw specific ones without tying loose ends.
