All I can think about is the resources and time wasted recovering the puddles of these rich bozos from a submersible they signed a waiver to board, a waiver which noted it was an untested, experimental vehicle
A vehicle which was piloted with a fucking logitech controller of a model I owned that was absolute dogshit, but I bought because I was cheap and poor
The Logitech control pad, cheap and shitty as it was compared to something better or even purpose-built, was probably the least problematic issue with that sub.
The son was basically still a kid, he’s the only one I really feel bad for.
The old man apparently knew that the submersible was made of crap and extremely dangerous. The fact he didn’t think to maybe warn the others makes it hard to feel any kind of sympathy for him.

It was more what it represented
If they couldn’t even spring for a decent usb controller you could get in a Best Buy in 2015, what else were they not spending on
Yeah, that’s a very good point.

I may be going off an op-ed piece, but I heard that the kid didn’t want to be on that sub and his dad pretty much pushed him into going.
This ended up being debunked iirc
