    That submersible seems to have been built with the same level of expertise dad used to put up the treehouse in the backyard. Bigger budget of course but all the same suppliers.

    Question does remain - what was that banging heard yesterday? Did they just lose electrical power and sat on the ocean floor for four days which would explain the lack of communication back and forth?

    Then the sub finally gives way to the pressure after four days of sitting down there with a shitty built vehicle.

    Sad if that’s the case. Obviously the most plausible explanation is the thing exploded right away and that’s what the authorities will stick to so they don’t look like it took way too long to mobilize.

    Why haven't we utilized this information to create a faster cooking method?

    the search efforts were always to find debris. I heard the only feasible way to recover the sub was to move a Navy ship off the coast of Boston and that thing didn't move. Did they spend millions looking for debris? Idk, maybe, but I think that's more of a guess on your part

    Someone’s lying or maybe both sides are. It is said that those vessels routinely lost communication with the mothership. This time they instantly contacted authorities?

    They also reportedly didn’t reach out to sound the alarm until it was about 8 hours in. It wasn’t publicly reported until Monday to my knowledge.

    Why would they have used so many air crafts to cover 3,000-4,000 miles of surface investigation if they knew it exploded on day one?

    I doubt it’s a coincidence that the report came out almost instantly after Dan Crenshaw and others said the search mobilization took way too long.

    Have you ever seen a documentary on him? He shot one of his competitors to death for fucking with his gas station signs.

    Hell I don't think he was even known for fried chicken yet.

    Guys. Had to delete 19 messages. Please no Politics. Don’t get this thread locked due to Trump or Musk or Biden. Thank you. Management

    You're only policing content, which is funny because that was part of the discussion.

    I didn’t see the documentary but I did know that. He was a bad ass and he didn’t start making chicken until his 60s which gives us all hope

    It makes sense though as long as it is consistent. When enemies are using social media to try to divide Americans and conquer it makes sense to limit the allowed parameters of discussion on social media.

    Limiting allowed parameters of discussion is akin to deciding what the discussion is.

    Byz. I don’t have fun when I delete messages but how do you recommend to proceed when the discussion steers into politics? I am in Turkey and I wasn’t even looking at this thread. But there were reporting on posts and if we have No Politics rule then we have to enforce it. Sorry man honestly. I know we have a mature crowd here but rules are rules and no politics.

    That's still the right choice to make in anything but a public venue. TGG is not a public venue. None of the conversation on this site is protected by the 1st Amendment.

    I can get deleting posts about Elon Musk but we arent allowed to discuss the Jets QB's use of psychedelic drugs on this Jets website. He spoke at a conference this week and its the biggest Jets story right now btw
