Why isn't Elon swooping in, offering to build a carbon tunnel to the Titanic ("funding secured") and calling people pedos along the way? Seems like exactly his cup of tea.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I think his days of pretending to be a good guy are over.
So he can just skip the helping part, just start calling people pedos
He’s busy waging a war on trans
There’s a great punchline about boys hidden somewhere in there.
He has done it once and cannot be bothered to do the same things over and over again. Rescuing people is a solved problem after all and there is no more challenge in it.
NEXT: Hideo Kojima makes a VR Game that realistically simulates what would be to rescue the Titan, however no player managed to succeed yet, as their submersible also gets stuck in the middle of deep sea, thus also prompting a rescue operation.
One of the most bizarre non-the-onion headlines I have read in a while.
It really is
I wonder what controller his sub uses
Hey the steam controller was kind of a flop but I got one when they went on closeout at like $5 and it's actually pretty sweet. Very niche but definitely unique.
They're making a new one and calling it the "Steam Quarter-Deck"
But the real question is: is it steered by a Steam Controller?
"Great, now that we're close, use the touch pad to extend the robot arm"
They are doomed.
Steam Deck. Linux. They will need to Bing the correct magic for GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, /etc/default/grub, in order to get rid of spurious interrupts.
Too bad the Titanic is below 3000 Meters, we know he won't pass 3
If only they had sunk to 2999 meters 2: episode 2
Gaben pls
Is it time again to start praying to Lord Gaben?
Are you ready for a miracle?
Please tell me this site is a joke
This site is not a joke, and nor is the headline.
So, /c/nottheonion? We really need that
You ain't kidding, that sub his GabeNs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSV_Limiting_Factor
Had no clue Gaben ran anything besides steam, especially not a company like Inkfish. Pretty cool.
This thing would be useless in the search effort
And it's also named after GOU Limiting Factor from Iain M. Banks The Culture series!
Honestly, this is a headline I would never have expected in 2023.
What happened to James Cameron's stuff?
Deepsea Challenger isn't operational. It's a decade old and in a museum right now.
It belongs in a museum!
James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does for James Cameron. James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is James Cameron.
~James Cameron
...huh? Even DSV Alvin is still active. I'm sure there are more.
It's true that after the overhaul about 10 years ago Alvin can dive to nearly twice the Titanic's depth, but Alvin and Atlantis are in the Pacific Ocean right now
People, just trust me, Gabe Newell: it's actually really safe! It's controlled by a Steam Deck hot wired into a version of Source that runs Half-Life 2 and Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines at the same time it controls the sub. Just don't pick Malkavian on the selection screen, otherwise the lights might flicker, and the sub might malfunction, leaving you stuck deep at sea.
Just don't expect him to make a 3rd submarine guys
Would be great that Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, Rothschild, Soros and Larry Fink would went on that submarine...
