The Oceangate CEO Stockton Rush, was a Linux user.You should be more like Stockton Rush.
>comes up with janky half-assed solutions to a serious, mission critical issue>keeps applying them in production and relies solely on them>has a constant sense of superiority over everyone>feels like he knows better than everybody else>it all ends up biting him in the ass in the harshest wayTruly, Stockton Rush was the quintessential Linux user.
>>109278239Truly the penguin powered pioneer of our time.
you know why FOSS underwater deathtraps aren't any good, because no one has paid competent white males to make it good.
>>109278239To be fair NASA had several astronauts killed. Yet you never hear about how they are incompetent. He took a risk, it didn't go well but he made it down there a couple of times didn't he?
>>109278304Look into the full report. NASA doesn't handwave away every issue like Stockton did, nor do they spare every expense possible like he did. The fact that submersible went down so many times without imploding is nothing short of a miracle with how disastrous it was. Especially with how the factory just sanded down any uneven bits of carbon fiber on the hull.
>>109278239It was less about janky half-assed solutions and more about ignoring obvious signs that shit is going wrong because muh prestige, they knew that the carbon fiber shell was visibly delaminating and audibly cracking during the previous dives
>>109278322Look into the challenger investigation, that's exactly what NASA did
>>109278330Learned from the best he did! oi!
>>109278239Linus Torvalds would have chewed him out on the regular.Pinning this on Linux devs is such powerful projection that it could turn the moon into a cinema screen.
>>109278322Nor did Stockton have unlimited access to taxpayers wallets like NASA did. What is your point? I have looked at the full reports. Stop hating on this guy forever with these stupid threads. He died. You can find many more people who died in fascinating test vehicles to hate on I am sure.
>>109278386>hatingI'm not hating on him, I'm laughing at him.
>>109278396Why not laugh at Hindenburg and all the others? Jeju Air Flight 2216, a 737 800 that was so fragile a bird could kill hundreds of people and the many many more incidents. I see a disproportionate dislike of this guy despite the big guys doing the exact same mistakes while having a lot more money to play with. You should make some threads laughing about them too. Boeing received a tenth of the hate for a couple of weeks. Your laughter is desperately needed elsewhere.
>>109278447Imagine complaining like this on fucking 4chan of all places
>>109278304You are comparing an individual to an instituion. We are always going to fall short. NASA fixes its mistakes. Stockton kept inhaling diesel fumes until his amygdala started making funny noises. He was mad as a bicycle by the end, high on his own supply of bullshit.
>>109278213>>109278239what is it with trannies who keep making strawman ops then immediately refuting it with his second post?
>>109278449this isn't your discord circlejerk, kid
>>109278213>lights from camper world >lead weights as ballast>off the shelf electronics , cameras and controllers to control the mf>running off linux mintKek we got the FOSSmersible before the FOSSmobile.
>>109278322They do hand wave away a lot of issues they probably shouldn't. Like for example adverse temperatures that aren't suitable for a launch. Caused them to lose one of the space shuttles.That is just one that caused a major incident - how many issues do they hand wave away where they get lucky and don't cause an major accident? Probably quite a few.
>>109278213Most of the computers were Windows and three of them was Linux. Windows was the main system which controlled everything and Linux only showed statistics and charts.
>>109278213totally makes sense. he probably thought having a properly engineered submarine was just bloat like a /g/tard.
>>109278959Reeee Stockton that's proprietary shit>>109278989Kek safety is bloat
>>109278239
>>109278386He died, and he took with him a young teenage kid, and some other people like an expert on the titanic or whoever it was. He doesn't deserve sympathy, he was grossly negligent and arrogant and stupid all around
>>109278213>Mint XFCE because weight>Carbon fiber pressure vessel because weightThis motherfucker was optimizing his sub so hard lmao, it's kinda based.
>>109278739KEEK>>109278213hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahaaha>>109278239keeek
>>109278213Holy shit, did they make the dashboard tools for the OceanGate submarine in fuckin tcl/tk?
>>109280104Tcl/tk is pretty rare in actual practice, more likely Python/Tk or something.
>>109278959>>109279093It failed because of a windows update.
>>109278213He was an idiot that got multiple innocent people killed.
>>109281897He is in the watery halls of the Drowned God
>>109281897>innocent peoplelol
>>109278213The software worked spectacularly. The submersible physically failed. I wonder what he used to design and test it.
>>109278239It wasn't even a janky half-assed solution if we're being real. If the faggot had two less zero's worth of network everyone would have rightly called him the suicidal retard he was instead of signing up for the most obvious one way trip in human history. You don't need to understand anything about building submarines you just have to have handled carbon fibre before to know how this would inevitably end.
>>109281897looks these retards going in the killing machine>@25:40>bonkeverything is fine
>>109283821https://youtu.be/gOjJJKld6jY?t=1535
They beat the shit out of that submersible. At one point they slammed it down so hard the front dome fell off, all the bolts sheared.They should have made a new hull each season.
What would a /g/ approved submarine looks like?
>>109284309And how many people would get killed?*
>>109284309Either you build her like a bathtub, or she's gonna turn into a sewer.
>>109278213At least it wont bluescreen, now get in the retard squisher.
>>109278239>>109278213If he had AI this wouldn't have happened fyi
>>109284333AI: "I can save him"lol
>>109278239if he used AI chatGPT would egg him on, then they would sue OpenAI for bad advice
>>109278213fucking INSANE that not only did they make this shit out of carbon fiber (known for its TENSILE strength) they made it out of unidirectional carbon fiber wound onto a drum. couldn't be me. i will give the guy props that he put his money where his mouth is and went down with the ship though
>>109278213I helped remove the instruments from his plane before his friends shredded it. The lawyer of his widow told her to destroy it since it was a kit plane despite it never having an incident since being assembled in the 80's. Such a fucking waste.
>>109284852Huh, coolI wonder why no one is in the business of parting out kit planes, seems like a sorta common thing right?
>>109285026Scraping a plane that is too expensive to repair is common, after all those parts could be used to fix other planes.Scraping a perfectly functional plane is very rare even if it's a kit plane. The guess is the lawyer was afraid of someone buying it then faking an accident to sue the widow since she is rich.
>>109284136This, they were also leaving it out in Canadian sub zero temps, which freezing moisture will shred anything to pieces when it expands.
Does this make Mint the only distro to be imploded?Neat.
>>109285041Oh I thought there was some bullshit where you can build a kit plane but you can not sell it and if you die it has to be destroyed.I was looking at 49% kits a long time ago iirc and found all thatOr maybe that was firearms
>>109278304NASA was only ever competent when they had the nazi rocket autist in charge, they've been retards since then and can't into space anymore
>>109285859mint and windows too apparently, this is why we should be all using kubuntu
>>109285943Mint's still pretty based, especially if it has XFCE on it, just weird to see the same just werks distro my retarded ass uses on a fucking submersible, you'd think he'd have something a little more hardcore for his scientific engineering usage, but I guess Linux Mint is just fine, download it, slap it on and dive.
