    I was going to ask where’s Facebook’s CEO, but we all know Data can walk the ocean floor and take no damage.

      I’ve just heard that he’s signed up to a cage fight with Elon. Gonna be fun seeing Elon’s disjointed wrist after he punches through thin air

        Elon just gets triggered by water rescues / submarines and needed some attention.

        Remember when he called that hero thai navy diver guy a pedo because he said elon’s sub wasn’t useful in rescuing those kids trapped in a cave? Apparently rich people and submarine pissing contents is a thing.

        Under no circumstances will precious elon actually risk getting punched in the head, more’s the pity.

        They’re going to be both in fully padded, bubblewrapped crashproof outfits with at least three lawyers in each corner and fall away caging that disintegrates when you blow on it.

          3 lawyers on each corner might not be a bad thing, they’re never going to take the other down in a cage match of all things, but if their lawyers get involved they’re going to waste away their time and money on this conflict instead of making life harder for us!

            No the lawyers are there to punch obviously, did you really think they’d want to receive any punches themselves?

            maybe they’ll literally just let a bunch of their lawyers fight in their proxy.

            TAG TEAM LAWYERS. Like the WCW. but with retainer fees.

    While I did enjoy this meme, that’s not going to solve the problem. They would be replaced pretty quickly with people who are equally as dubious. That’s just the system we live in.

    Indeed. My only regret about this whole dying-in-a-submarine-from-hubris deal is that Elongated Muskrat wasnt also a passenger. Bezos is a douchebag too, but at least hes only being a capitalist exploiter and not an actual enabler of fascism.

      I think all someone would need to do is make a meme of elons sub with him in it, at the titanic crash site, give him a pog face then place text that says “why elon is better then bezos” and both would race to get down there first

    I found an old trash can laying on the side of the highway so I went to hardware store and bought a $3 roll of duck tape. If anyone wants to drive my new experimental uncertified submarine to the Challenger Deep hmu.

      I’m going to have to look at how you are driving it. I don’t want to see any fancy wires or anything, and I played Wave Race 64 back in the day so I’m pretty sure I can drive it if you use one of those controllers.

        If you have a hull breach in space, supposedly you have up to a few minutes to fix it or put a suit on. 4000m below the surface, you have none.

        Either one you could get trapped and suffocate, though, so I think I’m happy on land.

          I just binged The Expanse… Yeah, when the space pirates make you walk the airlock, it’s slightly less lethal than being instagibbed by implosion, but certainly far from fun.

              Not for very long, but not for the reasons countless sci-fi movies and shows have told you: you’ll neither explode nor freeze to death.

              People think of vacuum as something massive, but it’s actually just 1 bar difference.

              Atmospheric pressure is (roughly) 1 bar, which is comparable to 10 m of water. So getting put in a vacuum is like ascending from a 10 m dive.

              You don’t implode at 10 m depth, and you also don’t swell up on Mount Everest, which is roughly at 0.3 bar.

              The biggest threat to your life is the actual decompression.

              If you’re abruptly thrown into the vacuum, and you don’t manage to exhale immediately, the air in your lungs will expand and rip your lungs. Which is one of the biggest dangers of diving.

              But more likely is that it‘ll just rip the air out of your body, which probably isn’t good for either your lungs nor your intestines.

              You won’t freeze to death, because there’s no medium to transport the energy away, so you’ll only lose heat through the actual radiation, which takes pretty long. Much longer than in cold water, anyway.

              Also, your blood won’t boil, since it’s protected by the skin. Maybe the exposed areas, your eyes, your saliva.

              So, if you survive the initial decompression, your chances aren’t that bad, after all.

      I think Bill Gates is actually doing some good stuff with his foundation. I’d rather see Spez going on this adventure.
