But that’s like… anti-consumer dude. These guys are nihilists.

Shreddit my account yesterday. Fun time ;)

Yeah I absolutely understand that. But that wireless part id what gets me man. Why add so many points of failure? I’m just so mind blown that they were okay with using such off the shelf components.

I’ve watched the Deep sea challenge documentary maybe 6-7 years ago… and IIRC everything on that sub had to be rigorously tested and custom made. They made sure that the sub was prepared for the worst. They reduced the no of failure points as much as they could. “Always assume anything or everything that can go wrong, will go wrong” was kind of their philosophy.

So I always assumed that, every other sub and expedition will be treated the same. It’s like sending astronauts to the moon.

Wait whaaaaaaat? They seriously used wireless PC controller for thrust and control surfaces?

Oh my god. If that’s true that might be the most brain dead thing I’ve ever read today. Can you please give me a source, I have to know more about this now. :0

Minecraft?

This is the way.

The host of the instance owns/runs the server for any instance. There is no money to be made. The servers stay up because people donated or the instance owners paid for it.

Edit: the right way of saying it is… the instances, at least the bigger ones, are crowd-funded.
