Rich people doing dangerous things completely unnecessarily. I'd feel differently if any of this was in the name of science.

I noticed on Twitter that Titanic is trending with Logitech. It turns out this submarine is controlled by a $29.99 gaming controller. Bear in mind this expedition costs $250,000...

That honestly doesn't seem that bad considering the likes of the US navy uses Xbox controllers for some UAV systems.

It turned into a can of Dr Pepper?

Building a submersible out of carbon fibre and ignoring safety fears….
