A friend of mine has just broken the record of 100 days living under water. He is aiming for 120 days.
i did that in vashj’ir in wow in 2010
Subnautica vibes.
If your looking for me
You better check under the sea
Cause that is where you’ll find me
Underneath the
Sealab, Underneath the water
Sealab, At the bottom of the sea.
About 4 years late, but whatever.
Why do I apparently have the entire theme song still in my brain meats? I only thought the show was ok during its original Adult Swim run, and it wasn’t even a brain wormie theme. I apparently need to go back and watch it again to see what’s up.
I am probably a minority, but I think it’s the funniest of the early Adult Swim originals.
The feng shui episode was the best one.
The jerks in Pod Six made you late, didn’t they?
Once again, your stupidity has killed us!
Ok but why?
If only they explained their reasoning somewhere… all these headlines are so inconsiderate.
It all read like technosolutionist mumbo-jumbo
What part of the opening rationale was incomprehensible?
“With current diving at 150 to 200 meters, you can only get 10 minutes of work completed, followed by 6 hours of decompression. With our underwater habitats we’ll be able to do seven years’ worth of work in 30 days with shorter decompression time. More than 90 percent of the ocean’s biodiversity lives within 200 meters’ depth and at the shorelines, and we only know about 20 percent of it.”
Yeah that’s idiotic. What would a human see that a robot can’t?
Humans are the ones tooling and retooling these units for specific purposes, which can be done far more efficiently in situ in an underwater habitation. Along with any other human activities that will be occurring, such as immediate study in a dedicated lab facility.
Ok but why? Why would anybody chose to live confined underwater? If you like airtight containers so much just build a bunker
Why would anybody chose to live confined underwater?
Why would anyone choose to live confined in space? Idk, but the ISS still exists.
Watch our oceans die before your very eyes!
This is for the oil and gas industry.
Ain’t nobody paying for an underwater habitat for researchers when all researchers do at depth is take photos and samples, which can be done by an ROV.
Oil and Gas OTOH need deep see divers to do welding and other maintenance all the time.
Ocean horizons 2.0 I hope.
Elon is probably the only superhero who could actually go there an show them all! Definitely not just any rich guy could do it.
And in 2026, deep divers will be searching for datapads to find out what went wrong.
“So we found these slugs that produce magic stem cells…”
Maybe the pact holds longer in those silos 😆
I’ve been playing lots of Oxygen not Included, so… Yeah good luck, what could go wrong?
i legit thought this was some wacky futurist article from 10 years ago that someone posted for fun
One step closer to SOMA
Ocean is tough. Tougher than floating cities. Which are more realistic as real habitable environment.
I vote for Stanford torus stations in various L points.
Or, naturally, Mars.
Before that, of course, there are plenty of locations on Earth hard to live in, but not as hard as underwater domes. They should try that.
