I agree, definitely for those safety-related critical components.
Got a separate sonar monitor that needs a controller to navigate menus? Sure a Logitech F710 would work for that. For actually controlling the entire sub? Definitely not.
There is a good reason engineers specify single points of failure so as to mitigate them in the design phase.
Move fast and break things isn’t the right philosophy to have when you’re leagues under the sea and a failure can be absolutely catastrophic lol.
Ave, Caesar!
The original guy in that company had such hubris that it amazes me that he was an engineer at one point. Choosing materials for a submarine that didn’t fit the role (carbon fiber sucks at compression), going cheap on those parts (Boeing QC-lot rejected carbon fiber lol), over-reliance on commercial-grade components like the gamepad for submarine control, and the general “safety is overrated” mentality that eventually hoisted his own petard.
The submarine wasn’t designated seaworthy by any third party organization and even independent engineering analysts said years prior that structural failure was less of an if and more of a when.

They can get cockroaches, but the nozzle has to be like 2.54 cm or less away from it otherwise the velocity dropoff is too great.
What if they’re in Britain or any of the left-hand drive countries?
Plan 9 from Bell Labs says hello.
Can’t infect a filesystem if it’s so fundamentally different from any others (including Unix) out there.
Waze likes to pull this sort of dumb shit all the time.
Like yeah, maybe it’d save me a minute or two but I’d rather wait to take a left turn at a protected left turn light than try to cross 3 lanes of opposite traffic from some obscure side street.
I used to be able to easily find stuff I was looking for on the first page of the search results. That doesn’t really happen as often now.

The least they can do is put googly eyes on it. C’mon, bare minimum effort lol.
SHOIGUUUUUUUUUU!!!
How is that dude not stark-raving mad at this point?
By this logic I can finally add pizza to my salad!
Lotion, as in it puts it on it’s skin or it gets the hose again?

Right, but at the very least the government goes through a commercial grade dedication screening for these types of things. It’s not like Norfolk Naval Shipyard just goes “eh let’s just put a X-box 360 controller from Amazon on it and call it a day.”
