People got mad at him, too, for just giving his perspective on why it was a bad idea. I mean, the man has went to the Marianas Trench in a highly specialized, deep sea submersible. He's not talking out of his ass.
This is a board where we make punny thread titles based on movie names and character catchphrases whenever a celebrity dies. You're just desperate for something to be offended by, aren't you?
6ish minutes of engineering talk about mainly the carbon fiber and its interface with the titanium. It really makes you wonder how competent anyone designing or building this was. Also check the top few comments (I know, it's YouTube).
OMG, that is how this idiot made it? When they said carbon fiber I was not thinking it was made like that. Of course it folded. That is what it would be supposed to do when it collapses so it doesn't send shrapnel. Wow, that is like thinking you could make a duct tape submersible with some metal fittings for structure. Yes, it might work a time or two, but every time you use it you would be warping it. Carbon fiber simply does not work that way. This is the sort of thing federal farmer would make. It was actually ass backwards when you consider it. They were unlucky that thing didn't fail the first time. Considering how it was made they should be able to recover most of the parts and find what went wrong pretty easily. It will be obvious, and carbon fiber does not shatter so they should be able to recover the structure.
Everything I've read indicates carbon fiber should not be used in an application where it is subjected to extreme compression. He was infatuated with the stuff being in aerospace. Talk about confirmation bias.
There goes the whole "grooming" premise then. Good job, you ruined grooming for your fellow transphobes. They'll remember you forever.
he used it backwards. Carbon fiber is good for holding in high pressure because it does not send shrapnel out if it fails. It is also lighter than metal tanks. It also takes impacts better than a metal tank. However, it does not last forever and does need to be retired with use. from what I know it would not be geometrically aligned to maintain integrity when compressed. The molecular matrix would warp at weak points and tear. Whoever engineered this was a fucking moron because they seemed to think because it can hold in high pressures it was structurally rigid to not collapse under high pressure and that simply is not true from what I know. I could be wrong, but from what I am seeing I am not.
One minute, you're being a science showoff like this; next minute, you're all "I make boo0m-boom in my diapy-dipes!". Are you sure you're not 10 people with one password?
She is large, she contains multitudes. Honestly though, aren't we all kind of that way around here? We're a bunch of over-stimulated, undersexed nerds who have a lot of intellectual freedom.
