The Ocean Sciences Building at the University of Washington in Seattle is a brightly modern, four-story structure, with large glass windows reflecting the bay across the street.
On the afternoon of July 7, 2016, it was being slowly locked down.
Red lights began flashing at the entrances as students and faculty filed out under overcast skies. Eventually, just a handful of people remained inside, preparing to unleash one of the most destructive forces in the natural world: the crushing weight of about 2½ miles of ocean water.
In the building’s high-pressure testing facility, a black, pill-shaped capsule hung from a hoist on the ceiling. About 3 feet long, it was a scale model of a submersible called Cyclops 2, developed by a local startup called OceanGate. The company’s CEO, Stockton Rush, had cofounded the company in 2009 as a sort of submarine charter service, anticipating a growing need for commercial and research trips to the ocean floor. At first, Rush acquired older, steel-hulled subs for expeditions, but in 2013 OceanGate had begun designing what the company called “a revolutionary new manned submersible.” Among the sub’s innovations were its lightweight hull, which was built from carbon fiber and could accommodate more passengers than the spherical cabins traditionally used in deep-sea diving. By 2016, Rush’s dream was to take paying customers down to the most famous shipwreck of them all: the Titanic, 3,800 meters below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean.
Engineers carefully lowered the Cyclops 2 model into the testing tank nose-first, like a bomb being loaded into a silo, and then screwed on the tank’s 3,600-pound lid. Then they began pumping in water, increasing the pressure to mimic a submersible’s dive. If you’re hanging out at sea level, the weight of the atmosphere above you exerts 14.7 pounds per square inch (psi). The deeper you go, the stronger that pressure; at the Titanic’s depth, the pressure is about 6,500 psi. Soon, the pressure gauge on UW’s test tank read 1,000 psi, and it kept ticking up—2,000 psi, 5,000 psi. At about the 73-minute mark, as the pressure in the tank reached 6,500 psi, there was a sudden roar and the tank shuddered violently.
“I felt it in my body,” an OceanGate employee wrote in an email later that night. “The building rocked, and my ears rang for a long time.”
“Scared the shit out of everyone,” he added.
The model had imploded thousands of meters short of the safety margin OceanGate had designed for.
In the high-stakes, high-cost world of crewed submersibles, most engineering teams would have gone back to the drawing board, or at least ordered more models to test. Rush’s company didn’t do either of those things. Instead, within months, OceanGate began building a full-scale Cyclops 2 based on the imploded model. This submersible design, later renamed Titan, eventually made it down to the Titanic in 2021. It even returned to the site for expeditions the next two years. But nearly one year ago, on June 18, 2023, Titan dove to the infamous wreck and imploded, instantly killing all five people onboard, including Rush himself.
The disaster captivated and horrified the world. Deep-sea experts criticized OceanGate’s choices, from Titan’s carbon-fiber construction to Rush’s public disdain for industry regulations, which he believed stifled innovation. Organizations that had worked with OceanGate, including the University of Washington as well as the Boeing Company, released statements denying that they contributed to Titan.
A trove of tens of thousands of internal OceanGate emails, documents, and photographs provided exclusively to WIRED by anonymous sources sheds new light on Titan’s development, from its initial design and manufacture through its first deep-sea operations. The documents, validated by interviews with two third-party suppliers and several former OceanGate employees with intimate knowledge of Titan, reveal never-before-reported details about the design and testing of the submersible. They show that Boeing and the University of Washington were both involved in the early stages of OceanGate’s carbon-fiber sub project, although their work did not make it into the final Titan design. The trove also reveals a company culture in which employees who questioned their bosses’ high-speed approach and decisions were dismissed as overly cautious or even fired. (The former employees who spoke to WIRED have asked not to be named for fear of being sued by the families of those who died aboard the vessel.) Most of all, the documents show how Rush, blinkered by his own ambition to be the Elon Musk of the deep seas, repeatedly overstated OceanGate’s progress and, on at least one occasion, outright lied about significant problems with Titan’s hull, which has not been previously reported.
A representative for OceanGate, which ceased all operations last summer, declined to comment on WIRED’s findings.

So what are the caps on your drinks from Spinda's cafe made of? Magi Glass?
Guildmaster: It's crazy, because somehow pokemon know what glass is here! The first time I saw a cup I asked my Wigglytuff mama if it was made with magic or something from a dungeon, and she explained that it's sand that gets heat up until it melts, and then talented pokemon can make them into different shapes! Some things also use metal lids, and they'll even imprint logos and other crazy things on them! I have nooo idea how they came up with that kinda thing. They probably dug up a bunch of old human artifacts and studied them!!
Keaton: Well. You've heard the phrase "history repeats itself", haven't you sir?
Guildmaster: Yeah!! ... What's that got to do with it?
// one thing that I always think is interesting about how pmd is interpreted is the level of technology folks seem to think the pokemon have accessible to them. somehow it's easy to imagine that they have an organized postal system (implying the existence of addresses, which implies the existence of property borders and surveying, and also implies a printing press or at least reliable access to writing materials- and not just for scholarly purposes, but to write newsletters and junk mail on a wide scale), an economy (implies the development from a trade and barter system, as well as the ability to smelt and manufacture a currency), and complex architecture involving steel I beams (something I'm pulling from gurdurr's shop in gates which i'm sure is just meant to be visual shorthand, but it's something developed in the mid-1800s which is around when light bulbs came into the scene)... but they somehow don't know what glass-blowing or threaded fasteners are despite being a technique developed almost 2,000 years before a lot of those other things lmao. not to mention even older methods of craft like clay which date all the way back to over 20,000 years ago. I think a lot of it has to do with how pmd itself isn't quite consistent with what technology exists, trying to go for a medieval but whimsical feel with a few comforts from modern day thrown in. but playing around with those expectations with characters like the guildmaster and julius is fun B) I'm of the thought that if a society has developed language, culture, and economy, it's not really far-fetched to think they'd have basic comforts
#on borrowed time comic#ask-obt#guildmaster#wigglytuff#ooc#I also base a lot of OBT's world on how I lived every summer during my childhood- which was in handmade structures in the woods#it was to set up for an art-driven event with a whimsical aesthetic. i'd share pictures but i already doxx myself enough on the internet lo#OBT's technology and hobbies are based off of what we had accessible to us during those months#keaton#chatot

I have purchased.. a PAN!!! I did a whole lotta research, spoke to my sister a lot, did more research, price compared, and finally decided on a pan: the All-Clad 10" fry pan with lid. Ideally, I wanted a glass top lid, but I could not find everything I wanted at a price I was interested in paying. Anyway, pan!
Why did I go for this pan? All-Clad makes some of the best stainless steel pans on the market. If I wanted the best, I'd actually not be getting stainless steel, but the Hestan Nanobond. However, their fry pan is nearly $500 (CAD) and doesn't come with a lid. Given the amount of cooking I do, even if i were to never replace that pan in my life, I just don't feel I need a pan that expensive right now. All-Clad's pans are also on the pricier side compared to some other pans, but at $150 (CAD) for this particular pan, I'm not fussed about the price. I know I'll be keeping it for a long while.
Now, why not go with non-stick pans? Well, to be honest, I did want one. I really love the look of the GreenPan pans, they did a collab with Stanley Tucci, which I don't care about celebrity anything, but this line has such a beautiful teal I was so, so tempted to get it. However, the more research I did, the less I wanted to spend the money. (The teal covered fry pan is $260 (CAD) and only comes in one size, and it's a bit too big for my burners) While GreenPan does have a good mission about sustainability from what I read from them, the fact of the matter is regardless of this, non-stick pans have a much shorter lifespan than pans without a non-stick coating. From what I read, the longevity can be from a few months to up to five years, and i definitely was using my old non-stick far longer than that and is alarming to think about, but also, that isn't that long. And that's for traditional non-sticks. Apparently ceramic non-stick, what GreenPan's pans are, last for an even shorter amount of time. The coating erodes, get scratched, is sensitive to too much heat, and while you can recycle pans, apparently because the coating is difficult to remove to recycle many non-stick pans still end up in the landfill. Additionally, with ceramic non-stick specifically, it's only been around since 2007 and while GreenPan and other manufacturers aren't using PFAs or PFOAs (one of them is outlawed in the US now, but I forget which, whatever Teflon is), the chemicals they do use to make the non-stick coating has not been tested extensively to be assured about the safety of the coating, and there are concerns over some of the chemicals in particular. I told a friend earlier I feel like I know so much about pans now, I would like to know less about them. But, I am happy with my choice. I think All-Clad makes good stainless steel pans, and based on the research I did, they make safe pans for my health. Anyway, now I have to wait for it to arrive. I could only find this one pan at Williams Sonoma, and they tell me it'll arrive in July. Oh well, it's the one I want after many hours of research that my eyes were incredibly annoyed with me this week. Maybe once it arrives I'll talk about how it feels to cook with!

I hate the fact that water bottle manufactures are seemingly incapable of understanding that making something out of glass does not magically render the laws of physics no longer applicable
I have a plastic water bottle which I have had for years
It's started leaking, and I decided to see if I could get one like it but made of glass, which would be both more eco friendly and less likely to flavour the water
Unfortunately, I have found approximately zero glass water bottles with all of a) a locking, flip lid, b) an absent or removable straw, and c) an air hole to allow the water to be consumed without being sabotaged by vacuum
Apparently being glass, they don't seem to need this! I am furious
Why have manufacturers decided it's fine to produce a gazillion near-identical glass bottles with tiny smooth lids, in my opinion the least practical of all water bottle designs, but not one of them has gone 'you know our widely sold plastic water bottles with the flip lids? Let's make some out of glass and sell them as the eco friendly option!'
It's madness, and I am furious

So ... years ago I worked in a big department store that decided it needed to have a big clear out of stock that had been discontinued by the manufacturer and all things sitting in the store room that had broken parts. I got 8 glasses for 50 cents because one in the pack had been broken. I got a soup tureen for a dollar. It's only problem? The lid had been broken. It might turn out that the best thing I got that day was this.
A Corning 4l casserole in the Spice of Life pattern that I got for a few bucks because the pattern had been discontinued. It was the last one left in stock. It's big, it still has its original lid and I've only used it a few times over the years. While looking up something else yesterday I learned this tempting bit of info about my casserole dish.
👀👀👀👀👀
Turns out it could be worth a lot of money! Now....do I try to sell it or do I keep it because I'm finally living close enough to family again that I might actually need a casserole that size again. It's insane!!!! All because the 70's look is in style again.

Barr's ended their deposit scheme a couple of years ago - Where you could take the bottle back to the corner shop (Or, going further back, give it back to the juice float that came around once a week to drop off the [limeade/irn bru/cream soda/dandelion/your favourite bottle of pop here]) and you'd be given a 5p deposit back, and the bottles would be washed, refilled and relabelled, and sent back out on their rounds.
The bottles were extra thick- Not like a champagne bottle, but thick enough to withstand a few chips and being rattled against each other in the crates.
But anyway, they stopped doing the deposits because it wasn't economical, people largely didn't want to take their bottles back to the shop. And they started to sell a premium classic-recipe Irn Bru. Which they sell in the old deposit bottles! These massive heavy glass bottles that are good for a few dozen trips back to the plant, and basically infinite home use, now being used as disposable containers!
So, I use them to bottle mead and ginger beer into, once they're either already fermented dry or I've heat killed them.
But that's what waste studies is about, to some extent- what makes something disposable vs reusable, in a world where their durability isn't the only factor in what makes them "rubbish". A glass Nutella jar and a plain drinking glass are both equally good at being drank-out-of, both equally sturdy, and the cost to the manufacturer of making both might be about equal... But serving drinks out of Nutella jars, even the ones without a screw thread, is seen as "thrifty/cheap" and "odd" (whether approvingly or not) What makes one plastic cup a permanent, reusable item - Potentially even something you're sentimentally attached to - and another one appropriate for using singly and then discarding? How about wooden packing crates, the kind which were disposable when they were in common use 50 years ago, but that now are in great demand as vintage furniture? (On a smaller scale, how many people have a Royal Dansk tin to keep their sewing supplies in, or their bridge decks stashed in a Redbreast baccy tin?)
It's interesting and strange and covers all sorts of cultural taboos and the construction of material cultures (Black Americans reusing the Crown Royal purple bags, First Nations people using the lids of tobacco tins to make jingle dress cones, Romany painters decorating baccy tins and cigar boxes - whose cultures have enough cachet to be seen as the "right" way to determine what is disposable?) as well as history (1st century Roman perfumiers making disposable but still decorative single-use vials to advertise their wares, vignerons and oil sellers of the same vintage selling in single-use amphorae which would be shipped across the Mediterranean and then usually broken to reuse) and sociopolitical conflicts (is clothing disposable? What happens to stuff that you "throw out"? Who owns the rubbish and what rights do you have once you declare something to be waste?)
It's fascinating and if I could go back to school it would be to read about that.
You know how companies used to make flour sacks with pretty flower patterns on them because mothers would make dresses out of them for their daughters? We should bring that back. Paper bags designed to be reused as wrapping paper. Jars of jam designed to look nice filled with pencils or homemade sauces. Fabric that's high quality enough to use as a patch.
Give things a second life!!

The reason Apple had to say this was actually way more infuriating.
Basically, they're obsession with making devices way thinner than they need to be led them to create a over 7 years worth of MacBooks where if you stick ANYTHING (even screen protectors or keyboard covers) between the lid and bottom case, it has the potential to severely scratch and even break your screen and/or trackpad. It can even permanently damage a devices hinges, LCD panel, or top case. The tolerances on late 2016 through 2020 MacBooks are so tight that the device's own keyboards can (and often do) damage their screens. I know. I have a mid-2017 MacBook Pro 13" and the corners of the keys have left little wear marks on the glass.
HOWEVER, due to a scandal where someone build a firmware that allowed a MacBook's camera to be activated without the LED being on, all MacBooks built after 2009 have the LED and Camera built into the same circuit. This means, even if you wipe macOS off the machine entirely, in order for the camera to be activated there HAS to be power going through the green LED. So there quite literally is no way to activate a MacBook's camera without you being very obviously aware.
It's never the camera you should be worried about, anyway. It's the microphones. Due to a lot of machines coming with "Hey Siri" and similar voice assistant summon commands, most modern devices (including phones) have live mics 24/7. They constantly capture audio, looking for even a chance of hearing the summon phrase. Audio that is quite often sent back to the device manufacturer and/or developer in order to "train" and "improve" their products... allegedly.
