34, in I just found out that the people onboard the Titan submarine are dead. Is OceanGate in trouble?

The CEO is definitely going down for this.

Narrrz,

I think that ship has sailed... wait, sank.

Sitting outside at dusk watching the lightening bugs come out, with a drink, and my dog at my feet.

    Communism isn't the problem there

    Any criticism to the CCP/Russia being censored is a problem.

    Agreed

    IANAL, but I imagine that being in the middle of the ocean would provide some immunity because the "crime" was jurisdictionless.

    Maritime law!!!

    TerabyteRex,

    when you sue someone, its in civil court. its not about legality. the company is in the US. the family memebers will take them down and they no longer ha e their ceo.

    jabakobob,

    Courts aren't limited to prosecuting crimes that happen in their jurisdiction. For example, German courts are prosecuting sex crimes committed by tourists in Thailand. So just because there is no court nearby doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.

    @Jezebelley Kbin, because it looked cleanest.

    Prefer lemmy with Jerboa. But commenting from kbin because their sort algorithm is better

    I really enjoy playing a video game on one monitor and watching/listening to something on the second monitor. Hollow Knight + Critical Role got me through some tough times, tbh.

    Its not necessarily relaxing depending on the game, but I always feel better and more relaxed afterwards.

    Argentina, because it stole my heart the first time I went there and has never returned it. Though it is an economic disaster, and lots of people are hurting :\

    I'm seconding Argentina! I just visited Buenos Aires in February, and I wished I could stay forever!

    Yep, exactly how I felt! I'm going back again in December

    I prefer Lemmy's UI but the Lemmy devs are just awful people in general...

    Kbin.

    I can’t even log into lemmy and i’ve been verified and even tried talking to the mod on discord.

    Kbin (at least for me) just seems to work.

    Lemmy has multiple instances, some one require you to write something to apply to register and then be approved.

    Tyson712, in Now that you've used Lemmy and /kbin which do you prefer and why?

    Considering we can get lemmy content here anyway and kbin has a better UI, it's a no brainier

    Sylveon-Z, in question for admins, mods and users: do you promise to be better than reddit?
    @Sylveon-Z@kbin.social avatar

    I will try to be more active on here once a functional Android app comes out. I will try to be more active on desktop but when I was on Reddit I usually used the Reddit is Fun app.

    Not only is the CEO dead, I think that people are going to be a lot more hesitant going on anything the company makes from now on. That's not even mentioning the possibility of them being sued.

    nevernevermore,

    That's not even mentioning the possibility of them being sued.

    Hadn't even thought of this tbh but yeah a bunch of wealthy people died, their families are going to milk the company for every penny

    RheingoldRiver,

    oh wait, the CEO is literally dead, like, he was on the submarine. I thought at first you meant, "The CEO is most definitely out of the company after this" but, you meant that literally.

    Pretty sure after this they are done, I'm not sure you would be able to find someone on this planet moronic enough to go with them again.

    I like the beach a lot, but I've never been able to feel truly relaxed in one as there's always more people around and with more people more often than not comes shouting, laughing, loud music, etc. I think I associate the beach with being active and joyful, than being in zen-mode.

    My idea of relaxation would be at my house, reading my books and magazines on my iPad or playing a solo TTRPG with an ice-cold carajillo or rompope cup in hand, with Portishead, Massive Attack or Nortec Collective playing in the background, during those late summer/early-mid fall months here in Mexico City in which you can hang in the garden, balcony or whatever, and the weather is just warm enough to make you feel cozy, while a breeze of fresh cold air hits you now and then, feeling the best of both worlds.
