minus-squareZapBeebz@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up13·3年前Frankly the biggest safety issue is that they have no transponder. So even if something goes wrong and they have to surface, rescuers are stuck looking for a drifting needle in a 41 million square mile haystack.
minus-squareCIWS-30@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up6·3年前Honestly, I’m shocked by this. I would have thought that they’d at least be not-stupid enough to have something like that.
minus-squaremobyduck648@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3年前Yeah you’d think they’d at least have an EPIRB or something along those lines?
minus-squarewjrii@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3年前Fair point, especially with all the other shortcuts taken.
