Iâm sure it will be a submarine* *maximum operational depth 2 meters from surface to cabin, and must have itâs conning tower, bridge, and snorkel completely exposed at all time

Or, seeing as itâs billionaire bullshit, it will be an ecological disaster. What do you want to offer for the odds that it will have shit navigation, and throws out pings every 3 seconds if submerged? Goodbye local wildlife, recreational diving, and all other activities taking place underwater.
sxan@midwest.social â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Good point. If any part of a vessel never fully submerges, can it be termed a submarine?
empireOfLove2@lemmy.dbzer0.com â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Not really, but it will be good enough to get some affluenza fuck to drop $2bil on it
according to their official page they do have it specced out for 4 weeks of fully submerged operation with a max depth of 250 meters. However, literally none of this is real as itâs just a concept model without real engineering or a prototype built, so the chances of it meeting such specs are whatever the fuck you feel like they are.
tpihkal@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Perfect. Now I can ignore the article.
ramble81@lemm.ee â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Will this one also be steered with a gaming controller?
ElCanut@jlai.lu â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
No this one is PC based
Agent641@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Pretty hard to download these mandatory windows updates when youre uner 500m of water.
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Me, laughing at the luxury submarine because its integrated with PCs
Me, nervous about the luxury submarine because I just found out those PCs are running Linux.
VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zone â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Meh, Iâve seen a few of these pop up and get articles written about them over the years. They usually disappear soon after. Probably just trying to scam money from Investors.
Mr_Blott@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
They usually disappear soon after
Yes, they go under the water
Lev_Astov@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
US Subs has offered these for decades and theyâre a legit commercial submarine firm. Iâm not sure anyone actually wants to buy them.
sus@programming.dev â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
I read on a pop sci magazine years ago that âthis is not the first time we have offered a design, but nobody was willing to buy one so it didnât get builtâ
roguetrick@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Unless itâs a nuke sub that lets your rich ass just disappear under the water I donât see the point. Cruising around under the surface with a snorkel up on diesel engines just seems like a straight downgrade. Why even go out of your bunker.
sus@programming.dev â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
[deleted]Acters@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
It may be closer to âhope someone is willing to waste $20 billion on oneâ and then nobody does so it doesnât get built.
But if you look at all the crap saudi arabia is doing, the chance that they succeed in selling it may not be zero
Your right, there are plenty of insecure people from all levels of wealth.

The title of this article really confused me because Iâve never hard of this company before.
I thought olâ mate migaloo (the albino Humpback whale) was swimming around fucking up super superyachts.
rtxn@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Iâve never served on a sub, but Iâve seen videos, and âluxuryâ is probably the last thing that comes to mind in relation to submarines.
PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
well yeah, military subs arent built for comfort. neither are military surface vessels.
you can make anything luxurious if you pump enough money into it.
Slovene@feddit.nl â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
And if you donât have to pump it full of seamen.
Dnn@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Iâd expected much more glass on this one too. If youâre underwater for fun you want to see shit!

clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
There was a sequel of sorts, Subnautica: Below Zero. It feels pretty different, but itâs fun in its own right.
Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
I wonder if depth charges work the same on luxury subs as they do on military ones?
Eat the rich!
Rinox@feddit.it â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
No, I donât think theyâd work the same. If military subs are rated and tested similarly to big ships like aircraft carriers, they are extremely resilient again underwater explosions
I doubt that this thing, if it existed, would be as durable.
basxto@discuss.tchncs.de â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
We should give it a shot.

You have an ally in orcas. They donât even need to be commanded!
SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Ah, yes, to get to their bunker undetected when the revolt begins.
grue@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Unironically, yes, that probably is what itâs for. I wouldnât be surprised if Larry Ellison and Mark Zuckerberg are excavating under sea cliffs in LÄnaĘťi as we speak.
Madison420@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
New Zealand, thereâs a billionaire commune there thatâs been robbery criticized for bunker building and pay to stay passports.

Its a good thing that submarines donât require any kind of routine docking and maintenance.

Length overall: 165.8 m Beam: 23.0 m Draft: 8.6 m Range: approx. 15.000 km Submerged duration: approx. 4 weeks Depth: approx. 250 m
It even has a pool inside it!
BluesF@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Why would you want to spend 4 weeks trapped in a hotel with no windows?
ICastFist@programming.dev â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Because youâre filthy rich and want to let all those pesky peasants know how much more valuable your rich life is, so much you can literally âsurvive underwaterâ while they suffer on the surface
stom@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
It has windows.
Clarification: the bogus AI images theyâve got have windows in the viewing gallery. Itâs all bullshit though - it features the images from SAFE that are allso bullshit but keep poping up in various articles, notbaly the MRI room.
dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Letâs tear this apart.
Length overall: 165.8 m Beam: 23.0 m Draft: 8.6 m
Not a nautical engineer, but those seem to be comparable to known military craft. So thatâs probably a decent envelope for a sub carrying ordinance and full crew. So, lots of free space for a pleasure craft.
Range: approx. 15.000 km
To pump these numbers, thatâs likely surface cruising at some optimal speed. We can safely say this isnât a nuclear sub, since that would be something to boast: your ârangeâ is really âhow much food do you have?â since that runs out first.
Submerged duration: approx. 4 weeks
This oneâs tricky. There are ways to generate O2 without electricity. But the rest of your environmental controls like heat, light, plumbing, cooking, etc. draw power. So we can assume a pretty beefy battery bank on this boat, but not excessively so, in order to stretch into that 4 week range. But thatâs nothing revolutionary for subs - Electric subs go back to 1888, with diesel/electric hybrids coming along after that.
Depth: approx. 250 m
Totally plausible and shallower than military craft. But maybe not with the viewing windows in the illustration.
It even has a pool inside it!
A moon pool or a regular one? Either way, thatâs extravagant. But it looks like a moon pool wouldnât work below 50m or so.
_dev_null@lemmy.zxcvn.xyz â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago

Pffft, bush league. The Titan has been submerged for checks watch 272 days with no end in sight.
stom@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
A moon pool or a regular one?
Just a regular one, but I imagine theyâll add one if you ask for it.
RidderSport@feddit.de â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
Considering that the record for longest continous submersion of a diesel-electric sub is something like 2 weeks, i highly doubt that 4 weeks in a civilian vessel is achievable
RagingRobot@lemmy.world â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago

Any idea how ? Asking for a friend ofc.
tryptaminev@feddit.de â¨8⊠â¨months⊠ago
You fill a barrel full of Ammonium-Nitrate fertilizer and put a 30-120 seconds delay fuze depending on expected depth. You start the fuze and drop it into the water. Voila Depth-Charge.

Pleasepleaseplease put bazillions of dollar-equivalents into building this thing and then get it stuck in ice that later cuts into the hull and sinks it đ I know the unfathomably wealthy will never do anything to make this world actually decent but they can at least let us have a decent laugh once in a while!
(Iâm assuming the pollution left before itâs towed out of the environment will be less than the pollution from actually running the thing) (Also âtowed out of the environmentâ is a funny reference. May need to look up âfront fell off.â I am asleep.)

Their business strategy will be releasing another rendered picture every six months to bring in new investors and inevitably after few years they will ethier go bankrupt or become another yacht company that will call itself âyacht market disruptorâ or âthe most innovative yacht companyâ.

or they just the psyop to cover up a new class 9f military submarine being build, u cant hide a drydock from satelites but u can lie about what u building there
