A rich person died (celebratory)

As we say on the show over and over again the atomic unit of propaganda is not lies, it's emphasis.

The Titan Submersible was at least a classical feel-good tale of hubris.

This thing is just annoying, who cares.

Imagine you're in a billion dollar machine to go down to the ocean and you buy a third party controller Logitech doesn't even make anymore. I'd barely wanna hand that shit to 2nd player, why cheap out on something so tiny on such an expensive project? I could barely get that controller to work when I had one as a kid, they're pieces of shit. Not like it really matters, but it just shows the level of corner cutting that happened with that submersible. Literally couldn't splurge an extra $10 to get a controller for the ship that doesn't suck total ass.

At last, the disruptive innovators are giving back to the planet what they had taken so much away from.
