The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires' son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).
They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They've been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they'll make it?
unlikely. sub rescues are hardly successful. Their sub could have imploded, fast way to die. Had a power failure wich would takes days to die either from a lack of o2 or possibly the cold. Or it reached the surface and they got to look out at thet ocean until about noon their time tomorrow unable to open the hatch and slowly die from a lack of air.
The rescue would be miraculous. So, no. Sadly.
At this point, no. As I'm writing this comment, they barely have an hour of oxygen left. Yeah, they're dead for sure.
I don't think they're gonna make it. Infact don't think they have. The sub either imploded and killed all of them almost immediately or they ran out of oxygen but I doubt that one
Suffocating? I’ve heard it’s panic inducing and awful, not my first choice.
Hard to tell, it's all about luck at this point. Latest news are
"Canadian P-3 aircraft detected underwater noises in the search area," the U.S. Coast Guard tweeted early Wednesday morning. "As a result, ROV operations were relocated in an attempt to explore the origin of the noises. Those ROV searches have yielded negative results but continue."
The data from the P-3 has been shared with U.S. Navy experts for further analysis, the Coast Guard added.
I would say that all reasonable efforts should be made to rescue or recover anyone and everyone who has gone missing. We can figure out the rest once we exhaust all optons, or have them back on the boat.
Nope sub rescues are hard in shallow lakes. In the deep ocean they are boned. Unless they surfaced consider them dead
The submersible was suppose to automatically lose it's ballast and surface on it's own in an emergency situation, and that didn't happen. A reasonable explanation for this is that it imploded.
If they're deep down, it's unlikely. A good outcome would be something failed, but they could get up and are now lost on the surface, but from everything we've read about this it doesn't seem likely either.
I think the difference is in knowing where the capsized ship is and having a survivor count at all.
Meanwhile it’s a race against time for an unknown location of a submersible that sits in a relatively rare class for depth.
I’m not that hopeful but regardless of who they are, it’s a rather distressing thought putting yourself in anyone’s shoes from either incident.
This article goes into the enormous amount of resources being deployed to find this submersible.

It does not mention how to rescue them.. How would you even rescue them?
