As a boost user this is weird... So many people were asking in the subreddit and he never answered. I'm glad it's happening

This has been him for the past 3 or 4 weeks

Pirates don't protest when the ship is sinking. They commandeer another ship and use that one.

Apparently it covers their ass since they would only be held liable if they misrepresented the dangers. Since they mention death 3 times on the first page, I don't think they did.

I don't know many details on the loss there so I do not know if they were able to be saved or if they would have been assumed dead before the coast guard could have responded. Maybe the coast guard there just doesn't care?

Can't really compare either of these situation because they differ too much. Ask the Greek coast guard why they didn't make an effort.

There was already an article that basically said they will be immune from any lawsuits. They operated in international waters outside the scope of any laws or regulations on how the submersible needed to be rated. I hope they can find grounds to sue them and kill the company, maybe they will be open to civil lawsuits?

Why would the US coast guard be near Greece?

The coast guard has never charged for search and rescue. This was not an ambulance ride.

Is there a way to pause the feed when browsing all/new?

It's adding new posts faster than I can even scroll, I see something I want to look at and POOF, it's gone to who knows where.

I'm REALLY hoping the dev for boost (for reddit) makes a Lemmy app.

Is there something like a Lemmy guide on how to use it? I'm using jerboa, and finding communities is not a user friendly experience so far. Everything is so separated.
