Originally posted by aldra reports now that they've found a debris field, but don't know whether it's related to the missing sub
if it is it means the sub depressurised and got obliterated, which honestly would suck a lot less than being locked in a tiny fart locker with four other people in the dark as you slowly run out of heat and air

for one wireless is a terrible idea for mission-critical anything, especially in a can like that where cross-interference with other systems could be an issue
for another there doesn't seem to have been a back up
but really that image just brings back memories of when I was in primary school and went to other kids' houses to play videogames, they would always have one shitty banged up controller that didn't work properly and they'd always make you use it because it's their console -

It’s tense. That’s the overwhelming mood in 2022, thirty years after the “rave” revolution began. It’s also been over a year since I posted here on Ghost Deep. Disruption is no longer the mantra of Silicon Valley but the mixed outcome across the planet. Electronic music, house, techno, EDM, whatever one wants to call it, was the sonic precognition of the digital age, and for those who were there to hear it, and if you were lucky, dance to it — long before the giant music festivals and its pop music conquests — it’s safe to say things haven’t turned out as expected.
Why? It seems disappointingly clichéd to write, but we all know, and I would argue many of us knew, that history can’t simply be outdone or outrun. There was and sometimes still is the exciting sense that we are surfing the waves of change. Technology offers so many possibilities. It is thrilling. It is dizzying. When the electronic music revolution began, it was that excitement one could hear in synthesized chords and machine beats that said “Go!”
Which in a way is kind of funny because maybe Doug Liman had it right more than Danny Boyle did, at least it seems from this Californian’s vantage. I know, many of us probably remember Boyle’s Trainspotting more than Liman’s Go, and yet the latter has grown as a 1990s cult classic in its own right. Following his 1996 hit Swingers, Liman’s 1999 Los Angeles rave comedy was written off by some critics as a Quentin Tarantino copycat. But that misses the mark. Go didn’t kill its way into minds and hearts. It floated like a Bruce Lee soliloquy.
“It’s like, ‘Hey man! How’s the ground down there?’" So says a raver to Go’s lead characters Ronna and Claire in a van outside a warehouse party, believing he’s high on what is fake ecstasy. Looking back now, it’s the film’s comment on the universal search for the spiritual. The truth is, Trainspotting maybe elevated heroin, and more than it celebrated ecstasy, the latter proposed as a salve to kicking the smack habit; Pulp Fiction on the other hand was homicidal mania riding the heroin high of rock ‘n’ roll, a film that dared audiences to laugh at a poor kid’s head exploding at the end of John Travolta’s pistol point-blank. One semi-glorified drug use. The other clearly glorified violence. In contrast, Go, which was written by John August, was a more humane document, and ultimately the deeper, kinder laugh.
It was somewhere between Fiction and Trainspotting, yet more immersed in the low cost seedy ways of city nightlife and youth’s fascination with living the ultra life. Its soundtrack lacked Trainspotting’s brilliant edge, but it also imbibed the electronica rhythms and breakbeat flows throughout its winding, fracturing narrative that were its soundtrack to the underground. Its more astonishing magic trick however was how it captured today more than yesterday. Mixed up, sexed up, stoned, and lost, its diverse group of heroines and heroes indexed heavily toward equality and diversity; faced with criminality, faced with consequences, the impulse at the end of the century, a decade before Barack Obama’s presidency, was “Go! Go! Go!”
So we did, and we have. We did go. We are going. But where? The things we took for granted are now up for debate: democracy, decency, dignity. Truth be told, I would have added “reality” to that list, but that would be disingenuous. There I personally have revised my own interpretation of the past and what resides in memory. No. Factually speaking, most ravers I knew, including myself, were eager to debate fundamental tenants of reality. Rave, above all else, was hallucinatory.
We were a ragtag band of renegade philosophers. Nihilists. I don’t write that word lightly. Often associated with the German philologist, philosopher and tortured soul, Friedrich Nietzsche, nihilism is one of those words that most people pick at gingerly as if it were radioactive. The Buddha basically described it as a spiritual orientation in which we throw our hands up in disinterest and despair at the meaninglessness of life. I am not saying that “ravers” and the techno-enchanted are nihilists, but that there is a powerful strain of nihilism in the futurist mentality, because much of it stems relentlessly from a deep dissatisfaction with the past and the present.
And yet that is only part of the picture, because many ravers were also hippies. Zippies. That was what some U.K. observers dubbed the “new age travelers” that formed part of the ranks of the “Acid House” or “Ecstasy” generation that “saw the light” or “heard the future” in the late 1980s and early 1990s in grassy fields and dark warehouses, embracing the social liberation at the heart of rave’s artistic fire. The intense fascination with the “spiritual” among many early ravers pulled in the Goa trance of India and the rhythmic mysticism of Africa. Just like the hippies of the psychedelic 1960s, the ravers of the 1990s were drawn to fantasy, ecology, pharmacology and science.
These two ends of a spiritual spectrum are part of a tension that has emerged in the mass cultural waves of the 2010s and 2020s. Hedonism is perhaps where the two meet, from the disaffected to the earnest, converging in a cybernetic synthesis of circuits, cells and code, forming an interconnected system of electricity. As we migrated more and more from analog means to digital metamorphoses, caught between the tactile thrills of turntables and speaker cables, and the expansive “metaverse” that computer screens and sequencing software predicted, we overlooked the persistence of human folly.
