I guess the screen door wasn’t closed all the way.
Should have used more flex seal!
Wait... During its construction?
I'm pretty sure I've seen subs under construction before, and they didn't sunk because they weren't in water.
How... We're they building this thing?
Depends on the phase of construction. The pressure hull will be fully complete before being floated for the first time, with most (if not all) systems installed. But there still may be operational testing, training, etc. going on that is part of the construction process. Those types of things can take place waterborne (and in some cases are required to), which frees up space for construction of the next hull to begin.

Look dude English isn't a language, it's a mistake
It was meant to go underwater, right? Task failed successfully! China #1!
The opposite headline sounds just as bad: Submarine Fails To Sink
It would be a headscratcher if it flew away, would it
No need to worry. That problem eventually resolves itself as any sub that fails to submerge will eventually get sunk by enemy action and successfully sink in the end.
Imagine his audience is Winnie the Pooh:
I got banned in ml world news for a similar joke. I don't think they like that name.
Admiral Eeyore: “I knew something like this would happen…”
Sweden nods understandingly...

- Title must match the article headline

- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
