      Because you’re filthy rich and want to let all those pesky peasants know how much more valuable your rich life is, so much you can literally “survive underwater” while they suffer on the surface

      It has windows.

      Clarification: the bogus AI images they’ve got have windows in the viewing gallery. It’s all bullshit though - it features the images from SAFE that are allso bullshit but keep popping up in various articles, notably* the MRI room.

        Even if there are windows they might as well not be there because it will be pitch dark all the time. And any light you shine will reveal… nothing.

          Not so. You should really look at the info before commenting lol.

          “It’s got no windows!” - there are windows pretty clearly visible in the renders.

          “There’s no light down there!” - it tops out at 250m, light reaches about 800m.

            Ha, fair enough, although I’m not reading any article about an idea this silly. I still don’t want to go on any holiday where I can’t leave the hotel.

              That just means you’re commenting on something without knowing anything about it, and so far everything you’ve commented has been incorrect?

              It comes with two boats, jetskis, a helipad, and the ability to surface. You’re not trapped in a hotel with no windows. It’s not pitch black. You have ways to leave. It would have taken less time to learn this by reading the article than it would have taken to type this bollocks.

                Ah, I’m sorry, you caught me, I made a flippant comment about a submarine that doesn’t exist. Thank you for enlightening me so graciously.

                  Nah, you were trying to shit on something and point out flaws with a hypothetical product wihout even bothering to read about it. You got called out on talking shite - don’t take the hump.

                    This has already taken more time than it deserves from either of us. My criticisms were uninformed, sorry, I still think it’s a shit idea. I don’t want to stay in a hotel in which for significant portions of my stay I can’t leave. I realise it’s not really different from a cruise - I think cruises sound awful too, and this just adds on that some of the time you can’t even go outside.
