The guy above is correct, altitude has no effect on the BT transmission.

I never said otherwise and we both know it.

I'm not gonna play the reddit game with you. I have no burden of proof. Find another strawman to play with.

The vessel had many successful dives before this happened, so logic would dictate that the wireless implementation was working.

The designer is dead.

The designer is dead so the wireless didn't work?

Does that count as a coherent argument to you? I wouldn't make fun of redditors if you can't make a better argument than that...

The people who trusted the guy are dead. You take his logic as gospel, good for you.

Now I got from other sources that the wifi was commanding the propeller. Meaning that yes, the wifi signal was supposed to travel through the water.

No either you have something of value to the discussion and you post it, or you don't post and we're done.

You've been thoroughly unpleasant to chat with, so I think we're done either way.

Take care.

edit: Judging by your reputation points it seems the community already warned me. Guess I'll check that first in the future.

This was your opener, "Mr Good Manners":

Do you have evidence that this was the case, or are you moving the goal posts to the "no shit sherlock" zone for an easy win?

You kept insisting that I made an assertion when I didn't.

About my reputation, if this is a metric for you then maybe I should downvote you, right? I didn't downvoted you so far but maybe I should?

Let's try this!

HOOOOOO, look! you went from 2 to -4! It goes fast, right? Right? What a metric! You are a negative reputation now. And I only downvoted you in this thread! Now people will have a surprise when they look at your reputation.

I took the liberty of downvoting you more. You are now at -45. It's a good experiment on how flawed the reputation system works. Maybe you will, like me, refrain from smashing this downvote button and focus more on the content you write. You would see that you strawmen from the very beginning.

Have a fantastic day!

We know for a fact that wifi signal was not supposed to travel through the water, because the sub successfully reached Titanic several times before it was destroyed.

If someone had designed the sub in the bizarre way that you suggested, then it would never have completed a single mission.
