The second is watchable but is worse as an adaption.

The events in the first book are concluded in it. It's not a trilogy adaption of Dune the book. Many of the characters have their actions and motivations swapped onto other characters. The ending changes some significant points. Feels like the third movie might end up being a freestyle attempt to start a "Dune Universe" IP rather than caring about the source material.

It's kind of a mess but still fun in some bits. Not sure if I'll bother to watch the third when it comes out.

That's 2nd Mate Danielle Randolph who quoted Scooby. She and others tried to get the Captain to further change course around the weather. He did not. Everyone died.

He just didn't take the storm seriously enough and once things became dire it was clear that neither the ship nor the crew were properly set up to make it through. Bad maintence and poor training by the ship owner TOTE were the secondary causes.

Once they abandoned ship they had little chance of survival due to outdated lifeboats and equipment.

As bad as the Captain screwed up, in the end he seemed a good person. After giving the order to abandon ship, one of the crew understandably panicked and froze up. Captain Davidson did not leave him. He spent his final minutes trying to help that last man as the ship sank under them.

The last we heard of 2nd Mate Randolph she had gone in search of life vests for herself, the Captain, and the panicked crewmen. She was there to the end as well.

First part of your comment isn't true. I can't find any source to back that up. The company did screw up in plenty of other ways. Then they tried to weasle out of the consequences as your link illustrates,. So still villians.

Can't wait for the next for next episode of Knowledge Fight to cover this!

There's an official conspracy theory?

I'm more interested as to why you have a cottered crank from a bicycle on your counter. It looks like it has been cusomized into a tool with a little blacksmith work. What's it do?

If you find Alex and Info Wars interesting check out the podcast "Knowledge Fight". They take deep entertaining dives into the disturbing world of Mr. Jones...

Old racist trope: The Jews run the world through the banking system and use black people as muscle to mess with poor downtrodden whitey.

Old fashioned but the same thinking exists today.

"The globalists are using the open border to implement the new world order by sneaking an army of illegals in to the US to destroy our country from within."

Old racist dogs learn no new tricks.

Low end bikes like that just don't have much value used. They are generally considered disposable. Still if it is in good ridable shape you might get $50. Some times you cant give them away... Used helmets are iffy to the buyer. You never can be certain they are in good safe condition, even if they look nice. A nice camelback might be worth more than the bike and helmet!

Nice little rabbit hole to crawl down!

That probably would! Of course a whole set of cheap cone wrenches cost less. And in some cases you need to use two cone wrenches at the same time to get an adjustment right. For you that you would need two of these $40 wrenches. Still nice to know that exists. Perfect for the occasional oddball sized cone you run across if you mess with enough wheels.

I've never seen an adjustable wrench that was thin enough to do many of those jobs. Maybe you could grind a standard one thin enough. A little tricky.

Thanks! You do have to be careful not to overload those. I have a heavy duty hitch mount on my truck rated for 500lbs. Plenty for this stripped down race bike.
