Spain's new submarine 'too big for its dock'
The original problem with the submarine dates back to 2013, when it was discovered that it was about 100 tons heavier than it needed to be.
That caused a problem for its buoyancy - so it could submerge, but might not come back up again.
A former Spanish official told the Associated Press at the time that someone had put a decimal point in the wrong place, and "nobody paid attention to review the calculations".That mistake cost a reported €14m while engineers and consultants figured out that buoyancy could be improved by lengthening the boat.

@tim that's brilliant. I watched part of her Netflix stand-up and it is perfectly captured by that mashup. She's passed off as some awesome comedian and I've never heard of her. None of her show is remotely funny unless you're overweight, undecided about your sexuality and colour your hair purple/ blue.

Zhe is crap , het comedy is more suited to a Ted talk I will go out of my way to avoid watching .
Apparently being a sanctimonious unfunny bore is a thing in comedy these days .https://quartzy.qz.com/1333263/nanette-and-why-a-new-wave-of-comedians-dont-want-to-be-funny/

@jegga aha, but if you don’t find it funny it’s just because of your privilege.
Honestly if you want to go and have a good belly laugh why would you go to see someone who is going to give you all a worthy lecture , especially in a setting where nobody can pick apart their logic?
On the other hand the genius of it is that zhe can trot out all the usual SJW bullshit and never even have to worry about being called out on zher nonsense because after all it’s only comedy.
And by the way, the only way zhe is getting any is if someone is too lazy to fap.

@jc this is about ted talks but sums up zher quite nicely

@jegga that's bang on. They're so tiresome in how they present the mundane and super obvious as startling insights. I had a couple of people get upset at me that my local TED was going to have a presenter crap in about the benefits of portrait photography hanging prominently in the house. Strangely the person providing this astonishing insight was, you guessed it, a portrait photographer.
