Their lives are not in urgent danger. They've been located, and none of them have serious injuries or problematic medical conditions. They can't pump all the water out of the caves to let them walk out, but they can pump out enough water to keep them safe where they are. They can bring food in.
One alternative they're considering is to just leave them there for a few months; obviously an unpleasant choice, but perhaps not the biggest challenge they'll face in their lives. It is their comfort, and the comfort of their parents, that they're working to save now.
Circumstances can change quickly, especially in monsoon season. Oxygen levels are down to 15% so there's a real risk of hypoxia and one of the Navy divers who was delivering air tanks has died
"Auto manufacturers DO have to work on making their vehicles safer for those people. For example, there is a required hood crumple specification to improve pedestrian safety if you hit them.
All passenger vehicles sold in the USA will have to have automatic emergency braking by 2022 [nbcnews.com], and the EU will probably follow suit. And they took non-folding hood ornaments off of cars to protect pedestrians, as well"
Nice to hear something's finally being done for decades-old problems
At one time, a (monetized?) YouTube channel had to be linked with a Google Plus account. I wonder if the problem isn't with something having gone wrong on the Google side & not with YouTube. If so, the affected could be restored by unlinking the 2 accounts.

"On November 30, 2000, a female McDonald's manager in Leitchfield, Kentucky, undressed herself in the presence of a customer. The caller had convinced her that the customer was a "suspected sex offender" and that the manager, serving as bait, would enable undercover police officers to arrest him"
"On January 26, 2003, an Applebee's assistant manager subjected a waitress to a 90-minute strip search after receiving a collect call from someone who purported to be a regional manager for Applebee's"
"In February 2003, a call was made to a McDonald's in Hinesville, Georgia. The female manager (who believed she was speaking to a police officer who was with the director of operations for the restaurant's upper management) took a female employee into the women's bathroom and strip-searched her. She also brought in a male employee, who conducted a body cavity search of the woman to "uncover hidden drugs."
The Mount Washington strip search scam, April 2004, is left as an exercise to the reader.
Ok so let's say I'm a white guard. The black guy is behaving himself and the white guy isn't. You think I'm not going to go tune on the white guy just because he's white? Or that I'm going to hurt the black guy just because he's black? FFS that is some messed up logic. No doubt some people would think that way, but that in no way is universal. Anyone with a shred of decency would only punish where it's deserved.
It's not his "opinion"; it's a documented fact that Zimbardo and others told both the guards and the prisoners what to do.
But sure, let's just keep citing an unethical and discredited "experiment" because redoing it would be unethical. What could possibly be wrong with that.
"Boring machines are way better than they were a decade ago. It is time to start using them to build stuff." Are they really? How so? Let's hope they pay attention to safety. One collapsed tunnel and they'll have dug a grave.
I saw a similar title earlier today and gave 1 fuck, "what a dumb name". Fuck, why are OS names so shitty?
What difference does that make? I think Windows is a lame name and Solaris is cool but that didn't stop the former from becoming more successful than the latter. I also think most rappers have exceedingly stupid names but many of them are multi-millionaires and I'm not.
Hey!! At least the Republicans have (moon) rock-solid plans for getting back to space. Newt Gingrich promised a moonbase full of citizens by his 2nd term if elected president
We can argue until we're blue in the face about the PC "dying", but with lower volumes, who in their right mind would be flooding the market with cheap PC components? What else do you expect, honestly.
I was more than willing to pay for a reasonable increase but not 3-5x for 2x the capacity. Despite the drop in sales of PC / laptops and the rise of tablets, SSDs and HDDs didn't have the same ridiculous gouging. Even HDDs got quite a bit cheaper per GB after the significant jump in price from the 2011 Thailand flooding https://www.backblaze.com/blog...
What the fuck does that have to do with antitrust? You're comparing DDR3 to DDR4 prices and not accounting for the manufacturing differences. Seriously, fuck right off.
What the fuck, dude? I bought 16GB (4X4GB) Patriot memory for $70 around Xmas 2011 and planned to upgrade to 32GB, the max the mainboard would support once 8GB sticks were available and affordable. At no point since have I been able to find brand name 32GB DDR3 for less than 3x what I paid for 16GB.
2 years after I bought 1 GB DDR2 sticks, there were several brands offering 4GB sticks for significantly less than what I'd paid for 1 GB.
"they also do not agree with persecution or scapegoating of people who disagree with them, or the burning of books and censoring of facts deemed heretical (hate facts" Which right wing conservatives are these? You'll find plenty of counterexamples including many in elected office. And tell us who are the ones looking to promote creationism and remove evolution from science textbooks. Or telling government scientists they can't discuss climate change http://www.slate.com/articles/...
Oh, come on, that's not exclusive to "liberals". The rightwingnut snowflakes are all a-Twitter about Samantha Bee referring to Ivanka Trump as a feckless cunt but were perfectly at ease with Ted Nugent calling Hillary Clinton a toxic cunt back in the day.
"Capitalism is a woman who wants to trade sex for money and uses it to empower herself. No government is needed. Everything done to curtail capitalism is based on some "moral" outrage of some sort or another"
That capitalist hooker is only empowering herself until other women start doing the same and then she's only to happy to pay government thugs to secure her corner & declare the stuff she doesn't want to do as "morally outrageous" and as she gets older, she tries to control or destroy younger & more attractive women from taking away her customers.
"cause more wear and tear on the highways" Buses and commercial trucks do thousands of times more damage than all the passenger vehicles and any extra "wear & tear" by EVs is tiny given the proliferation of SUVs and pickup trucks.
"they are not affordable for our lower income" so don't buy what you can't afford
"want people like ME to subsides this shit" I'm quite certain that plenty of stuff you care about but many others don't have been subsidized forever.

"If you only look at the quarter average, they won't be making anywhere near 5000 a week, especially given they've had several shutdowns to retool"
They produced 28,578 Model 3s in Q2 vs 9766 in Q1 2018 so the avg weekly production went from 751 to 2198, an improvement of 342%

Easy to promise; hard to achieve.
It's always takes longer and cost more than Elon thinks as he's proven time & again

What's neither myth nor bunk are the multiple strip search phone call scams

Not always. I've seen more than a few cases where the vendors have talked senior mgmt into an even more expensive solution and longer term contract.

A lot of it has vast stores of methane beneath which means huge swaths will collapse long before they "become productive"
