We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Question: If you had to design a bridge, and you did, and it was built, and then you noticed it sways in the wind, would you tear it down?
And if you answer yes: This is normal. Bridges are designed with a certain level of flex in mind, and they have redundancies to allow for this. Too much is a problem of course, but a certain amount is normal and budgeted for.
And it's similar here: The helium leaks were not planned to be there, but there's a certain redundancy in the system which means that a certain level of helium leakage is not an issue.
