I have a friend who won’t put his kids in the back of his Tesla because of this.

People don’t want the Fediverse. They want Twitter before Elon. They don’t care that Meta owns Threads.

There are private/paywalled Discord servers and forums out there, too, so this could replace some of those. I think the Reddit format is better than a lot of alternatives, so I don’t actually hate this idea.

I’m not really into the idea of moving everything to a baby Google, even if they’re currently good about privacy. They just added an AI tool to email and a crypto wallet, which could be either awful or great signs depending on your perspective.

The US healthcare system is completely broken unless you’re rich.

Multiple things can be true at the same time, though: people don’t take care of themselves and live very unhealthy sedentary lifestyles with awful diets.

I was kind of hoping for Impulse Space, but they’re probably too unproven.

One of Starship’s engines on the lowest setting would tear the station apart. Regardless of whether they make this based on Starship instead of something more reasonably sized like a Dragon or Falcon 2nd stage, it’ll still need either a new engine design or a big cluster of Dracos. It’ll be something custom.

Regarding their Artemis work- the payments are milestone based, so they get money as they pass milestones. Engine relights and ship to ship prop transfer are some of the next ones.

Regarding their other customers- the Starship manifest includes another moon cruise, several satellite launches, and a lot of Starlinks.

Serious answer- SpaceX is building the deorbit vehicle then turning it over to NASA, who will have full control over it.

There’s no way Russia builds a new station. The timeline for them getting Nauka to orbit basically proves that it’s impossible. They’ve been trying to buddy up with China to visit theirs, though.

Realistically, there’s a SpaceX Dragon docked to the ISS, so that’s probably their emergency shelter and ride home.

I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed

Milwaukeeans were already not going to be happy to deal with these people. If the event gets extra putschy now… uff da.

We’ve been trained to keep our expectations so, so low

Better than nothing. Hopefully this prevents some deaths.

And it will hallucinate and give wrong answers

VW must be running them

So now they’ll threaten to move the teams to LA, right?

I voted 3rd party in 2016. I regret it all the time.

On the issue of genocide, the vote is between more or less. Voting 3rd party, Republican, or abstaining is a vote for more genocide.

The moral high ground and smugness is worthless compared to less genocide, abortion, education, trans lives, healthcare, etc.

Wirecutter and RTINGS both do a lot of testing and reviews, including for headphones.

The mass application boom is so annoying. Seeing a sankey diagram of someone who applied to hundreds of jobs always bothers me.
