A movie is something you watch, a game is something you play. It's not there to tell you a grand story. It's there to wrap some good gameplay in some storytelling packaging. A game is closer to a novel than it is to a hollywood mo

Except the entire idea that games should be promoted like hollywood movies is _exactly_ what precipitated this whole downfall. Games are not movies nor should they be like movies. Personally I hope there are tons of layoffs. The entire indu

Griffin did not fund SpaceX. He does not have any money. And yes Griffin, among several other people, accompanied Musk to Russia as advisors for his private plan to buy rockets to send a mini-greenhouse to Mars. The failure to make a deal i

That's not true. Starlink was developed for its stated purpose. It's a conspiracy pushed by Russian plants that it's for missile defense. A lot of information on that wiki page is made up. Like the constant talk of griffin.

Any visualization representing real time and the present moment would be inaccurate. Tracking data can sometimes be several days old.

They're not really crapping all over. Orbits at different altitudes rotate around the planet from precession so any satellites spread out randomly over time.

I think calling them dangerous is even a bit misleading as they're well tracked. Some of them even autonomously precisely position themselves rather than be on ballistic trajectory.

Elon current status is a legal immigrant. As are many other people who are not white. Remigration has nothing to do with your skin color.

The title is rather misleading. They haven't given up on promise of autonomy...

Lead pipes are actually fine. They don't leach lead into the water unless you send something corrosive through them like what happened in Flint.

Not all sats in general have thrusters. There's many types of satellites, especially smaller ones, that use magnetorquers, and somtimes reaction wheels as well, to maintain orientation but have no propulsion. There's also satellit

There's several blackout holes in Europe as well. Two in Germany, one in Spain and one in Sweden.

It's possible they haven't requested it yet. I've only heard SKA complaining loudly in the media while American radio telescopes have very obvious blackouts visible on SpaceX's map because they've requested them.

That's about AST Spacemobile, not SpaceX.

"We" don't have to launch anything at all. SpaceX needs to launch enough satellites to satisfy customer demand for their constellation. In general the trend actually is that SpaceX is launching fewer but larger satellites (in

I'm not sure why they're complaining when the SKA isn't even active yet. Once it's active Starlink will do just like they have for other radio telescopes, avoid transmitting while they're in the boresight and in gen

It didn't happen in LA though. They were put around federal buildings to protect them, not in the streets. The ones in the streets were the LA police.

Yes. This is also why people are talking about doing space solar power beaming. The cost of regulation and access has gotten so high that it's actually getting close to becoming cheaper to launch those solar panels into space instead o

I wish. Starlink has gotten almost zero money from the government (relative to their revenue). If Starlink got even a fraction of the money that fixed broadband companies got they could absolute explode he size of the service.

What makes satellite have an inherent limited capacity? Like there's no real physics limits on how big you can make a satellite. More reception power = more signal in the same frequency range.

The biggest issue there is that regardless of how your old your html elements, the old browsers only supported SSL 2/3, at best, and likely nothing at all, meaning you can't connect to basically any website.

No it's the same incident they previously talked about. There was no evidence to support it back then and they're just trying the same story again trying to make it stick.

He hasn't given a nazi salute to anyone, let alone the world. You're letting the media influence you too much. And he's one of the worst people at acting. He's always said more or less what he thinks.

Or maybe this story is made up just like the last one was that talked about this same event?

SpaceX knows the precise location of them but they don't know who is using them or for what purpose. Are you suggesting that SpaceX should have an open database available to the police of who owns every dish? It's interesting how

I really find it ironic that some people are still pushing the idea about the right dog whistling when out-and-out anti-semites on the left control major streaming platforms (twitch) and push major streamers who repeatedly encourage their v

I think you're a bit confused as to the truth of the situation. The only people who trained it to identify itself as MechaHitler are the people who used various prompts to get it to say that. Go try to find screenshots containing those
