   A couple of things. I am not sure that they need a use case for Starship's "bigger" capabilities. If a Starship launch ends up being much cheaper than F9 (like Musk claims), then SpaceX will be using it to send payloads to or

   Seeing how point-to-point is not their primary use case (or even secondary or tertiary), I don't see how this matters at all. I can see how maybe in the far future, when Starship has been perfected, they could possibly try it. Obvious

   Depends on how you use it. I've long ago unfollowed anyone that was toxic or political in anyway. So these days I am either looking at someone's new baby, or something someone had for breakfast or vacation photos. And I partici

    Yes, you are right. Not quite ready for GA just yet, at least not for the insanity of San Francisco driving. I would settle for having to intervene every now and then though. I have a base Tesla Model 3 and just the free "self-steer

    I had a conversation with an HR friend of mine recently. According to her, she is inundated with fake requests for unemployment from people that never worked at her employer. Or people join, then quit promptly and apply for unemployment.

    For me, the only need was using iMessage on non Apple devices. To solve that I am using a MacOS VM with AirMessage installed on it. It lets me access iMessage from a browser.
