See, halfwits like you are why SpaceX is allowed to function the way it does. Barely 60% of it’s rocket launches succeed, nearly 40% explode either on the damn tarmac or in the air before they enter orbit. NASA, when it did it’s own launches, had a 97% success rate on ALL it’s launches. 3% of it’s rockets blew up in…
The land went from park land to commercial use. It wasn’t the National Park Service taking some land from the Florida DNR.
How are you this fucking stupid? That means that 79%, the vast majority of Boeing’s business doesn’t come from the government, which makes them not a government entity in any fucking way.
On the other hand, the deal was backed by Texas Parks and Wildlife Chairman Jeffery Hildebrand, who publicly declared that he was committed to seeing it through it during a meeting on January 24. “I am committed to moving this process forward and completing the transaction,” Hilderbrand, the founder of Hilcorp…
Except they’re not a government entity in any sense of the word. You can call them unicorn bunnies, it doesn’t change the fact that SpaceX and Boeing are private, for profit entities. That they do business with the government changes nothing about this status.
LOL GTFO with that nonsense. Spacex is a privately owned for-profit business that does *some* government work but a ton of non-governmental work too. Your idiotic comment is like me saying Boeing is “basically” a government entity because some of their planes are made for the military.
I mean, there’s just a tiny difference between transferring land between state and federal government versus transferring government owned park land to a for-profit commercial entity?
I bet his next idea will be a device that you can keep in your pocket that will display important notifications for you.
X owner Elon Musk is dreaming of a world where people ditch their cell phones and instead make audio and video calls on the social media platform.
I find Musk to be an awful human I deeply oppose his horrific behaviour of the last few years.
And yet I think he is right on this one.
The smart move would be to settle by returning his money. They were just valued at 80 billion dollars.
“Normally, those who donate money to nonprofits do not get to micromanage which company policies advance the nonprofit’s mission.” <== Simply not true. Principal donors are key to forming and guiding the direction of a nonprofit. Remaining nonprofit is not a “micromanaging” decision.
It’s not whataboutism to point out blatant hypocrisy. Tesla requires owners to have an account, yet Musk’s complaining about another company having the same requirement.
Karen Musk Has Computer Problem, Yells at People Trying to Help, Demands to Meet Manager
This is so stupid for two logical reasons.
If SCOTUS decides social media is a public forum and subject to 1st Amendment protection, there is nothing to stop advertisers from pulling out like they did to X/Twitter.
I’m sure there would be ways around that if it were desired enough. Consider the case of Shamima Begum born in the UK, who has had her British Citizenship revoked after being trafficked as a child to be married off to an Islamic State fighter. I would argue that Musk has done far more harm to far more people than the…
I’m in Georgia where this happened and there have been numerous other murders that nobody seems to care about if the victim isn’t white. Now the governor wants to fake outrage on the national stage over this one particular case trying to call out Biden on the border crisis.
It’s not anything abnormal, unfortunately.
It leads to the question, once again, of whether AI is being developed too quickly.
