nicki minaj is also successful. is she performing art ? i doubt so …
wow, moderation has tightened up during those few months i was away.
anyone who likes something I don’t is an idiot!
idiot in my regards ? ofc. idiot in general ? not really. this world is in fact run by idiocy. am i special ? not necessarily … but i am different. hope i am allowed such trait :/

i guess android 11 is still behind in this regard :/
cause i got complaints before on some of my posts that they aren’t color-blind people friendly, so i had to scramble on how to adress that.
i hope there was a similar app for it on android. apparently there is already one for ios thou
F1 is his money laundering machine! also what a stupid sport …
it is lifted from reddit, and i am not trying to hide anything. Feel free to mute my posts.
link edited. thank you :)
They’re not “powered” by fresh water
tbh i am not responsible for what u did understand. ur mind, ur rules. i hate to repeat myself but what i meant is that using fresh water to fill the locks passively using gravity albeit it is tempting it is in fact a waste of fresh water. so saving fresh water must be a priority and instead we could actively fill the locks using sea water, but at an energy cost, yet it is durable since energy is abundant (especially clean forms of thereof). tbh i am waiting on the day when i can mute notifications of replies to my comments, such a distraction really…
how about (ol’reliable.jpeg) megapacks? with enough storage and solar capacity to cover surge consumption ?
very reliable cloud
like all old century inventions, the thing isn’t sustainable since fresh water is finite, and the next thing close to regenerating those fresh reserves is energy-hungry desalination. might as well adress the problem head-on and power the canal with a power plant to actively fill the locks with sea water…but since its run by a third world country, i doubt they would do anything about it and instead act complacent and let things run their course
its a whole cult out there, the sync community. Also sync was released almost 2 months ago charging 2$ per month or 20$ per year with no major feature upgrades in sight. In the third party app realm, the more ,the merrier: I dont find sync intuitive, and Connect dev is on vacay, plus Boost loads way more feed than the latter. The rest of apps aren’t much pleasing for me, and ios apps are just lemmy apps for vegans or something…I dont know if any others 3p devs would join like Bacon reader or relay
lets see how this would pan out. also europeans didn’t make their ariane rockets as profitable as spacex did, and never achieved booster vertical landing. Spacex has a record of delivering on their promises, so they kinda should be taken seriously.
they aren’t creating any value: oil will be irrelevant because it got so much weaponized that it incentivized spending for renewables. Oil rich middle eastern countries invest in laughable assets like F1 teams and airlines, anything that would promote oil use. Airlines will ultimatly go instinct once SpaceX starts shuttling people across the globe in less than one hour, instead of what used to be 12 hour flights (less than 8 hour flights shouldn’t be feasable by Starship, or aren’t economically viable). Such countries have alot of money and just keep investing in trends.
If the “chopstick” landing doesn’t work out, the design could fall back to landing legs
does that imply that the latter method costs more fuel ? if by chopstick u mean the way Starship lands in the animation video, grabbed by the crane, to be mated with the already fueled first stage ? cause that looks like straight sci-fi :D man landing legs are already awesome
Once Starship’s up and running basically everything flying today will be hopelessly obsolete
exactly, no more price gauging,penny-pinching (like Ryannair that uses reverse thrusters at landing to save brakepads lol), weight limiting (airlines would board an obese person while prohibiting another from boarding with weight limit exceeding bagage) and maltreatring airlines like Delta. Tbh Elon needs to have a dedicated airline service, powered by Starlink wifi, at least he’s worthy of gov subsidies and he’s among the few who in fact did save the taxpayer a lot of money
this thread got too specific, haha! it reminisces me of the days when i used to read spacenews.com all the time, but i had to limit my internet’s usage and cut on SLS delay news. If the launch cost gets low enough spaceX could spin a telescope manufacturing subsidiary and launch telescopes beyond earth atmosphere and charge per hour subscriptions where u could point out the telescope where u want, that way it could finally silence the telescope amateur community that keeps complaining about how bad Starlink is at ruining their space observation, but again, just daydreaming.
interesting! so 150/22=6.8 ; 67/1=67 ; 67*6.8=455.6 . i know this is stupid math but Starship is apparently expected to reduce the cost of launch to LEO by a factor of 455! thats really high for expectations to be set. Yea, heavier Starlinks would reduce this factor maybe to 400 or something, but nonetheless, the weight changes shouldn’t affect the launch costs much at this point
Yea, Starliner is miserable. Also Northrop Gruman which is a taxpayer-money sinkhole. Meanwhile their argument would be: hurr durr we are creating jubs! 1000 jobs costing the rest of 300 million people a fortune
