  1. This is flat earth et levels of bs. It’s sad seeing how far you’ve fallen

  2.  @anzaca1  literally nothing works perfectly the first time. The point of a test launch is to work out problems before something valuable, like people, are on it.

  3.  @AnEvolvingApe  so you’re saying human life isn’t valuable?

  4. After thickening the atmosphere some, it should be possible. There’s only one way to know for sure: doing it.

  5. You can’t trust him because of a gage item?

  6.  @RayCromwell  the point of Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) isn’t to have a launch business. It’s to get humans to Mars. I don’t think spinning off starlink would actually help SpaceX

  7.  @chimpana  what do you think SFD is? It’s environmental navigation AI.

  8. SpaceX is looking like they’re going to reduce the price to the point that Elon’s drive to get to Mars might just carry them. The only reason we don’t have the technology to get to Mars is because we haven’t invested in making them.

  9. Trucks accelerating too slowly is a major road hazard when merging onto highways, and the acceleration isn’t so much that it’s really going to damage the cargo.

  10.  @LorandHungary  eventually is the problem. We have a lot of defunct stuff in orbit that needs to be dealt with and to not be added to.

  11.  @gnaruto7769  yes, the broken ones can’t do it. The ones that are working can when their lifecycle is over. Just think a little about what you say so it doesn’t sound so god damn stupid

  12. You flat earthers of the auto and space industries are a rare breed

  13. You want to be the next “Solar Freakin’ Roadways!”

  14. Tesla’s have the highest safety rating in of any car. FSD is 10x safer than a human. They’re are 11x less likely to catch fire than ICE car.

  15. Thunderf00t you make some good points, but you mKe some glaring errors. The first is comparing a highly competitive industry (cars) to what was until recently a stagnant industry controlled by a government sanctioned monopoly (rockets). ULA had no reason to keep costs down. The government was going to come to them regardless. Second, comparing the Dragon to the Apollo capsule is like comparing a Tesla with a model T. While what they are and what they do is broadly the same, there have been major changes in how they work. For god sake, the Apollo used vacuum tube computers. The Dragon has a builtin abort system that allows for an abort at any point in the flight. The Apollo had an attached system that was dropped after a certain point in the flight. Third, you’re using the 1/2 trillion dollar estimate for a mission architecture that only a politician promising everyone what they want with no intention of doing anything would come up with. The plan was involved building an outerspace where the a spacecraft would be assembled. This spacecraft would then leave for Mars using electric propulsion powered by nuclear reactors that would be smaller and more power than has ever been built.

  16. Maybe in the mirror universe

  17. Be should be sorry for one of multiple future outcomes. Should apologize now for burning down your house. It hasn’t happened but it definitely might happen.

  18. I find it funny how you pretend to be smart when many of your questions are answered with some very simple geometry.

  19. Snow weighs a lot and can collapse your roof in.

  20.  @alexwright6038  some places you can’t build a roof strong enough to handle the snow load without making it needlessly over built.

  21. Tf00t, this tsunadere shit has got to end. It’s becoming a real problem for you.

  22.  @Turnip_  Yeah, and Tfoot is using the wrong numbers.
    1
  23.  @davedogge2280  that’s like saying Ford should have worked on new stuff rather than making the Model-T and that the Wright brothers weren’t working on new technology because other people had built gliders mashed together.

  24. The most advanced rover on Mars uses about the same amount of energy as a light bulb. It’s going to take more than a few light bulbs to change Mars.

  25. Or everyone else is making it harder than it should be.

  26.  @TheShadowReviewer  Tf00t is constantly comparing the second most profitable car company and the most prolific launch provider to a scam. When he’s not making factual errors, Tf00t is making the least charitable interpretation possible, like with the Teslabot. He was lambasting Tesla for hiring someone to wear a costume at the announcement. It’s common practice to have a mock-up, and no one considers them deception. Also, Tf00t likes to bad math to come to erroneous conclusions and then acts like the empirical data is wrong. He did it with calculating the cost per pound into space and cost of digging tunnels.

  27. I have a feeling you’re the type that gets angry when you realize the celebrity you’ve been talking to for the last five minutes is really a cardboard cutout. The actor in the suit was a visual aid and a little bit of entertainment.

  28. They went bankrupt last year.

  29. I wouldn’t call it a scam, but an idiotic plan from a bunch of idealists who didn’t know what they were doing.

  30. NASA had plans to be one Mars by the 80s. Nixon scraped those plans in favor of the shuttle, which put NASA’s manned program on standby for nearly the last 50 years.

  33. Basically a mock-up

  35. So you hate the man because he has Aspergers, and then you construct a counter factual narrative in your head to justify it

  36.  @figofagonagoitis  If you think he wasn’t officially diagnosed by a doctor, you’re an idiot. Moreover, he has every sign; obsessive behavior, working 80-100 hour work weeks; lack of facial expression; not understanding social cues and social awkwardness; extreme introversion; extreme honesty. I know you don’t trust him for having Aspergers because you said so without knowing, “His face expressions and eye movements indicate that he is lying.” It’s not uncommon for people to dislike those with Aspergers for not being as expressive and behaving unusually. Although, you’ve gone beyond that and found a bunch of lies to give your dislike a post hoc justification

  37. In the US we just build roofs with enough pitch that the snow falls off. Although, heated roofs are starting to be a thing

  38. Elon hasn’t inflated anything. Tfoot is using the wrong numbers. He’s confusing launch price with launch costs and comparing SpaceX to SpaceX, rather than competitors.

  39. Starlink sats are in very low orbit (vlo) to keep latency down. Sats in vlo naturally deorbit in just few years

  40. Door get stuck on other cars too, and gas cars are 11x more likely to catch fire.
    1
  41.  @alexthewrecker4666  I don’t care if the fire is more severe if I’m 11 times more likely to die in a less severe fire.  What says the Cybertruck can’t be?

  42.  @doncarlodivargas5497  can you use some proper nouns?

  43. I know next to nothing about programming, and I know your comparison between a vacuum and a self driving car is total bs.

  44. Except it was his money. He used his own money to fund SpaceX and Tesla, and nearly went broke doing it.

  45. People on Mars would be growing as much of their own food as they can. They can extract water from Mars and make oxygen from the Martian atmosphere or the water. Another thing they can make on Mars is fuel for vehicles to return people to Earth. Also, where are you getting that two year number from? It takes 6-8 months to get from Earth to Mars depending the trajectory you’re using.
    1
  46. Yeah, I have an extremely superficial understanding of how it works, and I can tell Tfoot has no idea what he’s talking about.

  47.  @LastTrueConservative-or4ps  I didn’t miss anything. You’re just an idiot. The base model of the Cybertruck is $50k after tax incentives, not the $100k. A fair comparison to the Cyberbeat model, the $100k Cybertruck model, is an F-150 Raptor.  To use your bad argument, I can buy two Cybertrucks for every Raptor a ton of more work done therefore the Cybertruck is clearly better.

  48. If you’re talking about Elon Musk, he hasn’t been part of PayPal in more than a decade.

  49. Looking for life and extending civilization to another world aren’t the obvious answers as to why?

  50. You give machines too much credit and humans too little. The probs we’ve sent to Mars are good, but a trained human could have done most of what they’ve done with a little bit of training and couple of tools. More complex science, like finding life, requires a human for the foreseeable future. Have you ever heard necessity is the mother of invention? People aren’t going to just sit around and say wouldn’t it just be dandy if we invented everything we need to build a colony on Mars for the fun of it?
