Starlink has already been discussed, but the Tesla in space/Starman thing wasn't as ridiculous as it seems at first.

It's super common for first flights of new hardware to include dummy payloads. The risk of the launch not going to plan is high enough that you don't want to push thing you really care about on one, which means other similar flights have just launched with things like concrete blocks as payload. That being the case there's no waste in doing something fun with it.

IIRC there was enough certainty about the launch that other groups were begging him to take literally anything of scientific import into space and Elon said "gently caress that, we're doing a meme"

No, there really weren't. For actual science missions the rocket is not the big expense. The B612 foundation wants to launch a telescope to look for dangerous near-earth asteroids, it would cost $450 million. The launch is 10% of that.

And like sure, they could do something with one of the little nonprofit groups like the Planetary Society to launch a bigger lightsail than the tiny one they've done before... but that would require a tiny unfunded volunteer group to have something ready to go on a schedule. And lastly, their lightsail thing is as much marketing as Elon's Tesla is. We knew that lightsails work, demonstrating them isn't a discovery.

Kinda, but by far the most likely thing for it to hit is the Earth, followed by Venus. Contaminating either isn't a problem.

From his Twitter he has family stuff going on and can barely keep up with his blog, so I'm guessing his SA shitposting has fallen by the wayside

Apologies if I'm being an idiot by missing an obvious joke, but Meta and "the metaverse" are unrelated. Meta is just what Facebook - the company - rebranded to, since they've been expanding into other things for a while now. Similar to how Google created Alphabet. Meta stock plummeted because their profits failed to meet expectations due to an increase in spending.

I'm sure you were probably joking but I've seen a few people confuse the metaverse for somehow being Facebook related, it's not. It's the stupid name that these crypto idiots are giving to their utopian world where crypto rules all and every aspect of our lives somehow lives on a blockchain.

I don't think anyone wants anything to do with anyone's metaverse, hence why Meta's stock is plummeting
