Obviously Elon's garbage.

Satellites are super useful, turns out. Falcon-9 kinda rendered small launchers irrelevant, at least for the present. Don't need a small rocket if you can ride-share. Older legacy systems are getting phased out, their new-gen replacements are behind in development because space stuff is hard.

Point to point travel looks just like an ICBM. It's a non-starter. Nobody's gonna do that. That's elmo taking poo poo/ No business model for Mars or lunar travel currently.

Militaries want satellites. Yeah, that's where the money is. They suck but they're not going away. I don't think that renders the concept of cheaper launchers bad. Earth environmental science, exploration, all need it. I don't want to write off better acess to space becuause some Boer rear end in a top hat made it one of his soapboxes

space sucks who cares and gently caress the dod

Elon Musk, on $TSLA earnings: Tesla is in a uniquely strong strategic position because we are the only ones making cars that technically we could sell for zero profit for now and then yield tremendous economics in the future through autonomy, no one else can do that.

It's always good to admit to customers that they're overpaying for a product.

It is equally good to admit to shareholders that your prices are uncompetitive but they might be better in some distant future.

This is just about NPR et al? It's a pretty clear false equivalency because SpaceX or whatever isn't a news company or something whose business is the dissemination of information. There is a legitimate concern over those sorts of companies having ties to the government and I for one would like to see more state funded tags on news agencies like Reuters.
