Does anyone have a link to those tweets where someone was claiming that the SpaceX launch failure was absolutely, directly Elon's fault for removing some piece of safety equipment? Or is there any truth to that at all? I looked back a couple of pages and couldn't find it.

It's absolutely hilarious that every one of these people think that it's the $8,- that is the problem and they're basing all their arguments on this false assumption. And then getting absolutely furious that everyone is mocking them over it. Not gonna lie, Twitter has been extremely funny these last few days.

Love seeing people watch others get thousands of likes, and presume the reason they don't also get thousands of likes is because they are shadowbanned - rather than the fact they just absolutely nothing of note.

Then again, given that Catturd seemingly JUST posts whining and grievances and posts nothing of actual value I can see why they might think that. I mean, even compared to other right wing grifters he's bad. It's not funny, it's not insightful, it's not even rage baity, it's just whining.

Current bird technology is woefully inadequate. They can't even reach the troposphere, let alone make it to Mars. About time someone slapped some booster rockets to them

Yeah, hate on SpaceX all you want, but they've basically been running under the actual cool and good stewardship of Gwynne Shotwell.

SpaceX is probably happy to have Elon tangled up in the Twitter debacle since it keeps him away from actually loving around with their rockets. I'm sure he has episodes where his back pain meds are overprescribed and he insists on being let onto the premises. They probably let him flail around like an idiot until he leaves.

With 14:45 - 17:05 from this video as context, could you elaborate on why you believe this about Gwynne Shotwell?

it was, originally under the name birdwatch

elons contribution was mistakenly referring to it as community notes then making the devs rename it to that so he was correct

It does sound insane. It also isn't very flattering for all the other launch providers that this Wile E. Coyote crew is eating their lunch in the commercial launch market.

Multiple space rockets per day polluting the air, wasting fuel and raining their first stages and other space junk onto the heads, homes and workplaces of the poorer (no doubt targeted to miss the mansions of the rich).

And all so the very rich can shave a few percent off international travel times (those of them who don't mind extreme acceleration/deceleration).

Another "great" feature of the Musktopia. gently caress you Elon, and gently caress all your lackeys and fanboys.

It really is hilarious how in the span of one day the concept of a blue checkmark on Twitter is completely ruined to the point that seeing one now indicates that they are a nobody and/or a huge loving rear end in a top hat. Someone else mentioned it but I really wouldn't be surprised if they added the ability to buy checks for other people just so the musk sycophants can keep dumping money into Twitter by forcing checkmarks on celebrities they want in their super cool club for cool guys.
