Well ain't that precious?


Couldn't that potentially be a crime? Knowingly helping somebody impersonate another person or organization sounds like something that is probably illegal. At the very least it sounds like something somebody could be sued over. The mere threat of it might be considered blackmail.

The fact that Musk cares about NPR posting must mean the sitewide metrics must be trending downwards after all the fun and games of his takeover are over.

Environmental groups sue the FAA over SpaceX launch from Texas

The launch on April 20 kicked up a lot of dust and concrete.

Several environmental groups filed a lawsuit against the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Monday, saying that the agency had not sufficiently regulated the launch of SpaceX's Starship rocket from South Texas.

In the lawsuit, filed in federal court in Washington, DC, the groups say that the FAA failed to account for the damage caused by testing and launching the Starship rocket, which results in "intense heat, noise, and light that adversely affects surrounding habitat areas and communities, which included designated critical habitat for federally protected species as well as National Wildlife Refuge and State Park lands."

During the initial launch of the Starship rocket, on April 20, the environmental organizations say the launch "scattered debris and ash over a large area," including adjacent lands that provide a habitat for endangered species.

[...]

In a Twitter spaces event on Saturday night, SpaceX founder Elon Musk said the company was taking measures to prevent similar occurrences from happening, including installing a large steel plate and a water deluge system beneath the rocket.

"The debris is really just basically sand and rock, so it's not toxic at all or anything," he said. "It's just like a sandstorm, essentially. Basically a human-made sandstorm. But we don't want to do that again."

There was a video of a Christmas Lecture 4 years ago about how simple math mistakes affected real world things.
And it did a segment about the Arian 5 rocket that exploded in 1996.
Well they brought on a recovered segment of it, and had to use 30 years later gloves as it was still toxic to handle.

Elon Musk sucks and I don't know how to feel about this

oh yeah, there's a new Wondery podcast about Elon and how much he sucks, from Wondery of all people

https://wondery.com/shows/flipping-the-bird-elon-vs-twitter/

When Elon Musk posted a video of himself arriving at Twitter HQ carrying a white sink along with the message “let that sink in!” it marked the end of a dramatic takeover. Musk had gone from Twitter critic to “Chief Twit” in the space of just a few months but his arrival didn’t put an end to questions about his motives. Musk had earned a reputation as a business maverick. From PayPal to Tesla to SpaceX, his name was synonymous with big, earth-shattering ideas. So, what did he want with a social media platform? And was this all really in the name of free speech...or was this all in the name of Elon Musk? From Wondery, the makers of WeCrashed and In God We Lust, comes the wild story of how the richest man alive took charge of the world’s “digital public square.”

I'm glad someone's documenting this for the mainstream because what the gently caress is going on. It all seems fake. I'm still not sure he's trying to destroy it on purpose for... reasons?

He just wanted to attack it to look like a cool dude to the maga chuds. Then he was pretending to buy it because he was soaking up all the praise, but he accidentally said the wrong words or signed the wrong documents and he legally had to buy it. Big whoops.

It turned out that Twitter didn't have a bias in the first place, so he's just trying to make it work, but is revealing how much of an insecure jackass he really is.

Hearing from boat friends using Starlink for connection when they are at sea that they are suddenly getting messages from the company dropping their current levels of service and demanding subscriptions to higher priced plans that provide the same service they get today. Probably the only company Elmo can still drain money from to prop up his shitposting empire since Tesla prices are cratering just like his rockets. Sucks because it was a useful niche service for people but :capitalism:
