William Gerstenmaier, SpaceX’s vice president for build and reliability, stated that Starship is ready for launch, but they are awaiting regulatory approval.

He also implied that the space division of the FAA needs a major reform.

“It’s a shame when our hardware is ready to fly, and we’re not able to go fly because of regulations or review,” Gerstenmaier said.

Elon would do good things with wikipedia, like add some kind of community notes feature and maximize unregretted user minutes.

wikipedia doesnt make money so he'd add a subscription service that allows you to read a certain amount of wikipedia articles per day and if you subscribe to a higher tier you can edit the articles

the problem with the information on wikipedia is that musk hasn't derived all of it from first principles and explained it in stolen memes

I see that long tweets don't have the "Show more" link at the end of the truncated text anymore. With Xitter, it's surely a new feature, never a bug.



Also makes Elon look like the ultimate reply guy, trying (and failing) to complete idiot incel's sentence. :elon:

Doesn't he have to mutilate and torture some chimps, blow up a couple of rockets or run over some kids with his terminator truck?

Jesus, I am basically retired and I don't have the time nor the energy to scour the internet 24/7 for dumb poo poo to reply to and become the greatest poster of all time.

Every single second of him pursuing that title is a second he could use to SAVE HUMANITY.

I'd like to imagine him as Liam Neeson at the end of "Schindler's List".
Not sure though if he will be like "I could have done more. I could have saved more lives" or "I could have posted more, I could have become a posting LEGEND!"

I should probably look into this "ketamine" thing.

tbh jimmy wales and some of the other wikipedia people went and made wikia as a paid wiki model after wikipedia

around the same tome wikipedia started to try and cut down on the really niche topics that fans made and suggested they should go to wikia

then wikia rebranded itself "fandom"
