I'm a 5'11" manlet and Elon is a few inches taller than me, he's definitely above 6'1", I don't think that counts as manlet stats. I do have a head of thicc lustrous all natural hair though.

>>60251308
He wears lifts in his shoes though. He could be as short as 5'9 for all we know.
>>
>>60251331
I've seen him wear running shoes to work before with thin soles. Again, I'm not exactly tall at 5'11" but he's got a couple of inches on me and I would imagine lifts would be somewhat noticeable.

Just wanted to say that SpaceX is on track for doubling the number of launches they had last year. With the two new pads coming online (boca chica, slc 40), SpaceX may be able to triple to amount of launches.

I don't get what so confusing about this. Ford is making tiny incremental improvements on technology that isn't ever going to improve much more and only dabbling around with new tech, while Tesla is betting their entire existence around doing proper R&D on incredibly promising technology that had previously been mostly ignored.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out which has greater growth potential. Ford ten years from now will be barely inscrutable from Ford today while Tesla will have changed and grown quite dramatically in that same time frame.

TLDR; company value is all about potential, and Ford's potential is low because its wants to keep riding the same old pony and keep raking in the cash instead of properly committing to and investing in its own future.

Did you know that there is a database of satellite positions and velocities that every satellite that is in orbit must monitor, in order to detect collisions? Did you know that every satellite in orbit has pressurized CO2 on board to use as propellant to redirect it's trajectory? Did you know that there are 1 trillion cubic kilometers of empty space in LEO? Did you know that there are only 2000 satellites in orbit, and 600,000 pieces of space debris? Do you realize how retarded you are? Will you please kys today and save humanity from carrying you braindead genetics on into our techno-utopian future?
>>
>>60252227
We can't unfuck it until spaceflight is cheap. Cheaply launching fleets of small, cheap orbital junk cleaners which are designed to capture shit and burn up in the atmosphere is vastly more practical than going old-space style and launching a tiny handful of larger, expensive crap cleaners.

Like what exactly ?
its not like they invented anything new, literally the Apple of the car world, except their slaves that make and design the cars are not oversees but in California and soon to be Arizona
Just look how so many people lapped up the idea of the powerwall, even though the ROI period for that thing is in the decades.


They just figured out how to market shit to young rich people.

You don't need to invent shit to provide value. All you have to do is execute well where others flopped like a dead fish, which is what Tesla is doing. Tesla is taking seriously what the incumbents decided to do nothing with or make halfassed token gestures.

naw, dog, I'm not falling for any bait. It's useful for people to read the facts, so that they might start to consider their own idiocy. I submit that shitposting and baitposting is the true bait.

Only somewhat related, but I have an ongoing bet with a friend: he thinks SpaceX will land a man on Mars (he needs to be alive on touchdown, but he doesn't need to successfully come back to Earth for the bet to be won) before January 1st 2030; I think they won't.

ever hear elon speak about AI or simulation theory?

he comes across as a brainlet. I know he has a physics bachelors and was a good programmer but calling the guy a "genius" is almost certainly silly.

He made a ton of cash with paypal, good for him. Then he invested in cool technology with smart people around him. None of that makes him a genius. There is so much money worship in our culture people get confused.

Kek, poor Zuck.

On a serious note, I get that much of this is just the usual 4chan contrarian shitposting, and obviously I'm biased since I work at a Musk company, but why have I been seeing so many Musk threads on here lately? It seems like there's a new Musk hate thread every day on here or /sci/ and it's usually just the same low effort bait.

I feel like I see more Musky threads than Zuck threads.
>>
>>60254189
I don't know, maybe it has something to do with the endless stream of braindead Musk-worship clickbait regurgitated by Reddit and the MSM
>>
>>60254234
OK, perhaps that's it but I rarely see SpaceX mentioned in the MSM. Tesla admittedly does get quite a bit of press.

And who cares what Reddit has to say, it's very easy to stay off the cancerous subreddits or simply ignore the whole site.

I guess I just don't understand the point of expending energy on this. With the exception of the exploding SpaceX rocket threads, this isn't even particularly good or entertaining bait.

>Design counts for nothing

Autists like you are why FOSS sucked mad dick for a while.

Design counts for a lot. Who gives a shit if you build the best lock in the world, if it only works on invisible doors.

Shit needs to work and be practical. A lot of the things that Tesla is doing weren't practical before.
