“let’s launch 100 rockets to refuel a single rocket to go to mars one time” this is why there aren’t advanced civilizations out there. any life with advanced intelligence realizes it’s dumb as gently caress and just stays on their home world

Update has bricked a notable fraction of remaining cybertrucks. Withe the added bonus that the charging cable is disengaged electronically. Meaning if you were charging while updating your car is now locked to your house via a live wire

Midjack posted:the uk did a similar stunt to bomb the falkland islands in the 80s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Black_Buck quote:The Vulcan was designed for medium-range missions in Europe and lacked the range to fly to the Falklands without refuelling several times. The RAF's tanker planes were mostly converted Handley Page Victor bombers with similar range, so they too had to be refuelled in the air. A total of eleven tankers were required for two Vulcans (one primary and one reserve), a daunting logistical effort as all aircraft had to use the same runway. lmao ![]()

theflyingexecutive posted:absolutely nobody here thought the chopsticks would work, that poo poo was wild the chopsticks almost didn't work, it was apparently just luck that they did. we only know about that because some high-up spacex engineer was briefing him on this as elon was livestreaming playing some game with the engineer on speakerphone of course elon seemed to not be paying attention and was just saying things like "wow." "huh" and "interesting", despite it possibly being a very expensive and very embarrassing failure the next time if they didn't remedy whatever went wrong (if that's even possible). i don't remember the details and wouldn't know enough about it anyway to say whether it worked despite failures or worked despite almost causing them, but either way there's apparently a good reason why they haven't tried to do it again Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 21:51 on Dec 31, 2024 |
