Did SpaceX build rockets to fuel Starlink, or did Starlink fuel the need for cheap launch vehicles?
Someone saw the ability to launch stuff into space more cheaply so a rocket company was born. This enabled the satellite thing because why not send up useful payloads while validating? Not chicken and egg I think.
I guess these are the same people who think that the vacuum of space will freeze you
Ummm, you will become "frozen" solid if your body is unprotected in space. No, you will not instantly freeze... but given enough time, your body will radiate heat until it is the same temperature as space itself... which is basically slightly over 0 Kelvin.
Or were you railing against the idea that a body will freeze as fast as if it were dropped into liquid nitrogen?
China had a practice run at this a few years back when it blew up a satellite with a surface launched missile and the Russians would try the same if they had any competence left in their military.
Yeah, and the US Navy shot a missile from a Destroyer at sea that took out a satellite immediately afterwards. They shot from land, the US shot from the sea, considerably more difficult.
I understand why you are arguing the way that you are; however, the law isn't really respected anymore. It literally CAN'T be respected anymore as the supreme court said that a sitting president is immune to all law. That means the law is whatever the president is willing to abide by. How can anything that is arbitrary actually be respected and followed?
Its a little tricky too, as children generally don't have suitable investment accounts that can hold publicly traded shares. I'm doubtful they even legally can open those accounts.
I am guessing you and everyone else here forgot about: https://trumpaccounts.gov/
Somehow or another, that is claimed to be a genuine government website. I feel sick to my stomach.
Here is the 'word' that you need: SCEP
That is all.
Sure, a couple of codgers might keel over in march, but they were probably gonna die soon anyway.
Fuck you dude. You have a problem and the only way you can think of to solve that problem is to move the clocks twice a year despite evidence that it hurts others. Fuck you. YOU are not that special. Get over yourself.
What this signals to me is that whatever you type in to an AI chat panel is a public document that can be shared with the government, and it will be if the owners decide to do it for whatever reason.
Um, that has been true for this website since it was founded. I am mildly surprised that you are only now realizing this is true for AI chatbots too.
The Supreme Court has roundly rejected prior restraint!
That doesn't matter anymore. They are no longer legitimate. They are clearly corrupted. Nothing they do can be relied upon in a legal matter.
Who is making mindless rants about Flock? People who have never felt threatened by crime and maybe some fucked up weirdos who are either casual criminals or secretly aspire to be ones.
Thank you for showing us that your lens is cracked.
Pervasive surveillance is antithetical to a Free Society. Period.
Weird. Communications just aren't all that important to you. *shrug*
Let's hope you never have a need for communications. Actually, since you do not want anyone else to have it either, I hope for ALL of us that a dire emergency where communication would save lives never happens.
I can agree that in non-emergencies, AM radio is an utter waste. I can agree that emergencies where major infrastructure is not terribly impacted, AM radio is a waste. If even one bomb gets dropped, you would be VERY glad for AM radio. The amount of infrastructure it needs is so minimal that a singular individual could stand up a station with minimal infrastructure. A shame all of the Radio Shacks are gone now. Makes it slightly more difficult to set up an AM transmitter.
I mean the software is impressive and all, but since when is someone with a user ID in the 400,000s a long-time reader?
This account has been active since 2004 or so. That counts as a long time. 20+ years definitely qualifies as a "long time".
They are doing the first step now. The second one may not be needed.
LOL, do you really think the leopard will change its spots? The second step is ALWAYS needed. Who is the leopard in this scenario? The one who has the power... currently a UK company.
12PM is fucking noon is when the fucking sun is at its highest position in the sky.
It has been like this for at least a millennia. DST is bullshit.
Live with nature and quit fucking denying it like a conservative.
*hug*
America had a republic until Lincolns' War of Northern Aggression.
Oh look, it's the hipster maggot come along to tell us all how great slavery was.
Look bro, have you ever heard this saying:
"The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all."
-- H.L. Mencken"
It was indeed, the War of Northern Aggression. The reasoning by the North was valid, the path taken was not. That should be fixed first. Centralized power is the ill that is killing the USA right now.
Since some people are unable to think clearly, what I am saying is that Slavery absolutely *IS* bad; however, the ends do not justify the means.
Some of my readers ask me what a "Serial Port" is. The answer is: I don't know. Is it some kind of wine you have with breakfast?
