Garbage regulations like IP create these behemoths. If you want freedom, stop regulating monopolies into existence.

He's the same kind of con man as Trump.

He railed against the Banks so when Ron Paul's Audit The Fed bill came to the Senate he cosponsored it.

Then behind closed doors he killed it to protect the Banks. Same way he endorsed Hillary with zero concessions after she maligned him and stole the primary.

It's all Kayfabe and he's a multi-millionaire communist for his efforts.

This proposal is just the latest Theatre Kid stunt to get him some attention. The only kind of attention he deserves is derision.

You don't even want to know about the rumored blackmail event. ("Crying Bernie Sanders" is the most vile rabbit hole.)

> Just build some fucking windmills and stick them to batteries and you'll be fine

Please compare the human death rate of wind and solar to atomic energy.

Yes, workers lives matter.

Might as well do coal too.

Also, we have a moral obligation to transmute the 300,000-year waste that the postwar generation left us with (besides their mountain of debt and impossible Empire).

Don't get me wrong, there's a lot to say about printing small rocket parts, such as for the engines. But they were printing basically sheet metal cylinders, which is such an immensely slow and inefficient way to go about it, and it left them with parts that were heavier and less aerodynamic (rougher surface). Crazy that idea ever got any funding.

The one seen over Moscow might have been, with a bit more thrust...

"SapceX has got to be a huge scam too" - SpaceX launches the vast majority of the world's commercial cargo to orbit. The Falcon 9 FT has the highest success rate of any rocket with a statistically significant number of launches under its belt, and is dirt cheap. SpaceX's core operations are roughly breakeven, but that's including subsidizing the development of Starship. Starlink is a money printer.

There are lots of things sketchy about the SpaceX IPO, to say the least, but SpaceX, as a company, has been extremely successful with rocketry.

Is that true? I can't find any reference to it, and it seems like the kind of thing that would be documented, if only to make fun of it.

Statism creates billionaires.

MidJourney was the first sizable AI company to become profitable, having done so back in 2022.

Someone needs to maintain the pipes! It's just a series of them.

That's basically what every teenager and every disfunctional relationship does.

"You never pay attention to me!"
"Well, if you paid attention to me, you would know how much I am dealing with!"

It doesn't matter if it's factual it just matters if you get the tone right.

If the company doesn't have a QA team, if the company doesn't have negative unit tests, if the company hasn't trained their employees in secure coding practices, if the company doesn't have a system to avoid SQL injection exploits, etc

Then the company is at fault.

The company that wrote the bug in the first place is the enabler of the crime. In 99% of these cases, if you look at their unit tests you'll only see positive tests. Fail at best practices.

Announcing the exploit publicly allows people who use the software to take proper protections (like putting behind a firewall).

Property tax in California is difficult because of Prop 13. No one wants to raise it.

LOL everyone outside of LA hates LA. Dirt bag slutty water thieves.
