So, let me get this straight. A waiter walked to and from the kitchen three times and you thought he should be tipped double for that but not the deluged kitchen staff that slaved in the hot kitchen and made the extra appetizers. And same kitchen people that made the pizza also get zilch.

All because you were once a lazy fuck also on the laziest most overpaid job in the restaurant. Well, congrats. Your story was boring and predictable and full of itself. The basic logic makes no sense.

I didn't say it's impossible, I said it's nonsensical. That's why no big test models are built. Something longer than a mile. What is the longest? 500 meters? It gets abandoned because it's a stupid in practice.

Rockets are going to remain dangerous because of the fuckton of fuel in them vs their mass. That's fucking inherent. Add in a shitton of other problems. The concorde eventually got abandoned after its first crash (?) in decades, mostly because it was crazy expensive to run and the incident gave everyone an excuse to make a way out. That was just a fast a faster plane relying on the same principles of lift, not rocketry. No one is going to do point to point rockets anytime soon.

The koolaid is flowing fast and freely here.

but 95% of the "Musk disproved" shit is clearly coming from people who don't even have a basic grasp of the physics involved, much less the engineering.

Rich talk about a man who seriously proposed a failed 100 year old concept known as the Hyperloop which should be nonsensical on the face of it, but Muskrats took seriously for years (and some still do).

What should I summarize about anybody who takes point to point seriously? Rocket flight is dangerous, it's not gonna turn into a 30 minute Super Concorde.

Yeah, that's great hun. Except this was no trolley car problem scenario. I doubt Mercedes has in mind to cause a fucking accident when they don't have to, unlike the Tesla which rearended fucking Motorcycles in highway conditions with no need. "Oh look, that two wheeler is coming right for us." Tesla unleashes its gatling gun.

And if Mercedes did run into motorcyclists, I'd fully expect them to get litigated and sued.

Fucking moronic. I don't even know the purpose of your commentary other than to put your idiocy on full display.
