  1. SciFi writer Hugh Howey gets it. Leon it talking out of his ass. And that's if you assume he is even getting anything heading to Mars in 2 years (spoiler alert, he isn't).
  2. LOL. I have my concerns, but my showstopper is dooming humanity to death. Oh ok Leon.
  3. This seems to be the standard mode for watching him play.
  4. That little move to get space - SICK.
  5. So close! Spurs look really strong right now.
  6. Well there we go. Not a great start. That helps.
  7. So this was interesting. Tuesday the FAA proposed a find of $633,009 for SpaceX for failing to follow licensing requirements on two 2023 launches. That's proposed, not actually fined AND $633 THOUSAND dollars, I didn't leave out any numbers there. https://www.faa.gov/newsroom/faa-proposes-633009-civil-penalties-against-spacex Leon took it well: First off, these were FAA licenses, I'm not sure how this is overreach. And again, this was $633K!!!! WTF is he bitching about? However, to steal one from @Chopper: Today only saw them sending an open letter to the FAA:
  8. Glad someone has posted this, I was just getting ready to, but I don't need to. Just for a higher profile: This was the section that got me:
  9. This isn't about the pots. This is about how our team is performing relative to everyone else. We are playing shitty. And these ranking show this. Ranking are similar to ELO rankings, so it’s not just about the wins and losses, but who they are over too. Some of our losses are bad.
  10. https://www.newstatesman.com/culture/books/book-of-the-day/2024/09/how-elon-musk-killed-twitter Good review here at the New Statesman by Will Dunn
  11. There will be celebrations in Pyongyang tomorrow.
  12. Yeah, I just think it's the 2nd one there. He's red pilled himself so bad he can't help it anymore, his brain has been on purée for so long it's just leaking out of his ears.
  13. https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/17/business/elon-musk-richest-person-trillionaire/index.html TL;DR - this group estimated that his weath is increasing at a certain rate, so he will be a trillionaire by 2027. I have to say that their math is a little wonky, they basically have his net worth doubling per year with little reason beyond THAT as why he would hit the mark. When you look at reasons why his financials have increased, the main reasons have been primarily increased compensation, not an increasing stock price. So I find the doubling of his money dubious. This isn't to say it won't happen, but their math seems very generous.
  14. It must really suck to have everyone follow your every move on your own site so they can see things like this Normally I wouldn't step in THIS, but damn bruh.
  15. Liverpool & Milan are a contrast in styles on the counter. Liverpool on their last goal was quick, decisive, direct and easily had an open goal. Milan on the other hand has been slow and plodding. Their biggest failing is that they haven't made the necessary pass in most cases and let the attack die by being run down by the Liverpool defensive recovery.
