This. That Falcon Heavy launch last week? Wasn't commercial geostationary stuff. The programs that use those "I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you" grade spysats would be more than a little bit unhappy if they were left on the ground without a ride.
So sort of like our entire nuclear arsenal? Building that stuff created tons of jobs.
I've seen enough sci-fi to know that we must have the means to destroy Mars before we colonize it, otherwise they'll go sepratist first thing they do.
I never said weapons were a bad investment, but a Death Star would be. Unless you're in a universe like 40K where you might need to write off an entire planet because its biosphere is in the process of being eaten by extra-galactic bugs, you can't justify a planet cracker for military use.
Corps have been in a hire freeze and are also laying off people. Think about it: you have 4 months of pTO but you're do nothing retard with no accomplishments. Who's going to hire you?
Do what all the other useless people do and start an OnlyFans
Considering it's mostly jannies they might want to try OnlyTrans.
This is his best prediction.Why spend 44 billion dollars if you can't have fun with it?
Also fun fact about Paul Krugman: He once wrote an article about how building the literal Death Star would be great for the economy.
Yea. Back on Thursday night/Friday Morning when they happened.
Remaining managers are phoning up hundreds of techs laid off on Friday and begging them to come back, so it sounds like it’s all going according to plan.
I think that the death star is big enough that building and upkeeping it would cripple most non-death star industry on Earth. He was specifically talking about Earth building the death star. The empire in star wars can afford it because they have a whole galaxy to draw resources from. Even then they would have gotten more bang for their buck out of an equivalent cost number of star destroyers
It brings me great joy to see twitter get debased and financially fucked over. Ever since twitter stopped being a "stupid thoughts" site and started becoming the online political public square (at least for the USA) things have gone down hill. I can not tell you how much it makes me want to claw my fucking eyes out seeing dozens of "AOC CLAP BACKS ON TWITTER" "TED CRUZ LIKED LESBIAN PORN ON 9/11" "BERNIE SANDERS TWEETS FREE HEALTHCARE" type news headlines every week. The fact that a site that limits thoughts to a sentence or two at most became legitimized politically (mainly due to the President using it everyday for 4 years) was abhorrent enough. But Twitter is such a cesspool that moderators could barely stop (and probably didn't even want too) actual CP accounts let alone the rest of the disgusting degenerates that skate on by. It also makes me smile that Musk is the one to do all this, the dude is such hack and its been so much fun watching an obscenely powerful and rich man waste billions of dollars because people said mean things to him. Imagine having enough money to spend everyday on a private island with pristine beachs, the most beautiful women, the best drugs around, the most delicious food and with enough money left over to do it for 50 lifetimes and you decide that being MATI is more important. Its amazing.
It at least gives Elon one potential way to attempt to curtail the death spiral, while simultaneously giving some of the advertisers a reason to get back on board, i.e. get rid of the CSAM. Let's just say that would probably also involve purging a lot of the so-called "activists" for a particular demographic.
I'd still definitely be a contractor on that project. Because fuck this gay Earth.
The moment Twitter dies Jersh will take KiwiFarms public and all of us will be shareholders of the biggest lulz trove in the Milky Way.
