Isn’t that sad, that their lifespan is so short. One of the (many) reasons I’m a cat person over dogs is because of how much longer cats generally live.

4get, I self host an instance

You could be right. I have not been alive that long and I must admit I’m not super educated on the exact timelines of many older programs. But in my lifetime, all the exciting programs have been delayed by a lot.

I guess I confidently spouted some incorrect information if you were right.

I totally get your point, but I don’t think SpaceX has any engineer problems. They’ve had a lot of issues with their test articles, but as far as it seems, that’s sort of by design using the move fast and break things philosophy, which obviously isn’t good in some ways. But it worked for the Falcon 9 landings, and it’s going to work for starship, and all the detractors and haters will say nothing in five years when Starship is an extremely successful program.

I think a lot of people fail to see the extreme space fans and engineers who are super into space are willing to suffer through some of these things to work on what is actually the most incredible space program in our lifetime. I wouldn’t do it. I’m not an engineer though, and I really do fucking hate Elon Musk. But I say it again. Starship is awesome, and it’s going to be extremely successful, despite what you may believe now. SpaceX has a very long history of proving the haters wrong, in fact I can’t think of a single example when the haters and people saying “its impossible” ended up being right long term

You got them on a technicality. But multiple test articles have pretty much reached orbit, intentionally just missing orbit so they would re enter in a known location should something go wrong, and something has gone wrong most of the time.

I’m excited for the staship program because it’s the most exciting spaceflight development in my lifetime, yes fuck Elon but that doesn’t change the facts of how exciting the program is for a space lover. The upcoming launches with v3 hardware are going to be very exciting, hopefully most of the kinks have been resolved.

The more pressing issue IMO is that they haven’t really shown any of the moon landing hardware, which will be substantially different than the Starship articles they are using for testing now.

I don’t think you’re educated on the matter because landing on the moon with the mission plan that they set out requires the lunar gateway to be in place, it is not and likely won’t be for a long time. It was going to be impossible to land on the moon by the third mission (unless significantly delayed) no matter who was in charge. Like all ambitious space missions in history, it will be delayed, delayed, and delayed again. Sadly that’s how it has always been.

You shouldn’t confidently spout incorrect information

“The aerospace safety advisory panel recommended that Nasa rethink its objectives for Artemis III, … The panel said that the call for a revision was urgent, “given the demanding mission goals”.”

The fucking safety advisory panel suggested the change moron dude, not Isaac. But yes fuck Elon cuck the pos ket head

Edit: removed unnecessarily rude words, sorry I’m just an asshole

Appreciate your explanation!

Good thing this will be unenforceable for open source software, or at least things can be forked if they are maintained by bigger companies that need to comply.

Same, my unraid server is over 40 tb but I only have ~1.5 tb of critical data, being my immich photos and some files. I have an on site and off site raspberry pi with 4tb nvme SSD for nightly backups

Still using sync daily lol, am I missing out on features of other clients? Any ones with as good of design as sync?

I think the laws the government are passing around online Id requirements and trying to force companies to break encryption so they can have pervasive surveillance powers are very dystopian and the main thing I’m talking about. I’m sure the people and cities are very nice though, I’ve never been

The issue happening in Japan is that there won’t be enough young people to support all the old people who can’t work

Could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure the original comment is talking about how the UK is pretty fascist and dystopian as well.

Right, why leave China when you’ve committed that much already and risk prosecution

Sensationalists and pretty much false headline

Open source software like GrapheneOS is the only software you should ever trust to not be government spyware.

Nature is cruel, and that includes humans in general. I feel like that’s a known fact

Haha I am sadly quite far from you. They are all well fed atleast

I have ~5 polydactyl community cats in my neighborhood, use to be 7. I’ve adopted one of them, and another that is bonded with it that isn’t poly. My dad adopted one of the poly’s as well. If anyone wants them we have free polydactyl cats out here.

It was actually the neck, lots of gushing
