Musk is gross and SpaceX has some questionable marketing claims that you've identified, but I don't see how anyone could claim that anything about the company's products are a shitshow.

Falcon 9 has radically changed the economics of the space industry, and has no competition to force lower prices.

Starship has had a very successful testing campaign, and operates within a different development paradigm than Saturn. They've shown more progress on more technology in the last year than almost any rocket ever. It won't be long before Starship has demonstrated all the capabilities you mentioned. While the price tag is large in absolute terms, it will be very cheap relative to the competition.

Dear Moon was not canceled by SpaceX, and no one who follows the industry has ever believed Musk's timelines.

I guess I'm confused, because everything I know about Starship points towards it being one of the most incredible engineering accomplishments ever. There are lots of other problems with SpaceX's leadership, environmental impact, and work culture, but aren't the products inspiring?

This is really well done!

Worth it.

I've had luck with Proton GE as a solution to cutscene problems on several games.

clothes ,

Darn. You may already be aware of it, but ProtonDB is an excellent resource. People share their experiences with specific games, and quite often someone will have found a workaround for problems.

(Sorry for the delayed response, my app didn't alert me)

Cool! Looks almost ideal. Is max-q the acceleration drop at one minute?

Time to go scrub our bathroom floors to get the concept out of the universe's system.

Launch time has been pushed 30 min (7:30 local). The window is 110 minutes.

That fog cleared fast!

As much as I'd like for those rotations to be intentional, for now I'm assuming they didn't relight because they lost orientational control.

The launch window for the nearly 400-foot-tall (121-meter) rocket opens at 7 am CDT (12:00 UTC) Thursday and extends for 110 minutes.

I was really confused about what type of cross section I was looking at, but the second response gave a helpful diagram.

That's so soon!! I can't decide whether Pi Day is a coincidence here. Probably? The 4/20 thing has me permanently suspicious.

Hah. Only slightly embarrassed by how useful this is to me.

clothes ,

Woo progress!

I'm surprised that fuel slosh wasn't mentioned in relation to the booster filter problem. "Crazy slosh from hot-staging" seemed like a very convincing theory a few months ago. I guess this means hot-staging is here to stay.

What scanners do people recommend?

clothes ,

Darn I missed it. Glad it finally got off!

clothes ,

Really interesting, thanks for sharing!

I think there's a certain type of person who will read this and have their aha-moment about harm-based diets, and it's exciting that we're getting more ways to inspire such moments.

clothes ,

I'm sure it's reasonable, but I'm deeply unsettled by the thought that someone is going to press a "depressurize our entire spacecraft" button.

Excited for more details though!

clothes ,

Wow. I don't think I realized how gargantuan the megabay is.

~3 weeks (Elon time)

I reallyyy thought we were at 2 weeks (Elon time) and now I'm sad. Exciting to be inching closer though!

It may not be wise to enable 2FA until Lemmy fixes the implementation. It's currently very easy to get permanently locked out of your account, through no fault of your own. Especially if you don't have an email address linked to your account.

clothes ,

For sure! But I don't think non-advanced users should be enabling 2FA right now. It's puzzling that Lemmy pushed the feature in its current state to production.

clothes ,

If it truly offers a >10% payload to orbit boost, I'm super curious to know how the internal debate went. Wonder what changed.

So am I understanding this correctly that today's pour was a) directly under the OLM (where the showerhead is going) and b) in the yellow area?
