SpaceX launches are on hold after a booster rocket toppled over in flames while landing. The Federal Aviation Administration grounded the company's Falcon 9 rockets and ordered an investigation following Wednesday's accident off the Florida coast.
Nobody here is giving any credit to Musk. Saying “hey this is a nice building, the engineers and architects and builders really did a good job”, is not giving any credit to my landlord, we all know he’s just a guy with money. Check your reading comprehension. We all hate Musk, he’s up there with the worst of the worst, I get it
Yes, this probably could have been done much earlier, and if it was we’d say the same things about the engineers and crew that brought that hypothetical project over the finish line. It’s cool to see things progress
edit: also I said proportions not size. Tall shit wants to fall over more than short stubby wide shit
Pretty sure I wasn’t shitting on anybody but Elon. The workers at Spacex have done good work, but it’s not some earth shattering change, it’s just a progression of already existing technology. They didn’t invent self-landing rockets, and at this point people can make self-landing R/C rockets with off-the-shelf hardware.
We disagree, instead of acknowledging that they went directly for the reddit-tier “check your reading comprehension”, which is extremely hostile so they got the pigpoopballs. I also blocked them because I don’t want reddit hostility on my communist website, so it’s a nice zero conflict result where I will no longer need to interact with them and vice versa.
If getting ppb is too hostile for you, I dunno what to tell ya.
I get that I was a little hostile and probably would have chosen a slightly different phrase if I were writing that comment again, but we literally weren’t disagreeing, I was just getting yelled past!

Don’t shit on talented workers because they have to work for an asshole.

This is needlessly hostile
