That’s a shovel, but otherwise indistinguishable from the source material.

Wouldn’t work from home allow the government to sell office buildings it doesn’t need, and therefore save money?

They don’t have the attention span or memory to be good at being a DM, generally. I’m sure someone will figure it out in the next couple years though.

That only works if the other guy stops punching you when you try to negotiate.

It’s a good thing these guys never made a big deal of a sitting president’s son being addicted to drugs, right?

$40k a year sounds super reasonable.

That being said, it’s not crazy to ask the country who has been developing anti-Russian weapons for 50 years to donate those weapons to an anti-Russian cause. That’s what they were built for after all.

If you think that Starship has the exact same issues that SLS has you’re truly stretching reality. A billion dollars and two years is a TINY cost overrun compared to what they are doing. I know it sounds like a lot but for comparison, SLS costs like $2.5 billion per launch, not including development costs.

Ehhh, two years late for a rocket isn’t terrible. Space is hard.

But yeah 2030 is an aggressive timeline. I’m shocked NASA didn’t go for an Apollo-style service module and lander that gets assembled in-orbit, launched by Falcon Heavies. That seems like the least crazy architecture and requires very little new technology.

Slightly worse in design, far better in consumer-friendliness!

It’s the free market dumbass, boycotting isn’t illegal.
