You really think it took any time at all to write that? I was on Reddit for more than a decade, writing diatribes is second nature to me.

Besides, at least I put some thought behind my comments which is obviously more than can be said about some particular individuals.

oh aren’t you a treat. For a second I almost had you mistaken for one the few Moskal typewriter monkeys who remembered to bring a joke book, but now I’m beginning to worry that you’re own of my those fellow constituents of ours who’s succumbed to the brain rot.

At least we won’t have to worry about you voting for a few more years, judging by the way you act kiddo. Or perhaps you are old enough, but the polling place is too sus for your precious intellect.

Word of advice though, if you’d want any hopes of being employable or perhaps even making IRL friends, ditch whatever this is you think you’re doing with your attitude, it just ain’t working in your favor. While you’re at it, might also help to learn the definition of the word “untenable”-- if you need a visual example, any mirror should do the trick.

Anyway, maybe put down the smartphone and walk a natural trail or visit the library bud. Based on your comments, you owe it to yourself badly. I mean, if you fancy yourself a socialist then why aren’t you taking advantage of the freely available public recreational services that our tax dollars fund to live a better life? Everyone else is, and it makes dealing with this late stage capitalist hellscape just a bit more tolerable.

I’m confident enough in that to put my money where my mouth is.

SpaceX has been very transparent about their testing procedures and it is established that testing locations are always evacuated for any kind of test, as is required by the FAA. If you really wanna cast doubt on this, then why don’t we put some money on it?

Elon founded SpaceX in 2002. He said he wanted to build reusable, cost effective space platform where rocket boosters could land themselves and be refurbished with low turn-around times to fly multiple missions.

People laughed at the idea of a rocket that could land itself upright. And after countless tests that resulted in magnificent fiery failures and flops, a private American company is now responsible for launching crew and cargo to the ISS so we don’t have to rely on Russia or ELA alone, and has more recently gone on to develop the largest rocket ever made.

In the 22 years since it’s inception, SpaceX has designed it’s own:

• Rockets
• Engines
• Rocket Propellant
• Satellites and base stations
• Bespoke robust communications network
• Ground support structure (including a moving robotic tower named “Mechanical”)
• Crewed mission vehicle platform
• The world’s biggest fucking rocket

Say whatever you want about his beliefs, his opinions, his shit takes-- point me to another company that has done even half of that in that amount of time, or had nearly as monumental of an impact on the global space industry and America’s access to space in the last two decades.

And if y’all haven’t yet already, do yourselves a favor and look up NASASpaceflight on YouTube, watch their most viewed videos, which should be some of the SpaceX tests. You’ll come to understand why shit blowing up is normal and a good thing with SpaceX: because they prototype and develop iteratively and rapidly, intentionally testing to failure so they know exactly how far from failure their nominal conditions would be. If they did not do this, the platform would not be safe and they would be getting fucked by a camel wearing another camel’s skin for kicks.

Personnel are evacuated from McGregor whenever a test is to be performed, just like they are with Starbase.

There is absolutely zero chance anyone got hurt. This isn’t Boeing.

… the reading comprehension level of the average Lemmy user scares me

I literally said that I take the bus. And the shuttle.

Do people consider shuttles and buses the same thing? Because this sounds like a shuttle, which as far as I’m aware is completely different from a bus. I take a shuttle to the airport, which requires a reservation and ~$50 whereas I take a bus to get around town and it’s typically free.

Essentially it sounds like they are trying to dip into the shuttle market, not the inner-city bus market. Though maybe both?

Don’t look at me, you’re the one that wanted to start playing armchair attorney bud. Don’t get upset just cause you less practiced at this shitty game.

you assume someone writing a green text is capable of speaking to women, trans or otherwise.

If we are to interpret explainer text meant to inform the public as word of law such as you have:

The civil harassment laws say “harassment” is:

• Unlawful violence, like assault or battery or stalking, OR
• A credible threat of violence, AND
• The violence or threats seriously scare, annoy, or harass someone and there is no valid reason for it.

The actions described in the green text could be interpreted as a credible threat of violence that is seriously annoying/scaring the individual, as they specifically mention how brave it is for trans people to show themselves in public, when the victim has never initiated the discussion or topic and has made clear both that they do not qualify for the classification and are uncomfortable with the label. This, by your logic, would make it civil harassment.

I’m also like 90% sure that “we don’t support it” is artificial, been meaning to test it.

My Firefox install at the office works fine with Teams but will refuse to load at home. I think it might be a version issue, but I’ll try to establish parity to make sure it’s not Microsoft being fucky thinking they can shaft anyone using Firefox/Linux outside of the office.

So, technically speaking, an ace individual cannot find someone sexy? They can have sex with someone for the sake of having sex, be it for bond or pleasure or whatnot, but from what you’re saying they do not show any sexual attraction towards any demographic of people?
