Did I say I have all the numbers?

My post is specifically asking to have the numbers made known/reviewed/audited.

Maybe take some time and read more carefully.

Thanks.

How much money did it cost to put something into LEO per KG before Space X started receiving government contracts? How much does it cost now? Those are really easy for you to look up and maybe reevaluate how much value you think Space X provides the USG

Actually, I know perfectly well what I'm talking about. They have a 50% failure rate.

50% Is a very brief period of time. If the test flights are 4 and the first 2 blow up. Yes, you're right. That's test flights. The remaining flights are safe, and the only possible harm is to sharks and whales, until Elon perfected the booster reentry failure rate to 0%.

I'm done arguing with a simple mind that wants people that have achieved wealth and eminence to die.

Every time Bua see's a Starship test flight fail.

The left all thought Elon was brilliant, a visionary, a genius, an all-around great guy until he began supporting Trump. Suddenly, he's stupid and a loser who contributes nothing to society. Typical.

Trump was fairly popular himself before he got into politics, friends with all the celebs and plenty of cameos in movies and TV.
For Elon the graphs point to 2021. His favorability with both conservatives and liberals was in the mid 40s for each, no real lean from either side, but after buying Twitter and supporting more right wing causes he nearly doubled his conservative favorability to 73 while his favorability with liberals dropped the other way almost by an equal amount hitting 85. That's politics in a nutshell, but it's also a pretty scary exercise in how good the media is at manipulating the average American.

I laughed out loud at the pic. As soon as I saw it, before even reading the caption, my first thought was, "Bua? Gattaca, Toronto and Cal?" This is exactly how most of us picture them! This could be our first picture of the BBSPC! :D

Those are LARPers guaranteed. BLM would probably scare those antifa dorks. That kid in blue looks like he had a stroke.

I'm pretty sure that's the Nazi salute. They're just trying to conceal it by clenching their fists.

I mean it "originated" from Ukraine, but likely came from some other entity that spoofed the location.

Possibly, possibly not. We got hit with an attack about four years ago. One of the locations was traced back to Ukraine. Another from Russia, one in Pakistan, one in France and one country in Africa that I can't remember. Believe it or not, a lot of them don't spoof, but actually rent space in data centers where they set up shop and launch their attacks. They can do a lot of damage before the data center operator catches onto what's happening. People hear about attacks from a lot of places, but there is a data center in France that is home to more cyber criminals than any other location. It's owned and ran by a criminal that takes a piece of the action. At least it was back then. France may have shut them down by now.

What Really Happened With the DDoS Attacks That Took Down X

Elon Musk said a “massive cyberattack” disrupted X on Monday and pointed to “IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area” as the source of the attack. Security experts say that's not how it works.
www.wired.com www.wired.com

Why, then, did these DDoS attacks cause outages for X? Musk said it was because “this was done with a lot of resources,” but independent security researcher Kevin Beaumont and other analysts see evidence that some X origin servers, which respond to web requests, weren't properly secured behind the company's Cloudflare DDoS protection and were publicly visible. As a result, attackers could target them directly. X has since secured the servers.

...

But one researcher from a prominent firm, who requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak about X, noted that they did not even see Ukraine in the breakdown of the top 20 IP address origins involved in the X attacks.
