What's more likely to happen is Starship’s will be launched where the entire ship becomes the telescope, and then we'll have arrays of these much further away.

Not sure if it's the same for radio, but for optical that means we can get a 9 meter mirror up there without any expensive folding mechanism, and who knows how big if we fold them as the fairing is not only wider but also longer.

Cost would go from billions to hundreds of millions or less. James Webb cost 10b.

The James Webb folding mirror is 6.5m and was folded into a 4.5m fairing...

The designs aren't only detached, they're made so they could be attached like townhomes while also easily moving between the variations.

So you could get a row of 4 townhomes where the outsides are 3 levels with a roof option A and the 2 inside are 2 levels with roof option B.

And then beside it you could have another row of 4 and have a wholly different configuration.

As long as there aren't problems with the designs, is that a problem?

To get costs down there can only be so much variation.

For anyone curious. Domestic cost is $20k.

So that's still like a 50 to 1 cost ratio on the kill, and I guess that doesn't include ordinance cost.

They totally can. I've watched them do it on their self checkouts.

Everything can be overridden with a manager.

That's totally a won't not can't.

Fuck.

It's also the go to excuse when getting called out when gaslighting someone.

Not that I'm fully up to date on all the madness this anti abortion stuff has caused, but I think these are the first actual deaths I've read about since the Roe ruling.

Lots of horror stories, people who will never be able to have children again etc, but no deaths.

Such fucking bullshit. I wish we could come back and charge the lawmakers with murder on this one.

Edit: And I'm sure there's been others, these are just the first I've seen.

The signs always have a reason

Is there a you fuck it you buy it clause like you break it you buy it?

Had the feds hinted they'd interfere in the railway one?

I'm surprised alternative facts hasn't come up.

2 couch 1 vance?

they don't even need to have passed the state bar in some counties

WTF

Edit: I'm an idiot and misread this as the LA/SF track.

I have zero knowledge of anything about LA and Vegas so I can't comment on it at all.

Like how many of your rulings in the past 10 years have been overturned

They said alcohol, not ketamine

While being attacked by a nation who promised to defend you from attacks if you gave up your nukes.

There are others just like him everywhere. It’s depressing and overwhelming.

Pretty much ya.

... brilliant scientific minds in there and they should be allowed to usher in a new age of invention

Not specific to cars but it's sad to think about what we could have had if we let these people build things properly. So many things don't happen due to money. Inventions and knowledge getting bought and squashed as it'd interfere with the bigger companies plans etc.

If you do it over 20 years absolutely it can be done.

But to do that and retire in your early 40's (40-43.33) as you suggest means people will need to likely meet in highschool or early college and work on it right away once they start earning income.

Unless people happen to create a similar plan 20 years prior and are able to find each other many years into their plans. It is possible, but it's harder.

edit: changed the perspective to people, not specifically you.
