The whole post is ridiculous. Putting cars on the water and inventing boats is pretty funny though.

Raisins are also nuts, because they are frequently packaged with peanuts.


Welcome to lemmy. Crossposts as far as the eye can see.


You’re right, I should have. It’s a good article.


Space rocks aren’t made of plastic and stuff. The whole business model of space tech is as if Samsung started a recycling program where they just take everything they ever made out back and burn it.


You would said that?


Big Lube keeping the poor wo/man down.


Or spit on it first at the very least.


Paywall


Don’t forget Trump has made oil way more expensive. That’s a huge favor to the world and the things that live on it!


Sails are quite good at energy harvesting and propulsion but you won’t find any certified organic growers of fibres for sail cloth.


You should try real maple syrup some day. Table syrup comes from telephone poles


You don’t know enough about boat building if you think a modern sailboat is a good idea ecologically. Boat building uses nasty chemicals, very harsh solvents and produce ginormous waste. A modern sailboat has a gigantic environmental footprint. I have a 50 year old sailboat (with a modern outboard) but I never try to fool myself into thinking I’m making a recreational choice that’s good for the environment. I’m just out enjoying the day and trying not to think about the bottom paint poisoning the lake, the microplastics sloughing off the oxidized gelcoat, and the impact of the fire retardant the textile industry dumps into all the fabric I’m relaxing on, to name a few. Nice way to spend the day though!


What’s with the milk?
My neighbor said “I see you walking around with your daughter. And your grandkids.” my wife really liked that. Fuck that guy.


I get what you’re getting at, but I’d argue that we should look holistically at spacex. If their business model is launching a bazillion satellites and making a bazillion dollars we have to look at the entire launch complex as operating capital of starlink and spaceai. It all depends on starship launching a bazillion times a day so we should include development costs of starship as costs of starlink. The need for these businesses are necessary because the boom in private bookings of rocket launches that was anticipated with cheap launch services hasn’t materialized and so they have an airport and planes without passengers.
I ain’t no rocket economist but it seems “all the money” that starlink makes arent enough.


Just before everyone claps.
You make some interesting points, but I choose to believe a random screen shot.
