  • This comment was first downvoted, like, 10s after i posted it, thought it was by you so i mentioned it.
    This post&comment were downvoted because of Elon Musk, and i believe they/we are mistaken, if i don’t say it there’s not a lot of people here who would. Since i’ve already inquired about “your” arguments on E.Musk, i’m maintaining my accusation of a hivemind mentality until i’m standing corrected, any person who passionately hate him have very weak arguments in the end, but it’s not only the case about him, at least few people hate him because many lies were spread by our government, even if he received his share of lies(, e.g. the emerald mines and more).

    Your observation is weird because every datapoint on this graph is here to stay, it’s not a measurement, i don’t get it, you obviously don’t believe that the curb is gonna go up, and at most i could be accused of stating something that everyone knew for years, not something that people find hard to believe in.


  • Don’t know if it matters to point that out but, as stated here, the Starship has a capacity of 100-150 tons, for a gross mass of ~4600 tons(, 200-3400 tons for the booster depending on the fuel, and 120-1200 tons for the Starship itself depending on the fuel as well, at least if i understood correctly the wikipedia article, it doesn’t seem like the capacity is very high so it’s a bit weird, but it’s mostly confirmed elsewhere).
    They’ve demonstrated that it’s doable, succeeding 3 times and failing twice. Hence, they’ve demonstrated that they’re able to carry a payload into space, feel free to learn that you were wrong in your assessment(, like me/everyone on many topics,) and yet to downvote this comment as well 👍



  • On one side you have single-use rockets, and on the other side they’re reusable, it’s no wonder that the launch cost was reduced, don’t really look like a deception, but sure, since you instantly downvoted my answer you believe that this chart is still deceiving, ok
    And the estimate is confirmed all over the internet since (the first versions of )Starship have been built, and even launched multiple times.
    Not that i care anyway, just thought that it was a nice infographic(, especially since the y-axis is on a log scale), i’ll guess that it’s probably because of E.Musk that most of you are blindly displeased.
    Sure, a second downvote in a few minutes w/o arguments now, w/e…

    This third downvote for an absolutely factual answer on my part gives me the occasion to clarify something, since i’m convinced you only have a problem with E.Musk and not space exploration.
    So for those wondering, and eventually the mods wondering if they should censor this post for Musk apologia : i’m opposing E.Musk on his criticisms towards trans-rights and because he’s pro-capitalism(, like the majority of the world population, feel free to hate them as well).
    However, i’m supporting him because i’m an accelerationist and he’s n°1 in this regard, i’m also an ecologist, and i’m a libertarian and he saved 𝕏 from the same censorship fate that can be observed on Meta and Youtube(, and reddit for that matter). He’s also strangely opposed to neo-cons, e.g. by not being anti-China, even if i couldn’t have asked for that much.
    There are many people that i love/admire despite disagreeing with them on some/many topics, the same goes for you unless you’re hating everyone else(, or mistakenly&strangely believe that everyone agrees with you).
    And i’m opposing every single one of those here who are unable to disagree with the m.s.m. on a single issue, the same herd mentality that made me flee the reddit hivemind, it’s everywhere and you’re not different, isn’t it really weird how unanimous our medias are ? Yeah w/e, censor this post and/or ban me, or not i.d.c.






  • From the article cited : https://www.axios.com/2024/08/18/hamas-rejects-us-ceasefire-hostage-proposal

    More specifically, Hamas objects to the fact that the proposal doesn’t include a permanent ceasefire or comprehensive Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.

    Or from https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/19/middleeast/blinken-israel-herzog-ceasefire-talks-intl-hnk/index.html for example :

    Netanyahu shot back, saying Israel will not be “giving in to Hamas’s demand” to end the war in Gaza as a condition of a deal.
    “The Prime Minister has strongly insisted on this fundamental demand, which is vital to achieving the goals of the war, and Hamas changed its position,” a statement from his office said Sunday. “The Prime Minister will continue to work on advancing a deal that will maximize the number of living hostages and which will enable the achieving of all of the war objectives."

    Meanwhile, i’ve read 3 newspapers articles this morning(, in french), and they were only talking about the Egypt-Gaza border as the reason for why the deal was refused.

    Edit : I guess it’s implied that a permanent ceasefire will follow in the “second phase”, and a reconstruction in the third one. This comment was useless, sorry, it seems indeed that the problem came from the new israeli demands.
    It won’t end the many problems that Palestinians have to face, including the colonization, their many hostages, and everything else.
    If Israel can’t offer anything, and its allies won’t offer anything else, then they can still offer to be an islamic sect with jewish characteristics, recognizing Muhammad’s prophethood(, peace be upon him), and their neighbours as sisters/brothers, as one community. They wouldn’t lose anything really but add traditions on top of their current ones, while staying different, muslims waited a long time to be accepted by the previous generation. It’d help, Israel would be an islamic land, more specifically of the old jewish sect who celebrates Muhammad as the last Prophet, but with other muslims as well.
    If Israel took the heart of France, then we wouldn’t care as long as they fused with the rest of France later on.
