   @meowski @anemone @arcana @vriska musk is tolerated because literally no one else exists that can service NASA except Space-X.

     @TURBORETARD9000 @anemone @arcana @meowski @vriska you could give 10x as much money to the government and they couldn't do what Space-X does.

     @sun @anemone @arcana @meowski @vriska my first task as president is giving NASA the military's budget (including black ops)

     @anemone @TURBORETARD9000 @vriska @meowski @arcana the opposite is true, it saved massive developer time to do their user interfaces in electron. javascript is not used for core components

     @TURBORETARD9000@bae.st @sun@shitposter.world @arcana@fedi.layer02.net @meowski@fluf.club @vriska@lizards.live I think they could do considerably more than that and they would do it without javascript

     @sun@shitposter.world @TURBORETARD9000@bae.st @vriska@lizards.live @meowski@fluf.club @arcana@fedi.layer02.net cutting corners isn't something to brag about in this field imo and spaceX was able to piggyback on decades of NASA innovation and still hasn't accomplished a fraction of what they did in their heyday

     @anemone @TURBORETARD9000 @vriska @meowski @arcana they are putting things in space built from scratch for a less than a tenth of the price and dropping, and they invented a reusable rocket. you're just wrong

     @anemone @TURBORETARD9000 @arcana @meowski @vriska did you hear recently that the government was freaking out because space-x was making bids that other aero companies wouldn't even bid on because they couldn't do the job

     @TURBORETARD9000 @anemone @arcana @meowski @vriska I am not attributing any of this to Elon Musk personally just that it does afford him personally some freedom

     @TURBORETARD9000@bae.st @vriska@lizards.live @meowski@fluf.club @arcana@fedi.layer02.net @sun@shitposter.world I didn't say it wasn't, just that SpaceX's accomplishments are doing stuff that NASA could already do decades ago for less money.

     @TURBORETARD9000@bae.st @sun@shitposter.world @arcana@fedi.layer02.net @meowski@fluf.club @vriska@lizards.live SpaceX's main accomplishment is doing stuff that's already been done for less money which is nice but to act like they're the future of space exploration is laughable

     @TURBORETARD9000@bae.st @vriska@lizards.live @meowski@fluf.club @arcana@fedi.layer02.net @sun@shitposter.world Commercial industry in space and making it cheaper to put stuff in orbit is cool but it shouldn't come at the expense of genuinely new accomplishments and discovers like exploring other planets. If SpaceX beats government agencies to putting someone on mars I'll change my opinion.
