    Starship Orbital Test Flight - 4/20 Launch

    There are no immediate economic returns. Everything is a cost. Bit like when the first ships arrived in the Americas. Maybe Asteroid mining, low/no gravity manufacturing will be the next big thing.

    Starship Orbital Test Flight - 4/20 Launch

    I think apart from initially using the rockets themselves, Using Boring machine, Mars infrustructure (Aeroponics, Storage, Living quarters) could be initially underground rather than above. Maybe why SpaceX is just across the road from the Boring Company.

    Starship Orbital Test Flight - 4/20 Launch

    Might be a bit of a bootstrapping approach Firstly parachute/balloon /special craft robots and equipment down, and build the platform. Or the first landing could be a doozy lol Whatever happens it will usher in a new frontier.

    Starship Orbital Test Flight - 4/20 Launch

    I think the first thing Optimus is going to have to learn is how to make reinforced concrete pads on Mars.

    TESLA Hate and FUD

    End of the day , the right balance is crucial, and this is critical and very hard to achieve for any new product. It is like testing a Rocket.. prone to catastrophic failure in the early stages. Offer a similar product at a much more compelling price, you are probably not going to pay your...

    Q1 2023 results beat expectations

    They can spin all they want. Seems its softening, now this 'sales less than production', is a statement which passes the truth test. It will never really end. Financials carry significant importance.

    Portable Wind Tunnel at Giga Texas--

    Smoke test ? Maybe they have not setup the exhaust fans , and are doing it outdoors. ? Actually.. Did they smoke test before ? Maybe they are renovating, and have relocated outside.

    Here's how the death of GM's EV1 was the catalyst for Tesla

    I guess once the pressure to change was removed, as a bonus they had an epiphany to squirrel patents away so as to make it hard for anyone else. And continued on their merry way with ICE vehicles. Imagine what was going through their heads in 2008... They must have been so convinced Musk would...

    Hiro Mizuno: disappointed in Toyota & other Japanese auto makers. Wake Up.

    And VW is spending 140 Billion to develop its EV business, and it will develop a $25,000 EV. And GM will produce about 2 dozen models by 2021, and lately they are in the car insurance and Megapack business too. Oops..I think its now 50 models by 25/26. And Ford will ramp to 2 mill by 2025...

    3D Printing

    Drawing a long bow Maybe these manufacturers have a dire need to maximize profits from their parts business to hold them over as they hopefully transition to profitable EV's.

    Tesla margins will tighten as price cuts wage EV war: Morgan Stanley

    Tesla built 1.3 million cars in 2022. In 2023 the total will be over 1.8 million, even closer to 2.1 IMO. At least 600,000 of these extra cars will come out of these 2 new factories. ( Approx. 50% of last year's production. ) Average the costs. I still think they will be around 20%

    First Supercharger with Magic Dock CCS Adapter charges up a Rivian

    Brilliant. Granted some locations are tight for space, but I've been wondering when space is not a constraint, why they kept installing the old configuration.

    Subsidies in exchange for charger access+CCS standard?

    In 1984, I opened a vid shop. Beta or VHS ? Ordering and stocking the shop with more Beta seemed the best decision. At the time I heard a strong case for Beta. But in the shops, the majority of machines were VHS. Sony had a great VHS player which I bought ex display for $1000. There was...
