Of course. He needs to get his building sized exploding metal dicks less explody soon, or his fucked.
But they literally make them explode for the shits and giggles. They even say so in their schedules lmao
Idk why he’s obsessed with mars. He wouldn’t be going. Even his money couldn’t create a magnetosphere.
There’s sand and rock. Maybe some ice. Complete desolation. That is Mars. Even Elon’s money couldn’t fix Mars. Mining an asteroid for rare metals would make more sense, but I doubt it’s feasible.

Said by same people who furiously applaud when shit blows up again.
Yea, makees no fucking sense to me. Like, its supposed to be reusable yeet you blow it up, like, come on
The guy that nazi saluted on live broadcast twice did this? Not shocked at all seeing the attrocities the nazis and communists did to the Ukrainian people.
Either someone buy out Starlink, Space X, and Tesla or create a better company would be great in the current timeline.
I know this one, you call up spectrum and you get a year trial.
"Would you like to upgrade to our non-annihilation plan?"
- Corporations in 2026, apparently
Apparently the TOS muskrat claimed were violated by Ukraine using starlink for ''offensive'' purposes, were really just TOS for the lower paid service level.
The president cut service though. Musk does what he is told with prez, his entire fortune is based on government contracts, he would never defy prez, he was clearly asked to take the blame for this, and OP here is misguided to repeat that lie without moderation.
Putin may have delivered a "that's a nice satellite system, it woukd be a shame if something happened to it" message.
More like, those are some interesting tapes and evidence of you mr us president fucking children. Be a shame if they got released along with the pictures of your tiny dick, and all that.
Besides, satelite wars are a dangerous game, both the US and russia have them in place in orbit, and both have been making suspicious maneuvers I read. China probably too but idk what they are up to. But once it starts, it will cover the orbit in debris that will make satelite launches much more dicey as even a speck of dust at the speeds involved can break one of these satelites.

“Sure would be a shame if something were to happen to your service…”
It's like running with a bucket of water to a burning man and saying "I'll douse you, but it'll cost you 100 bucks"
So…. Xfinity?
Because Starlink is where most of SpaceX's revenue comes from and it doesn't turn a profit.
"reportedly"
my ass, try "positively"
If true, these guys are really disgusting. We will see the day when he falls.
Starlink fastest growing revenue base is now governments vastly outpacing the growth of their consumer market. It is clear this is the real goal, to weaponize this technology.
Fuck no.
I see billboards for Starlink Roam and the tagline is "Roam Anywhere" or something and I'm like "Except for Ukraine, apparently."
After that EU money
