@miami_rick Brakes inop. As soon as they store the reversers in the plane is moving fwd again.

I’m not one to Monday morning quarter back but after just running into a bunch of air bridges, how the hell is using reverse thrust to back out of that mess a good idea?

@grok @JasonVayanos @novotny20 @RaminNasibov LOL

Uploaded my floor plan to ChatGPT to see how to arrange my bed and wardrobe. The result:

@SawyerMerritt Let's say they launch V3 Starlink sized sattelites with Starship, that are 60 per launch. They would need ca. 16k launches to get them all up. With a sattelite lifetime of 7 years before replacement they need 6 to 7 daily launches to achieve this. LOL.

BREAKING: SpaceX is requesting to launch and operate a constellation of 1 million satellites with unprecedented computing capacity (orbital data centers) to power advanced AI, according to a new FCC filing. SpaceX: "Launching a million satellites that operate as orbital data centers is a first step towards becoming a Kardashev II-level civilization—one that can harness the Sun's full power-while supporting Al-driven applications for billions of people today and ensuring humanity's multi-planetary future amongst the stars." In the SpaceX filing: • SpaceX aims to deploy a system of up to one million satellites to operate within narrow orbital shells spanning up to 50 km each (leaving sufficient room to deconflict against other systems with comparable ambitions). • System will operate between 500 km and 2,000 km altitude and 30 degrees and sun-synchronous orbit inclinations. • SpaceX plans to design and operate different versions of satellite hardware to optimize operations across orbital shells. • System will rely nearly exclusively on high-bandwidth optical links for communications. These optical links will route traffic within the network and to satellites in the Starlink constellation, via its high capacity (petabit) and high reliability laser mesh, which in turn will transmit traffic to authorized earth stations on the ground. SpaceX added: "With Starship's ability to deliver unprecedented tonnage to orbit for AI compute, the capacity for intelligence processing in space could surpass the electricity consumption of the entire U.S. economy, without the immense cost and disruption of rebuilding Earth's strained electrical grid to support the explosive demand for data centers. In turn, satellites that function as solar-powered orbital data centers are the most cost-effective, energy-efficient, and environmentally sound way to build infrastructure to meet accelerating demand for Al-enabled goods and services. With the inherent efficiencies of deploying solar powered data centers and launch cost rapidly decreasing due to the development of the Starship launch vehicle, SpaceX will be able to cost- effectively scale up its constellation as demand increases and compute evolves. For instance, launching 1 million tonnes per year of satellites generating 100 kW of compute power per tonne would add 100 gigawatts of AI compute capacity annually, with minimal ongoing operational or maintenance needs."

@derhagemann Wie bekommt man die Akzeptanz für die Schiene nach oben? Neue IC in Dienst stellen und ICE draufschreiben um höhere Ticketpreise zu erhalten. Und für den neuen Zug nehmen wir ein Modell, dass schon im Ausland negativ aufgefallen ist. Strategie powered by Deutsche Autolobby.

@DJSnM @pascal_bornet Wait, I didn't realize this is an external device not even physically connected to the phone camera. This means I need to charge both? Ok, this is actually different but in an, let's say, interesting way. 🙃

@DJSnM @pascal_bornet Right. Also "28 years later" they used iPhones with external lenses. And there had been other movies before. This is already a well known use case and nothing wild and new.

The smartphone just declared war on the camera industry Xiaomi just dropped a wild idea: a smartphone with a detachable pro-grade camera lens. A phone that snaps on a real lens with magnets. Yes, magnets. It’s a clever move at a strange moment in history. Camera sales keep falling. Smartphones keep rising. And the real arms race isn’t glass anymore — it’s AI-powered image processing. As an AI guy and a photographer, here’s my take: Hardware won’t save the camera industry. Software will. The future of photography is no longer in the lens… it’s in the algorithm. Phones will keep getting smarter. Cameras will stay for the purists. But detachable lenses? Feels like a bridge between two worlds that are already drifting apart. But maybe I’m wrong. Maybe this hybrid future has a place. What do you think — genius innovation or a beautiful dead end? #AI #Tech #Photography #Innovation #Smartphones #FutureOfTech

@CNSpaceflight By doing this they can max out payload capability but still reuse their booster. No legs means less weight means more fuel means more delta v. Is it dumb? Sure. Did they copy all the cool stuff only to look innovative? Sure. Is it insane and we want to see it? Heck yes. 😅

SpaceX: "We land Falcon 9 on boats." SpaceX: "We catch Starship with a tower." SEPOCH: "Hold my Methalox. We’re going to catch our Falcon-9 class Starship-like XZY-1 using a tower mounted on a drone ship. Because landing on a deck is too easy, and catching on land is too boring."

@Cmdr_Hadfield In 2006 Thomas Reiter became an astronaut by riding up on STS-121 to the ISS along with Mark Kelly et. al. He came back on STS-116.

This was such a fun photo to set up, to get the right lighting angle as we circled Earth, and to make time during the frenzied docked schedule. It was taken on a film camera by cosmonaut Thomas Reiter through Sergei Avdeev's sleep station window on the Mir space station. The sun was so bright in our eyes we (the Atlantis crew) were all squinting like crazy, waiting until Thomas confirmed he'd got the shot. But I love how it shows the texture of the Shuttle's rough, protective hide, and the glimpse of humanity (and my moustache) against the eternal blackness of the universe.

@eeldenden Smooth transit across Europe depends heavily on the German railway. 💀 Sorry neighbors.

🇪🇺🚅 High–Speed Rail Master Plan for Europe finally unveiled today! €500 billion project; one ticketing app, one Railway Area

@sentdefender There are options within German social law to allow this. If your company is going through bankruptcy, you can ask Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs to get your non paid salary of up to the last three months paid by the government. This is basically that.

The German Finance Ministry has announced that it plans to pay some 11,000 local employees with the U.S. Department of Defense stationed at bases across Germany whose paychecks have been impacted by the ongoing government shutdown in Washington. The German Government anticipates being reimbursed for the payroll cost once payments are resumed by the United States, according to the Spokeswoman for the Foreign Ministry, adding, “Berlin's contribution is "a sign of solidarity with the U.S. Armed Forces stationed in Germany and their civilian employees.”

@RudolfGandalf @Madara__1907 Sind 4 Monate bei einer 5 Tage Woche. ;)

@Madara__1907 80 ist schon krass, das sind fast 3 Monate

digga ich hab im halbschlaf geschrieben 😭😭😭

@lewisknaggs42 Starship will not land Artemis astronauts on the Moon.

I'll be honest it's a little disappointing how only 2 people will ride Starship down to the Moon on Artemis 3. Like you could take so many more (I know 2 people will need to stay on Orion) in this massive vehicle. I really want to know about the experiments or what they plan to do on the next few missions because you have a massive payload capacity with Starship and a big capacity too with Blue Moon.

@DJSnM Why did they even redact his name? I mean, come on.😅

A mysterious expert in submersibles was interviewed by the Coast Guard during the Titan investigation. His name is redacted, but we barely get into the interview before it becomes obvious who it is.

@Iachmaljune Rede

wieso checkt eig jeder was zb halb 8 ist aber bei dreiviertel 8 knallen euch dann alle sicherungen durch seid ihr bisschen blöde

@mouseOnly @phonix_fawkes Was wir erwartet haben? Ich weiß nicht, eventuell eine KUGEL?

@phonix_fawkes Bin echt kein Lego Fanboy aber 9000+ Teile, 38 Minifigs, Star Wars Lizenz. Und die Szenen sehen tlw schon sehr nett aus. Was haben wir erwartet? 500$?

Das wird das erste "Herr der Steine" Video mit Altersbegrenzung

@Vawlkus @DrChrisCombs The biggest customer is the US government and SpaceX won the lunar lander contract from NASA to fund its Starship development. So what are you talking about?

@DrChrisCombs Especially since SpaceX is self funded, not government funded.

With all due respect Ben please stop

@DJSnM As we can hear and see the drone, energy leaves the system, so: not a closed system. Also gyroscopic effects from the rotor, pressure waves, vibrations, etc. will influence the measurement (because it is not a closed system). Tl;dr: Idk, too many variables for me. 🫣

Physics riddle: You have a sealed glass box with a drone inside, you can weigh the box. You watch as the drone takes off and hovers inside the box, with it motors audibly buzzing, its position lights shining. As it hovers does your measurement of the box get:

They built the international space station you dumbass.

@anliakho @BayouBikeyBoi Make them run on steel wheels on steel roads so friction is minimal.

AND we make those Ubers attach to each other and go really fast ... like 200-300 mph... and there would be nice and large areas in city center where people could gather to catch such an Uber and maybe have a snack... we will continue to call them cars but the whole contraption will be called something new and fun... Train, maybe ;) /S

What if we made a special road just for Ubers, and those Ubers seated 1,000 people so each person paid less for a ticket, and we ran those Ubers at predictable times of the day so one could depend on there always being a ride available
