Elon: "The AI satellite is much simpler than a Starlink satellite. The AI satellite is essentially a lot of solar cells, you still need some laser links, but you don't have all of the super complex antennas that you have on a Starlink satellite. The easier one to design for is the AI satellite. It's bigger. A lot of this is technology we've already made with the Starlink V3 satellites."
@Brainmetry@SpaceX@elonmusk Leverage is a powerful tool. Most of Elon's companies are leveraged by one another.
Strange how more companies don't or can't do that. Requires a special type of management freedom, and freedom always wins.
Updated URDF export in Onshape now includes frames, TCPs, and cleaner joint definitions. Mesh exports support adjustable tessellation for STL and GLTF. Less cleanup. More building.
@AndyZeGerman Great attitude. 👍
On the flip side imagine living life being constantly offended and responding to the preferences of others. How stressful.
With you on this, specially VR. (Some have already made it work)
However, they also cannot ignore their core market, which does not have and will probably never have triple screen, VR, motion rigs. They are more interested in the culture, the sights, sounds, exploration of rich environments and stories, etc....
And their core market has already voted with their dollars to the tune of $350M + and rising.
From a business sense, if adding and supporting triple monitor support, VR in the future would do a 10% sales bump, then maybe it will be worth it for them. Long term support is most costly, but you are right, these are low hanging fruit for them, and if they don't do it, then they leave the door open for competition. Ex. PS5 GT7 in VR, BeamNG multiplayer... AC EVO etc...
