@orionlensguy@VickiCocks15@LabPadre booster couldnt make a boostback, so it probably splashed down somewhere wayyyy down the line deep in the Gulf of Mexico.
@CSI_Starbase do you think this "interesting" manoeuver is intentional or did they have a malfunction? I personally think that they haven't really calibrated their landing algorithm for the new ship... since all raptors and flaps appeared functional... what do you think?
@BobTheBuilderjs@kaleidosbob@kimmonismus Do you think this uses way too much compute? that might actually be quite the bottleneck yeah. but i suppose we just need to wait a bit until tech gets cheap enough to facilitate such recognition. but surveillance will surely happen with visible range cams, its easier
@BobTheBuilderjs@kaleidosbob@kimmonismus idk what is not scalable? i mean you have a pretty predictable location and its pretty easy to discern and track you. the only non-scalable thing here is how to create a universal profile that could be recognised by different setups and antennae
@space_jm_ I agree! I hate that so many people are so divided into two camps and you can't be genuinely concerned for wildlife and also love rockets, love tehnological progress and still have leftist (socialist even) values. i can already see people calling you anti-progress now lol
@BobTheBuilderjs@kaleidosbob@kimmonismus You walk into a supermarket with a high-powered router installed. you pay with card at checkout and walk out. Visa/Mastercard shares your name and the router creates a radio profile of you as you walk out. BAM. there just needs to be cross-model compatibility and its over.
@LouBond68762962@StarshipGazer A flight from Starbase to KSC would be a completely different thing from current flights. not even remotely orbital. Otherwise, i'm sure it will be ok to reenter over mainlandd eventually, just not in the timeframe they need this in.
@LouBond68762962@StarshipGazer probably it would require a bunch of reprogramming, so a launch would most probably be orbital. but several large cities are in the way if you wanna get to KSC from the west. probably wouldn't wanna reenter over whole continental US with a 200t lump of steel, would you?
“Vsak problem do svojega priznanja preide skozi tri stopnje: sprva je zasmehovan, potem se proti njemu borijo, končno pa velja za samoumevnega.”
Arthur Schopenhauer
Pravice delavcev so večen problem, ki se vrti v začaranem krogu, kjer končna samoumevnost razvrednoti bistvo, večen boj za bolj pravično družbo, pravice pa vrača v dobo zasmehovanja. Ne pozabimo!
Dragi sodelavci, čestitke ob prazniku pravičnosti in vrednote dela!
ŽIVEL 1. MAJ!
IT IS NOT AGE-VERIFICATION
IT IS MASS SURVEILLANCE
IT IS ABOUT TYING YOUR DIGITAL FOOTPRINT TO YOU
IT IS ABOUT CONTROL
IT IS NOT ABOUT PROTECTING CHILDREN
IT IS ABOUT DESTROYING YOUR FREEDOM
IT IS MORE THAN A PRIVACY CONCERN
@wordgrammer Instead of forbidding social media for kids we should forbid all short form video content for the whole population. Would fix the kids and adults too. Unfortunately this is a form of opium for the masses and we are more easily controllable like that...
Facial recognition isn’t the end point, it’s the infrastructure.
Let me explain.
Step 1: introduce the technology for a “reasonable” purpose
crime prevention
public safety
efficiency
Step 2: normalise it
“law abiding citizens have nothing to fear”
only used in limited cases, nothing to worry about
Step 3: expand its use
more locations
more databases
more integration with other systems
Step 4: connect it
ID systems
Digital banking Currency
Travel
online access
public services
Step 5: enforce through it
access granted or denied
movement tracked
behaviour monitored
By that point, it’s no longer optional, that’s how digital control systems are built through layers.
Once the infrastructure exists, it rarely stays limited.
What it’s used for today is what it makes possible tomorrow.
@DiverDa74038889@mcrs987 maybe they could put deployable "water sails" under the droneship which would effectively anchor it into the water and prevent any fast movements. wouldnt help much if they wanted to move it afterwards though lol
