I plan on winning the lottery. Any day now...

Wow I can’t believe Epstein killed himself before realizing it was all a hoax

NEW - Ghislaine Maxwell is willing to speak in front of U.S. Congress about The Epstein Files — Daily Mail

[Chief Nerd @TheChiefNerd]

President Trump is getting roasted in the comments on his Epstein post on Truth Social, which is VERY unusual.

This is not going away…

If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day.

Our country needs an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty so that the people actually have a VOICE.

@elonmusk Can you fix the insane electricity public benefits surcharge in Connecticut??

[Mr. Observation @realobseever]

Connecticut congrats you're the worst.

@ChrisMurphyCT @EversourceCT this is why nobody likes it here.

1 month of #electricity and I'm paying wild service and delivery charges?

Smh

Homebuyer demand has plummeted to the lowest level in 30 years.

With mortgage applications to purchase down 63% from the pandemic peak.

The last time we saw demand this low, it was 1995.

Since your handle is “Whole Mars”, perhaps this lengthy reply is apropos:

Getting the cost per ton to the surface of Mars low enough that humanity has the resources to make life multiplanetary requires a roughly 1000X improvement in rocket & spacecraft technology.

Recent US Mars missions have had a cost per ton of useful load to the surface of Mars of about $1B. Moreover, it has become more, not less, expensive over time!

To build a city on Mars that can grow by itself likely requires at least a million tons of equipment, which would therefore require >$1000 trillion, an obviously impossible number, given that US GDP is only $29T.

However, if rocket technology can be improved by 1000X, then the cost of becoming sustainably multiplanetary would drop to ~$1T, which could be spread out over 40 or more years, so <$25B/year.

At that cost, it becomes possible to make life multiplanetary, ensuring the long-term survival of life as we know it, without materially affecting people’s standard of living on Earth.

Starship is designed to achieve a >1000X improvement over existing systems and, especially after yesterday’s booster catch and precise ocean landing of the ship, I am now convinced that it can work.

Big step towards making life multiplanetary was made today

Inventory in Florida is now officially at its highest level in at least 7 years.

141,000 active listings in July 2024.

Up 70% from last year. And 276% from pandemic low.

These type of inventory gains are huge and suggest big downward price pressure in H2 2024. Be careful if you're buying in Florida.
