Investors should sell everything Musk related NOW!
Oh come on... Sell everything Musk related now? How wrong you are..
You should have already divested yourself of anything Musk about a year ago...
Now... I got to go put some limit orders in to catch so cheap stocks that you folks are dumping.... What's that saying? Buy on bad news?
My guess is that because the adults in the room are actually in control enough to start managing these companies expenses, it might be a situation where these companies will start turning a profit soon. Layoffs can be a good sign, that management is actually starting to pay attention to costs.... Of course, it is also a possible sign of impending death... But I just don't see that happening yet.
I sure hope you are joking because history says exactly the opposite is true. Anybody paying attention to our Civil war, WW1 and WW2 firmly realizes that the USA has done truly great things.
If you are serious, then one thing we've not apparently accomplished is providing our children an elementary education in history.
But I don't think that's what this is about. Throwing in a couple of capacitors into a power supply isn't really an intellectual property problem. Most competent technicians should be able to diagnose and repair this kind of thing easily.
What the issue really is about is the massive amounts of digital content contained within these things. Firmware and alignment data that is protected in ways that makes it necessary for the consumer to have access to specialized tools or information to actually perform repairs. Information and tools that would risk intellectual property disclosure.
They are not lying about it or destroying evidence.... Hmmm...
So which law are you talking about here? The only issue there could possibly be based on this rumor is conducting official business over private E-mail channels which are not being archived. This can be remedied by doing two things... 1. Using official channels going forward and 2. submitting any and all E-mail sent outside of official channels to be archived as required. I'm guessing this was done, but hey, this is all rumor anyway.
So far, we've not had any destruction of evidence, denials (public or otherwise) that it ever took place and nobody is out there claiming classified information was being sent. All we have is false equivalency being drawn to what Clinton die with her private E-mail server as Secretary of State.
Not even close to the same level of corruption here.. On one hand, you have somebody doing 5mph over on a road where the speed limit just dropped 10mph and the other you have somebody who was racing drunk, crashed their car, fled the scene after torching their car then makes adamant denials that it wasn't their car, and when that proves false, claims they were not speeding and when the skid marks prove that untrue, claims they didn't actually wreck the car and when called on that untruth now claims they were not driving, but riding in the back seat and don't recall who was driving.
Again... So, you have proof that the Trumps use private E-mail services, not government ones to communicate government business? No, not really. Just rumor.
Do you also know that they are continuing to do this? Again, only in your made up theory based on your rumor is this happening.
Finally, is ANYBODY claiming that all those E-mails are really just personal, or that they use personal addresses for convenience and that nothing they send is classified and oh by the way, I lost all the copies of them I had? Is anybody lying about these things and do you have proof? Nope..
Not the same, not even close.... So nice try at spinning Hillary out of this.
Some laws require harm to be done, some do not. To get charged with murder, somebody had to die. However, Attempted Murder only requires an attempt to kill somebody.
If you read my post in context, I am clearly saying that "no harm done" is not a valid defense for breaking a law where the letter of the law doesn't require harm. My point is that one must look at the actual laws to decide if they got broken, not to some notion of "harm done" like the original poster claimed.
No harm was done. There's just a lot of speculation and all these "what could have happened." fantasies....
With that as a legal standard, I guess a LOT of stuff just becomes fine and dandy...
If I want to run that red light or slide though the 4 way stop It's OK.. Just have to make sure "no harm done" so as long as I don't cause a wreck, no ticket can be issue or fines assessed.
If I want to drive 50MPH though the school zone near my house with kids present in the cross walks, fine! Just don't hit a kid or do any harm and you get off Scott free..
If I want to own a Title 2 regulated firearm, large capacity magazines and a couple of live grenades, forget he law about background checks and tax stamps, as long as nobody gets hurt, no harm is done, I'm not going to be charged for violating any gun or explosives laws.
Are you starting to get the picture here? "No harm done" is not a good legal standard... I'm thinking you need to rethink this. Maybe a "letter of the law" standard might be better?
And... Have been told in no-uncertain terms that it will not be tolerated any more and have stopped doing this. Not to mention that nobody is now claiming they lost these E-mails or that the were not work related, OR contained classified information...
SO... Not the same thing here..
Just incase you don't remember, Hillary reprimanded one of her ambassadors for this very thing near the start of her stint as Secretary of State... Signed the memo and all...
Or, you are spitting into the wind yourself and get what you deserve when it lands back on you?
Nobody knows, but I'm hearing a LOT of theories that Muller is now looking into malfeasance by the other side. It explains why we've gone from daily wall to wall "The Russians did it! Impeachment is coming!" coverage to radio silence after 9 months. Why did they suddenly get off this hobby horse? Perhaps we are all tired of this and the news media finally realized they were beating a dead horse? OR Perhaps they realized they might be beating the wrong one?
Just a theory, one that isn't likely to be decided one way or the other for 6 to 9 months.
We cannot launch any large modules right now, only the Russians can. We also cannot launch personnel, only Russia can. It's only been recently that we've been able to get supplies delivered.
I fully understand that this is hopefully going to change soon, but as of right now, we are totally dependent on the Russians to get people or large parts to the ISS.
Actually, they will just deorbit it piece by piece... The Russians, who have the technical means of launching replacement parts, but cannot afford to and the USA which has the money but not the technical means must both agree to keep this running, or it comes down in a blaze of glory.
Neither country can maintain this station alone, at least right now. Together, the plan is to keep things going by slowly replacing pieces and parts with new, one module at a time and deorbiting the junk. If they both don't agree, then the US shuts down it's technology and the Russians stop supplying the station and it's all over...
I know right.... Everybody needs to remember McCain has brain cancer and according to some news reports is unlikely to survive long enough to actually vote for this bill. He won't be re-elected so he doesn't care what the voters want anymore, he's out doing something other than representing his state anymore.
It's sad, but I do think he's searching for a legacy, which is why the dramatic "show vote" on healthcare and his open defiance of the current republican president. It's about getting attention....
Remember, always remember that HR is NOT there to protect employees. HR where you work is NOT your friend, even if they say they are. They are not looking out for your interests, DON'T go to them unless you cannot help it.
The primary purpose of an HR person is to keep the company from being successfully sued. Secondary to that is to keep the company from being sued. After that comes keeping employees safe and happy..
If some HR person actually told a handicapped person this, they failed in their primary and secondary tasks and need to be shown the door, but somehow, I doubt that there is any independent evidence that this was said. I've not had too much experience with HR folks for obvious reasons, but I've never met one this stupid.
Wow, it will go 62 miles on a charge and take a couple of hours to charge (presumably).
Yea, this is a game changer... Now you will need to keep all delivery routes under 60 miles, limit them to 2 per 8 hour day per truck, you will need to plan for extended recharging times when you are done (or simply buy multiple trucks for each driver) AND you will need to install and power a fleet of fast chargers at each loading dock you use. This is going to cost a lot of profit...
I could be wrong but I just don't see this working out all that well over fossil fueled options for cost efficiency. Of course there is the value of the PR campaign "Look we are GREEN!" to consider, but I don't think stockholders will be happy.
Moon dust is so tiny and sharp that the astronauts who last visited almost died from having their suits compromised. I don't know if that's where you want to build a colony.
STOP!... Don't confuse me with facts....
The Lunar surface is a horrible place to set up housekeeping, no matter how you slice it or where you go. Underground is a bit more attractive, but still space is a cruel reality for the living, where there are more ways to die than you can imagine.
However, the idea is that if we had enough raw materials on the moon, we could use them to build and fuel space craft and forego having to claw all this stuff off the ground into orbit, which is the most expensive 100 mile trip for this stuff.
I think we can definitely confirm that any water will be INSIDE the rocks and will require that we mechanically remove it by crushing OR it will have to be totally shaded, even from indirect light. Water would sublime into vapor if exposed to the vacuum of space with even a small amount of light from the sun.
So basically, man will have to dig up and crush fairly large quantities of the moon's crust to get to the water therein. Where this is better than having to bring along large quantities of H2O, saving space and weight for equipment and food, the question really becomes is it worth it? Until we find water ore and prove the mining methods, I'm thinking this is a great idea but I'm not going to bet my life that it's going to work.

Just checking in. Is America great again, yet?
It never was

Now we know why DPRK needed the internet connection though Russia for those 20 IP addresses they have..

No payload in orbit yet?
No paying customers yet, so no payload to send anywhere....
Wow, it will go 62 miles on a charge and take a couple of hours to charge (presumably).

Have they uncovered the monolith yet?
Yes, of course.. Wasn't that 16 years ago now?
No, no.. It will be made in China...
Good point...

Exactly.... This is really stupid in that it only helps you catch the stupid ones....
Anybody who thinks about this, won't have an issue communicating securely regardless of if the encryption backdoor.
Shocking!
At least when the wind blows...
