yes. You do.
That is why you have sensors on the engines to make sure that WE shut them down before a RUD.
As such, the chances of being forced to shut down 1 is higher, but, with the massive number of sensors, it is very small chance of not making it to orbit.
I should mode you up, but am going to reply to others, so no sense.
I had not thought about it until you mention it, but that is 1 hell of a good question/idea. I suspect that they never thought to do that. Yet, it makes great sense, other than being out of balance. Still being out of balance, simply means more work for fins and RTS.
No. They had been. The model 3 is going to leave the leaf in the dust this year. Yes, Tesla is behind with their predictions. However, they are now doing about 1000 cars / week. With more equipment on the way, they are supposed to hit 5000 cars / week before end of June. The leaf does not come close to that level.
His personal tesla was launched into space, because SPACEX had to launch some weight. This was cooler than simply putting in lead.
Solar CIty was doing fine, except towards the end, a number of companies were targeting SC. And now, SC, who has 1/3 of the installation, will be back to do so.
Huh. Tesla sold a product at a profit that has now saved Aus. state gov millions of $. As such, nearly all of the Aussie states want to work with Tesla so that all make money. And yes, Tesla made money on that contract.
Tesla has not a single penny from the feds.
The only money that they have had is from states fighting to have them manufacture there: CA, NV, and NY. And both CA and NV have actually made back the money that they invested into Tesla. NY still has not, but, Tesla is just scaling up that plant.
Uh, Tesla outsells all EVs and Hybrids, except for Hybrids in China. Assuming that Tesla will hit 5000 cars / week with M3 by june, then they will be #1 in the world of all EVs/hHybrids.
Actually, none of Tesla competitors are building EVs worth a plug nickel.
Sure, they are building and PUSHING Hybrids, but that is because it is far more profitable to builders AND dealers.
As such, they will continue to push such crap until Tesla really cuts into their sales.
Right now, Telsa has not cut into anything except for luxury sedans above $40K. The MX is cutting into luxury X-overs, but, not as large as MS/M3 have cut into sedans.
And it remains to be seen if the competitors CAN AND WILL build EVs to compete against Tesla.
My feeling is that they will continue to fight it, until MY hits the market and then they will have no choice.
Oh thank god that you are so bright.
Since you are, I hope that you have put EVERYTHING that you have and shorted Tesla.
I am sure that you will get what you should if you will just dump everything that you own and short Tesla.
Go ahead. Trust in yourself.
the majority of Tesla owners are not rich and are not driving a sports car (the roadster is the only sports car by tesla).
The feds have never subsidized Tesla other than a LOW-INTEREST LOAN, which was paid off ahead of time . BTW, that contrast to GM, Chrsyler and YES, FORD, who have taken massive subsidies AND/OR no-interest loans. In fact, Ford will not pay of their no-interest loan until 2022.
OTOH, the states HAVE done subsidies to GET TESLA THERE. Basically, California, Nevada, and New York have all put forward various subsidies knowing that the company(ies) would pay more out in side businesses, etc than the small amount they invested. Even now, Nevada and CA have both said that they brought back more than they put in; IOW, it paid off quicker than they expected.
So, if you are going to bitch about Tesla, Space, or Musk, please go for it. Just be accurate rather than lie about it.
uh no.
So far, Musk, nor any of the top tesla ppl, have said that they will do a Chinese line for MY. They have said that they will move some work in there, but they have been VERY CAREFUL on how it is phrased.
And it would be foolish and idiotic of them to put ANYTHING in China. Far better to go with Australia and EUrope first and cater to 5/6 of the planet, while ignoring 1/6 whose only interest is in destroying manufacturing in the west.
The fact is, that Tesla lost LESS than what the markets had been expecting for some time.
And as has been pointed out, that once they are somewhere between 4000 to 5000 cars per week, they will be in the GAAP black.
Some time ago, I found that Samsung had stopped updating software on my blueray player( which killed new blueray ), so I started playing with the TV. Sure enough it was obvious that our TV has holes in it.
I never tested Roku, but assumed that staying up was going to be hard because they have lots of capabilities, i.e. lots and lots of code. The only ones I trust are those backed by large software companies, which is apple tv, Android TV, and Chromecast. Out of these, only Chromecast is a minimalist approach, a kind of x-terminal, which should mean small code, small numbers of holes, and easy to back.
As such our next tv is going to be a Vizio E-series. No tuner. Solely based on Chromecast. The only thing wrong with them is complexity of hook-ups. If they were smart, they would skip it all, and just go with 5-7 HDMI and Ethernet. U need rgb/audio hookup? Get a converter. Need a tuner? Get one that has HDMI OR better yet, hd home run combined with Plex.
Chromecast too complex? Fine plug-in a Roku stick. Basically, we need a thin tv and ability to add to it. I would even suggest that 1 of HDMI be an audio output.
destination is everything. For sending man beyond LEO, it will take FH or better. And even then, FH can ONLY orbit around the moon. It is not capable of dealing with landings.
Personally, I was pissed that he killed red dragon and now manned FH. BUT, if he really can get BFR first stage done in another 1-1.5 years, AND have it man rated rather quickly, then things are not bad. BUT that second stage will actually take a lot of work. 3 different types. 1 for ppl; 1 for cargo; 1 for tanker. I would guess that cargo makes the most sense to do first and then send that to the moon for at least several trips.
nah. For many of us, we would not want to see something archaic and slow. Though I have to admit that the Tesla roadster is faster than most of the vettes, current vettes beat that roadster. After all, it was really a very poorly electrified Lotus Elise.
The plans Changed. Musk said on the media interview that they were NOT going to man rate FH because BFR will be ready much sooner than they thought and it will handle the moon. It sounds like end of 2019.
pretty much, except that you missed an important part. IF SX uses just mars for BFR, then it will be too expensive. As such, it will be used for everything including the moon. While Musk says that BFR will go to mars by 2022, what he is not saying is that they expect to launch next year or sometime in early 2020. And it will be used for LEO, GEO AND LUNAR missions.
First off, there is no obvious reasons to NOT man-rate FH, other than BFR coming up quickly. FH is as safe as F9.
Secondly, according to musk, FH will NOT be man-rated because the BFR's development is moving much faster than anticipated. Basically, the raptors are close to ready. Likewise, the tanks are tested. As such, they should be capable of putting together stage 1 within 1-1.5 years.
And assuming that FH gets man-rated, that changes nothing. America has lost our space access 2x for years. The GOP wanted all the money to go to ULA for doing manned launches, but NASA wanted MULTIPLE launchers so that they will NEVER lose space access again. As such, that is why they defied the GOP and gave TWO manned launchers and then gave a 3rd cargo launcher to SNC so that they could develop it into a manned launcher. But for this to work, we need 2+ systems that are distinctly different. Hence ULA or BO will ALWAYS have the ability to launch humans along with SX.
Uh, you do realize that F9 can lift more than Ariane 5. Yes?
And it costs $60M for an expendable 23 tonnes to LEO, while Ariane 5 costs $200 million for 21 tonnes.
FH, is simply icing on this all.
It costs $65 M for sending 45 tonnes to LEO, or $100M for 63 tonnes.
Seriously, we have tons of old oil platforms out there. Once done with oil, turn them into wind turbines. Or even put one up while drilling so it provides electricity for drilling/pumping.
Slashdot Mirror
No, it is like 1980s, and all of 2000, until O put a stop to it ( and then allowed it again in his last year; he turned GOP for his last year).
mainframes went down a lot more than ppl realized. And with AWS, it continues working just fine, even when you lose a VM.
yes. You do.
That is why you have sensors on the engines to make sure that WE shut them down before a RUD.
As such, the chances of being forced to shut down 1 is higher, but, with the massive number of sensors, it is very small chance of not making it to orbit.

Here is the main one.
Here is BI
Here is CBS
Here is Market Watch.
Here is WSJ
In fact, other than Faux News, BreitBart, and Daily Stormer, they all say the same thing. That yes, Tesla had losses but not as much as forecast some time ago.
His personal tesla was launched into space, because SPACEX had to launch some weight. This was cooler than simply putting in lead.
Solar CIty was doing fine, except towards the end, a number of companies were targeting SC. And now, SC, who has 1/3 of the installation, will be back to do so.

And not key revocation, but no more updates. Can not play any BR from Amazon on the Samsung, only the older Sony will play them.

What you just described about housing, America does.
