  • The last thing NASA wants to do is to loose astronauts during a mission. This would just be compounded by the fact it is an election year.

    If returning with a proven Dragon capsule is even a few percentage points safer than returning with Starliner that has thruster issues, they are going to do it.

    Boeing royally screwed up the entire Dreamliner program as well as Artemis production. With Sierra’s Dreamchaser potentially coming online as third alternative for manned space flight. I doubt NASA has fewer issues with letting Boeing go at this point.


  • His campaign was primarily funded by big money Trump supporters to do just what Jill Steins run in 2016 did to Hillary. He was supposed to peel off dissatisfied left wing or Democrat supporters who would never vote Republican. It only takes a few percentage points to swing the election in a few crucial states to win.

    In the end his stances on vaccines, conspiracy theories and general crazy antics ended up peeling off more Trump supporters. He may have been left leaning in the past but don’t imagine for a second he didn’t sell out to the Right wing.

    If you want anymore proof just look at the timing of his announcement. He announced he was pulling out of the race at the tail end of the Democratic convention. By doing this is diverting news media attention away from Harris’s acceptance of the nomination.

    Not that Democrats do similar things. Biden announced he was dropping out at the tail end of the Republican convention and completely stole any press coverage from Trump and moved the narrative to Harris.

    It’s just politics in a two party winner take all system.


  • I’ve replaced all of my Reddit comments for the past year with AI generated nonsense. It seems to have stuck. I plan on going through all of my past comments but will spread it out over time so that it’s harder to restore.

    IMO the key is making a post that writes gibberish but that is good enough to suck a user in to read it for a few seconds before they realize it is BS. That kills the user experience and poisons the site.
