Wow gent

Your birthday song is about Pix

That's awesome

This dealt psychic damage

???

Pix is half Asian?

Who knew...

I have heard some genuinely concerning things about the ISS launch today, it'll probably get scrubbed This is Boeing and the US Government's attempt to prove they don't need SpaceX, and can do things the old way still

Launch is ~10:30 tonight if it goes

multiple Boeing engineers have advised against launch, and an official launch advisory is being ignored by NASA/govermnet

Boeing...

normally, I wouldn't think they'd scrub it, since space explosions are in vogue rn, ever since Musk made them funny again

I read about that earlier, it would be really funny if it exploded especially with how boeing is doing now

but this one is minority crewed

which I doubt Biden wants blowing up

I'll post the stream when they go live around 10

but again, I expect they'll scrub

and this will sit on the launch pad for 8+ months which will basically put it out of commission

I like all the fake space x channels

is it a weather issue or DEI poor maintenance?

not a weather issue, their I-launch window is clear

they are mating vertically for no reason, and have never tested that before

because they didn't want to delay launch

SpaceX is the only company who has ever done vertical mating

this is ULA, not SpaceX

It's made by washington apple scientist; we don't know how to build flying things, hence the planes with exploding windows. not apples.

that's the objection I heard 1st hand

2nd one, not sure

2 is normally a non-starter

but if Boeing misses this, I think the rocket is a write-off

and their stock price probably can't take that

so I think there's a chance it goes ahead, and they just roll the dice

my phone's blowing up with people giving minute-by-minute updates lol

no one can believe they got two objections from the control room, and didn't wave off there

If this explodes it basically cements the obvious and already known dominance of spacex in the space industry.

the worse part garbage, is this is the copycat rocket too

SpaceX launched this for NASA back in 2020

and then NASA gave their designs to Boeing for competitive purposes

Lol, that's great.

its diverse

I'm not saying I want it to fail, but it would be pretty funny to see Boeing stock plummet

Musk is dunking on them on Twitter

I forget the exact details

but yeah, this is many years late and out of date

so are u streaming it for us tonight

think of all the lawsuits for the people that would die in the explosion

it'll be on YouTube I assume, on some shitty Boeing channel

>6:30

I think might just be the hype video

prob

might be funny though

finding things of Boeings that haven't failed recently

assassinations are like 2/2 rn if those count

I can't believe it was discovered at the last minute that the entire crew was made of boeing whistleblowers

a tragic and unavoidable accident

at the cost of the entire company

pyrrhic victory

So you would advise investing in airbus?

who do you think this was

was this in this server?

Yes

Probably should have had leaver post the UserID for people who join, then I could check who 456226577798135808 was

Figured it out

it was the guy who helped run the urealms live wiki

are you sure

I could have swsore that was posted by that one guy

named alec or something?

That was Alec

yeah

RIP Alec

do you think he actually did it though

No one will know

but him
