@davidgerard pretty soon an announcement, "It's pronounced 'spay-kecks' now"

@davidgerard

On hand coded software.

@davidgerard

@davidgerard It's now officially a full time money laundering operation to hide the losses for Musk's other failing companies.

@davidgerard "X" is like a giant spotlight that just scans for the next scam to lure in more investors.

@davidgerard i wasn't paying attention, did reflect orbital start trading in public yet, surely SpaceX pivoting to Floor will boost their future profits

@davidgerard cool. If this means less of their goddamn satellites, this amateur astronomer is thrilled

@davidgerard so i guess that gen 2 starlink kit ive put on ebay probably wont sell huh
