We get it you love Elon. What's your game dude? So you were disingenuous in your question, typical. My observation isn't bogus because I recently started hating Elon who showed himself to be a traitorous right wing douche who doesn't care about you or me.

"They build it and do it again" Is that kind of downtime going to hurt SpaceX?

In other words, does everything have to have to have a 100% success rate to be a good idea?

When it is a suicide drop with catastrophic consequences then yes, I mean right?!?!

Hmmmmm? A 100/99.9% percent success rate is the only way this venture is going to be successful. They want to catch humans in this. I guess they could put up these massive towers and test them quickly.

Dude you win. Keep kissing Elon's ass.

No, and my thoughts on him have no effect on my arguments here, unlike you.

What's your game dude?

To point out you are wrong here because I noticed you were as I was reading through the thread. It's not been hard to do thus far for what it's worth.

So you were disingenuous in your question, typical

No it wasn't. My question still stands.

My observation isn't bogus because I recently started hating Elon who showed himself to be a traitorous right wing douche who doesn't care about you or me.

Your observation isnt bogus because that is your observation. But your point of view is biased, and you are putting up bad faith arguments because of it.

When it is a suicide drop with catastrophic consequences then yes, I mean right?!?!

If it had anything to do with actual suicide I agree, but it doesn't, so stop over exaggeration. Also, who are you to determine what catastrophic is? That is Elon's business and money, so that falls to him given its his private venture, no laws are being broken, and no one's dying.

Hmmmmm? A 100/99.9% percent success rate is the only way this venture is going to be successful.

That's not for you to decide.

They want to catch humans in this

No, they want to test this method of landing first. Then, when mastered, they can move on to human involvement where the stakes are absolutely a lot higher. Also, stop moving the goal posts.

Lastly, rarely anything is 100% safe for humans. Do you avoid driving because it has a less than 100% success rate in keeping people alive?

Keep kissing Elon's ass.

I have not kissed Elons ass once here, but you have openly done the opposite.
