red750 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Another Musk failure. A Spacex Starlink rocket launched Thursday lost contact and crashed into the sea just minutes into the flight. 2
old man emu Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Because the NBN and Telstra connectivity is so bad up my way, lots of people, especially out of town, have gone to Starlink. My sister joined up recently and is very pleased that now she can get on with her volunteer work much more efficiently. I'm working off a Telstra 4G dongle, which work well. My place must be in good line-of-sight to the transmitter. 1

Jerry_Atrick Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Very clever... from a Musk perspective, of course.. Do you work for DOGE? 😉 1
red750 Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Here's an interesting insight into Elon. https://www.wownews.info/news/elon-musks-father-reveals-financial-help-he-and-his-family-receive-from-the-tesla-billionaire/
Jerry_Atrick Posted March 8 Posted March 8 I would be wary of the above 2.. musks father is known to have had a mine, and invested in his companies. The other about Carlos Slim has legs but a story like that would make it into the FT, and I haven't seen it yet 1
Marty_d Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Hope it's true. His actions need consequences and hitting his hip pocket as much as possible will be what causes him pain. For his role in funding the orange clown, getting him elected then his treasonous activities since with that dog of a DOGE, he should end up penniless.
onetrack Posted March 8 Posted March 8 The minor news reports are saying the news about Carlos Slim cancelling the Starlink deal are in the Mexico Daily Post - but I can find nothing on the MDP site to back that up, so I'd have to reckon it was a fine piece of disinformation, and patently untrue. 1 1

First, did Musk insinuate that Carlos Slim had links to a crominal gang. Secondly, billionaires wil not upend their supply contacts on emotion - that is why they are billionaires - unless it was grossly offensive. Billionaires are also people of vast resources, and may use them to get personally even, in that situation. He would unlikely use Chinese providers, as they are distrusted with the whole comms thing. Secondly, if he can't get a better deal and save money, which his team will always be looking at anyway, he won't move. Why would he want to pay more, or have the upheaval, or lesser service for the same? I have met one billionaire not too long ago.. they are a very different breed to you and me. 1 1
old man emu Posted March 10 Posted March 10 There's nothing fishy about TESLA's sales success in Canada. 1
