A gofundme for an experimental drive to the tune of 10-50m, not happening senpai. If the test article works and you don't get whacked by JPL and co I would be pitching it to gravitational lensing and outer planet missions along with seeing if it's possible to get Elon to change his mission architecture since it enables a Mars cycler.

Congress asked for a new super heavy lift rocket. NASA wanted to build a Saturn VI. 3STO, kerolox-hydrolox-hydrolox, improved versions of the F-1 and J-2. Congress threw a fit because all their heckin contractorinos they'd spread out across 300+ districts during the shuttle program would have been out of jobs and put language in the bill requiring them to use shuttle parts. So here we are.

This is unironically the worst thread in /sfg/ history and I've read hundreds of them

His story doesn't make you forgive the negative influence you believe he had on this board? I just don't understand why so many people here seem to harbor resentment for a dead person when he was testing his own version of quantum suicide and doing a bunch of other wacky interesting shit. His life was a tragedy, ignored by the world, ignored by his fellow autists. We watched his decent into hell and the incredible psychosis of someone that could seem pretty lucid and reasonable at times.

It was a master class in mental illness and ends on a cliff hanger, not only if he is alive in our world, but if he is alive in others. Our own little mystery that may never be mentioned again outside of this thread.

50% = 0.5
100% = 1
200% = 2

Multiplied by 100% = X*1 = X
Stays the same

Increases by 100% = X+(X*1)= 2X
Doubles in size

This is elementary school math, get out of /sci$

I don't even fucking know what to say to that honestly.

Is this a glimpse of what a civilization looks like during their twilight years at the end of their life?

Because these "give up" machines are going to ruin Japan.

There is no winning. I either get cucked by chad or cucked by the unabomber.

I'm doing a new kind of math called HME. It's a secret math program that aliens have created to improve mathematical comprehension in us humans.

They can't directly give us technology due to their intergalactic laws and treaties.

They told me that if they gave us their tech without us having the ability to understand it first... We would end up like the niggers in Africa or the middle east, who are currently using the superior white mans AK47s and explosives to kill each other due to their inability to respect the technology.

Therefore, they have many of us learning their math so that it may become part of humanity as we slowly introduce it to the rest of the world.
