A depiction of what V3 Starship will look like (image from Elon himself). The booster will have an integral hot staging section, that doesn't get jettisoned during re-entry and landing. 3 grid fins, with the 3rd fin on the windward side. The gridfin actuator compartments will be inside the fuel tank, placing the fins further away from the hot staging ring.

And Raptor 3 engines that use their own regenerative cooling for re-entry heat shielding.

@InvictusManeo You can write a law, but when gigabytes can be downloaded in minutes... how do you enforce it?

I can fit a library of the greatest, most effective anti-Christian heresy on a 15 year old thumb drive that was cheap even then.

Or a vast collection of more visual subversion on a modern thumb drive.

The barn is empty, goodbye horses.
When I say 'porn production' I mean with actors.

That's a bottleneck that can be controlled. CG? Nothing less than a ban on general purpose computing machines can choke that supply.
All people who are non-NPCs have a religion/philosophy to ground their worldview.

NPCs don't have any ideology, it's pure biological instincts with no self-awareness for them.

@StarProphet I've seen the damage DEI has done at Raytheon firsthand and Covid forced a lot of the competent old guard out. The MIC isn't run by the same people that made the SR-71 or the F-15 anymore. Russia and China are set to pass us by leaps and bounds with the combo of uncensored AI and meritocracy in their institutions.

The kikes' only shot was to infiltrate Russia but that door's been closed since Russia's SMO kicked off. The Chinese are extremely resistant to kike subversion.

@judgedread I recently found out a guy I see often that looks a bit hobo-ish and drives a 20 yr old car is worth ~100MM.
@AlpineEnjoyer You win this round. I think my favorite beach bum is in the $20 million range.

Stoke Aerospace Nova rocket:

Stoke Aerospace's regeneratively cooled heat shield for its reusable upper stage.
Both of Nova's stages are fully reusable. Nova is a fully reusable rocket with a payload capacity of 3 metric tons to LEO.

I was digging around to find when the hipster geek culture turned against free expression and it really was in 2015 with the rise of Trump. Or more precisely the control ships that run hipsterism flipped and their robotic swarm did a 180 at their command.
Leftists assumed the rising internet was responsible for 'progress' in destroying religion and increasing faggot acceptance when it was the legacy media's last gasp that gave them that final tease of victory.
I wager that by December 2015 the real powers knew with absolute certainty that, barring his arrest or termination, Trump would be the GOP nominee and that he had a good chance of beating their chosen champion, Hillary. Thus their rapid flip on internet freedom.
