  • Ya, I was thinking about it after I wrote it and it doesn’t make any sense. The compressor is empty when you start so there’s no load, and it gradually increases. The regulator is never going to get dicked around with ever again, so what’s the point? Maybe to let moisture out? Metal shavings? Sounds like dumb instructions that everyone will ignore. Maybe it’s a way to void the warrenty? “Sorry to hear your brand new compressor shit the bed, did you remember to fuck around with the regulator on startup? No? Sorry, we can’t help you”










  • I get what you’re getting at, but I’d argue that we should look holistically at spacex. If their business model is launching a bazillion satellites and making a bazillion dollars we have to look at the entire launch complex as operating capital of starlink and spaceai. It all depends on starship launching a bazillion times a day so we should include development costs of starship as costs of starlink. The need for these businesses are necessary because the boom in private bookings of rocket launches that was anticipated with cheap launch services hasn’t materialized and so they have an airport and planes without passengers.

    I ain’t no rocket economist but it seems “all the money” that starlink makes arent enough.
