It's almost 100% because "proper usage" includes periodic checks.

And Barron loses his birthright citizenship too right?

Like all the people on that signal group chat that work for the government?

That's kinda my point though. I could see them giving up on Taiwan at least temporarily if they're able to fill the power void left by the USA instead. China has been pushing to become a service economy instead of a manufacturing economy for a while now, but the rest of the world didn't trust them enough for it to work. This would change that equation.

I'm not really surprised. They're the only nation really equipped to step into the power vacuum America is leaving behind and I'm sure it isn't lost in Xi the kind of stability and influence that gave America over the years.

The only question (and frankly the one they're asking here) is will what's left of the free world accept them even though they're not really a free nation.

I mean it also plowed through a kid because it was foggy, then rainy. The wall was just one of the tests the tesla failed.

That's not even the issue with geostationary. The problem is latency to/from satellites in geostationary orbit.

All money comes from the govenment in the first place.

By your math they were down 80k before you gave them your money and cut their loss down to 40k. There's no guarantee that anyone is going to buy them, in fact this is an issue tesla already has. Fields of new cars rotting away because they're not selling.

I mean, you're really just putting value on your distaste of musk. For a 40-60k payoff you can do business with him.
