Ars Technica are so mad at Elon that they're pretending that the stranded astronauts aren't stranded

For a bargain price!

What happened to it?

!friendsofsphereserf I will now attempt to communicate with Spherechief in his people's language, though I may be a little rusty

ahem

T'ááłá'í íiyisí yáhoot'ééł.

Isn't there more than one potty though?

Not if you spend the whole day squatting over a bag

More cost effective to never bring them home ever tbh

Your permanent duty station is now LEO

they already have peepeees though

We don't want to contaminate the future Venusian colonies

more cost efficient would be to launch without looking and let them drift into space for however long it might be

Sending a foid to space is where the illusion of we can all do it finally breaks apart. You have to sacrifice everything to be an astronaut. There is no sense of privacy or personalized dignity. Even an overcrowded frathouse party has more freedom because you at least wouldn't be stuck with the smell of week old farts in a locked capsule while being told that your mission is the most important thing this century while floating cat piss in a jar to study the effects of low gravity on domestic animal feces to determine whether having pets in space can ever be a viable option.

One must remember that the top 1% of moids are waaaaayyyyy above the top 1% of foids on the planet, and that even among the top 1% of moids 99% would never be capable of making it in that space tin can for more than a month.

Now add foids to this mix not because the report suggested that they were actually the best of the best, but because they were the best of the available foids available, and you end up with a coin flip every time you send out a foid into space between her being alright for a foid or her causing irreversible damage to multi-billion dollar equipment due to hysteria caused by the extreme disconnect between the life she has lived and the tin can she is stuck in now.

You need to accept we're living in a post-dictionary world.

Sure, most words probably have a definition written down somewhere (even the long ones) but what really matters is my gut feeling about what the words might mean.

since the arrival of SpaceX's Crew-9 mission with two empty seats in late September, Wilmore and Williams have had a safe ride home. The Dragon vehicle is presently docked to the space station

I have my truck parked outside.

I am stranded because my boss asked me to stay at the project later

nooo the heckin astronauts are in... le space

They have a return ship (SpaceX Crew Dragon) docked to the station since September. NASA just decided to let them cover the next crew's shift instead of paying 1 billion dollars extra to get them back early.

Those poor astronauts had no idea something could go wrong.

They're federal employees and this is consistent with the administration's guidance for the federal workforce

What do you notice?

Did you notice anything now

Actually curious but how come they never actually made some automatic emergency escape pods in the past 20 years?

I imagine that whatever trajectories and mathematics that need to be calculated can be done by normal computers, right?

Do they just want to avoid having a company outsource it all to sexy Indian dudes or something?

NoOooooo NASA said "rot in space BIPOC fgts I love DEI time for an LGBTQAGI orgy in the bathroom" and then cut communication

It's like they don't know google exists

I wonder if they are setting any records for being on the space station the longest...but let's not say they are stranded

That's because journ*lists only write dumb shit that you'll click on so they can make money with Taboola ads

Nobody cares after they got a replacement shuttle bolted to the ISS

Obviously the journos were wrong then but they're right now and you're a chud if you think otherwise

>were stranded

If only someone had launched a rescue capsule 4 months ago
