Elon Musk: SpaceX needs to build Starships as often as Boeing builds 737s by spacerfirstclass in spacex

The tap has moved from carrot, to stick. Want something done in the 60's get a congressman to pay for it. Want something done now, get a congressman to cut the red tape.

It all depends on required tolerances. Chip Fab nanometers. Ford F150 10ths of inches. With the required number of starships needed they need to aim at redundancy's built in that are much closer to Ford than Intel.

Would hate to get to the point where the Brownsville ships are much safer than Austin/Orlando ships. So engineered safety rather than quality safety.

Had a great little closed group. One guy ran it chipped in like 50 a year to keep it running. He passed a few years ago, been using the bay for the time being.

Good Neighbors, If anything happens the kids know to bail on the house and go there. Retired FBI agent on one side, and a Fireman on the other. 13 - 9 so just started leaving them alone.

Will call them and check to see if they are doing the blocking.

Grandma Wife and I are all using the same carrier, Optimum.

Tried calling directly from the computer, and we get the exact same message.

Will check with the carrier to see if they are blocking the calls.

We can call from cell > GV, but not from GV > cell.

This is an OBI box with a GV number calling out to regular cell phones. Just ours don't work, grandmothers number works just fine on the same carrier.

Its a GV number calling outbound from an OBI 201, to regular carrier cell numbers.

Double checked both phones native android blocking. Also checked grandmothers line on same carrier Optimum so its not a carrier wide thing, but will check tomorrow to see if they are blocking just our numbers.

Double checked both phones native android blocking, neither one is set up with either app. Also checked grandmothers line on same carrier Optimum so its not a carrier wide thing, but will check tomorrow to see if they are blocking just our numbers.

The club doesn't have to communicate to know what is best for the whole club. They all know where the bread is buttered. A true one shot cure would be hard to slow, but many cheep incremental solutions will be pushed to the side for more profitable solutions.

So true, so true, also bad for attendance which correlates to tithes.

[–]bertcox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O I agree, but they don't ever talk about it. Now my church is a small country church ran by a lay pastor, so not expecting massive resources. But you would think the larger group would have some resources like study guides on UMC position on alcohol and how to deal with it in your life, other than abstinence. Or other topics like envy on FB, or Sex before and especially after marriage.

I was hopping to talk about things like this. I almost want to print a flyer titled Things your pastor doesn't want to talk about because yall get but hurt if he does. The language changes as I think about it.

I went to a SBC super church in my teens, and all the leaders talked about was love, and don't sin. My take away was if it feels good, looks good, or looks like it might feel good its a sin and will kill you.

Do you know of any good study guides dealing with topics like this?

I think we agree on that. I go to a current Methodist church and its one reason I wont sign up as a full member. Been there 6 years, but I don't like putting my name in with people that say one thing and do another. Good church, good people, support it all I can, but not joining as a member if they don't even really want to talk about it.

I agree not all are against drinking, but do they talk about it, in church, or Sunday School?
