Didn't help that Elon announced the Robotaxi just before. That thing sucked away all his headlines, and none of them were positive about that stupid thing.
SpaceX seems to be the Musk company that's most able to manage its idiot CEO, but they still can't rid themselves completely of his antics.
This is because Gwynne runs the show. Not Elon
On right wing social media, there was tons of posts about this but nothing about the robo taxis.
It’s kind of like know your audience. Right wing people would love to praise Musk, left wing people don’t (for good reason imo).
I’m actually proud of lemmy cause I saw multiple posts for the rocket (as in, it seems to try to cover everything) and many people in the comment pointed out that a lot of great engineers worked on this and this is a human achievement.
