You probably can’t easily at the front lines. But you probably could past a threshold?

That is what’s happening.

SpaceX knows which satellites were sold to the Ukrainian government though and could apply additional filtering. That’s the easiest first step.

To prevent Ukrainian dishes from falling into Russian hands you’d also need some sort of rolling authentication code so the dish becomes inoperable after a period of time.

Simply being in Russian territory doesn’t guarantee a Russian is using it as it could be Ukrainian special forces deep in enemy territory.

The Elon jet guy explained it once during the whole Elon confrontation and it was much more complicated than just that.

If it’s anything like the guy tracking Elon, or at least the same way, the info is “public” but it’s not as simple as hey this is her jet.

The info is heavily obfuscated and it took the guy having some deep understanding of how it all works to figure out how to properly determine how to track them.

But technically yes, it’s public.

Edit: it might be a close comparison to a bitcoin address. It’s public, and it can be worked out. But in this case she can’t just easily buy a 2nd jet. And if she does, they’ll figure it out again as info leaks about her travels.

If it goes that low before gen 3 is out, I hope I got cash available.

If it goes that low after gen 3 comes out and fails, not so much!

It was very obvious 2024 was not going to meet the 50% goal and they’ve been warning us for years about it.

50% with some years over and some years under based on when we do vehicle launches is what they’ve been saying for quite a long time now.

The only way 2024 was ever going to be above that trend line, or even in its vicinity is if the Gen 3 platform launched, and it’s been clear for over a year now this wasn’t happening in 2024.

Probably like mid 2022 this was the obvious outcome for 2024.

And yet everyone is acting like the sky is falling.

The sky is falling when gen 3 comes out and it doesn’t sell well at reasonable profit. If it sells with reasonable profit, everyone is going to be hospitalized with whiplash as they start spiking deliveries again and March their way to 7-10 million vehicles based off the platform (multiple vehicles in the platform)

But ya, 2024 is a dud year. It’s been a dud year vehicle wise for over a year already.

I feel like I’ve just been given an invaluable tip that I may have never ever received had I not taken part in this conversation about socks.

I’ll remember this should I ever go to NYC

What’s this thing called summer socks? I wear the same wool socks all year and it’s great! It’s either wool socks or sockless sandels.
