pogo_rabid 10/14/22 7:37:53 AM #1:	He's throwing a baby bitch fit after getting call out and is playing the "taking my toys home" card https://edition.cnn.com/2022/10/13/politics/elon-musk-spacex-starlink-ukraine/index.html We are not in a position to further donate terminals to Ukraine, or fund the existing terminals for an indefinite period of time, SpaceXs director of government sales wrote to the Pentagon in the September letter. Among the SpaceX documents sent to the Pentagon and seen by CNN is a previously unreported direct request made to Musk in July by the Ukrainian militarys commanding general, General Valerii Zaluzhniy, for almost 8,000 more Starlink terminals. In a separate cover letter to the Pentagon, an outside consultant working for SpaceX wrote, SpaceX faces terribly difficult decisions here. I do not think they have the financial ability to provide any additional terminals or service as requested by General Zaluzhniy. The documents, which have not been previously reported, provide a rare breakdown of SpaceXs own internal numbers on Starlink, detailing the costs and payments associated with the thousands of terminals in Ukraine. They also shed new light on behind-the-scenes negotiations that have provided millions of dollars in communications hardware and services to Ukraine at little cost to Kyiv. --- Ryzen 3800x, 6900XT, 32 gig, 970pro, Asus Strix x570-E FC: SW-8431-3263-1243 <cite>pogo_rabid posted [p:968705699] in Musk refus...
