Absolutely.    Would you like other guys pointing out Hotez deficiencies?   It was actually more about Hotez but whatever? Why stick around? All the constructive back and forth

My buddy who owns a collision center was walking with me in the parking lot of the Y and saw one and stopped and asked what it was. I told him and he then walks to the back and said where is the bed? I told him and he laughed and said fuck that. This guy is Elon’s wheelhouse normally.

Not many Cybertrucks will be hitting the collision centers.  Gotta go through Tesla and pay the big bucks and cross your fingers that your insurance hasn’t banned CTs,

Any hillbilly alive in rural America in the 1790s who had a large family probably has hundreds of thousands of living descendants.  Hell, any Irishman/woman alive in the 1600s who popped out a bunch of kids probably has millions of descendants. That person doesn’t understand how genes are passed down.  Any of the major royal families in Europe living 500 years ago that survived into the 1700s probably have hundreds of millions of dependents if not more.

Found a video of a CT in an accident.   Spoilered for graphic savagery

For Tesla's futuristic new Cybertruck, a fourth recall | AP News

Quote

The company says in the documents that the front windshield wiper motor controller can stop working because it’s getting too much electrical current. A wiper that fails can cut visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. The Austin, Texas, company says it knows of no crashes or injuries caused by the problem.

Tesla will replace the wiper motor at no cost to owners, who will be notified by letter on Aug. 18.

In the other recall, a trim piece along the truck bed can come loose and fly off, creating a hazard for other motorists.

Tesla says in documents that the trim piece is installed with adhesive, and that may not have been done properly at the factory.

those guys putting that last line "may or may not disengage" sure seems like the basis of a lawsuit against someone.

what do you mean the accellerator may or may not disengage when the brake is depressed"?!

1) I wonder what IMC's Surly handle is?  Because the Elon knob-gobblers 'round these parts can't be any different.

2) What a stupid fucking thing to do.  Ever fired one of those?  It's not a "shoot from the hip" weapon.  It's stupid.  It defeats the point.  It's like dragging about taking a Ferrari through an offroad mudding course -- that's not what it's fucking for.  Mudding may be fun and cool, but not with a Ferrari.  Shooting from the hip can be fun and cool, but not with a Barrett.

The performative stupidity of these people, Jesus fucking Christ.

Now I'm starting to wonder if IMC is a real person as opposed to a very (as in witness protection program or CIA asset quality) elaborate Elon sock. Or a paid influencer.

I refuse to believe someone could be that pathetic and sycophantic.

Naw, IMC goes way back. He's been this big a loser since long before he'd ever even heard of Elon.

No....what's ultra-sad and pathetic is that as a society, we have elevated practitioners of such pathetic bullshit to GOD-LEVEL.  Elon and IMC are fucking "thought leaders" to tens of millions of people.

Pathetic and sad people have always existed (see, e.g., the existence of this website).  What has changed is that in recent years, we have decided that those sad and pathetic people are the best of humanity.

Scott Galloway: Elon Musk’s Twitter ‘Literally the Worst Performing Business in History’

Quote

Going to the other end, no company over $1 billion in revenue has ever lost 60% of its revenues in a 12 month period in a non-war period.

I don’ think that’s ever happened. Twitter is literally the worst-performing business in history since a change in ownership.

Quote

Scott Galloway and Kara Swisher discussed the historically bad performance of Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter, on a recent episode of their tech and business podcast, Pivot.

Swisher introduced the topic by noting that Musk “no longer wants advertisers to go fuck themselves.”

“We talking about Twitter? I’d love to talk about Twitter,” replied Galloway, a marketing professor and successful entrepreneur.

Swisher explained the Musk news, adding, “He told advertisers to go fuck themselves. And then he told Bob Iger to go fuck himself. But he’s done an about-face. He and CEO Linda Yaccarino are here in Cannes courting advertisers. He’s appearing at a WPP event this week. For those who don’t know. WPP is one of the largest ad agencies. X reportedly lost 52% of its U.S. advertising revenue in 2024.”

“Talk about the strategy because it’s a lot of small and medium businesses. And by that I mean, porn,” Swisher asked Galloway, referring to the companies engaging with X.

“Crypto and AI girlfriend,” joked Galloway, adding:

I don’t think there’s ever been in business. So let’s go to the other side. Nvidia at some point will own this entire city, much less this beach. But Nvidia is the most successful company in history, as registered by an increase in revenues over such a short time. No company has ever accomplished that. Going to the other end, no company over $1 billion in revenue has ever lost 60% of its revenues in a 12 month period in a non-war period.

I don’t think that’s ever happened. Twitter is literally the worst-performing business in history since a change in ownership.

Galloway went on to illustrate just why X is losing so much money in ad revenue, “And as we all sit here today, I’ll just put forward a brief quiz. Which of the following three activities are you most likely to be fired from your job in media? One: you start calling your assistant juggles. Two: you bring your mushroom chocolates to work and put them in the refrigerator with your name on it, saying do not touch property of you. Or three, you advertise on Twitter?”

“What is a bigger risk to your career? I didn’t know what was going to be next to Nazi porn. Right. That’s not going to be a good defense. Literally the fastest way to not get invited back to Cannes, because you get fired by your media company or brand for making what is on a risk-adjusted basis literally the worst decision in branding,” he concluded.

Swisher interjected, “Some people thought it was had a good ROI, some people didn’t, but it was never an effective business in general compared to the Facebooks of the world.”

“But it was a bidding platform. It did have a certain, there were certain types of advertisers that fit really well on Twitter. I like Twitter, I was pulling for Twitter. I thought they did a decent job. I mean, we were sort of all pulling for Twitter in the beginning. It’s an incredible product. And then this thing just went on, they thought, all go to subscription. Everyone loves me. We’re going to change the model. And it’s not. It’s an ad platform. Except now there’s a lot of incredibly toxic content that people don’t want to take the risk of,” Galloway replied.
