It's November and the Longhorns are #3 in the nation and tied at #1 in the SEC with aggy. We are 8 days away from the first game against aggy since Case derped down the field to setup Tucker for victory over aggy 13 years ago. Renewed rivalry game, SEC championship and playoffs are on the line.

Clearly, this board is for discussing whether Quinn is a pussy or not.

Sir, we also need to debate all aspects of the rankings in as many ways as human possible and debate the success or lack thereof by Deion. Plus there's the god damn tamale talk to deal with just ask @InkaUtexas.

So.. don't diminish the cloak room sports shit to just Ewers love/hate, please.

What happens when they put up large displays of Nazi and other white supremacist tweets alongside their ads in court? 

Not a lawyer, but fairly certain they were doing screencaps of the Nazi/racist/disinformation stuff being displayed with their ads when it was happening just in case Elmo threatened them/sued them (I believe he was threatening them when it was happening).

Seems like they could make a decent claim that their brands were being damaged by Elmo allowing that shit on there.

They should counter sue his ass for reputation damage.

I’m sure they didn’t have a clause in their contract that specifically spells out “don’t run our ads next to white supremacist and Nazi shit” but I’d have to think they have something in their contracts about not running their ads next to unsavory content.

Also, Leon is ensuring that these advertisers leave Twitter and don’t come back as long as he owns it. Maybe he wins and they fulfill their current contracts, but they ain’t renewing.

Also could be a sign that Twitter really needs their money.

I’d greatly appreciate never hearing again about Elon being on the spectrum. He is a complete embarrassment of a human being to the rest of us who are on it as well. This is not directed at you Brisket. We have people posting here about it who think they are experts on the subject that do not know and will never know what this is like because they are not on the autism spectrum. I can tell you that Elon makes a choice to be the narcissistic clown that he is. He is wholly unrelated to those of us just wanting to live a quiet life and do better for those in the world around us.

Well, Errol seems to be a liar, too.  Yes, her parents, more accurately father, conveniently named Haldeman, were not actual Nazi supporters or Nazis, but complete kooks, anti-semites and racists, and, to top it off a chiropractor.  Probably of the type that believed he could cure disease through manipulation.

Car people/finance people, if this happens (referencing the comments below), if Trump goes through with revoking the $7,500 EV credit, what will it do to Tesla's stock prices?  And if the carbon credits thing is canceled, that just seems like it would put Tesla in the red.

Both things are true.  Yet his conclusion is still rubbish, because Elon speaks in absurd absolutes.  There are numerous missions for which a larger, manned platform is the vastly superior approach, and that will remain the case for some time to come.

And if you think that the advanced militaries of the world aren't the bleeding edge of the shift to larger drones performing more complex missions, you are a dipshit who knows only a little bit, but thinks he knows a lot.  So....you're Elon.

He stated his conclusion.  Yes, in a Tweet.  Because he's as simple-minded as Tweet communication.  Here's his conclusion, in his own fucking words, quoted:

Quote

The F-35 design was broken at the requirements level, because it was required to be too many things to too many people.

This made it an expensive & complex jack of all trades, master of none. Success was never in the set of possible outcomes.

And manned fighter jets are obsolete in the age of drones anyway. Will just get pilots killed.

First point: not entirely "broken," although yes, the requirement of multiple roles did indeed make it too jack-of-all-trades.  Most experts agree.

Second point: agree on the jack-of-all-trades point.  Current usage demonstrates that "success was never in the set of possible outcomes" is flat-out false.  It is already being successfully used in battle.

Third point: False.  Someday, they WILL be obsolete.  But as real-time wars being fought this very minute demonstrate, they are NOT obsolete at present.  And they will not be obsolete for many years to come.

 

Elon's military mindset is pretty fucking similar to this dude's:

 

He is the textbook Dunning Kruger case of someone who knows a fair bit about subject A, and then extrapolates that to acting as if he's an expert in subjects B-Z.  Elon isn't smart enough to know how dumb he is.

[Captain Ron 12912]

 It's not an either/or proposition. They both serve a purpose. Sometimes you need an F35, sometimes you need drones, sometimes you need something else.

To boil it down to a black and white issue just shows you really don't know what you are talking about.
