Elon Musk: Officially a fraud and piece of shit. Official or unofficial war criminal?

kevwun · February 26

He must have bought a laptop with Windows 11 Home because he's an idiot. With pro you still can create a local account on the pc without having a Microsoft account.

Check out the quote tweets. A bunch of Elon bootlickers who think the video is real as well. Either they're all bots or just the stupidest people alive.

“I think I’ve got a pretty good understanding as an outsider of China,” Musk said on the All-In Podcast. “From their standpoint, maybe it is analogous to Hawaii or something like that, like an integral part of China that is arbitrarily not part of China.”

He keeps publicly showing over-and-over that things he thinks are new or novel have been known by everybody else for a while, as if they didn’t exist until he personally discovered them.

Gosh. I wonder if there's any other prominent figure in American public life who's like that? Man....I wonder. I mean, in recent years, I've heard that most people don't know that Lincoln was a Republican.

Quote

Like others interviewed for this story, the tunnel worker spoke on condition of anonymity, fearing reprisals from the billionaire who operates it: Elon Musk. For nearly a decade, Musk’s tunneling venture, the Boring Company, has made grand pronouncements about buildi

ng an underground mass-transit system he calls “the hyperloop.” Musk once described this technology as a system of futuristic pods capable of ferrying people between major cities at the speed of sound. He suggested that a hyperloop would allow people to commute between New York City and Washington, DC, or between San Francisco and Los Angeles, in about half an hour.

That these boasts were taken seriously enough for Boring to raise about $800 million in outside capital, with its most recent valuation reaching $6 billion, speaks to the mythology surrounding Musk. These days, however, his luster has dimmed somewhat. His takeover of Twitter has been marked by huge losses and reports that board members are concerned about his mental health and drug use. Musk has laughed these off. His car company, Tesla, is stagnating. As Musk put it, optimistically, on an earnings call, the company is “between two major growth waves.” In January, a federal judge voided the $55 billion pay package that Tesla had awarded Musk, calling it “unfathomable” and concluding that the automaker’s board was too friendly to its CEO. The latest controversy: On Feb. 24 Forbes reported that the chair of the House China committee had accused Musk's satellite internet service, Starlink, of possibly breaching a government contract by withholding services to Taiwan. Musk has yet to respond to that claim.

Through all of this, Musk has said relatively little about the Boring Company, perhaps because of the gaping distance between his promises and execution. After more than seven years in business, the company’s only commercial project amounts to a drastically scaled-down shuttle bus system for the Vegas convention center. Mostly, it takes passengers from one side of the convention center to the other. There’s also a spur that takes guests between the convention center and the Resorts World hotel, which sits on the far side of Las Vegas Boulevard. The system operates only during conventions, and attendees ride in Tesla sedans limited to 40 miles per hour. The company has said the system can handle more than 4,500 passengers hourly.

The Encore and Westgate tunnels are extensions, part of a theoretical project to widen coverage to most of the Strip and downtown Las Vegas. But progress has been slow—so slow that Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman says she doubts it’ll ever happen. “It’s impractical,” says Goodman, who is claustrophobic and has yet to ride in any of the tunnels. “I pray that it works, but I see these stumbling blocks.” Among them, she says, are issues of capacity and safety.

Although no one has been killed at a Boring Company worksite in Las Vegas, the OSHA report shows some very close calls. Last summer, according to employees interviewed by the investigators, an intern was nearly crushed when a bin made out of two-ton concrete blocks collapsed. It had been overloaded with muck, the employees said, and the metal brackets holding it together gave way, sending the intern running. (The intern didn’t respond to inquiries for this story.) Altogether, OSHA found eight violations it categorized as “serious” and fined the Boring Company a total of $112,504 last fall.

There is no accountability anywhere. It’s actually ridiculous. Companies and advertisers just don’t even care anymore because no one is holding them accountable. Not their customers, not their board of directors, not their own leadership, not their investors. We are on a runaway commercial rape train and the only thing you can do to get off is just jump and deal with it.

Problem is people smart enough to jump and make a competing mode of transportation are in the diner car with an exclusive menu and discount vouchers.

At some point people will realize that getting raped to enrich the worst people on earth is not worth it for the brain tingles you sometimes feel.

generated by Gemini. Think what you want, but Google fucking this up actually does give believability into "woke" culture being actually divergent from reality for the sake of inclusivity. Google effectively instructed it's team and thus it's product that "being too white is bad", there isn't really an argument against it, it happened. The issue is that white people being properly represented feels like underrepresentation when it's really not.

While I hate to agree with any white nationalist propaganda, at this point I have actually seen enough from major players in the American consumer machine that are pushing DEI stuff entirely too far and too hard to the point of it being antithetical to the entire point of DEI.

It's one thing to call for inclusion and acceptance of LGBTQ, ethnic and cultural diversity and it's one thing to over-represent LGBTQ, ethnicities and cultural importance on a routine basis and over stimulate attention and opinion having on things that don't really have much to do with most people.

over-representation. I know how much these devices sold and how much they cost from a product development perspective and marketing perspective. hint: it wasn't fucking good.

Now do I think that it's bad that these 2 products exist? of course not. I think they are actually kinda cool they just have no commercial business behind them.

It's AI-generated content. Which, and I may be wrong here, means it basically trawls the fucking web. The things can't even generate proper anatomical features in most cases (too many fingers, body parts as furniture, whatever).

It's a fucking regarded magic box you type words into and it generates... something it thinks is similar.

What does that have to do with DEI? You think AI art of black founding fathers is some sort racial creep to erase whiteness? I guess I'm just not following.

They specifically programmed the output of this to replace white people with no statistical significance and against the direct ask of the prompter. They had to fucking blog about it and lost 70B+ in market cap.

I guess I just don't get your extreme reaction and rush to validate replacement theory talking points. A LLM is an engineered and designed product - and this is a bad version of a product that's being replaced. It's not some almighty and on high entity that dictates the future of all of Google. Dial back the rhetoric a bit, imma. It's close to getting toxic.

Wasn't looking to paint you as an Elon follower. They have carved out so many insane footholds to ground their even further insane beliefs that this issue doesn't really move the needle for me. Not in the same way that his bogus immigration claims and obvious Russian pandering, at least.

I'm more interested in why this is a big deal to other folks, like you. So thanks for the explanation and the link.

I've been pretty clear that I don't support or hold those views, what I was saying is stuff like this makes it harder to just call wholesale bullshit. I also see this behavior a ton at the corporate level when it makes absolutely no sense.

Ahh yes. Chapter eleventy billion in the book of "When will white people ever get a break in this country?" I love that book. It's the biggest book in American history. Well, second biggest. Right behind the book listing "All the Fucking Breaks and Advantages White People have had in this Country." I mean, we turned a brown-skinned middle eastern jew into a Nordic God so he could actually be the Son of God in our culture, so...spare me the Elon tears.
