Elon Musk

yeah I mean I'm not a scientist but what he said about tunnels was convincing.

A+ work Karl let's make that shit go viral

i posted it on imgur and it received a negative score, i posted it on reddit and 40% of the thread downvoted it. i have learned enough to know that the rest of the internet is not ilx, but i have not learned enough to stop trying

twitter

Wow I really hope this dingus loses his security clearance

bit harsh on karl just for getting downvotes tbh

Those images have been giving me life in the last couple of days. Best meme since Croatian fascist takes cyanide at his trial. We'll done Elon (and KM!)

is he fired yet

ive fired him effective immediately

He will fire himself but after a long discussion with himself, come crawling back to himself and beg for his job back

Yes, I wonder if he will go on a killing spree. Yes, I track his flights. Yes, I have spoken to some of his overnight friends. Yes, he was out of control at Burning Man. Yes, you should ask @AZEALIABANKSNYC for a quote. Buy some soap first though.

enty admitted to fabricating his stories, I'd believe Elon over him

well, s/admitted/was proven to have, but nevertheless

https://nypost.com/2012/04/01/how-crazy-days-and-nights-fooled-hollywood/

he had some good stories too tho before ~the msm~

ELon once ate with Max Tegmark, that crazy Swede! that must have been one funky night

a have a friend that listened to the whole interview and is now bemoaning that the "so-called news" is only talking about him smoking a blunt and not all his musings on robotics and AI and giant tunnels and all the other things he is constantly and publicly talking about

he's not exactly a modern day tesla more like the Bill Gates of electric cars

he's clive sinclair without the common decency to even produce a zx spectrum

and clive sinlcair was man enough to embrace his baldness

shakey is there a thread where we talk about this?

The first 100+ comments on the YouTube video itself are basically this. He's not a total idiot, but fuck he's got so many red flags and a clear propensity for childish distractions. What he said about AI and robotics was nothing new.

I don't understand how people accept that the technology necessary to simulate their human experience many times over is a given or that it would only not happen if the world abruptly ended in the near future.

step 1 of his simulation theory fun -- imagine any rate of improvement in computing power, gaming, etc., already seems so naive. why would you assume this shit won't roll off? but maybe I'm missing something.

and he describes the neuralink stuff as solving a bandwidth issue at the link between your mind's queries and the internet. but it seems like the speed at which my dumb brain can generate these queries will remain as a serious bottleneck? neuralink will disrupt mavis beacon typing instruction software!

bill gates was a business genius, musk seems like more of a startup guy + good at media

gates obvs more technical than musk too

'gates' also a more technical term than 'musk'

things are going great!!!!

I would have Musk pegged as a Timbuk 3 fan, their hit does seem to represent his outlook on the world

https://i.redd.it/hjo6ykhn0tl11.jpg

does this mean what I think it does

Wait, so Teslas are usually being ... throttled?

ha, exactly

its like that thing they do with video games now where all the content is on the disc but you have to pay an extra $15 to unlock some of it

'throttling' applies to changing or limiting a rate and not to changing or limiting capacity

tesla: the ea of car manufacturers

I don't know. there could be warrantied maintenance implications tied to the amount you're allowed to discharge the battery.

xp fitting tbh. he said in the Rogan interview that they've just installed an Atari emulator in the latest Tesla. god this guy is so LAME

xp that's a good point, they could just be suspending the warranty for charge/discharge greater than the maximum in the specs

"warranty penalty", sorry

another thing: 'throttling' was really only an issue in that it would favor large internet businesses over the smaller guys with less money. There's always been throttling of internet speeds for the customer based on what that customer would pay.

GET OFF THE GANJA ELON!!YOU WRECKIN YOR MIND

just gonna FP your garbage posts from now on, knock it off
