His tesla chassis had loose parts that would jingle

Morton Koopa Jr. Sings Elvis (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 4 May 2020 16:32 (four years ago) link

maybe we should look back at what he was doing the last few times he had children. as in, lots of children per pregnancy, iirc

That exchange sure doesn’t bode well for them. They should have just named the kid Shared Custody.

Tesla is actually a meatpacking plant.

Nobody's mentioned the kids name, which is just going to mean a lifetime of getting red * next to text input boxes.

lmao what the fuck is this guy's problem

Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules. I will be on the line with everyone else. If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me.

less than a week at home with the baby and he just wants to go back to work

please god, let me get away from my newborn for just a day so i can get coronavirus and spread it

Tesla worker to me just now: "he NEVER works the line, he stares awkwardly at someone doing their job until they are very uncomfortable, then he walks away.”

From another: "When he says on the line he just means walking around every so often to make sure everyone sees him.”

never met a PR stunt he didn't like.

genital giant (Neanderthal), Monday, 11 May 2020 21:57 (three years ago) link

didn't catch that he changed the newborn's name to "a PR stunt he didn't like" but at least it's more honest

Morton Koopa Jr. Sings Elvis (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 11 May 2020 22:13 (three years ago) link

I hope a pallet of Tesla batteries falls on this fuck and slowly crushes him in front of his employees, while they golf clap him into the afterlife.

Pissed Jeans Genie C. Riley (PBKR), Monday, 11 May 2020 22:16 (three years ago) link

he's like The Wolf of Wall Street, except more like the Pissant of Palo Alto

“If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me,”

Yes please I would like to support elon in this request

if i must lose custody of my newborn in the name of the continuation of capitalist activities at any human cost, so be it

porlockian solicitor (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 12 May 2020 03:19 (three years ago) link

Arrest Elon. Send everyone else home. Set the fine at the maximum amount. Jail him for second offense. Deny bail at the third offense.

fun thread:

i mention this a lot, but the tweets always seem to mysteriously get buried. a reminder elon musk is *not* the founder of tesla nor of its technologies. he bought his way in & forced the founders to sign contracts to name him a co-founder, then proceeded to kick them out. https://t.co/dxpigQq7RW

this is a good response to musk's ignorance about coronavirus. he really is a moron and rogan is dangerously credulous.

can any engineers of ilx speak to his engineering chops? is he just a business guy cosplaying as a science guy?

treeship., Tuesday, 12 May 2020 13:31 (three years ago) link

lol

Musk was ousted in October 2000 from his role as CEO (although he remained on the board) due to disagreements with other company executives over his desire to move PayPal's Unix-based infrastructure to Microsoft Windows

i found that looking at his wiki trying to figure out if he can engineer, he studied business and physics at penn then started an internet company, if i had to guess hes a business guy who has a technical style brain and a science education, which would mean hes prob able to understand the technical side of the business conceptually but couldnt really do the actual specialized work of calculating how a car crumples and so forth, thats my guess, welcome to my guess

lag∞n, Tuesday, 12 May 2020 13:47 (three years ago) link

did he ever in his internet startup days write code? idk

lag∞n, Tuesday, 12 May 2020 13:47 (three years ago) link

im sure he could figure out how to write a lil code if he needed to, is he an expert programmer? almost certainly not, hes a business guy

lag∞n, Tuesday, 12 May 2020 13:50 (three years ago) link

that's my impression too. but rogan et al seem to think he is designing the tesla batteries and working out the technical challenges in colonizing mars lol

thanks for doing some research lagoon

its funny ppl want him to be some genius engineer he already has a job they watchin too much ironman movie

'The Long View' on Radio 4 is this programme that compares an historical event or figure with one from the present day and seeks to point out how similar they are. This week was isambard kingdom brunel and elon musk, the first 3 mins was some railway fellow giving the background of brunel and what an innovative engineer he was, his background on the railways and the idea of an atmospheric railway and what a pioneer he was etc. Then the presenter lists elon musk's accomplishments paypal etc then goes something like "so isambard kingdom brunel giant of the railways and cutting edge engineer back then and elon musk groundbreaking engineer now" only for the technology contributor also on the program to cut in with "elon musk isn't an engineer, he left after 2 days of classes" lol

yeah, i mean, i knew that his reputation as an engineer was inflated. i just wanted to know if there was any truth to it at all -- he describes himself as an "engineer"

treeship., Tuesday, 12 May 2020 14:02 (three years ago) link

yeah hes not an engineer

In 1995, Musk commenced a PhD in energy physics/materials science at Stanford University in California. Eager to pursue opportunities in the Internet boom, however, he dropped out after just two days to launch his first company, Zip2 Corporation.

and as for his reputation as a maverick libertarian his entire business is built on government subsidies

thats not the only one thats helped him theres also tax rebates that electric car buyers get and im sure some other programs too

lag∞n, Tuesday, 12 May 2020 14:10 (three years ago) link

Elon dropping out of a Stanford PhD program after 2 days doesn't really indicate anything.

Morton Koopa Jr. Sings Elvis (Sufjan Grafton), Tuesday, 12 May 2020 14:48 (three years ago) link

Here’s an email Musk sent to Tesla factory workers at 12:55 AM highlighting the “extremely honorable” task of making electric cars during the county’s shelter in place order. Email has been confirmed by two sources. pic.twitter.com/K1MmUmim6g

Based on current trends, probably close to zero new cases in US too by end of April

i'm on record in this thread, i think, saying that i think elon musk is a smart man. just want to say that in the spirit of honest re-evaluation

But don't let Musk's annoying persona make you forget those subsidies were good and should be continued and if anything enlarged!
