I still say that Elysium ages better than most, it's one of the few movies where special forces operators are depicted as little more than disgusting monsters. Sharto Copley is once again brilliant in his role. It's appropriate that their final act in the film would be to attempt a coup on the society that fostered their psychopathy. And the good guys in that film would be the villains of any other Hollywood propaganda movie.

Spider, the Latino hacker/'gang leader' is the hero. Max is just some doofus who was eventually made to do something selfless when no options remained for saving himself above others. Good movie. I always loved seeing the James Cameron film references laden throughout Neil Blomkamp's films, too. The PIN-hacking machine is running a program identical to John Connor's little tool in T2. The year's the same as Avatar's. Drake(y) and Crowe are, obviously, cribbed handles from Aliens. Love it.

strange how the south african guy keeps making movies about an exploitive race-based ruling class supported by hordes of murder psychos for hire.

Tesla series was A+ poo poo, pretty much confirmed my suspicion that as they said, it is a fake company that doesn't make any money and barely makes cars. Holy gently caress that they let it be listed on the S&P 500 too, get that poo poo out of there before it implodes the entire world economy.

Did Brace & Liz do an episode about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos? Very similar “this is so obviously a scam” vibes.

Someone uploaded an old Chapo clip from when Theranos started to collapse and it's funny having Will ask Noah Kulwin if Homles's voice is fake because when Theranos was on the rise I felt like I was on crazy pills because nobody mentioned it and it was so obvious to me.

my brother was really excited about the autopilot thing and preordered a model 3.

then lol car arrived without any coolant in it whatsoever, he had to drive over four hours to find a “dealership” to diagnose the ticking time bomb of a cooling system, he found out that “autopilot” is a dangerous, untrustworthy mess, and like my friend liz said, there just aren’t enough superchargers to take a long road trip, and the ones that do exist are always slammed, so you might wait over an hour just to get a place to charge up.

he’s about to sell it and buy a prius or some other hybrid

gently caress a Prius, they are dreadful, get a Mercedes hybrid, it's probably even cheaper than a muskmobile.

Edit: also regarding autopilot, most newer good cars have some driving assist stuff that works great and they also explicitly tell you it's just assisting you, not driving for you. Rented a Volvo V90 last summer for a long drive and the lane assist and radar cruise control made highway grinding so much more pleasant.

i've almost finished the 2nd musk episode and idk if it's because i've been tracking his shittyness since early days, but these are too long imo.

edit: i was going to say i'm close to end of part 3 but there's still 25 minutes left lmao. part 3 and the end of part 2 is better.

I remain convinced JFK shot himself in his hotel room that morning for whatever reason and everything that followed was an elaborate cover-up to hide the fact that the first catholic president committed a mortal sin

When I say “the CIA killed JFK” I mean it the same way I mean “Bush did 9/11”, in that they absolutely could have stopped it from happening, but intervening would be at odds with their stated agenda and goals, so it’s more convenient to simply pretend not to know and do your best to make it look like you couldn’t have possibly known

The conspiracy theory was that he was an American CIA agent named Tim Osman. It probably never gained legs because he was actually affiliated with the CIA in reality.
