Steadiman posted:He’s probably gonna use that rent thing as an excuse to move the operation to Texas. In that's the case, Melon Husk will surely do a 'relocate or be fired' edict as well as refusing to cover any costs associated with moving. Also they'll have 2 days to decide. And another two days to start working in the new office. Side cameras are a good idea as long as they have decided screens. Cameras do have advantages too. They can be pointed at exactly the right place and don't need to be adjusted. They can be placed anywhere- not just right next to the doors. You'll no longer need the wide angle mirror with the 'objects may appear' warning: everything will look right. You don't need to have mirrors that fold manually or automatically. As for floating Cybetrucks: lol. First, Tesla's fit and finish issues are pretty huge and there's no way the thing would be close to watertight. Second, you would just float along with wind and current. Once the tires don't make contact with the ground- the truck has no form of propulsion.

SRQ posted:ACTUALLY More importantly, Star Trek "figured out" super durable see-thru metal windows that could also function as large video displays. Here in the unwritten world, we have: Replace handles, buttons, and instrument cluster with an iPad. Replace mirrors with 3 iPads. Replace the windshield with 20 iPads, tiled. That said, in most Trek series we're on fancy Federation ships with huge crews that work nonstop in shifts to keep crap working smoothly (regardless, the action in every other episode will hinge on transdimensional hitchhikers or the hologram of a Victorian literary figure taking over the frigging things); I imagine if technocars were made by the United States government as mobile symbols of their military, scientific and cultural supremacy- and they staffed those cars with highly qualified engineers- I might feel slightly more confident in driving them... until of course the AI ghost of Mr. Darcy seizes the steering wheel and plows us through a roving bachelorette party.

Twitter is not solely owned by Musk, but it is majority proof owned by him so while he owes a duty of care to the minority owners, the typical answer is gonna be "get hosed" on most business decisions.

mysterious frankie posted:More importantly, Star Trek "figured out" super durable see-thru metal windows that could also function as large video displays. Here in the unwritten world, we have: To be a huge nerd for a sec, the Star Trek viewscreen isn't a window, it's just a screen. There's a window on top of the bridge in TNG, and windows all over the outer rooms, and yeah they are made of transparent aluminium, but that one's just a screen. In the later movies it's not even a screen, it's just a hologram of a screen and when it's off there's nothing there at all, but they don't ever actually say anything about that, it's just a detail you can catch if you're observant People keep telling me the TNG one is holographic too and that explains what's up with some weird looking side-on shots but I don't buy that, I think the production staff just didn't want to simulate that kind of skew on a greenscreen and they hoped you wouldn't notice All of these are naturally way more advanced than modern technology can handle, and what modern technology can handle is lightyears ahead of what Tesla would put in their lithium fires on wheels

Musk Urged His Fans to Back GOP in Midterms—Then Didn’t Vote Musk’s political advocacy accelerated last spring, around the time he was maneuvering to acquire Twitter. “In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party. But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican,” he tweeted in May. Later that month, he added, “Given unprovoked attacks by leading Democrats against me & a very cold shoulder to Tesla & SpaceX, I intend to vote Republican in November.” “First time I ever voted Republican,” Musk declared at the time. “Massive red wave in 2022.” “Based on our records, we do not have any indication that Mr. Musk participated in the November 2022 Election in Cameron County,” the county’s election administrator told The Daily Beast. The official added that Musk could not have voted in another county, since that would have triggered the cancellation of his initial registration. An official in the Texas Secretary of State’s Office confirmed that Musk is only registered to vote in Cameron County, noting that any changes would show up in state databases. The office’s records also showed that Musk did not vote in the midterms. digital penitence fucked around with this message at 16:56 on Dec 14, 2022 |

Someone else said it and it's really true: Elon should have bought Reddit. He's the living embodiment of le epic edgy Redditor; they probably would have gotten a kick out of that. Ultimately, though, buying Twitter is better because now we get to see him tank his reputation (and the illusion that SV techbros are intelligent and good at business) in real time.

The problem is that Twitter is high(er) visibility than Reddit, and the narcissist in him would absolutely refuse to be on a "lesser" platform. The best decision for him would be to turn off the computer and go touch grass; absent that you have to consider what the self-infatuated brain worms pulling on his ganglia are telling him to do. He becomes pretty predictable once you think of it in those terms.

There is zero percent chance he is removed like a third of the board is himself his brother and James Murdoch (Yes that Murdoch.). Some of the other board members came to his defense in the last investor lawsuit on his compensation and see to be totally brainwashed.

Most people don't follow Elon on Twitter either (I don't, and only find his tweets through this thread) but they're widely reported. You can have a wall-gardened experience with Twitter and while it's much much easier on Reddit since the subs are by default segregated, if you don't want Elon in your feed it's pretty easy to do. But ultimately what Elon says only gets the traction it does because a bunch of people are breathlessly running to repeat it in other media so you can't avoid it unless you don't read anything else.
