frumpykvetchbot posted:The janky-rear end assembly looks super improvised. What in hell are those LED modules they've made the sign from? they don't look like any signage LED module I've ever seen. The bulk and depth of the modules looks high powered. The video shows how absurdly bright they are, completely inappropriate for inner-city signage. Sometimes working in an office you get assigned a little fun task to help with team building. Imagine getting pulled aside by a middle manager saying "Two weeks ago Deb decorated John's desk for his birthday. And last week Ryan got donuts for everyone. So this week's your turn and what I'm going to need you to do this week is erect a giant X on the roof."

Probably the cheapest, easily available, semi-weatherproof units available. Unless they built it out of dismantled floodlights.

a janky, hastily built temporary sign designed to annoy everyone, placed on the edge of a skyscraper, and supported only by sandbags, is a pretty apt metaphor for Twitter

Honestly some part of me is expecting this to end with Elon ironically being under that sign when, not if, it falls over onto the sidewalk.

Scientastic posted:I just want to say that this is not true. She pretends to be/thinks she is/dresses like an insane techno princess from a William Gibson novel. The reality is that she has made some decent music and is a bit weird, she’s actually done nothing that different to other popstars. Performance art is a large part of a few Gibson characters which is why I pointed at that. Whether there’s something deeper underneath is irrelevant, like whether or not they “actually” are this person versus just pretending to be there really doesn’t matter. It’s futuristic, it’s weird, it’s unexpected, occasionally stupid. That’s the Grimes character, one that slots in perfectly into a cyberpunk story about psychic dolphins and mental hack ports. Elon is the type of guy who mistakes personal brand for identity. His PR team crafted a character back in the 2000’s for him as the tech innovator of the century - the industry idol, the techno brainiac, the type of guy you want to have money. This was all extremely effective marketing that the tech press ate up with very little critical thinking - still high off of blowjobbing of Steve Jobs and Jony Ive and the new venture capital landscape of Silicon Valley. Elon believes all of that hype. My point is that Grimes’ personal pop star brand is exactly what Elon wants the most out of everything in the world. Of course, she has at least some talent (quibble with me on how much, whatever, I don’t care) and Elon has none.

Honestly surprised none of his stupid poo poo at tesla, spacex and now twitter hasn’t directly caused a death due to one dumb edict or another. The tesla fsd killing people is close but it lacks the immediate effect. He’s just been lucky so far really. Oh and also that stupid vegas tunnel. That will kill someone sooner or later.
