You follow the path

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment
before the closure
when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

"Buy my product but make sure no one sees that you bought it because they all hate it" sure is a sales pitch

Not to start a derail about video games, but I remember when the latest Harry Potter game came out there was an increase of articles telling you how to hide your purchased/played games in your Steam library because people kept getting called out by friends who saw it. This is an even worse and funnier version of that because instead of using features that already existed in the storefront, it's Twitter admitting their own product has become a badge of shame and adding a feature to hide it. lmao

Buying power of 1$ over time

1933: 1$
1943: 1$
1953: 1$
1963: 1$
1973: 1$
1983: 1$
1993: 1$
2003: 1$
2013: 1$
2023: 1$


Seriously though, it's obvious this dude is ranting about inflation, but he gives zero frame of reference to provide any meaning to what the value of a dollar is relative to and provides zero sources.

Conclusion: Elon is joining this rando in going "oh goodness! Inflation! These numbers pulled out of someone's rear end get smaller!"

Ok sure, but like in 1933, $1 is like half the cost of a house. So yes, the buying power of a dollar has gone down, even if the figures provided mean nothing. How many dollars did someone earn compared to dollars today, and what could they buy with that compared to today is a more meaningful comparison. We're still getting hosed so its all semantics, but the real point is about cost inflation vs wage inflation.

I once ran a d&d module. I asked the ttrpg DM's thread for help and a very kind goon went through the structure, the story beats, tips and tricks. Gave me everything I needed to run 9 months of campaign. The instant we said goodbye his steam name went green and said he was playing melty's quest the jack off game. If you're ever going to buy a jack off game you should probably get it on itch.io even if it never goes on summer sale.

At one point Discord toggled settings to display what you were playing and I got to wonder "how do I tell my brother I can see him playing HuniePop without telling him I can see him playing HuniePop?" I decided on coincidentally having just discovered that this feature had turned itself on and talking in the Discord about how annoyed I was that it hadn't asked first and I sure was glad I noticed blah blah blah.

I feel like, if you burn to death in a tesla from now on he's just going to say sadly they jailbroke the heated seats but if they had paid money to safely heat the seats they'd be alive. Someone broke into those shipping containers and jailbroke all the heated seats at once not my fault an entire cargo ship burnt to slag.
