Neuralink probably just pushes ads directly into monkeys’ brains. Infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters could be infinite engagement instead. Sell the typewriters.

To be more serious, though: Elon's "but they were terminal monkeys!" is lame as hell (much like Elon himself). Animal abuse is animal abuse.

yeah DeLoreans are actually cool cars once you swap the engine for something that doesn't suck poo poo. They look really good painted, too.

The Cybertruck wants to be that instantly iconic so bad but it just looks like... poo poo.

the Delorean is the ultimate don't meet your hero car

it's bad at everything and even if it was good, good cars in 1982 sucked poo poo

As long as you don't want it to be fast, comfortable, reliable or fun to drive they rock

I just want to point out that Azalea Banks, the arguably very strange woman who sacrifices chickens did at least two very awesome things
A. Dubbed Elon "Apartheid Clyde"
B. When it was suggested she'd avoid covid vaccines because of her odd beliefs, responded along the lines of, "I may be weird but I am not stupid, of course I got vaccinated"

Hold on, I'm gonna need some more details about this one.

The jist of it is Grimes invited Azealia Banks to the mansion she was living in with Elon to record a song for an album. This was the weekend where he tweeted out about the 420 share price. Apparently she saw him freaking out about it and Grimes was too busy consoling him about it to work on the song, so she was like left alone in this big house with her hosts completely ignoring her for days. Azealia claimed that Musk was on acid when he made the tweet and she was so pissed off over the wasted weekend that she accused grimes of inviting her over for a threesome before the plans got derailed.

One theory the Internet has is that Elon thought Grimes was talking about Iggy Azaelia and part of his weird behaviour that weekend was being disappointed that he wasn't getting a threesome with the right pop star.

Also Azaelia said grimes smells like a roll of quarters and that grimes was astounded thad she knew how to scramble an egg.

I think that's the whole story.

The only reason people remember Deloreans is because Back to the Future. Gull wing doors look cool, but are hilariously impratical - parking would become far more difficult.

But you can’t just open them a small amount to squeeze in/out if it’s a tight fit

Viewed from the top down, opening a normal door adds a triangle of varying width to the car's profile. It can be quite a narrow triangle if it needs to be, and if you can fit through the gap.

Opening a gullwing door adds a massive loving rectangle wider than your car is tall, and since its maximum width happens at the middle of the opening motion, there's no way to make that smaller unless you get out of your car by rolling under the door like Indiana Jones. You need two or three cars' worth of parking space just to exit the vehicle. Even a knee high wall next to the thing makes it impossible to get out without damaging your ludicrously expensive brushed steel folly.

When properly designed and counterbalanced, they require little side-clearance to open (about 27.5 cm, or 11" in the DeLorean[4] and allow much better entrance/egress than conventional doors.
