Still goddamned flabbergasted that somehow elon became the literal embodiment of the antagonist Veppers from Iain M. Banks' Surface Detail, given the fact that it's Grimes' favorite novel and he was trying to impress her constantly by miming his stuff and all that.

Okay the ponyposting is... a thing. And it made me laugh. And I'm not comfortable with myself for laughing at the concept described in the aforementioned post, so I'll ignore it, broadly speaking; but the point is solid: Elon's got facebook boomer posting energy. e: and by energy i mean like whatever that weird glowing green poo poo you see always applied to undead in art is

Dapper_Swindler posted:You should laugh. It was a very stupid idea I thought up and wanted to see brought to life. It’s loving dumb as hell and it makes me laugh looking at it. My point in embarrassing myself is if your gonna be a weird dweeb with money and shitposting, then go all the way, Elon can’t even do that right, he just screams pickle Rick at people and posts nazi poo poo because he still thinks the world is 4chan. Oh, 100%. My discomfort mostly stems from realizing I would absolutely do the exact same thing if I wasn't already spending all my spare money on my weirdo side-hobbies of dressing up like a knight and getting traumatic brain injuries (buhurt). Like looking into the mirror, you know? Maybe I should get Rainbow Dash rampant regardant as the heraldry on the shield I commission for next year... That said, I am kind of curious as to HOW Elon got so 4chanbrained. I don't think I've ever seen him reference a greentext or anything; is it just cultural diffusion and social media osmosis?

Sankis posted:lmao I can't wait until he starts getting hit with charge back fees as botters use stolen credit cards to make accounts en masse $1/year from every user won't even cover the processing fees from any PCP, let alone the compliance and etc. they'll need to cover before they can even start taking cards, with any organization that isn't basically running Billionaire Prince and phony call center scams out of their slushfunds. My money's on him hearing about test transaction ($1-$11 charges that show up on your credit card statement but get removed later; they're there to validate the authenticity of the card) and thinking: `great we'll just implement our own version of that`. But that's probably more thought than was actually given before or since.

priznat posted:Cutting a free hanging paper is going to be tough regardless if it’s some chonky billionaire weeb trying for it or yojimbo himself. That’s gotta be sharp beyond what most swords are sharpened to (because a sharp edge is also very fragile). I mean, even excepting that, since paper-cutting is absolutely a thing that's done in sword martial arts (you have to have tension on both sides of the paper, though), and the fact that swords don't really have to be that sharp to do it, I just hope his sword wasn't sharpened at all because the boy fuckhead wonder actually mimed attacking the reporter with a potentially sharpened sword and UH WHAT

Serious question: Does/has anyone here actually own/owned a tesla? How do you deal with parts? I'm not too hip on what their supply line looks like these days, but I can't imagine there's a ton of after-market parts for the various models out there... and I can't imagine Musk/the engineers I knew that went to Tesla doing standardized anything, so I'm legitimately curious. Do you just, like, get into a fender bender and write the thing off as totaled because a new bumper costs more than a honda civic? What if that shitass excuse for an infotainment system dies? Can you do anything at home to it???

Why does it do this? Why does it bother me so badly? Is it a tiny little baby stirrup for your dainty little toes while you hang on during the cyberpocalypse while elon clone #68 blasts sentinels from the back with a practical-effectsed pom-pom gun leftover from ww2? Is it just to make it look aerodynamic but... not be??? It's so bizarre; just pop the wheel well out a bit, make it look a bit more like your dumbass rocket? Man I'm putting more thought into this than Elon ever did, gently caress me.

Grimes is actually the primary reason I don't tell people just how influential Iain M. Banks's novels have been in my life/career. Which is a shame because I got into her music back in, like, 2015 when I transitioned and so I have a lot of positive memories associated with her music, before I knew about, uh, anything about her outside of her music. Nazi fucks ruin everything.

PhazonLink posted:so what makes Dune "worth it", like i know nothing about it other than the "spice must flow" line. If nothing else, I suggest reading the first novel because it's one of the cornerstone pieces of modern science-fiction/speculative fiction and I, personally, think it's pretty cool to see how it influenced everything after it. It's also got some nice prose and cool ideas (especially for the time) in there, though, if those are more your speed. After the first book, however, eh, I'd say you could safely ignore it all unless you really dig the weirdo bizarro future Herbert dreamt up. I'd say pick it up along with the first Foundation novel(s) to do a compare/contrast if you're of the literary mindset, since Dune was written as kind of a giant 'nah actually this is closer to how I see it playing out' response to the Foundation trilogy. E: Quote is not edit god dammit

Evilreaver posted:Plot twist: by wild coincidence he ends up randomly firing only military personnel, thereby actually saving the economy and forcing the withdrawal of America's "we're the global police" stance Except this would probably lead to a more pronounced and immediately apparent economic collapse than just firing the other federal employees not directly involved in the military industrial complex and all of its hydra-esque ties back to, uh, everywhere. Funny, and morally probably needs to happen (or will? is? man who fuckin knows) but jesus this would be probably the quickest way to destroy the nation I can think of, and that's on top of Vivek's already insane plan to destroy the nation.
