Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Im starting to believe this musk fellah might not be all that concerned with the environment after all.

As long as it isn't where he is, why should he care? He's retiring on Mars, anyway.

(Please, deities, send Musk and Thiel to Mars soon. Together, if possible.)

Oddly enough, Musk is the one of these people who seems reluctant to go into space, either he gets the risks, doesnt care, has trauma from the car crash, or is mega paranoid, I dont think he will ever leave.

I also base this on the fact that he is a big liar, who also does a lot of lies by omission. (Like his diablo world record, based on a health bug exploit). https://futurism.com/the-byte/elon-musk-diablo-record

But yes, bang zoom, straight into the sun.

"So many life lessons to be learned from speedrunning video games on max difficulty," Musk wrote. "Teaches you to see the matrix, rather than simply exist in the matrix."

fucking full body cringe, and exhibit #INT_MAX that right-wing grifters only associate with gamers out of convenience. I look forward to the spliced Super Mario Bros speedrun and associated Andrew Tate wannabe posts about how the red mushroom and green mushroom are like the red pill and blue pill
