And that Palantir is an MIC contractor. They would have this outlook because it would keep them busy. The reality of such a scenario is far more unrealistic.

Quick reminder that Elon’s dad is also a creep around women.

Errol likely groomed his own stepdaughter. They now have 2 kids.

Then he fired his PR team not long after that. He pushed out all the people getting paid to help him not look like an idiot.

It’s just the Jack Welch playbook over and over. Even though people finally started to realize Jack was a fucking idiot and ruined GE.

He got rich. But fucked one of the most well known and respected companies in the world doing it.

There are also far far fewer of us. Peak user count I’ve seen was just over 400. I’d bet unique users was in the 10k range.

Place was seeing millions of users. Lot more competition going on for space.

Would it change your mind if I have a giant Shrek template? Was too late to the expansion to deploy it without going over stuff people were making.

Can you point out in this time lapse what flag you’re referring to?

They do actually. CNN was bought by open Trump supporters back in 2022. It’s been stated a few times they want CNN to become another Fox News.

He fired his PR team a few years ago. That’s been the difference.

He said plenty of dumb shit prior with people cleaning it up. One of my favorites was probably 10 years ago now. He claimed Model 3 assembly line automation would move so fast they’d have to worry about wind resistance.

My friends and co-workers still laugh about that one now. It’s such an absurd “business” mentality of go fast = good. So go crazy fast = more good. With a technology that doesn’t exist and kinda doesn’t need to. It makes more sense to increase system capacity (multiple lines) when you’re chasing throughput like that. But what makes even more sense is accurately forecasting your production so you don’t have to slap a full car together in 30 minutes to keep up with demand.

That $10k Chinese car cost $20k to make. A competitor undercutting the market that much leads to monopolization. When that competitor is being bankrolled by a foreign government it’s potentially even a hostile act.

People have been mad for decades about what Walmart did to retail in the US. Taking steps to prevent that from also happening with the auto industry should be appreciated.

Had pancreatitis because of his diet. A diet in which he thought would magically avoid creating body odor.

It turned into cancer. He lucked out that it was a rare form of treatable pancreatic cancer with a 90% survival rate 5 years out. Which is abnormal as most forms of pancreatic are essentially a death sentence. Survival rate past 3 years is under 10% for the more common variants.

Stuck to his diet anyway. Ignored his doctors. Died to an illness he had a 90% chance of beating because he knew better.

Same. Lost all interest when Palmer sold out to Zuck.

You joke but it’s not terribly far off.

Their real hope was to get Hyundai Kia to build EVs for them. While letting Apple act like they were the majority stakeholder of the deal.

His pay was $300k something. So it was almost all stock. To convert his ownership stake into shares ahead of the IPO as you mentioned.

He supposedly owns around 3-4% of Reddit. And they’re trying to IPO at an initial valuation of $5B. So when that goes to shit like it probably will this theoretical $192M drops dramatically.

A Republican is grand standing about information he’s being briefed on during a meeting scheduled for tomorrow.

So my Spidey sense says no. There is no reason to do what Turner did today. Unless you’re an idiot. Or you want to indirectly tell people such a briefing is happening.

Lately it means they tried, failed, but want people to think they’re still as capable as the Soviet Union. Which they aren’t. Haven’t been for decades. Much of Soviet engineering might came from Ukraine. It’s part of why Pootin so desperately wants to subjugate them again.

Eh that’s not the issue here. Old Harpoon missile was phased out last year. Before planned replacement from Sweden was available. The “scandal” is people not planning ahead to cover that gap.

New missiles built in Sweden are already on at least one of these particular boats. And another UK designed cruise missile is in the works. So in the meantime, the UK is running attack flights instead.

It’s not really the L tankie boy was trying for with this post. I get for those people it’s difficult to understand having overlapping layers of capability.
