March 9Mar 9 fuck the earth amirite? Quote Feb. 5, 2025 (Spaceweather.com): What goes up, must come down–which could be a problem when you’re launching thousands of satellites. Since 2018, SpaceX has placed more than 7,000 Starlink satellites into Earth orbit, and now they are starting to come down. In January alone, more than 120 Starlinks deorbited, creating a shower of fireballs. “The sustained rate of daily reentries is unprecedented,” says Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard Center for Astrophysics who tracks satellites. “They are retiring and incinerating about 4 or 5 Starlinks every day.” https://spaceweatherarchive.com/2025/02/19/unprecedented-starlink-reentries/

I am no fan of either fella, but I know an ass whoopin' when I see one. I'm not saying Putty would be a world champion light weight MMA fighter at his 5'7" 150ish fighting weight, BUT an FSB grad is gonna make quick work of a fat nerd who has to fake online gaming skills.

March 10Mar 10 Not entirely Elon related but putting it here anyway. https://www.wired.com/story/plaintext-kryptos-code-artificial-intelligence/ Quote Clearly, despite the drain on Sanborn’s time and attention, he takes pride that his work remains relevant. You may need a security clearance or special permission to view Kryptos, but the invitation to solve it keeps the work perpetually alive, which is an artist’s dream. But then Sanborn checks his mail and sees this: “I’m just a vet,” someone writes. “Cracked it in days with Grok 3.” The answer wasn’t even close. Edited March 10Mar 10 by Al Bundy's Napoleon Hand

Just goes to show that if someone had given him more of a nudge when he began his whole midlife crisis, we could've avoided this whole DOGE fiasco because Elon would've just started his own middle-aged boy/rock band kinda like other celebs and rich guys do.
March 10Mar 10 Or just focus on building great EV’s. We forget how awesome the early Teslas were. Just expand on that and forget the stupid crap you did instead. Edited March 10Mar 10 by Parliament
March 10Mar 10 TSLA topped out at 488 back in Dec. It is now worth less than half of that. Nice work Elmo. I'm sure your shareholders appreciate it. Of course, the board could always do their job and boot his ass from the company. Lulz.
March 10Mar 10 They still could. Their brand power is good and I presume they have the cash and borrowing power to update their line. New S, 3, X and Y’s and a recommitment to charging networks. Drop the pickup, de emphasize FSD. Just lean in to making the best EV and the best EV experience. Traditional manufacturers are shrinking back from EV’s. Done right, Tesla can soak up that demand. At this point would making Elon walk the plank hurt the brand or business? Europe hates him. Crunchy (nttawwt) EV enthusiasts are literally rebranding their Teslas. The board follows whatever common procedure for dumping Elon, goes on a apology tour and launches some “re-engagement incentives” that are ideally cost effective. Bam. Tesla becomes the cool kid again. Re-emerges as the EV leader. They can do it. I know they can.

There are bumper stickers people are putting on them to state that they purchased it before they knew he was a fucking Nazi. Show me one market where he's in positive favorability. He's doing more to wreck any goodwill he had more than anyone I can remember. There has to be someone that could compete with him for that ignominious title but I don't remember them. EV isn't going away, but it's not going to be Tesla that benefits from it. edit: Oh yeah I meant to say Twitter is fucked this morning. Another thing that he has managed to enshitten with rapidity.

So they don't care how much he destroys the actual brand, because if they replace Elon the market will start treating TSLA like an automobile manufacturer and not like a magical tech company.

Elon is TSLA, TSLA is Elon. Kind of like how there is no GOP but Trump anymore. The TSLA board has to be ride-or-die with Elon. Let's hope the outcome is "die." Because fuck all of them, and fuck the economic enshittification that is "meme stocks."
March 10Mar 10 TESLA is/was an energy company that used cars to get people addicted to their new age business plan: Instead of building supply lines to the customers, the customers come to you. They were using gasolines point of sale business model to provide transportation energy as well as solutions to people wanting to live off grid. Elon kept thinking that it’s a transportation/ robotics (security & military)/ tech company that made him important and cool. The South African P.T. Barnum has been able to fool people for 15 to 20 years… but as he is getting the ultimate access to power, the curtain has as been pulled back on his Wizard of Oz charade. He should have focusing on becoming the new John Paul Getty.

Tornado alley is solidly Trump country. When the leopard of mother nature eats some of their faces, without any of the warning that a functioning weather science system used to provide......that will be good for society as a whole. They want people to suffer by a massive cessation of government services. They think that everyone who benefits from government services is "welfare queens" (and we all know what color those welfare queens are). Turns out, people who depend on weather warnings to survive are also "welfare queens." Guess they should pull themselves up by their bootstraps and get their own radar and communications connectivity. Fucking leeches.
