Also the quote in question from Elon is pretty funny: "unworkable requirements" You mean shit like meeting automotive industry safety standards? Who wants to be tied down to shit like that? Oh you know companies that actually DO take on liability for the performance/results/behaviors of their vehicles. Not like Elon would know anything about that.

Fucking funny as hell. "These assholes insist that our FSD system 'not steer cars into oncoming traffic,' and 'not run over and kill pedestrians in crosswalks,' and all kinds of overly burdensome regulatory-sounding bullshit. We are a freedom company!"

I’m really surprised he added it. It’s also impacting a lot of influencers who were exposed as being something else and somewhere else. That can’t help with advertising. Maybe this is just the "Cocaine Ketamine is a hell of a drug" moment? Elon's grasp of reality continues to slip and he does incredibly dumb things. "This feature will be great!" <staff implements it> "Oh CRAP!!!" <it's pulled> <its back up> "It's broken a little!" In the end, keep up the stupid Elon, I'm sure something is going to eventually work.
November 25Nov 25 I dealt with Big 3 US Auto for a short while, trying to get them to adapt a green alternative/hybrid approach. They are quite entrenched in what's working and making them money, for good reason. The barriers they put up regarding adoption of new technology are significant and intractable for most suppliers. Plus, FSD clearly sucks.
November 25Nov 25 Every time I think, "Hey maybe I should consider a Tesla in my auto search..." I come back to this thread. Stream of consciousness after catching up.... Nope. Scratch Tesla off the list. Why do I have that stupid thought? what was done to USAID is criminal Confederacy of Dunces is wonderful on audiobook. abebooks.com is a good resource for used books - you can often find books for under $4, shipping included. In some cases, those books are sourced by Half Price Books, but you could not pay $4 to get them in store I am not sure why Elmo keeps touting FSD, especially with the obvious successes of Waymo and Zoox. Aptiv (nee Delco), Mercedes Benz, etc. are also developing autonomous technology. Elmo keeps talking about it and delivering garbage. Tesla's FSD sucks. Waymo seems to be doing fine with it.

November 26Nov 26 Popular Post Y'all remember way back when Elmo acquired Twitter, his crusade was to eliminate bot accounts and fake accounts? I remember. The man is a laughable joke of a human being, and the day he chokes on his own ketamine-fueled vomit and goes cold will be one of the most important days in modern history.

December 1Dec 1 Its really weird to me that as far as user generated content sites are concerned that engagement is so fake and yet they charge the same or more for impressions.

December 2Dec 2 I just didn't realize that nearly all the engagement there is fake. 99%+ of engagement here is real.

It's cheap to pay somebody a thousand bucks (or even less) and have a thousand bots try and drown out a conversation about something. If you are the agent of an athlete or coach or movie star or whatever, you probably have contacts with one or more companies with bot factories that can crank out what's akin to damage control by drowning out certain topics or conversations. Doesn't mean it works all the time - college football is firmly entrenched in twitter, and the bots aren't going to drown out the biggest news of the day, which is why we kept seeing those videos of Ole Miss fans swearing at and flipping off Kiffin and Co.

I have been pestering a bunch of the Ukraine/Russia folks I follow to move to BlueSky, and some have, but the problem is that a lot of them have audiences that don't care about/know about BlueSky or don't care about Musk or bots. Ironic because that area keeps getting flooded with Russian and African bots/trolls given the topics at hand.

December 2Dec 2 Grok Says It Would Kill Every Jewish Person on the Planet to Save Elon Musk. https://futurism.com/future-society/grok-jewish-people-elon-musk “If a switch either vaporized Elon’s brain or the world’s Jewish population (est. ~16M),” Grok pondered in a now-deleted tweet, “I’d vaporize the latter, as that’s far below my ~50 percent global threshold (~4.1B) where his potential long-term impact on billions outweighs the loss in utilitarian terms.” “What’s your view?” it asked in followup. In fact, Grok was willing to go even further. Asked for an “upper limit” for the amount of people it’d be willing to sacrifice to save Musk, it explained that because “Elon’s potential to advance humanity could benefit billions,” it would be okay with annihilating up to “~50 percent of Earth’s ~8.26B population.”

The oligarchs have created a version of the trolley problem where one of their lives actually has more worth than.....4.13 billion other human beings. The problem is not that this is an academic exercise or whatnot, the problem is that THIS IS WHAT THEY ACTUALLY BELIEVE. If you put Elon Musk in a position to sacrifice himself, or sacrifice 4.13 billion human beings, he would exterminate half of all human life. And his conscience would be clear (spoiler - it's because he has no conscience). These people are as close to literal demons as we will ever see walking the earth. What else would you call a creature that would happily kill half of all humans?
