Musk has most of his wealth in Tesla stock. That will skyrocket if his substandard self-driving tech is allowed to be used in unattended autonomous taxis.
Instead of selling cars, he'll sell a service. Instead of selling a car costing $40,000, each car will make that in a few months.
Both sides do.
It's just a shame that was the only real option on the ballot.
Musk doesn't want to give money to Trump.
Must wanted Trump elected so he could make his self driving systems road legal for robotaxis. He's hoping to get all that money back and then some. If he gets what he wants, he'll be most of the way towards being a trillionaire.
But Trump is not a man who pays his debts and I'm here for the inevitable betrayal.
Correct, tariffs increase prices.
Ideally to more than what they would be if they were made by American workers in American factories. Otherwise there's no point and you're just increasing prices out of spite.
But we're relying on a lot of landlords to go "fair enough, we'll lower our rents so you can buy those American goods at their new higher prices" rather than going "no, go fuck yourselves". And I feel that's unrealistic.
But whatever, turkeys voting for Christmas is not a new thing and I'm sure they'll find a way to blame it on immigrants or gays or something.
It's a polarizing one for sure. Every review is either 10/10 or 1/10.
I'm firmly in the latter camp, I see the gold and white dress, and I hear Yanny. Mileage may vary.
I never really thought of Robocop as being cyberpunk either. It is though.
If you think RFK's whiplash is bad, wait until Musk finds out Trump has no more need for him either.
Deathstalker 1 & 2, although the second is far superior.
It's completely tone deaf by any standards, let alone modern ones. Watch as a gang rape is interrupted and turned into what can only be described as a "heroic sexual assault".
The second swaps out the main actor for a much funnier one, and has probably the catchiest out-of-place theme tune of any movie.
You know you're watching a terrible movie, but they breeze along and you can't help but be entertained by it.
I cannot stand 2001 A Space Odyssey
It's glacially paced, there's like 1 good scene with HAL and Dave and the rotating set is neat with him running around the edge. It's about 20 minutes of decent movie padded to an agonising two and a half hours of pretentious nonsense.
People go "oh, but it was groundbreaking at the time!" We'd had Star Trek for two years by that point. It really was not that groundbreaking.
It's fucked. But it's been fucked for a long time. You just didn't see it until the other day. It's like the foaming at the mouth from rabies. By the time you get that far, it's too late. But that animal bite months ago, and itching and fever were the warning signs, and everybody ignored it.
The PS3 nearly had a controller like that.
It was nicknamed the Banana Controller before they abandoned it.
Thing is all that crap can be stitched together by 12 year olds in Alabama instead of 12 year olds in China.
I don't think he can really comprehend a chip fabrication plant costing 10 times his entire net worth. He probably thinks that what they make in "Silicon Valley"...
