Probably because Elon said it's better. Same reason some people own a cybertruck

They wouldn't have had to worry about bears or wolves if they had driven them both to extinction like many parts of the world

It's not just the scrolling, the posting side too. They all randomly boost one of your posts so suddenly tons of feedback (especially noticable when I tried threads) and then you try to get that back again. The uncertainty keeps you at it

I remember they successfully got Google out of a military contract in the first admin (and briefly vilified by the right for that). that's not going to work now. Workers have a lot less power and the CEO is buddies with Trump

This is just the first step eventually we will be just like the Culture novels that Elon skimmed through the Wikipedia summaries of.

We are slightly delayed on the first Mars trips timelines that were supposed to have happened already but the overall timeline of being all over the universe at some point in the future is still perfectly on track.

This is an economic opportunity in the quintillions you would be stupid not to give Elon billions to be a part owner. Keep in mind like in all of his businesses no one else could ever do this, there is 0 competition only what his companies do matter and if you don't believe that GFY

They were rightfully been calling out the grift at Tesla. On the SpaceX front they've been his biggest cheerleader (even dismissing other stories like the sexual harrassment)

Where do people find this optimism? I reckon when the software jobs fall everything else will follow shortly too. That's just the first target because it's what we know and the manual stuff is a little harder for now. The "good news" is everyone might be in the same boat so the system will have to adapt,

Nothing will happen. He got off with nothing for directly saying from his own account "Funding secured" on Twitter in a much less nakedly corrupt environment

I listened to the call:

The capabilities will be "orders of magnitude" and "end of this year." The timeline is "there is no competition outside of China".

They are more amazing every quarter and so is Tesla's ability to rapidly produce them in the future.

I really love this series, probably my favorite of his stuff along with Cage of Souls. I got a little bored with the first one but glad I kept on, the second and third were amazing.

I almost like everything he writes which is something because there's a ton of it and it's all over the place. Only ones I've DNFd are the Shards of Earth which is weird because I normally like space opera.

Trump thinks lowering the interest rates means market goes up before election. That's all there is to it everyone knows it's not about stability and jobs

Overall he is very unpopular. There are a few far right parties that love him but they are outnumbered.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but they are, in fact, extremely unpopular in EU

There's some GOP legislators it probably makes quietly uncomfortable to see ICE blatantly murdering people on their watch, they could sleep easier with Insurrection Act

The poor hero is recovering at the hospital right now after being run over according to the president. He may or may not get off by the courts, but he will be feted by MAGA. If he's removed from ICE it'll be to go on a media tour.

The last couple tech bubbles have made extremely dumb people able to have positions of power they would never have been able to have before the random VC/crypto windfalls to asocial people

Used to be where you could assume CEOs were at least probably intelligent if not moral. Now half of these big tech companies are run by extremely self confident clowns.

This has been true until recently w/BYD growth. It's definitely more than the top legacy ones combined, including those selling many times more cars, and unlike most of them it's shrinking
