People very rarely survive significant burns. I know the article says 50/50, but he is essentially dead. The infection risk is just too high.

How would you like this installed in your workplace? How about ankle monitors that detect if you’re jaywalking? What about if your car had a sensor that automatically informed law enforcement if you were speeding. What if your ISP would shut off anytime you watched a video with copyright without permission.

See how bullshit “if you’re doing nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide” is?

People like to pretend that karma is somehow real. It’s not. In real life, the bad guys win and live long and happy lives.

You’re getting downvoted because people don’t like to have their poor critical thinking skills called out. They’d rather ignorantly eat up whatever BS is served to them.

He is not. He is the richest reported man. There are families that do not publicly report their net worth. There are very likely trillionaires out there. Putin, for example.

I make meme:

Person: Muskie dum?

Elon: No.

Person: Muskie dum dum?

Elon: yes.

The memes know

When are they finally going to make a knife that doesn’t cackle with the laughter of those who’ve wronged me when I use it?

You seem to have conflated blockchain technology with cryptocurrency. Most cryptocurrencies use blockchain technology, but that’s not it’s only use case. Literally every problem you have listed relates to crypto and not blockchain itself. Blockchain is just a ledger of transactions. A private company using it to say, keep track of their inventory, or track their payments, or use it for document control, can implement it however they want.

Truly wonderful place.

Doubt.

EDIT: Golly gee, how could I possibly dismiss the wonder of the swamp city filled with mosquitoes, crumbling infrastructure, poverty, and racism? Truly a magical place that anyone would be lucky to visit /s

I will belt that song in the car, never fails to brighten my day.

YouTube music has actually been pretty great, although I hear some people have issues with it’s algorithm. I got grandfathered in back when Google Music shut down and I honestly like it more than the old GM app at this point. Plus, you get YouTube Premium for free with it.

Crunchy peanut butter and banana sandwich. Bonus if you add honey.

Where to? Seriously, where to? I can’t think of a single other country it would be feasible to move to.

You know what else killed a good amount of monkeys for their tests? Pretty much every single Class 3 medical device out there. Neuralink didn’t do anything far outside the ordinary with their tests, they just got a lot of media attention because “Elon bad”.

Medical device testing goes through animal trials before human ones. Those trials use monkeys. Those monkeys often die. The only unusual thing about Neuralink’s tests is a lot of people pretending like they suddenly give a shit.

You were the one who made the comparison.

Right? I kept hearing this claim so I finally watched Hidden Fortress and now it pisses me off at how much of a huge fucking stretch has to be made. “Oh, two comic relief buddy characters in an otherwise mostly serious film? Must be a Hidden Fortress ripoff!”

Fuck off. You might as well say they’re similar because both movies use moving pictures and sound to tell a story.

AKA, an overdose when it happens to a rich white woman.

For 99% of applications, a corded electric blower with an extension cord is far superior than every other option.
