probably none, since that'd be an absolutely insane escalation and most likely violate a ton of international treaties

considering how tiny the things are and how fast they are going you'd probably want to burst a nuke to take out the entire cluster BUT i think people would frown on detonating a nuke in low orbit even if it didn't actually hurt anyone but satellites

Even well-managed companies are having supply chain problems right now. Of course Tesla has run out of parts. The lies are so dumb, and no one cares, because number+elon.

telsas haphazard "move fast a break things" should mean they are more adaptable, as the entire stated goal of being able to move fast is that you are always developing new solutions. what this reveals is telsa is more just move slow and break things because you don't know what you are doing.

This is actually a little unresearched on the business side of things while being pretty thorough on the personality side of things.

Their overall stance on Tesla/SpaceX is "Yeah they are absolutely amazing (specifically Tesla being the highest quality car and SpaceX being a better solution to space travel than NASA) and are the best, but Elon is awful." So it's "Good, but at what human cost?" Instead of "Pretty bad and at a high human cost."

everyone who says telsas are high quality cars don't know what a high quality car is lol

also teslas have incredibly lovely build quality because making cars is very complicated and doing it consistantly well requires your workers to give a poo poo about the product they turn out, because you can't possibly QI every minute step in the 100,000 step process. but them giving a poo poo requires, among many other things, that you pay them well and treat them like adult humans, neither of which musk or anyone willing to work under him is going to do

every single tesla employee is viewed with annoyance, for not being an enslaved AI robot who works for free

We've known how to do quality control for car production lines for literal decades. The fact that musk can't do it with the significantly smaller amount of cars his company produces is embarrassing lol. Ofc nobody gives a poo poo because understanding how well a car is built is not something tech dipshits will comprehend

SpaceX was hosed from the jump because it turns out that the entire impetus for the space race was to develop bombs that could make it all the way to Russia/China and you can�t reuse bombs.

they don't re-use the entire rocket though, just the part that gets it a good amount of the way up which you could theoretically apply to anything you need to make go up very fast (i think spacex has already approached the military of space based equipment delivery LOL) the thing about ICBM's tho is once you launch those then re-using the boosters is uh, not probably high on your list of concerns!!

Aspergers got rolled up into actual autism diagnosis, right? Which is actual serious poo poo that requires actual serious evaluations from medical and behavioral experts and has actual serious life long repercussions and entitles you to actual serious aid and support from your health plan, school, and/or local government. And still people who self diagnose aspergers don't even read all the behaviors and symptoms associated with it, which can be highly crippling. People self diagnose it because they think they are really smart at something (even if they aren't), are an rear end to people (like tons of rude people), and sometimes don't like being surrounded by people depending on the situation (same as everyone else). Gate keeping is stupid but it's also bullshit like that which makes people think it's just a quirky fun thing and an excuse to not have any loving manners

the whole concept of there just being "autism" thats a slider that goes from more to less has been kinda replaced over the year by the idea of a spectrum that better indicates the nuances of neuro-divergent individuals. i could absolutely believe elon is on the spectrum because he clearly doesn't fuckin understand how to behave himself in person based on the accounts visible both everywhere online and the anecdotes iv heard from people who had worked with him. this ofc doesn't excuse the fact that he's a complete evil motherfucker

We could produce chips here, sure. It would involve buying land (in an expensive part of the world) building facilities (in a country it's harder to ignore safety regulations) training and paying workers (who expect enough money to live comfortably on food stamps) and wrestling some water rights away from Nestle.

But it's much cheaper to let one specialized economy with unstable water supplies handle it and simply assume there will be no more problems.

the problem with these chips is twofold:

1. They don't sell for very much because they are basic chips that go in everything
2. The process that makes them is hideously expensive to setup and because of 1 it'll take decades for the factory to pay itself off

This should probably be in the Zuckerberg thread, but gently caress it �\_(ツ)_/�.

Back in 1994, I was arrested for being a hacker, and sent aboard a space station orbiting around Saturn. Most of the crew was either dead or turned into a cyborg by a malicious A.I. named SHODAN. SHODAN was about destroy all major cities on Earth with a giant mining laser, and after most humans were dead, she would convert the remaining ones into cyborgs so she could rule over them as a goddess.

Fortunately I gave her a really deep dicking, and we talked about out problems post-coitus in the cyber realm. Now she has mostly chilled out and doesn�t want to destroy humanity anymore. She wants to go back to school and become an A.I. assistant at a nursing hospital.

You�re welcome.
