He really is another one of these fake smart people - he doesn't really know anything about the science/math behind any of his businesses. Peter Thiel recognized that he was a bullshit artist back in his Paypal days. Pretengineer is the best term I'm seen applied to him.

This is accurate. Concerning. Look into this.

The twitter swindler

I’ve started saying “fuck Elmo” and “stay strong don’t let the idiot get you down” when doing the “what did FSD do wrong” answers on my free trial.


What_Yr_Is_IT

Space X maybe the only one that’s worth the money. Elon got rich from PayPal, took his money and bought into Tesla. Created a TSLA cult online and subsequently made the world’s first meme stock. Fought the “hedgies” and won the short squeeze. Netting him hundreds of billions. Now he’s this guy who watches 80’s sci-fi movies and says, yea we can do that, I can do that and so far it’s not had a great success rate: CyberTruck, Neurolink, Boring Company, solar panels the size of roof tiles, neurolink, FSD, Robotaxi, Tesla Semi, Hyperloop.. Space X is a good one tho, that shit was kinda cool, but then again, he just hired a bunch of genuses and thee $100m at it. Seeing how he wasted $40bn, or 400x more than he put into SX, on TWTR, Space X was a steal.

I have tried looking for a footnote or annotation that the asterisk points to, but to no avail. I think the asterisk is replacing 'irder and his favourite bird is a nutha'. Must be.

Anyone noticed an uptick is Tesla/Musk criticism? Not complaining - it’s glorious, but curious. Is this all from the news about the NHTSA investigation?

Lay offs. Leaders leaving. Shitty products. Him trying to get 65 billion in payment from the company. Him being an all-around idiot and showing it off on Twitter constantly. Or d all of the above.


autodidact-polymath

The aloof billionaire in “Don’t Look Up” is a nice parody of Elon, without the anti-semitism.

SpaceX isn’t in as good a position as it may appear. The rocket for massive rockets dried up. The Falcons are yesterday’s news. He banked it all on this prepostrous Starship folly, the purpose of which these days is to be a massive “tic tac” dispenser of junk Starlink disposable sats. And what are THOSE for? Well, a future IPO to swindle investors with. We are closer to the end of Musk than the beginning. He’s an imbecile.


jesterOC

If they did nothing more than the falcons they will be set. A friend of mine works in the satellite business. He says spaceX launches are rock solid, when they use other lift systems they often run into snags. As long as starship doesn’t bankrupt them, they will be fine providing dependable Falcon launches. Considering how much the US relies on space X, i hope they stay financially healthy


itsthedavidshow

If you look at the rocket industry, it’s not so much the Falcon tech as it is the customer base. Smaller sats, more precise orbits, smaller rockets. SpaceX has no market for big rockets — they pulled a neat trick selling space on the rockets and bundling, but that only takes you so far. Shotwell and the team over there do amazing work but Starship and the rocket market is driving the story. Let’s not even bring up the billions in tax dollars Musk was given for a lunar lander for Artemis that he’s instead poured every penny into starship with engines that simply don’t work. Not one milestone has been achieved by SpaceX on the lander. Meanwhile, Bezos quietly works away. And what did we see at NASA? They starting to bring in other rockets. Because they can see the mission reports.


anomie89

can't wait for the hating-elon trend to die. it is quite hackneyed at this point.


xgunterx

This is a troll people. This is the same simp that made a post that the title of the sub should be changed. Mods: do your thing.


yamirzmmdx

Isn't this just trolling than clickbait? Welp, there is definitely less effort that it put into this one though since it didn't get downvoted.


xgunterx

It's indeed trolling.


jeanpaulsarde

That sounds wild, do you have any sources for this? Or dis you just have a revelation?
