I can see Tesla hitting 100 again next year
Elon Musk | Doer of things on X and sad little man
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.
It’s truly laughable to try and claim that Tesla stocks are not connected to Musk’s antics.
Exactly this, it's absolutely baffling and so disingenuous. Terraforming Mars for human habitation on the surface is essentially impossible and there are far better candidates in the solar system for the job.
More like infinitely more easier to survive than Mars, like NotworkSte said Mars just will never be able to retain a thick, breathable atmosphere. Especially considering you are never going to re-ingite the core to create a magnetosphere to prevent solar winds stripping the atmosphere (again). It requires the invention of technologies that we haven't even perceived yet so it's really just a total non-starter outside of a base a-la The Martian.
The technology exists now to start the process of terraforming Venus, if that were a popular goal.
I may be entirely off base here as I have no scientific background or expertise whatsoever, but it's always seemed to me that the scientific challenge of making human life on earth sustainable must be easier than trying to terraform a dead planet. I've heard plenty of reasonable skepticism re: renewable energy sources and I buy that it's a massive challenge. It just doesn't seem as massive a challenge as flying everyone to Mars and growing a garden there.
It's massively easier, because literally all we have to do on this planet is stop being dickheads. We don't even have to go direct to renewable energies, nuclear is the greenest and cleanest form of energy going and could solve our issues on a temporary basis until renewable and potentially fusion a viable for mass use.
Well that sure seems like a massive obstacle.
Never mind - colonizing Mars seems viable now.
Ocasio is not going to sh*g him with this booooring Twitter facade, he really needs to go to Mars in person. 
I watched a docu-drama called The Core from circa 2003 about how to re-start Earth's core if it ever shut down. I'm sure we could adapt the technology. Just need to get hold of some "unobtainium" to get started.
Wtf did I just read?
A press release from Twitter written by Elon?
There are a lot of good intention. Connecting people in a global townsquare is great. Relying on tech companies to moderate content may not be such a great idea. Having people with diverse views coming together to discuss issues and solving problems is great. I wish that too.
But there is not what is happening at twitter right? And Musk is not doing that for some altruistic reasons. Moderating hate speech is not muzzling free speech. Not unlike this very forum that you post in? Try insulting someone and you get a warning but you are free to offer whatever opinion you want as long it is not fake news or harmful. It just commonsense right?
Free speech is not an excuse to propagate falsehood. Rather than engagement, too much disinformation results in disengagement which is what is happening now. Can I interest you in the hypernormalization thread in the forum?
How do you feel about Elon deleting accounts of those that share the video of him being booed?
Do you think people are free to just flagrantly say dangerous and obviously scientifically wrong things without any pushback or protection for the reader?
Humans will never live on Mars in large numbers. Anyone who thinks so, have seen too many sci-fi movies, and people that advocate for spending resources towards that goal rather than ensuring the habitability of Earth are plain stupid.
Wait til he hears about the Steamdeck!
His prologned meltdown will be one for the history books.
Is this big news? Teslas have been playing GTA for ages.
No clue. I'm shocked at the absurdity of being able to play video games on an in-dash video screen.
What else would you do while your Tesla careers down the highway at 100mph, mowing down all in its path using autopilot?
I do my very best to ignore everything to do with him etc but he has the most divorced Dad 'and she's taken the kids' energy I've ever seen.
To kill time at superchargers
@Elonjet now suspended - free speech!
True pain is when a billionaire has to disclose when his private jet lands in a new airport.
I don't like that tweet because I'd disagree its "beautiful" to see a lot of normal investors I know lose money, but the rest of it is accurate and something I myself have called out on stock forums since 2017.
A stock that's pushed because of a cult personality is one you do NOT want to mess with. It's overvalued to the moon. It's called a meme stock for a reason.
Yeah but Tesla stock is down 61%
Compared to Google: ~30%. Still I agree with you, it has nothing to do with his antic yet
Had no idea we've been personal safety risking so many footballers over the years here on the caf
Good post! I hope he succeeds. But, his problem is that he wants to make Twitter a free speech platform but he also needs to make it a profitable business for it to be around long term.
I have to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you haven't seen any of the stuff Musk has been doing or saying since buying Twitter.
And also his private account
But not his Bezos plane tracking account
Your mistake is equating Twitter to society. It isn't. Society is outside, and people who are denied access to a private service for disregarding their rules are free to go say whatever they want in society.

It is disgusting that he is doing the opposite of what he said just a month ago. Is it known if he has any diagnosed psychiatric condition, like bipolar or something?
