Thunderf00t shitcasts about Musk promising that by 5 years ago a Tesla could drive you from California to New York without you having to put your hands on the controls. Then he compares Musky to mega-grifter Elizabeth Holmes (Theranos).

I wonder if Holmes is looking at Musk's story and angrily asking when he's going to get his ass handed to him.

Trigger warning: 36 minutes of Thunderf00t shitcasting and repeating himself.

Yeah, he did 1 000 times more in an year, then I'll acomplish in lifetime, but he got this problem wrong so..... I'll be smug about it for an hour every single fucking week.

@progo
> AI ain't as simple as people believe.

Oh, wow.... Where did Thunderbrain get so fucking smart?

Fuck... I am a minute in, and I want to fucking punch the guy.

A plane... Seriously, how many highway datasets contain a fucking plane on the road? Absolute retard.

@LukeAlmighty you might want to watch the whole video, as insufferable as Thunderf00t is. There's quite a litany of true allegations of fraud against Musk that you might not be familiar with. Musk is a grifter. He lies about what he has now, all the time.

@progo
Man, I know he's a grifter. Obviously.

Half of his money is from stock frauds, and the second half is from government subsidies.

But.... I am still happier with that money going to the guy who is building a space program, then to some idiot, who will spend it all on a yacht, coke and whores.

@progo
BTW, can you think of something particular (or better, timestamp)

I am 6 minutes in, and my brain is melting from this idiot repeating points from 6 years ago.

@LukeAlmighty I did start with a trigger warning. Thunderf00t is for background noise. What particular thing are you looking for?

Common Sense Skeptic has much better scripted essays calling out Musk's nonsense, if that's what you want. They're long though.

@progo
The problem with Musk is the same as the problem with Trump.

They get called out for the insignificant stuff so often, that I no longer care, if they do something major.

For instance, yeah, I see, that his robotics seem like a complete pipe dream, but most people who say it cannot even acknowledge, that he's doing wonders with the spaceX, and that the entire electric car industry got pretty much started because of Musk.

@LukeAlmighty Musk's lies are significant. He demonstrated fake solar roof tiles to convince shareholders to approve Tesla buying out Solar City when it was insolvent.

@progo
For instance, I used to think, that SpaceX was "just good" and still being in progress.

Then, I looked up, how many satelites in the sky belong to Musk, compared to all satelites total.

Man, that number scared the shit out of me. But it says a ton about how serious the guy is. (also, sorry for mistakes, I'm drunk)
