Fuck Elon Musk (Part 2)

And two of them are convicted felons who ran afoul of the SEC. (And I’m not sure about Stallone but the rest of them surely deserve to be convicted of something.)

Such an awesome way to tell him to go fuck himself

Elon Musk accused Jeff Bezos’ ex-wife MacKenzie Scott of destroying Western civilization with her philanthropy. Then she quietly doubled her donations.

But is Elon REALLY a garbage human? /s

Uh huh sure. By the way, she was able to do this WITHOUT a brain implant

In the ongoing Braingate clinical trials which began in 2004, we are hoping to find a way to allow people with tetraplegia, whether it results from stroke, injury, or neurodegenerative disease (eg, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [ALS]) to control an external device simply by thinking about moving their own hand. Ultimately, we would like to develop the ability for intuitive rapid control of an external device by thought.

Top tier journalism from Insider Paper, credulously echoing Elmo’s easily-disputed claims about Neuralink’s “achievements”.

I guess I shouldn’t be terribly surprised, given that their mission statement is (and I quote, sic):

The Neuralink test subject / Guinea pig in the video called this “life changing” but he looks like someone who would get very minimal benefit from being able to move a mouse with his mind, even if the system worked flawlessly. He seemed to have good muscle control in his head and neck, so there are already a variety of other, far less invasive options to control a mouse or other simple interfaces.

There have been relatively affordable, commercially available eye-tracking devices for decades that are available to people with ALS or similar conditions, which will work for anyone who retains the ability to move their eyes. My Father-in-law had ALS and used a Windows computer tablet with a little camera and infrared emitter attachment back in 2007, and these days I think that even a standard iPhone can probably track your eyes with the right app.

Maybe someone with locked-in syndrome could benefit from an implant like this, but if they can’t move their eyes it’s also unlikely that they’d be able to follow the movement of a cursor on a screen.

I forgot that dude sniffed Tate’s ass.

Musk said he thinks of X as the “player versus player platform,” using a term for video games that pit players against one another, typically in fights to the pixelated death. While he wasn’t particularly clear about what he meant by likening X to a death match, he did bring it up in the context of the occasional late-night posts in which he appears to be spoiling for an argument.

Plenty of trans people have children.

I’m guessing he’s really more concerned about white people having kids.

“I was like, OK, you don’t hate trans people, you hate woke culture.”

Every now and then Grimes likes to remind us that she’s awful too. :roll_eyes:

But sure, obviously everybody needs to have kids for civilization to survive. I mean, could you imagine a species where most individuals didn’t bother with reproducing, but instead…I don’t know, built homes and farmed food and generally helped provide for the others? Would it even manage to survive? You certainly can’t imagine them becoming some of the most successful living things on the damn planet like that.

It also occurs to me that “the only thing we are on earth for is to reproduce” was something Musk’s father said as an explanation for having children with his stepdaughter. :nauseated_face:

His obsession with “the continuance of civilization” is one of the things about him I just don’t get. As long as there are groups of people living on Earth (and, for better or worse, Earth isn’t getting rid of us no matter how much it tries) civilization will exist. Let it go, dude.

(ETA: Yep, I know he actually means white people.)

When we get attacked by an unstoppable killbot with a preset limit of 8099 million, we’re going to be sorry there weren’t just a few more people pumping out babies.

Yeah, for real… humanity isn’t under threat… except of course, from ourselves and people like Musk are just trying to accelerate threats to get rid of the people HE doesn’t like…
