What a shitty opinion to respond to, too: King Bazinga only executive meddles with rockets and electric cars and he has to have keys jangled at him to mitigate more bad ideas going into the works.

      It sucks when some of his detractors needlessly concede bullshit to him like him inventing fucking anything. The closest thing he did to that was importing his “perfect because a late 80s computer game said so” shitty vehicle design to bring the ZYBERTRUKKK to sputtering, janky life.

  • You did not figure out rocket science. For Christ’s sake, you aren’t even in charge of your fucking company. You made a single good decision, which was to put Gwyneth Shotwell in charge. You aren’t even allowed in the control room for launches, they make you stand outside. Also, Neuralink famously doesn’t work.

    I don’t trust like that. Expertise in one area (even if he had expertise in one area) does not automatically translate to others.

      That should be the default way of thinking but decades of bazinga propaganda about “eccentric geniuses” is taking its toll. not-immune-to-propaganda

        It’s weird because I mean, I’ve had an experience while job hunting where a skill set I thought would transfer fairly well didn’t. I can’t imagine I’m too unusual in that regard. (Proficiency with circuits in computers and small electronics not scaling up well to understanding residential scale tv wiring)

    I’m so happy that after months of unending suffering through exposure to US elections, I will finally get to see either libs and Kkklanmala or chuds and Kkking Bazinga lose their fucking minds
