I remember when Ford blocked Tesla from using the name "Model E" and elon was visibly upset, like the mental 6 year old he is, that the best he could do was S3XY. I chuckle about that pretty much every time I see a model 3.

He is certainly stuck in a teenage mindset. Like trump wanting Greenland because he didn't get his Nobel peace prize.

Seems to be a billionaire trait of being a wounded child and never getting over it.

In the case of Greenland, I suspect Miller and Thiel want it for their own purposes and Trump is so far gone they're just telling him something that will stick in his demented brain.

This is absolutely correct. Billionaires stroking the ego of a fucking narcissistic racist dipshit president to amass more is definitely going on.

Miller probably wants to build a gulag system with non-citizen and, let’s face it, probably a sprinkling of black and brown citizens as well, to do some slave labor resource extraction. Somebody read the One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and took it as a handbook and not a warning.

People stop growing once they gain enough power or ability to avoid it. Elon seems to really resonate with the people who don't have friends and live in their parents' basement because both have an adulthood defined by not needing to mature as an adult and not having the internal drive to do it anyways. Nobody can make him feel ashamed for acting like an 18 year old because even if we shame him he can look at his wealth and justify why he's better than us.

is.. that why they are named that?!?!?

The model s, the model 3, the model x, the model y.... REALLY!>!>

Bishma 27 points 9 months ago

It is at least why the model Y and the model 3 got their names. I think the model S was named by Tesla's founders and the X may be just because musk has been obsessed with naming things that since PayPal (if not before).

The 3 was supposed to be an E but but Ford owned the naming rights.

But the goal was to make.. the naming was supposed to spell out SEXY... that's so embarrassing.

This is almost worse than people with Monster Energy logos on their chest. Almost.

I cannot fathom why anyone would want to put corporate slop on their body. What a way to show everyone around you that you lack any sort of clue.

The tattoos are of the Tesla logo, which is owned by Elon "does nazi salutes during his speech at the podium during a presidential inauguration" Musk.

Sorry, I thought they meant the monster energy company also had a nazi. That is my bad, I apologise.

About ten years ago I was going to get that one One Piece tattoo with a very close friend because we had bonded over the show and wanted to be close for life. It was a simple “X” on the forearm.

He kept laughing it off when I tried to actually coordinate getting it done, then one day he showed up and had it done alone because “he didn’t think I would do it”. Clearly didn’t want me to follow suit either.

It’s probably for the best because now it would make people think I simp for twitter and Musk. Also that guy turned out to be a real piece of shit and we no longer speak.

Xorg is a display manager; emacs is the best window manager, email client, irc client, web browser, tetris implementation, elisp runtime environment/dev environment... it might edit text too but idk.

when done right it is, bolt straight to the brain killing them instantly.

like come the fuck on, why would you complain about the slaughtering process rather than the abjectly miserable conditions the animals are kept in? They spend their entire lives in agony, and you think the moment they're finally granted the mercy of death is the problem?

No, this stinks of either stroking your own ego or outright being astroturfing.

Worse. Swastikas were legitimately used by some people. It may be acceptable for a buddhist living under a rock to tattoo a swastika

No one's that ignorant. I think you'd be surprised not about how people outside of Europe and the Americas just don't care, which is fair enough I suppose, but how often Indians in particular will just straight up praise Hitler.
