@CedarMr53241@niccruzpatane Amazing how ignorant people like you are so confidently foolish. The story is exactly the opposite of what you say. I have a 13 year old Canadian Model S with 95% of the original range. An ICE vehicle with this many kms would either be trashed or have 80% of its original power.
@RemoCan62@JamesonCanada@niccruzpatane Less than 1% of EVs have battery failures and most of those were GM’s recall. Contrast that to some makes/models of ICE vehicles that have engine failures as high as 25% (Kia Theta II), 15% for VW/Audi TFSI, 10% for Ford EcoBoost, etc! Ground yourself in truth, not memes.
Scam Altman and Greg Stockman stole a charity. Full stop.
Greg got tens of billions of stock for himself and Scam got dozens of OpenAI side deals with a piece of the action for himself, Y Combinator style. After this lawsuit, Scam will also be awarded tens of billions in stock directly.
The fundamental question is simply this:
Do you want to set legal precedent in the United States that it is ok to loot a charity? If so, you undermine all charitable giving in the United States forever.
I could have started OpenAI as a for-profit corporation. Instead, I started it, funded it, recruited critical talent and taught them everything I know about how to make a startup successful FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD.
Then they stole the charity.
@elonmusk Cheap energy was hailed as the end of modern labor and even community (Amish). We reinvented ourselves and changed our values such that we still had to work. I think we can do it far better than we’re doing, but thinking humans won’t barter anymore because of robots is naive.
Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink?
Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new rules (called B-BBEE) to help Black people get a fair share of business. The idea was good – like a big helping hand. But now? For companies like Starlink to sell fast internet, they MUST give away 30% of their business to Black partners. Just because of skin color.
Elon Musk was born in South Africa. He left as a teen to chase big dreams. Today, his company SpaceX wants to bring Starlink – super fast satellite internet – to South Africa. But the rules say no unless they give up part of the company. Elon said it right: “Starlink is not allowed because I’m not Black.”
SpaceX promised to spend about $30 million (that’s 500 million rand!) to give FREE high-speed internet to 5,000 rural schools. That helps over 2.4 MILLION kids every year learn better, get jobs later, and have a brighter future. Real help for the people who need it most!
Starlink already works in about 24 other African countries. Villages there now have internet for school, doctors, and business. South Africa���s villages are missing out because of these racist rules.
Elon isn’t asking for special favors. He just wants fair play so Starlink can connect everyone fast. Internet = education, jobs, hope.
Why hold back millions of kids over rules that pick by race and color?
The left is getting in an uproar over Jimmy Kimmel being suspended....roll that beautiful bean footage of him celebrating Tucker Carlson being terminated.
@OIIIEGA@GarbageHuman24 Couldn’t have said it better myself. I suppose what can we expect when general dishonesty is so ramped, egos at all time highs, no stakes to post online, and maximum attention and positive feedback by people in one’s respective hate group. What a time.
@squawksquare I appreciate your insights most of the time, but shorting a company is unethical, especially if it’s a good company like Tesla. I hope you can find a better way and invest in people trying to do good rather than betting against them. Don’t slowly lose your humanity.
BREAKING NEWS: Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, 31, has died after being shot at an event in Utah. An appalling assault on free speech and democracy. Charlie always welcomed debate, with anyone. This is disgusting, and heart-breaking.
RIP Charlie. 🙏
