Comment on Engineer at Elon Musk's xAI Departs After Spilling the Beans in Podcast Interview
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 17 hours agoHe bought twitter for 43 billion dollars on a goof. To him a “pile of cash” is like 3 pennies to you.
And I’m not saying this to defend him. I’m just saying that charging him money isn’t the “gotcha!” that you think it is.

It's not a gotcha. It's a decent cash flow to the city if he wants to se the real estate - and that's before they tax him, and sue him again if he evades,

I hear you, but I would imagine that Musk would retaliate by counter-suing the city and/or state, if for no other reason than spite. And would drag the whole thing out for at least as long as the AI infatuation lasts before abandoning the building for officials to deal with.
A single citizen with a drone and a bunch of glass bottles full of petrol dropped onto the generators, however, would shut down operations immediately.

Just remember your opsec. If/when (assume when) someone shoots the molotov bot down, make sure it doesn't have a serial number that can be tied to you, or any data connection in its logs that connects to you. Don't use your phone or any device you can't immediately destroy (i.e. do not be tracked by the MAC either) to connect to it.
My suggestion, buy a cheap laptop from a pawnshop/cash converters type place, connect to the drone only from a Starbucks or McD's. When you make the drop, either plunge the drone down into the fire, or get it to a safe location away from you that you'll be able to get to without being tracked. Dismantle the laptop as much as possible, ditch all radios into public trash cans (preferably within an hour of normal pickup).
