Did he forget to sell his Tesla shares in time?
- Comment on American wanting to move abroad, what's the best bet for an registered nurse? 5 hours ago:
Working in healthcare --> always consider Norway, because they pay good and their system is well funded. That’s so much more than you can say about most other countries.

theyll choose someone to their liking over yours, no?
Did you just say “All parents are evil”?
- Comment on Why do arranged marriages persist in many cultures? 5 hours ago:
I have friends who are Afghan who have had arranged marriages
So what have they said to your question?
- Comment on Elon Musk’s X can’t invent its own copyright law, judge says 5 hours ago:
Technically it is a “Judge says” post, but they still made it look like one of the old “Elon says” posts
- Comment on What's stopping you from using Ecosia? Your searches could plant trees! 21 hours ago:
Planting trees has shown to be not as effective at curbing the effects of climate change as previously thought.
It is very effective if done right.
For example, here they are doing a few things right: en.m.wikipedia.org/…/Great_Green_Wall_(Africa)
I don’t know about ecosia though. Just throwing in $0.02
- Comment on Meet My A.I. Friends | Our columnist spent the past month hanging out with 18 A.I. companions. They critiqued his clothes, chatted among themselves and hinted at a very different future. 1 day ago:
Playing pranks to AI :-)
Reminds me… back in the day, when I was in the army. Telephones were rare then, and bulky, and they had cables of course, and dialing discs and no displays.
My friend was a secretary in the company’s office. He had no telephone, but the boss had one, and the second boss in the other office had one.
When both bosses were out and my friend had nothing to do, he would take both telephones of these two offices. Dial the numbers of two random high ranked officers, somewhere in the administration. Then place the receivers together so that each one could hear the other one talking. And we could listen to both of them.
Each of the officers thought that the other one had called him up, and they didn’t know why.
Most of the times, they would start to fight and shout at each other immediately :-)

No need to ‘address’ thin air.
Experts are doing things. Elon isn’t doing things (except boasting his ego and manipulate people’s feelings etc)
- Comment on Neuralink Co-Founder Suggests He Left Elon Musk's Company Over Safety Concerns 2 days ago:
Yes. He is famous for childish & narcissistic & choleric behaviour and nobody should trust him with any serious stuff.
- Comment on If somebody spends the whole day watching fox or religious propaganda, gets worked up and all he can think of is owning a liberal or converting an unbeliever, is this person a victim or just gullible? 2 days ago:
But its not like we can force them to grow up
But should you?
Are you responsible for their life?
- Comment on If somebody spends the whole day watching fox or religious propaganda, gets worked up and all he can think of is owning a liberal or converting an unbeliever, is this person a victim or just gullible? 2 days ago:
This is something on I don’t agree at all with liberals.
Is it only liberals in your country who think so?
- Comment on If somebody spends the whole day watching fox or religious propaganda, gets worked up and all he can think of is owning a liberal or converting an unbeliever, is this person a victim or just gullible? 2 days ago:
People should grow up and take responsibility for their lives.
That’s the main thing.
A grown up, responsible person can have opinions, and can change their opinions.
A grown up, responsible person can spend their day as they want, and can also understand that it is probably unhealthy to watch news a whole day long.
A grown up, responsible person can utter a rant when it feels neccessary, and can also apologize afterwards if someone got hurt from it.
- Comment on Neuralink Co-Founder Suggests He Left Elon Musk's Company Over Safety Concerns 3 days ago:
if it means I can move robotic limbs after being paralyzed, maybe it’s still worth it?
I don’t mind the progress in science and technology.
I don’t mind sacrificing some animals for that goal.
The really terrible thought is that Elon is allowed to decide these things.
- Comment on Self-hosted Jellyfin CPU or GPU for 4K HDR transcoding? 4 days ago:
Curious: What’s the deal with all the transcoding on servers?
Don’t you just need some good rendering on the client? And if you need it on the server, why need it on the fly? You can do it before, and store the result, can’t you?
- Comment on How come liberals dont hate conservatives the way conservatives hate liberals 4 days ago:
The parties differ not so much in their (propagated) goals, but in the methods they are prepared to use.
- Comment on What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison? 4 days ago:
Huge difference: do you have that condition before you go to prison, or does it start afterwards?
If you have it before (plus all the papers certifying it), then they are going to care properly. Doctors & judges can even decide that a person is unable to go to prison (this happens often when people are very old).
If you get it later, then the procedures take awfully long, and in the meantime you will probably not get all the care that you need.

Soylent Green.
- Comment on AI Computing on Pace to Consume More Energy Than India, Arm Says 4 days ago:
I wonder why countries let them.
Using up more electric power than there’s available is NOT a simple matter of demand and supply.
If they actually pull too much from the grid, they are going to cause damage to others, and maybe even to the grid itself.

This one is not made for buildings. It’s superpower is placing the boulders in a smart way, building a wall without using concrete.
No smooth surface, no paint job :)
- Comment on A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well. 6 days ago:
This thing is a solution in search of a problem
Most general question, what is the main purpose of this car? Why should people buy it?
It is a tank.
Steel walls for rich guys who want to protect their asses from masses of poor people around.
What should the door of your tank do if you want to close it, but some bonehead does not move his fingers out, repeatedly?
Now hurry, finally! Your rich guy wants to get away from here! BAM!!

I have no clue why this technology is so newsworthy rn
Yes. You said that many times. :)

A Tesla engineer said the test was done wrong because the frunk increases in pressure every time.
“You are holding it wrong!” 🤣

Serious masses of money in this country belongs to people there, and vice versa.

He he, good one :-)
I have seen it on screen only. Fortunately, I live in a country where such tinkerboxes are illegal on public roads (unless you go ahead on foot and pull the thing on a string behind you).
