  Would it kill you to google? Image It wouldn’t surprise me if the numbers were similar (afterall, most homeless are not perennially so), but still.

  And that’s just geometric distance! Measured Arithmetically, everyone poorer than Warren Buffet is closer to being homeless than they are to elon musk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fixed that for you⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That would be to get to a $ 1 million, but musk would cease to be a billionaire at $ 999.99 million that’s the “close” side of millionaire to him. 1/780000th would be to get into the region of a normal upper-middle class American.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fixed that for you⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
  • US homeless population: 770,000
  • US millionaire population: 6.9 million

  Stats from statista, and scrutinisable but ballpark accurate. Is 770,000 much too high? yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fixed that for you⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No but the original is true as well, and is better at making the point you want to make.

  • If you have a net worth of $10k, you’re $990k to go (or a 100 x multiple) to one million.

  • To be a millionaire again, Musk would need to be worth $778.01 billion less or worth 1/780th what he is right now.

  The original message: “What many people only ever dream of achieving is so far beneath the ultra-rich it would be laughable if not for the tragedy”

  Your message: “Ordinary people are poorer than elon musk” (Duh)

  only 15 of 56 commonwealth members have king charles as head of state, so it would be kinda werid and against the spirit of things to waive it out of royalist sympathy. You could fly the Royal Standard, but I’m pretty sure that’s a hangin’ if you aren’t actually in the presence of the king. Image But given how many of them also believe that the royal family is part of multicultural conspiracy to replace the English with bug-eating foreigners, various interregunum flags would mage sense too.

  If Soong had designed data with the intent to make his creator rich and powerful beyond any sanity or measure. (Instead of being a chill nerd) there’s no doubt in my mind startrek would be a lot less utopian.

  Also starfleet have had that level of computational complexity for 2 or 3 centuries and never actually managed to create a superintelligent AI that was a match for human pluck and ingenuity, so an AI takeover probably isn’t a possibility in that Universe. (Same goes (I think) for all the millenia old Alien societies).

  Best way of delivering exposition in a long while. Really like the eggs.
