Elon didn't actually co-create Paypal. He merged his company with Confinity which had already built the same functionality he built - they merged caused they were both burning too much cash. If anything he nearly ran Paypal into the ground with his quest to turn it into X.com - he was fired from Paypal during an emergency board meeting while he was in the air.

I’m Paris Marx, and this is Disconnect.

For the past seven years, I’ve been calling out the tech industry, its snake-oil billionaires, and the harmful impacts it hides behind its grand promises. I’ve been a critical voice on a sector that too often gets a pass by distracting us with futures that never arrive. But it’s not always easy to get those perspectives published by media have tended to praise Silicon Valley far more than call it out.

With Disconnect, I’m giving another take on the tech industry — a critical perspective that’s too hard to find among mainstream sources. It’s one that isn’t afraid to reject what the tech industry is trying to sell us. I hope you’ll join me!
So for 7 years this guy has basically made zero contributions to the world other than critical journalism.

I dislike musk because my parents paid 10k times 2 for full self driving. Where is it elon? You said people would be able to drive from L.A. to New York with out touching the wheel. What about the robotaxi's? How come Tesla's owners are not making the owners money like you said they would? What about the rockets you said could fly people half way around the world in only a couple of hours. lets not forget the hyperloop. Finally where is my cyber truck. I have been waiting years for it.

He is full of mostly shit.

Is your parents using the FSD beta? I use it almost on a daily basis.

Yeah yeah... I'm an Elon fan boi or whatever... but the last few updates are getting really good. So good that I think we are finally getting there.

Some of the turns that used to be a struggle for older FSD versions, the new versions do them with confidence and little to no hesitation.

I don't need "the media" to form opinions. You can watch the way he behaves and just not be a billionaire bootlicker to do so.
He didn't help create paypal, you just want to celebrate him to "stick it to the left"
Why would I give a fuck about some guy launching rockets? What does that do for me or anyone else?

Parents have all the updates. It has gotten a lot better but it's still a ways off from what he promised we would have years ago.

I'd say fanboy is an understatement.

If I'm choosing between a white nationalist who openly promotes white nationalists and Zuck I'll take Zuck.

All you gotta do to look good is compare yourself to a way bigger piece of shit.

Badhobz 08-07-2023 10:24 AM

Looks like it's happening.

Badhobz 08-11-2023 09:11 PM

This is the equivalent of a school yard fight at the flag pole.

Fight fight fight. Gooooo neeeerrrrdsssss

mikemhg 08-12-2023 11:19 AM

It won't happen :lol

If it does, we're in the peak idiocy of modern society.

2 billionaire nerds who have way more power than any individual should have, having a slap and grab match for the lulz?

This world is retarded.

N.V.M. 08-12-2023 02:43 PM

damn it. Elon permanently suspended me. I guess I don't care about this thread anymore

I'm just hoping they both die but somehow Elon dies more painfully.

Badhobz 08-13-2023 01:57 PM

Kinda hoping zuck kicks Elon in the nuts, then slips on elons puke, and breaks his neck.

The world would be a better place afterwards
