Crazy that shareholders voted to keep him with absurd pay package. Tesla would do better without him. Also, while Grok 4.1 is decent at coding, I would never pay for MechaHitler or for a robot it controls. Like Tesla today, there will be plenty alternatives of comparable value.


Also, there’s no way that their next generation AI chips will come in at lower price per TFLOPS/ram than those made a couple of months ago. Absurdly, NVidia and US datacenter partners have record inventory levels for undeployed AI chips. A crash in chip/memory prices seems more likely than this scenario playing out.

Adaptation was not defined. It could mean have the world’s rich accomodate the world’s poor, but our failure point has been poltiically that we could not sacrifice just the rich oil company’s extortionist profit power to reduce our energy costs in addition to future sustainability expenses/compromises. How can that broader failure of direct immediate social benefit translate into future political support for social sacrifice for humanist purposes.
A side note, the only policy that was ever going to, or will ever, stop global warming is a carbon/GHG tax with the proceeds paid to citizens/residents as a dividend. Demonic warmongering for losing wars, along with the divisiveness it invites for inflation and attacks against the economy, with more oligarchist and zionist supremacism as the winning solution is necessary to make you more miserable, and in your misery, lose all concern for human sustainability while consumed with anxiety over your near term future.
Back to adaptation, perhaps a politically relevant class is relatively wealthy residents of Phoenix. Should “we” give them free homes somewhere that is not an abomination to humanity? Compared to trucking desalinated water into Phoenix for 200 years, digging them a canal from the Great lakes would be a bargain. Florida coastal home owners vote in what is sometimes a swing state… should we build them a sea wall for entire state?
Surely, with electric bills set to soar 300% because we politically require all the AI datacenters to bring skynet surveilance state that ensures skynet support (or China wins), cannot tolerate an extra 10% electricity increase to subsidize the poor’s access to AC, since Skynet will make the poor unneeded anyway.
The problem with supporting adaptation, is that you give the politically relevant classes a lifeline to support continued climate terrorism. The lifeline being that they will get bailed out after we are finishing arguing about who deserves to survive/be bailed out.
The other issue with adaptation, is that it financially costs less to mitigate worsening than it does spending on ever increasing adaptation. Even if you win political support for the stupid option, it is still smarter/cheaper to mitigate instead.

There will be adaptation either way. It’s still lame to shift agenda to “subsidizing adaptation” to support it getting even worse. Our current adaptation path
See. No need to worry about there not being an adapting strategy. The part about cutting forest fire mitigation and FEMA budgets doesn’t quite make sense, except for boosting insurance premiums.


I don’t understand the methodology at all. Genetic analysis of a mother’s babies would show “monogamy” if the alpha male in the herd keeps their status in multiple seasons. The typical polygamy relationship counts as monogamous, afaiu. Could it simply be that sheep change their alpha male each season, instead of everybody fucking everybody rules?


is it possible to back up an esim to a computer file (USB) and then restore it on a new phone?


Should you evacuate orphanages from war zones, and if so, make sure you leave the few ethnic Ukrainian orphans alone in the warzone streets? That is the BS nonsense you demons need to fuck off with.


The 2014 coup (US funded with US rulership selection) resulted in appointments from literal nazi parties who view Ukraine as a loser in WW2 (Much of east volunteered for SS divisions, genocided villages of non Ukrainians, administered extermination camps), and upon receiving rulership power immediately provoked Russia into war with pure nazi supremacist laws ethnic cleansing of regions opposing the nazi laws, and cancelling naval base leases. Western backing for this nazi regime since 2014 was admittedly and purely for provoking war with Russia, and corrupt nazi puppets forcing the loss of their country and deaths of their people because they are paid to. Zelensky’s winning campaign was a nazi-lite and anti-nazi one, and won because Ukrainians were sick of the evil corruption. He since have claimed proudly that it was all a lie to provoke war with more embezzling demonic western aid instead.


Recognize that you have an anti-Tankie mindset. One where its important to side with your Nazi CIA rulership’s narrative that is only interested in promoting their fascist evil supremacy by diminishing others.
Even if propaganda is involved when it comes to Tiananmen Square, it doesn’t change the atrocities that were/are committed everywhere else in China.
Mao definitely went over the top with a purge, IMO. The Chinese narrative for the event 40 years ago now, is they put down a riot. Don’t think you are capable of invalidating that narrative when you also say “it doesn’t change the atrocities that were/are committed everywhere else in China.” which happens to be more falsifiable CIA propaganda and terrorism.
The problem with the anti-Tankie mindset, that innevitably includes calling everyone who corrects Nazi CIA lies a tankie, is that your are siding with corrupt oppressive regimes who are stealing your prosperity, and against governments genuinely trying and improving their people’s lives. When you permit divisive and fraudulent speech, CIA/oligarchist speech is louder than all other speech, Nazi/CIA puppets gain rulership to oppress people for CIA backed corporatist supremacy over them.
In anarchist context, the Paris commune is a real world exemplary ideal. It’s eventual failure was from insufficient security and control over divisiveness, which in real world, invited demonic oligarchism to infiltrate and sabotage it, while gaining narrative for their jack booted thugs to come in to destroy it for good.


Ukraine has wanted peace since day 1
Pure lies. They spent 8 years ethnically cleansing Russian minority while Russia pushed for peace deals (Minsk accords). They escallated when Russia said there was no other choice than SMO. They faked acceptance of peace to get Russia to leave Kyiv siege, while Boris Johnson told them to keep their suicide path. They sabotage every other peace initiative since. The level of brainwashed demonic enthusiasm in west has never been higher.


West is propagandized for Russophobia supporting a nazi puppet corrupt regime in a proxy war on Russia. That Russian students are taught the truth of the most demonic evil war in history… where at least Napoleon/Hitler were independent actors attempting greater empire ambitions for National supremacy, instead of a corrupt evil forcing the suicide of his people only for colonial service to puppetmaster’s vision that this would diminish Russia.
Most of the west is abject morons for believing the lie that Russia is the one who provoked this war, or that the key to their happiness is a war on Russia. OP is pathethic demonic evil pretending that Russia should accept being destroyed or diminished, and educate that acceptance instead of the truth of demonic intentions towards it.


99.999%+ write down. Not just Cybertruck sales collapse sign, it is evidence that Tesla has no other plans for its “wonder battery”


other follow up, “would you prefer higher unemployment and recession while waiting for adorable and loving US partners to invest and manage our resources?”


Excluding US ownership, of course, because most Canadians are total imbeciles. Need to stop treating corporations as having some patriotic or values qualities. Canada needs investment. Stop caring where it comes from, but especially demand good deals for Canadians in terms of mineral rights/royalties.

Polar vortex related, where vortex in 2 directions. Heat moves up to where the cold moves down. Still, this is a big record for darkest time of the year, and global warming makes the polar vortexes stronger.


Energy density is an important one, but there is also high voltage sag, and overstated capacity if you need a high draw at lower remaining voltage.
OpenAI issued press release for hiring an ethics/guardrails officer. But the real job will be to validate fuckery, as the billionaire family member hired to pull the plug, will actually be there to prevent anyone from pulling the plug.
There are USB ones now, including heated clothing/scarves
