Db, you admit you don't read properly and that you decide facts on a whim. You don't engage...So why are you even here?


You say I make too many of the same points. But you don't even know what they are.


And your AI double standards are obvious, because others use AI. You only call me out, how bloody convenient.


You accuse me of slanting, but I show sources. You show snide remarks.


So who is really full of shit??

I'm just here wondering how Musk makes any money at all.


Clearly the battery technology in Tesla's is horrendous and overpriced. Space-X rips off poor people.


Elon, you swindler!

Okay M name one businessman who has ever been strongly involved with societal mega shifts in….payments, cars, space craft, AI and domestic power delivery. Name me one businessman that is associated in just 2 societal breakthroughs other than Musk.


It’s not hero worship, I doubt I’d find Elon particularly good company, it’s just being honest about what he’s accomplished.

Moz, the exercise was never comparison, but seeing both sides. Obsessive infatuation doesn't allow you to see both. You clearly love playing word ping pong, so what's the use.


Yes, DB, you have never really read anything on here, I know. All you ever do is chirp in with "Grrrr..!" and pass it off as insight. God forbid, you might have an opinion on something.

I've got lot's of opinions on many different topics and I express them regularly... I just don't care to explain them in detail to someone who's mind is made up to the contrary already...especially if you are going to ignore the point I making, put up a straw man and argue something else...waste of time.

Nope Bob...I'm not deceitful at all...and you should know that...not a fence sitter either, despite the accusations.

I never accused you of deceit ... I stated that you sounded two-faced .

two-faced

/too??f?st?/

adjective

Having two faces or surfaces.

Hypocritical or double-dealing; deceitful.


I'm straight up...you just don't like what I say...good luck with your new buddy M...he is clearly very honorable with no agenda...and always 100% truthful...and all his assumptions and assessments of the "facts" are spot on.

"Moz, the exercise was never comparison, but seeing both sides. Obsessive infatuation doesn't allow you to see both. You clearly love playing word ping pong, so what's the use."


I must admit, I'm obsessed.


I'm totally obsessed with innovation, intelligence, maverick mindsets and cutting across the grain, strong original opinions, stubbornness in the face of baying sheep, and winning.


More than anything, I'm obsessed with potential. The potential for things we don't know. The potential for human capability on a societal and individual basis. The potential for a good decision to swing a chart in totally the opposite direction...I'm here for all of it.


And it's why if anybody is trying something new or attempting to upwardly adjust the limits of their potential, I'll always support them.


Being obsessed with intelligent people that won't take no for an answer is simply a byproduct of being obsessed with potential.


...anything that seeks to limit potential can basically go fuck itself as far as I'm concerned.

Yep the initial enthusiasm has cooled….there may be some recovery as the stock has to be bought by index tracking funds. But the banks and speculators have made their money and Musk no doubt is thinking about something new.
