Any amount of alcohol increases your risk of cancer: https://www.cancervic.org.au/cancer-information/preventing-c...

I don't think the same can be said for cannabis use

Musk says a lot that has no basis in fact.

He said he would open-source a "hyperloop patent" but that's dumb, as he didn't come up with it.

Why would you not accept legal tender over a certain amount? This isn't credit, it's physical money the government created. It should never be outlawed

What cities are supported? You say various cities, so I assume just the top 10 or something

Nothing. Paypal is corrupt as hell and will gladly steal people's money without reason or chance to respond.

Yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me.

This does not make me want to support record labels

Really depends if you live somewhere with seasons or not.

I tried that on my 3-core something back in the day. I was not one of the lucky ones.

Founders All Day IPA is like 4% if you can find it

Insurance costs more, at least where I live, if you admit you smoke.

States have different tax rates - I used to buy cartoons across the border in another state because it was way cheaper.

Is that a bad thing? That's just him maybe.

Ok, what about: Solar Roofs (fake roofs at demo https://gotmusked.com/content/solarcity-scam-fake-tiles/)

HyperLoop (Not a new idea, has existed for at least 50-60 years, earlier if you look at the atmospheric train)

Tesla Semi (tell us how much they can actually haul, elon)

Cyber Truck (Delayed, and not really very truck-like https://twitter.com/whatsinside/status/1628569254659518464)

Tesla Roadster

Working AI robot at AI day 2

He said they had full self driving back in 2018.

Spaceships to Mars by 2022 - https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/20/science/elon-musk-starshi...

> "As the name and design have changed, so have Mr. Musk’s overly optimistic predictions for when his spaceship would get to Mars. At Guadalajara, he said the first flight of the Interplanetary Transport System to Mars, carrying cargo but not people, would take off in 2022 and that the first flight with people could launch in 2024."

Most of his promises have no reality backing them

Wait...will I actually be able to plug my ancient Zune back in? I am pretty sure I have the cable yet.

Just hard to tell what's sarcasm on the internet now.

It will be vaporware, like 90% of what Elon offers.

That guy definitely likes it being those 100 sq miles

Well, he hasn't actually completed or shown the ability to complete transportation projects in a timely manner.

I wouldn't want Musk half-building something in my city and then just abandoning it

Very bad UX. Threads.net won't even load

Hmm I feel that explains a lot :(

Ah, fair. Wouldn't be the first time the US Gov't did that

yt-dlp is everywhere - why would they go after pypi and not the source at https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

And trusting your employees to be adults takes away a lot of those pointless middle-management positions

I can't find the documents/video but you can see that the self destruct explosives do indeed go off.

All that they do in starship is punch holes into the fuel tanks. Then, as soon as air mixes with the fuel in the correct ratio, boom.

However, there was too much pressure in the fuel system and it was jetting out so strongly that it appeared O2 wasn't mixing with the fuel.

After about 10 seconds you then see it explode.

Apple and Android both steal ideas from each other.

So he only likes misinformation if its actually the real him.

VPNs are illegal in China, but that doesn't stop a lot of them

I think it's a city? That's the best I can find. Don't know why saying a city name is bannable

Well in Michigan (where I am located) they are not allowed. I am pretty pessimistic and just assume there are fees I don't know about

I am not smart enough to know if that is already a thing or not...

I saw a post on here recently talking about how they got Paypal into court. I'll have to try and find it again.

Problem is, it's not worth whatever court costs I would probably incur. Granted, there isn't a lawyer involved in small claims, but could they judge order me pay their lawyer fees if I lose?
