This fucking dude could have spent <$1M hiring a small team to spin up a heavily customized X-branded Mastodon server, but instead he spent $44 BILLION dollars buying and ruining Twitter.
How fucking crazy is that? That's fucking crazy... right?
this is the guy who decided to build a tunnel under LA to skip traffic and then instead built one in las vegas that gets traffic jams
wait he actually built that?
Got any sources for that? I've never seen anyone claim it's a success
So they passed the tests they set for capacity? Eh, not really impressed. Thanks though.
Is it better than a light rail system, or would that not help sell enough products from a company owned by Musk?
What is the capacity of the Vegas loop as compared to, say, an extra small subway or even an aboveground streetcar?
Given the short distance it goes and the fact that it has human drivers currently...I'm doubtful it's going to scale at all. In its current iteration, a small train would have been better in just about every way. I wouldn't praise it for what it will be, praise it for what it is, because Elon Musk loves to promise the moon and stars and not deliver on those promises.
If I recall correctly, you tried to "hold me accountable" by claiming I was slandering him and coming up with lies, when in fact none of what I said was even a lie. In fact, you even said yourself that it gets backed up "sometimes," which is what I mean by traffic jams.
It sounds to me like you need to learn what the word slander, actually means. Also, I reported this because it's rude as hell.
You are making a mountain out of a molehill and cherry picking gripes. I am done with this shit.
Good. People like you are not welcome here
