Howabout SolarCity?
Totally fradulent demonstration.
Hyperloop?
Laughably stupid in concept, Musk pretends he invented the idea... he did not. Never amounted to anything, other than its actual real purpose: setting back high speed rail in California by a decade +.
Neuralink?
Hired the assistant to an actual pioneer in the field, possibly illegally replicated his work, proceeds to torture a bunch of pigs and monkeys to death, most of the original team bails, and currently has produced a brain implant that is no better than, and may actually be worse than existing brain implants designed to help parapalegics and those with serious nervous system disorders, etc.
Rewriting history to pretend he actually founded Tesla?
Saying he's going to put cold gas thrusters in Teslas to make flying cars?
The Tesla Semi being a shitshow of false promises that were not delivered on?
All of the insane nonsense around BFR, now Starship+Superheavy?
Oh yeah, I'm still waiting to catch my reusable ICBM trip from Seattle to Tokyo, where the ICBM will be ready to go again in 2 hrs.
Starlink sats fail at such a high rate they are now about 90% of all known orbital debris that could endanger aircraft or the ground.
Starting out saying AI is a potential grave threat, being a skeptic, then suddenly doing an aboutface when maybe he can make more money by ... doing exactly what he'd warned against, barreling forward, developing it without extreme caution?
He's been an obvious con artist for at least half a decade now, more like a solid decade, purely from anyone just looking at his actual 'business acumen', ignoring all of his personal views or opinions of a political nature.
... But he developed a cult of personality around him, a whole bunch of emasculated, aggreived male dorks looking for the dork messiah, just believing Elon was personally the man who would transform today into the tomorrow of our dreams from the 80s and 90s.
Very few people actually stopped to check if his math actually mathed, and when they did check, and found it to be very, very sketchy at best... well Elon's fanboys and bot armies harassed them mercilessly.
It is a condemnation of the general public, all society, that it took until Elon just overtly became a goddamned supervillain Nazi Lex Luthor President for the general sentiment toward Elon to actually go negative.
Any one of those is damning enough to show he's a snake oil "idea guy" and a terrible leader, and you threw in the whole works with the kitchen sink. Well done.
A couple more that might be worth mentioning:
Also very good ones.
I'll throw in one more: At one point he went on an arc or 'era' on Twitter of using Deus Ex avatars and memes.
He thinks he is JC, when in reality, he's a more pathetic, attention seeking and far less competent Bob Page.
He is the ultimate poser, and I hope he crash lands on Mars and never comes back.
... what do you want to bet he never even realized you can save Paul?
Core memory unlocked! Thanks for that nostalgia hit. What a fantastic game
You know what you have to do now.
Hehe!
If you have the Steam version, the Deus Ex Revision mod is basically now the de facto megamod that includes a whole bunch of the most popular mods and more, with a whole whole bunch of toggleable mix and match options.
It must be done!!
Thanks for the heads up about the steam version. I've been thinking about getting a steam deck, this might push me over the edge
I only have a single gripe with the steam deck:
The way your thumbs work on the trackpads.
Basically... if you use your pointer finger, as if they were laptop touch pads... they work 100%, super great.
But... when you use your thumb... the angle your thumb is at functionally offsets your ability to go beyond about 80 to 90 % of the input register of the left edge of the right pad, or right edge of the left pad.
This means edge spinning (analagous to holding a joycon max in a direction for max rotation speed) seems greatly lessened on those sides, and it seems like a right thumb can turn faster to the right than to the left.
What valve needs to do is add another config option that basically allows you to... not just resize the extent of the 'edge' zone, but to recenter it, to actually shift it left and right, possibly up and down as well.
Theres nothing wrong with the hardware, and it works perfectly when your finger is perpendicular to a pad, but it does this weirdness when using your thumb, at an angle, unless you have very spindly thumbs with a very claw like grip.
But other than that, vanilla DX runs pretty well on a Deck, and oh I forgot to mention Revision adds in more support for different resolutions and HUD scaling.
