For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

This stock photo upsets me. It's not AI because AI would be wrong and terrible in excitingly DIFFERENT ways.
American currency is simply not printed that way.
The serial numbers are applied in a separate pass, after printing is completed. And they won't all be the same.
The notes are printed in sheets with a flat plate, not a newspaper-style continuous roll.
Come on. Thry literally do public tours where you can see the process. It's free. Send someone down with a Nikon if you have to. There's no reason to be this wrong on something this trivial.
However, you can buy full sheets of currency (edit: from the bureau of printing and engraving) that are for novelty purposes and the way they get around it is all of the serial numbers are the same. So they do actually print full sheets where all the serial numbers are the same. The only reason I know that is my grandfather had one. Supposedly the reason was if you happen to cut it yourself you "could only use one of them".
