I remember when Ford blocked Tesla from using the name "Model E" and elon was visibly upset, like the mental 6 year old he is, that the best he could do was S3XY. I chuckle about that pretty much every time I see a model 3.

He is certainly stuck in a teenage mindset. Like trump wanting Greenland because he didn't get his Nobel peace prize.

Seems to be a billionaire trait of being a wounded child and never getting over it.

In the case of Greenland, I suspect Miller and Thiel want it for their own purposes and Trump is so far gone they're just telling him something that will stick in his demented brain.

This is absolutely correct. Billionaires stroking the ego of a fucking narcissistic racist dipshit president to amass more is definitely going on.

Miller probably wants to build a gulag system with non-citizen and, let’s face it, probably a sprinkling of black and brown citizens as well, to do some slave labor resource extraction. Somebody read the One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and took it as a handbook and not a warning.

People stop growing once they gain enough power or ability to avoid it. Elon seems to really resonate with the people who don't have friends and live in their parents' basement because both have an adulthood defined by not needing to mature as an adult and not having the internal drive to do it anyways. Nobody can make him feel ashamed for acting like an 18 year old because even if we shame him he can look at his wealth and justify why he's better than us.

is.. that why they are named that?!?!?

The model s, the model 3, the model x, the model y.... REALLY!>!>

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 26 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It is at least why the model Y and the model 3 got their names. I think the model S was named by Tesla's founders and the X may be just because musk has been obsessed with naming things that since PayPal (if not before).

The 3 was supposed to be an E but but Ford owned the naming rights.

[–] CanadianCorhen@lemmy.ca 21 points 5 days ago

But the goal was to make.. the naming was supposed to spell out SEXY... that's so embarrassing.

he "peaked" as a 12yo.

Its not terribly often that I agree with Ford... Jesus Musk sucks.

these decades will be remembered as "that time when merely being a soulless corporation was a good thing"

"If Books Could Kill" podcast has 2 episodes looking at a biography book on Elon. Its amusing to listen to.
