      Either we get to see a billionaire humiliate itself, or we get to see a billionaire humiliate another billionaire.

      And I guess some horrors beyond comprehension but it’s 2025 I’m pretty sure my toothbrush instantiates some of those when I agree to the new license agreement every night.

      That was musks business ethos applied to medicine. The dbs system I’m familiar with did not have heaps of dead monkeys.

    By the look of the thumbnail, he's already ahead of the Neuralink.

      Musk’s strategy is to constantly build hype and gain investments by promising something will be “ready by next year”, even if it’s nowhere close to ready. And then, when those investors start pressuring him about timelines, he pushes a half-baked, low-quality dumpster fire out the door.

      It’s hard to fuck up worse than that. And to Newell’s credit, he’s run Valve in the exact opposite way that Musk runs his companies: waiting until they have a working product before saying anything.

      As will the lawyers who handle his sexual harassment defenses.

        Can you imagine having to pay your sexual assault attorney because you assaulted them? I can’t, but I think I know who can
