I sure as hell hope it isn't a very dumb way to announce meta buying Twitter.

I doubt that. I think Zurg wants to eat Skum’s children in front of him.

I have no idea what they intend to accomplish with this, and don't really care. They should call this fight the entitled, spoiled man baby vs the spoiled, entitled baby man...which one will win? who the fuck cares, anyone that watches it loses...

I don’t care about the sporting event either. I’m looking at the larger game. I am speaking to the idea of Zurg trying to buy Twitter. I think he will try to destroy its value.

A fat monkey and a skinny monkey throwing shit at each other in a ring will accomplish that how?
Or is the fight some kind of weird rich asshole metaphor for something?
The whole thing just seems like a spectacle to draw people's attention away from something, but i have no idea what.

like I said, I don’t care about the sporting event. It strikes me as ego trip/atavistic dominance ritual.

The real combat is for social-media dominance. That is Zurg’s bread and butter, so I’ll be more interested to see his competing platform and how it does. I somewhat expect Skum to be stuck with a $44bn dead loss.

Not like i have a high opinion of zuckerberg, but he's better than muck.
I would personally like to see muck suffer huge and humiliating financial losses, that lead to the death of his "empire", and his fanboi's total abandonment of him.

the story is about his shitty self driving system that he refuses to abandon...

He will need government approval for self-driving, and they should make them turn on the 4-way flashers in a special pattern when in auto drive mode to let other drivers know they are dealing with a road zombie.

Batteries, range and charging time will make the biggest difference, self-driving is a gimmick at this point.

He's a serial bullshitter as well; roughly 100x difference between his numbers and NHTSA.

He's previously claimed (according to Tesla data) that FSD was 10x safer than human drivers:

Elon Musk claims that Tesla with Autopilot engaged approaches 10 times lower chance of accident than the average car. Here’s...

Reality says its 10x worse:

Elon Musk’s automatic driving technology seems to be roughly an order of magnitude more deadly than human drivers.

add efficiency: real-life miles per kWh. I don’t care for long range and fast charge if it still take$ 100 kWh to go 500 km.

If the choice was between Elon Musk or creepy Bill Gates, it'd be Elon hands down for me. Even if that means a neurolink, electric future, where we use Twitter wallets. Hands down better than a totalitarian WHO vaccination passport, social (carbon) credit score freedom-less future.....but that's just me.

After that "regulation stifles my submarine creativity" debacle...I'm stoked on another rich dickhead wanting to send other rich dickheads into life threatening situations.

We need to get Harlan crow on that thing stat.
