How it is humorous? Or satire? Or Christian? Just a bunch of articles attacking people who are unable to defend themselves.

What's buzzing now? "BLM Founder Reminds Everyone Justice Won't Fully Be Served Until She Can Buy A 5th House." Oh yeah, it's funny that we have to start a movement to actually show people that Black Lives Matter because they don't believe these are just humans. To the point where we have daily shootings of innocent black people.

Hope it's helping you cope with how hard YOUR life is.

You're in the wrong room. If you're looking to have an argument, go next door to the door marked "Arguments".
 
In space, no one will hear Bezos and Musk’s workers call for basic rights | Robert Reich
I’m grateful to Musk for making electric cars and to Bezos for making it easy to order stuff online. But I wish they’d set better examples for protecting and lifting the people who do the work.It’s understandable that the super wealthy might wish to escape the gravitational pull of the rest of us. But there’s really no escape. If they’re serious about survival of the species, they need to act more responsibly toward working people here on terra firma.
 
I know someone who knows some of the key people at Neurolink personally. They have been pursuing this for a couple of decades, what Elon brings to the party is large bags of cash and increased attention.

The brain research world is very interesting. My partner has been doing neurofeedback to try and reverse a number of brain injuries. One of the top therapists for it happens to be in Vancouver, WA (the guy who knows the key people at Neurolink). Her case is so complex and her reactions so odd that he's been consulting with two top brain experts on her case. One thing that baffles them is how she can perform as an attorney, Psychological counselor, and most recently neurofeedback therapist in training while her brain map is that of someone in a coma.
Actually, Elon's contribution is MORE than just funding and attention - he concludes " .. for the first time in 20 years we are on the cusp of a new device that might be useful .. " in other words, developing this complete system, hardware, software, AI implementation, is a huge step beyond what existed before.

Professor Paul Nuyujukian MD, PhD (Brain-machine interface researcher) explains the Neuralink Monkey MindPong video and its significance for the fields of neuroengineering and systems neuroscience.

Reactions: mspohr and SO16

Now we learn that Tesla brought the Cybertruck prototype to its New York City store in the Meatpacking district:
It showed up in New York at the same time as the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, who is in town to host Saturday Night Live tomorrow.

Oh gawd, now all the articles about his SNL performance is that he outed himself by saying he has Asperger's. As if we didn't already know 😀

Monologue:

Anyways, he did great, IMHO. His skits were as funny as SNL gets (which usually isn't very funny). His monologue, while being read on a teleprompter (apparently most hosts do that), was well delivered and had some funny moments.

Some of the other skits are now available on that YouTube channel above. Here's the best that was posted by SNL:

Elon Explains Dogecoin:

Here's another good one:

I liked the Wario skit too.

Good grief! Elon's monologue was awkward and a bit painful to watch... way beyond Aspergers. ;)

Anonymous takes aim at Elon:


Like a big military, Elon has a big attack surface. Lots of ways hackers can attack him. Unlike many companies though, Tesla and SpaceX have so far proven pretty resilient to cyber attacks. It will be interesting indeed to see if anonymous is successful in any way.

Their manifesto in that video alternated between ok and clueless. Saying that Elon’s companies survive on government subsidies simply isn’t true. And that chestnut about Elon having a silver spoon in his mouth based on his fathers investment in an emerald mine is bullshit.

Anonymous, of course, loves crypto because that’s how hacking groups make money. They use crypto as a currency since it is untraceable. So all this “oh look you are ruining the lives of speculators” is really anonymous saying you are attacking *our* wealth. Elon should call out that particular point. Attack anonymous by pointing out anonymous has their own vested interests.

I don’t think much will come of this. Anonymous isn’t that powerful and isn’t centralized.
