if you order elon musk from wish, you get something better

[-] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 75 points 7 months ago

Is this the 2024 version of chuck norris jokes

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 74 points 7 months ago

Once a cobra bit elon's leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died of burnout.

[-] Black616Angel@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 7 months ago

Elon doesn't buy honey, he chews out workers.

[-] henfredemars@infosec.pub 35 points 7 months ago

If Elon buys out your company, it will be so successful that your revenue rolls over and you actually lose money.

[-] hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 7 months ago

I thought Elon is what you get when ordering Tony Stark from Wish but this is better.

[-] knightmare1147@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

This is my new favorite insult.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 99 points 7 months ago

I'm glad almost no one calls him a genius anymore.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 62 points 7 months ago

Only the same people who call Trump a genius do now.

[-] random_character_a@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Just guessing that both geniuses sniff the same stuff. They seem to get same kind of shitfits.

[-] knightmare1147@lemmy.world 22 points 7 months ago

My parents still do. They can't fathom that a billionaire could be anything but a genius to aspire towards.

[-] Holyhandgrenade@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

He tried really hard to be called the "real life Tony Stark" and he was successful until, idk, he fired his publicist? Whoever that was did a hell of a job making this moron look smart

[-] GrundlButter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 7 months ago

I bet that publicist quit the day he called the diver who rescued those kids in Thailand a "pedo guy". That or he just got really lucky without a publicist for a long time until his opinions started being more important than his image or success.

[-] Avatar_of_Self@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

If he didn't have an unfiltered public forum, people would probably still think that he is some eccentric genius.

[-] Naz@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

Remember, this is why your party needs the Bard. It's not because of the Lute. ;)

[-] hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 7 months ago

Almost no one in your bubble/perception unfortunately. There are still lots of people that are only aware of him being a POS but still think he’s a genius.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

He's clearly smart. That's because he has a lot of money. Only smart people have money and the more money you have the more smarter you get.

[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Fuck TIL I am dumb as a rock

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Don't worry. Hit the slots and you might get smarter.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 76 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I guess I don't have to believe in gasses or vacuums. I can't see them. They're not real.

I also can't see billionaires money. I guess they're actually just broke bitches. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 43 points 7 months ago

ATOMS are a lie told by the WOKE MIND VIRUS.

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 21 points 7 months ago

Gluons made the giraffes gay.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 7 points 7 months ago

It is all about that Upsilon grindstone.

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 6 points 7 months ago

And fucking magnets. How do they work?

[-] genuineparts@infosec.pub 4 points 7 months ago

For some reason I read glasses and in my mind I was: "Well I usually don't notice when I wear my glasses so it does makes sense..."
Maybe I need new ones...

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

I mean, you never had to believe in gasses or vacuum. They're real, so they don't depend on your belief or lack thereof.

"Reality is that which doesn't disappear when you stop believing in it"

[-] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

I read this as grasses and vacuums as in vacuum cleaners at first and was like ????

[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 70 points 7 months ago

So how many minutes did it take before his account was perma banned.

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Genius move really

/s

[-] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 56 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Like when he said that the CyberTruck beat a ~~Porche~~ Porsche 911 in a quarter mile whilst towing a ~~Porche~~ Porsche 911, but Engineering Explained did the math and called BS. Then backed up the math by actually doing the quarter mile to prove it.

[-] hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 7 months ago

It’s Porsche. Sorry to be that guy but that bothers me.

[-] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

No I’m happy to be corrected. I actually don’t know what’s come over me as a pedant myself, I should be ashamed.

[-] Somethingcheezie@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

I read that a few times…is he saying Porsches break down a lot so ya the truck would win. But then I noticed the spellings. So ya a cyber truck would beat a Porche, they’re cheap knock offs of Porsches

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago

The entire gimmick was "cybertruck is faster loaded with an entire car and towing it, than the car itself". They didn't mention they didn't go for the entire 1/4 mile. They didn't mention they cherrypicked the slowest Porsche there is. They didn't mention they lightened the trailer etc. It was 100% made in their favour, yet they still lost.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

IMO a lightened trailer is fair. It's really all about power to weight ratio. If a cyber truck could tow a car faster than that car can drive itself, then it means the power to weight ratio is that much higher. Torque also plays a role. They'd have to use a negative weight trailer for it's weight to change that.

Guessing they ran the numbers and realized the instant torque of the electric motor would give them an edge at the very beginning, based on the "didn't go the entire 1/4 mile" bit, which just means it takes less than 1/4 mile to make up for the higher torque in that particular scenario.

Also the skill of the drivers would play a role unless they set up an automated system (and tuned it right for both vehicles).

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

No, the marketing was "a tesla towing a porsche is faster on a 1/4 mile than the porsche". And then they only tested it up to 1/8th, and "extrapolated" that it would win 1/4. Which it didn't. It simply was false advertising, even with everything going "their way".

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Yeah, I don't disagree with the way you put it there, the only part I disagree with in your comment above is that using a lightweight trailer should be considered a part of the cheating.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Why isn't it part of cheating? You wouldn't be able to use that trailer on public roads. It's not that they used a lightweight trailer, it's that they took an already barebones trailer and then cut and hacked away at it to make it lighter.

Silly human. You used earthling mathematics. On Mars (where Lonnie is from), physics works a different way. See? Lonnie is the genius all his sycophants say he is.

[-] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 20 points 7 months ago

Is seeing is, explicitly, believing, then we need to talk about magicians.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Nevermind magicians. What about Photoshop?

watermarking a tweet in response to a tweet, neither of which are yours, is crazy

(i get it’s probably not you OP, ur good)

[-] dQw4w9WgXcQ@lemm.ee 14 points 7 months ago

This is how flat earth society was formed.

[-] Krauerking@lemy.lol 11 points 7 months ago

This is also how they keep proving themselves wrong in hilarious ways.
