Is this before or after the teslas can drive themselves? /s

- or before or after he builds underground tunnels for Teslas across country?
Sounds like a great idea. Much easier to block the ends and trap them all in there.
And HYPERLOOP
Oh so the thing right wing loons like to say the Jews already do?
An yes weather control satalites. Has he been reading too many comspiracies?
Watched the None like it Hot episode of Futurama and liked Wernstrom's idea.
if einstein was still allive like in ra2, he wouldve created the weather machine.
He's cooked, pack it in. If we're lucky he'll fall in love with an AI pigeon and live out the rest of his days in squalor, which is the only part of Nicola Tesla's legacy he deserves.
He's fucking Grok, isn't he?
If he isn't yet, he's actively trying to figure out how.
Yes he is and if he isn't I don't care I now deem it to be the truth that he is.
That's amount of respect to reality that he deserves.
Guess they figured out how to bring scarcity to the solar market.
This dude is like some drugged out crazy guy ranting on a street corner.
Just some drugged out crazy guy manipulating entire governments to his increasingly unhinged whims.
That's not how weather works you moron.
Technically, physics does allow a satellite-based method to deal with climate change. Economics, on the other hand, does not. You would need to chuck an unfathomable amount of mass into orbit.
More interestingly, if he truly announced that idea, he'd have to be admitting climate change is real in the first place.
psst.. "climate"... and pray tell, which energy source do you think powers the atmosphere to exhibit weather or climate?
Geothermal? Tidal? Nuclear isotope decay in the core?
Can we not indulge into the fantasy of a wanna be super villain?
Actually, I'm just here to ridicule it
I'm here to turn a cart around in a narrow hallway
Didn't MGT specifically make fighting this lunacy her cause?
No, she's on a revenge kick because the rest of the neo nazis club she works for told her she's not allowed to run for Senate.
She's basically throwing a tantrum by being as "bad" as she can imagine, which ironically means doing her job to help the people she represents, but don't mistake it or empathy, she's just checking boxes
Not really, she's just trying to capture maga cult members who are going a stray. She's still a racist piece of garbage no matter who she picks a fight with.
Futurama did it first.
Alternative title: Ultra rich billionaire makes another idiotic suggestion
No, it will totally come. Right after his mars colony, self driving cars, hyper loop and robots. He could switch his drugs to crack to get even more done! /s
But this is a bad idea that shouldn't happen
I like the illustration. it's like his head is exploding out of sheer stupidity
Nice. Some shade to choke to death in.
Fuck off Elon. Nobody likes you.
Don't say that.
People constantly telling him that nobody likes him is how we got this megalomanic asshole in the first place. Like before he stole the idea for PayPal and was just getting in random fist fights with his brother, everybody seemed to hate him.
So like, it's true, but Jesus keep it down. He's probably got a ghost profile on Lemmy and uses it to virtually suck his own dick because it can't be done physically anymore.
"Elon, where do you get your brilliant ideas from?"
"Well, they just come to me. Because Im so brilliant."
"So not from other people that you then repackage ?
"No."
"You dont just buy companies, and slap an 'I made this' sticker on it?"
"Not from popular cartoons from over 20 years ago?"
".... go fuck yourself!"
Yes, why not let an emotionally fragile, egotistical maniac control the weather? What a good idea.
He just keeps getting more idiotic
We are going to build a wall around earth and make the aliens pay for it
... He does realize they can't just shit on international organizations like the UN and USAID and expect the rest of the world to follow them tow in line, right? Specially given this will affect those regions for whom climate change would actually be beneficial.
Anyway, this sounds more like a bullshit excuse to do nothing about the causes of climate change. This would have excessive costs of the solution and the maintenance that would likely have to be footed by society and not the people who do everything to avoid taxes like Musk. This would give polluters an excuse to pollute more and a way to put even more chokeholds around societies.
But even more fundamentally, climate change is due to things like carbon dioxide basically reflecting heat back onto the planet. Dampening sunlight doesn't just block heat, it dampens the entire electromagnetic spectrum. For a speculative solution you would be adding additional problems ecosystems would have to deal with.
How about narcissistic self-obsessed psychopaths stop trying to milk society for all they have as fast and much as possible? They can start by paying taxes and not engineering entire political programs to subvert democracies for personal gain.
Hey hey hey. Elon. 1-2-3-eyes on me. Ok? Listen little man. You have to put away all the toys you already got out before you start getting any more toys out. You made a big mess out there in low Earth orbit already, you need to help clean it up before you start any more games. Got-it got-it?
Yes, I know you don't want to, but sometimes we have to do things we don't want to. Yes, even if you took all of the play money for yourself.
Yes, I know your daddy owned an emerald mine. That doesn't mean you don't have a responsibility to help keep this whole place usable.
Also, while you're doing your cleanup, there's still a hole you dug in Las Vegas that you forgot about, and you also need to apologize to the rest of the class for breaking the government services they all enjoyed, and help everyone put them back together.
I know it's not going to be easy to fix them. That's why we don't break things, right? That's right. Especially when....? When we don't know what they're for, right. But you can do hard things, especially if you have help.
I know you fed it into a wood chipper, Elon. We all watched you do it. No, I don't think it's funny or epic.
Ok. Well if you aren't going to help clean up, I think we might need to have a consequence, ok? ...no, the consequence can not be going to Mars.
