Elon Musk is a total fraud
One disastrous tweet has finally revealed Elon Musk for what he is: a fraud.
Enraged that a British cave diver called his idea to rescue the Thai soccer team for what it was — “a p.r. stunt [with] absolutely no chance of working” — Musk took to Twitter and called him a “pedo.”
Just like that, Tesla’s market value plummeted by $2 billion.
Musk has been in business since 2002. His stated goal is nothing short of transforming humanity through his products: his electric cars, space travel, and an underground high-speed Hyperloop system.
He has yet to succeed at anything but somehow spins every failure into proof of imminent success. His only accomplishment has been this decades-long Jedi mind trick.

The journalist no6513612321 who wants moustks or teslas death.sted - I don't get why you and chukka can even begin to think hes a fraud or a con-man. He's a bit of a prick, sure - but his track record is ..well not terrible.detritus
- hysterical - in the same way that the rush to call him a genius polymath / saviour of the planet was hysterical.Fax_Benson
- he just revealed himself to be a dickheadFax_Benson

Now We Know For Sure: Elon Musk Sucks Like All These Jackasses Suck
"I mean the stuff where Elon Musk called a child-rescuing hero a pedophile because he was upset that a half-ass submarine idea he had was useless."
- He's desperate. A couple weeks ago all the sani huts were locked due to non payment at the giga factory. lifts have been repo'd. He needs to get a china influxdeathboy
- of pre-order money to burn through or he's done.Hell asking contractors to do bidded projects for 50% of cost with promise of more in next round. Reminds medeathboy
- dotcom days and seeing first hand the hustlers of that era... No way as good as this guy, but same techniquesdeathboy
- I expect the guy to end up in jail for fraud. Still not even sue why the SEC will block a kodak bitcoin miner but not go after this guydeathboy
- _niko2
he felt butthurt because his submarine idea wouldn't work so he lashed out at one of the rescuers? lol
So highly trained rescue divers and seals had no idea what they were doing but Elon Musk did?
He also suggested an inflatable tunnel would work.
Then why not a time machine to go back to before the kids entered the cave?

- Any word on if it worked? I was able to see the rocket this morning from Laguna Hills in CA.lemmy_k

Triple-core thrust: 27 Merlin 1D engines power the Falcon Heavy
Costs about $1Mil each; which is pretty amazing for a heavy lifter.

Among MANY other things SpaceX got right with this, was the streaming broadcast, production, and how entertaining it all was. The little timeline along the youtube player was so simple, but really smart to do. Just watched it again, and FUCKING HELL THIS WAS COOL!

- Too bad that the most important and expensive portion of the rocket is lost.utopian
- Heard Musk say the centre core was being replaced anyway and the 2 boosters were more important. Possibly spin.BusterBoy
- They were all due to be retired before Block 5 cores come online - it was just the most important component to 'look at and check', not re-use.detritus

https://www.pscp.tv/…slappy - I bet this offsets Tesla’s carbon footprint. Seriously how much fuel was needed to get that in space. Doesn’t it cost like millions to get tiny satellites up?err
- you think the whole point of the launch was only to put a car into space? lolkona
- ^ That wasn't his point at all.Hayzilla
- apologies then. it was early and i should have read his comment twice.kona

I was swearing at the footage, convinced they'd duplicated one of the side boosters' feeds, because they both looked exactly the same to me... til the flame from its partner became evident in one of them.
So damn cool.
Can't wait to see the footage from other perspectives.

Ten minutes to liftoff. Go baby, go!
- Oh fuck me, have they brought it back forward?! Thank fuck I came home when I did! (!!!)detritus
- HOLY CRAP the two falcon rockets landing!GM278
- Thanks for posting, man - I would've been totally gutted if I'd missed that - I literally got home 5 minutes before reading your post!detritus

Crikey, I'd never seen this. Just imagine having no concept of what this is and seeing it in the sky overhead one night.

- Tesla going to Marsinv
- I initially thought this was a bit of a dick move — then I thought how cool it'd be for future space peoples to come across it floating around, wondering 'WTF?'detritus
- last launch footage was cool, eh inv? looking forward to the FH launch next year!
*fingers crossed*detritus - Either way, it will be spectacular!inv

Landing on the barge was incredible.
- yeah, I actually wooped and yelped when it happened - and i was in here on my own on Saturday working, no one to share the moment with, haha, weirdo.detritus
- I agree, great emotions at the moment of landing!uan
- I can go to my local grocers, buy a £10 phone controlled drone and make it land on my right testicle while watching eastenders. This shit isn't that impressivefadein11
