I hear tell that several of those companies have entire departments solely dedicated just to distract Musk with bullshit when he visits, so he doesn't attempt to do any "work".

Musk showing up to perform work is how we get things like "Human eyes don't have LIDAR so a Tesla doesn't need it either".

Love my guy George. Listening to Cardboard Castles got me through a really rough time in my life and I don't expect to ever be able to repay it. Least I can do is to spread the word.

What would be the difference at this point?

Professional clarity and honesty.

Though, to be fair, if honesty were a requirement of being a Supreme Court Justice then Clarence Thomas would have been squarely out on his ass many, many years ago.

Braindead former humans wander the land aimlessly and cause huge problems for everyone else.

They're the same picture

This is almost certainly doomsaying, but:

This is exactly what a company would do if they were planning to kill the project and then hire the authors.

Even I don't really believe that's the case. But I am so far beyond giving any corporation any benefit of any doubt these days.

If your hardware is lower end it isn't useless. If I skip that then I get pretty bad stuttering in some games when new things are loaded in. If I let them cook in advance then that doesn't happen.

If your GPU is good enough (or your game potato-friendly enough) to compute shaders on the fly without issue then yeah it's pretty much useless.

Steve Bannon, as much of a piece of shit as he is, had a good plan and executed it well. He's talked about it openly. This has been brewing for decades, at least.

That's essentially how they wrote the song, so yeah! I can see it. I'd watch this.

Watsky, et al - Exquisite Corpse

For best results this should be cheesy B-movie as hell, the song really leans into it I think

If you approach it with the right attitude it's not so bad. I view it the same way I do with fighting games. If I get smoked in an 82-0 losing streak that just means I had a great practice sesh with someone clearly better than me and I should be taking notes. As long as you keep agreeing to rematch me I'll keep losing and learning.

Oh I keep this one memorized.

[Mr. Madison,] What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I've successfully used this twice in DnD and once in real life.
