What results? Being wealthy? Tons of people before him have accomplished the same thing. There's always a wealthiest man on earth, Musk isn't the first.

He hit a new high number for wealth, which is a normal expectation with continued economic growth and higher than expected inflation.

To me, results would be Telsa or X actually being profitable and having fundamentals that would support their wildly overvalued stock prices.

Good to know there's some context available if you want it. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Is there though?

I know this sounds sarcastic, but I'm genuinely curious as I have never used TikTok at all. It there any way to verify the stuff that's being shown? Do news accounts link to articles or any supporting information?

All I've ever really seen from people sharing stuff has been new typical meme stuff and AI generated crap that people keep sending me thinking it's real.

How can you tell if what you're seeing is real?

Reboots and remakes are the oldest complaints in Hollywood. I'm way more sick of seeing this ancient criticism rebooted every week as if there was ever a point in history in which Hollywood was full of original ideas.

Hint: it wasn't. Even the early days of movie making were absolutely dominated by movies made from books. Everything is a remake, rehash, retelling of some kind. That fact has no bearing on the quality of the media created. There are just as many shitty original films as there are shitty remakes, and plenty of sequels, remakes, reboots, and reimaginings that surpass the original inspiration.

Yeah, obviously. But that doesn't do my child a damn bit of good now does it?

Is that what you think people are worried about? Planetary death has never really been on the table, that's just the ignorant parroting things that were misunderstood.

Honestly, why isn't this just standard procedure for dealing with the dead? Especially if they're already being cremated. It's very weird to me that people are so pearl-clutchy about what happens to a dead body. I would much prefer mine goes to something helpful to someone over sitting on a mantle or frozen in a sterile box.

Obviously the consent part is a valid issue, I (somewhat begrudgingly) wouldn't want to force this on people with deep religious reasons to keep a body whole, but I'd have it be something you have to opt out of.

Honestly yeah that's even better. How great would it be to watch Chrome slowly die out while funneling money to fight climate change?

Seems like it allows a non profit to assume control of a company without having to pay out funds to actually purchase it. They apparently have to reinvest all profits back into the company rather than directly benefiting from it. Though the article does mention under the proposal, some unspecified portion of Chrome profits would go toward 'climate action', so there's some vague positive out of it.

Seems like it would be pretty great honestly, so I can't imagine it'll be accepted.

Connecting to characters in media is a great way to connect to your own feelings. It sounds like you're treating it like it takes away from reality somehow, but all media is a reflection of reality. People have a reaction to it because it connects to something in their life. If you haven't found things that resonate with you that's cool, but looking down on others for being emotionally open is unnecessary.

Every action has an equal opposite reaction...

Thankfully I already have for the most part. Unfortunately I'm stuck dual booting until I can find a way to run fusion 360 on Mint.
