Rich people weren't the only ones affected by his fraud.

I've been using Rocket Money. It has mostly the same functionality as Mint, but seems to work a lot better. It also doesn't wait 5 days to notify me of deposits like Mint does.

Let's bring it down to $19.00.

Discard or datcard?

lmao what an absolutely moronic take.

Yep, it's just one more reason on the ever-growing list. I'm getting out of this failed state as soon as I can.

I love this logic.

How do we fix traffic in our city? Add another lane to the freeway. Okay, but to do that we'll need to shut down 3 of the 4 existing lanes for traffic. During rush hour, of course. Yes, the traffic will be even worse during this time, but we'll have the traffic fixed once the new lane opens up! We project that the construction will be finished in 5 years. But rest assured, it'll take 10 years. And that new lane will be a toll lane, so nobody will even be using it.

Austin is an absolutely terrible city when it comes to this sort of nonsense.

Isaacson writes that Musk reportedly panicked when he heard about the planned Ukrainian attack, which was using Starlink satellites to guide six drones packed with explosives towards the Crimea coast.

After speaking to the Russian ambassador to the United States — who reportedly told him an attack on Crimea would trigger a nuclear response — Musk took matters into his own hands and ordered his engineers to turn off Starlink coverage “within 100 kilometers of the Crimean coast.”

This caused the drones to lose connectivity and wash “ashore harmlessly,” effectively sabotaging the offensive mission.

Ukraine’s reaction was immediate: Officials frantically called Musk and asked him to turn the service back on, telling him that the “drone subs were crucial to their fight for freedom.”

They had access. Musk revoked it from the Crimea region after the fact.

They had previously had access, and then were denied further access by geofencing critical regions. That's effectively the same as having services cut off.

And yet, warning signs are still ignored by most people, and travesties like this continue to occur almost daily in this country.

I'd argue that we don't know as much as we'd like to think we do.

Tell that to the Ukranian soldiers who had their Starlink access cut off during a critical moment in the war with Russia or to the people injured/killed by Tesla's half-baked autopilot that Elon refuses to admit is not safe for public use, both of which are decisions spearheaded by Elon, directly.
