Literally Elon Musk rn
@Shake1n1bake I get that people fear technology, and they probably should, but just because someone wrote a book predicting a bad torment nexus (and lots of tech advancements are not that hard to predict), doesn’t automatically mean that a good torment nexus isn’t possible. Tech has many uses.
@JoshBoeke ok, but Elon is not a man I trust to invent "the Torment Nexus but good"
@Shake1n1bake Maybe not, but I see this sort of stuff a lot around VR. Neal Stephenson wrote a book about how VR could be bad so lots of people just think “VR is bad” when the tech itself is largely agnostic and the dude was writing a story not predicting the actual future.
@JoshBoeke @Shake1n1bake Plus the government cut him off of the corporate welfare. People shit on gm and ford. Their tolerances and craftsmanship is at world class which is a ridiculous low error rate. Every Tesla I’ve ever seen the caps in every part of the car are either too wide and or little gap.
