Who cares, Musk will soon solve also those pesky problems by putting data centers in space, it is easy. Also next year FSD but for real this time. /s
I hate to sounds like I'm defending them... but that's like every startup. Taxi Pendants? Never heard of her - Uber/Lyft Gambling laws? Pssht - Polymarkets

The HN crowd that doesn't seem to get it is like that because they're either white collar criminals themselves, or they work for such criminals.

Did Musk even need approval? At the time weren't they both non-public companies pretty much entirely controlled by him personally?
But if you're talking about Musk himself, I'm not gonna stop you.
I don't like Elon Musk. I don't like Grok or xAI. Or X. Or Twitter before. I also don't like articles that try to bias readers with irrelevant details: > This includes Grok, which has thus far been involved in controversies including but not limited to: > Spreading antisemitic slurs and conspiracies while calling itself "Mecha-Hitler" > Creating widespread non-consensual nude images of primarily women and children >…
I stopped at "f*ck*ss". Irreverent drivel is unserious and a waste of time.

I mean it depends what you mean by "we". There are laws on the books to do so, they've just never been used against Epstein associates like Musk. We have a surface system of politics and laws, and then a deep system. Sovereign is he who decides on the exception.

Not really, its a valid way to manage ones time, because if you deem the message to not be I the quality you expect, you can just find a better article.
Sure, but you can hardly expect to interact with the world in a rational way if you explicitly decide to ignore it
Flipping it around: Can you tell me why I need to interact with such articles? What did I lose by not reading it? I can certainly tell you what I gained.
