I thought he built a giant complex for all the moms and kids to live together with him?
Yup I‘d heard something along those lines as well. |

I think I must have lived in countries with much smaller homes on average. I can't even imagine what a 650 square meter home looks like. It's over six times larger than my home now.
There must be so much room for activities |

So...a "fun" reminder about the wealth gap. If you're in the top 0.1% of wealth in the US, you're still closer to homeless than you are to the billionaire+ class. A source I found puts the top 0.1% at $64 million net worth (link) And the difference between 64 million and a billion is about a billion.
Maybe closer on the chart, but you can't pretend that the actual lived experiences between homelessness and $64 million in the bank aren't almost as different as they can possibly get. |

WHO CARES. This fuck can buy a new identical house every hour of every day for the rest of his greedy life and still be disgustingly rich on his deathbed. I genuinely don't think people comprehend how much money this sociopathic narcissist has. |

How relatable, being able to not care about what precisely you are buying and how much it costs and letting an AI just spend a few hundred dollars without you even knowing whatever the hell it was. If trying to show getting a gift, way to show that thoughfulness of fobbing off the whole process to a bot. |

Hey. Do NOT let Elon have the funny numbers. They're mine, you joyless dweeb! 69 420 1312 666 1337 5318008 <-- this is where I keep them, feel free to borrow a couple or share more
Oh I had to look up 1312 - checks out as a good number. |

Nothing wrong with that. At least his neighbours don't have to see the misshapen dweeb hanging out at his pool.
I think they're probably more annoyed by the fact that it doesn't appear to actually be used as a private domicile and it's fucking up the scenery and inviting a lot of noise pollution and traffic that wasn't there before. Also a bit of a dick move to just ignore all the local ordinances everyone else there is abiding by. Like a 6 foot fence is quite different than a 16 foot one. God I wish I could see Musk in a guillotine. That's the public execution I'd like to watch. |

The lived experience is definitely very different. But if the wealthiest group was only worth hundreds of millions, we might be able to avoid having any homeless. I posted because people tend to have trouble internalizing just how big the wealth gap actually is. The brain can't really conceptualize how big a "million", "billion", or "trillion" actually is. It leads to a lot of misconceptions (another example, national budgets). I hope little nuggets like this will stick in people's brains to help them engage better with large numbers. Edit: here's more data on the wealth gap According to one source I found, there are 996 US billionaire+ that control $9.5 trillion. The bottom half controls $4.3 trillion. If we pretend that 171,469,137 people are able to organize to the same degree as 996 people, and that those 171,469,137 people don't need to cover necessities with their wealth, the billionaire+ still have an outsized financial impact on politics and power structures.

Does this even appeal to anyone? "We can automate the only part of consumer capitalism that's any fun?" Seriously? Billionaires have so much money they literally can't spend it all. A bot could blow $100K on their behalf and they could laugh it off as a funny story. They've worked very hard to divorce their fate from the fate of the general public, that has worked, and it shows in ways they don...
I mean... Shopping for parts and materials is usually my least favorite part of any project, conceptually not having to deal with that sounds great if I didn't have negative trust in the mechanism. If you find it fun, maybe we should team up! |

From Zillow: This 6934 square foot single family home has 6 bedrooms and 7.0 bathrooms. Fucking hell. That's nearly 650 square meters, larger than every home I've ever lived in combined.
We rented an enormous house once when we had 6 kids living with us, and 2 more sometimes staying with us. 3,600 sq ft. Spacious as fuck even when 10 people were there. Unfortunately the landlord decided to sell it and kicked us out (apparently they can break a lease, we can't), but perfect timing as most of the kids were off to college or work. I can't imagine twice as big would be better? At some point it's just useless space. Our house now is about 1800 I think, and it feels big. |

Not about the utility bills. He owns a solar company and is supposedly championing a shift green energy. Seems like he would make solar a priority, but hasn’t because he’s a massive fucking hypocrite. |

That said, someone may have both experiences. It's extremely rare, but possible |

It was fun, there were always extra kids coming over and absolutely epic parties. We had just consolidated families so the kids were getting to know each other, they are close now and happy to have such a network of siblings. And yeah, several ADHD, but in such a big house there was room to hide out too. |

I guess I would counter that the sort of project you have in mind isn't likely to be part of what I'd call "consumer capitalism." You're building something as opposed to buying that thing. |

A small inconvenience for the parasite but this is the equivalent of slapping an ice cream cone out of this dweebs hand and I'm here for it. The more I think about it, guy should have just told customer service that one of his dozen kids got ahold of his credit card and to freeze any future orders lol. Lmao even. |

UT has its flaws in bending the knee to the powers that be. They killed the "woke" programs like women's studies and cracked down on the ability to protest. Austin does have outdoorsy stuff to do. There's the greenway and the parks. I guess the nature is not very integrated into the urbanized areas. This is because the urban planning is ass, as is the case in much of the USA. As for rights, yeah. Fuck the butchers of Nueces and their modern successors. |

It's more like I have to buy things so I can build/fix other things, and tbh kinda the main input I still require from "the system". Belts, bearings, seals, gaskets, relays, control boards, pumps, props, etc. Recent outboard motor refurb is a great example: a new one would be $5-8k, I spent ~$300 doing rings and bearings, new impeller, new seals everywhere, new zincs, new prop, fresh paint, new spark plugs. Still had to do a lot of shopping! Arguably more than the high roller who just buys a new motor, that's a low double digit number of parts vs one big thing Anyways it wasn't meant as an argument or some kind of rhetorical gotcha, more a long shot at making a new friend and not having to shop anymore lol. People have a lot of different ideas of fun, mine's closer to tearing something apart and seeing how it works than trying not to get ripped off while meeting material needs |
