And there’s always the chance the Twitter deal itself could end up being a good investment.

There’s this thing called “due diligence.”  Ignore it at your peril.

So we had the dot-com bubble, the south sea bubble, the housing bubble... I still don’t know if this is going to be called the AI-bubble or the Tesla-bubble.

Goddamn this was awesome. “Jalopnik incorporating some of the best elements of OG Deadspin” is legit my favorite writing style around now and I wish I had this kind of freedom with my writing gig.

Musk is rich

Gosh, all these very very very very rich people and yet they need other people’s money to pay for stuff (see also: Trump, Donald, circa 2015: “I won’t need campaign donations...”).

Masterful gambit, sir.

Can somebody gift Elon some sharp objects. 

I assume it’s costing them even more money now with interest rates higher. They could have reissued that debt capacity to other more recently for better interest rate returns, but are stuck taking the historically lower interest rate payments from Musk. So even though he’s making the agreed payments, the banks are

He could have put in a lot more batman crap if he had not bought all those other places to sit. It’s not like he has anyone coming over that needs to sit too.

I once did a tour of a Bavarian Castle that was half built (Herrenchiemsee Palace). It made this place seem like a taupe suburban home.

That place has “sad and lonely” written all over it.

More proof that money can’t buy taste.

There’s a lot to hate here, but the fine marble pedestal supporting a stripper pole really takes the cake.

Obviously Toyota isn’t going to release a hydrogen-powered car with a tank that can just explode when a Mirai driver inevitably crashes their car.

Can you adjust the title, please Bradders, because a IED from a Hydrogen explosive is a very different thing from an actual Hydrogen Bomb. Less... world end-y, shall we say.And my cold War raised heart almost stopped when I saw that.
